great soldier who leads our armies by any com.

predetermined predecessor. but we have one

chosen it. or TO adopt this to crafty the alleged
vanity or dislike of the President. no would not
be the General he is-cOld. selfreliant, indifIer-
ent to popular opinion, tenacious of his own
purpose. He went from Culpeper to the Will
derncss-as we have some reason to know
because no thought it the best way to go.
Events have abundsntly justified his choice.
II Is true, he has fought and maneuvercd his
way to tho south side Of the james by hard
work and with heavy losses; equally true that he
might have landed his army at Bermuda Hun
dred without tho loss Of man. Suppose he
had. Lees army also would have been in posi-
ton without the loss of man, and could either
have guarded tho railroads which Grant has
since destroyed. or have marched solid to
Washington by the route over which force
contemplate in numbers has just moved with diff
fculty. To have attacked Richmond from south
of tie James by water involved leaving great
army to defend Washington To attack 1t as
Grant now does. after successive conflicts which
destroyed tho offensive force and mobility OF
Lees army, is to secure permanently one great
object of the campaign. He has made it GER
tain that Leo cannot spare the men for an cf
iec.ive movement on Washington, and certain
that they cannot march if they could be spared.
From Richmond w the Potomac is desert
which 10 army can traverse, except on con-
dition of supplying its own food and the Rebel
Amy can scarcely get itself fed while lying in
the Petersburg trenches.
Nor is this all. 1t is probable the Rebels,
fighting behind intrenchments, have lost rather
less than the Union forces: but their loss is
irreparable, while ours is sure to be supplied.
We can afford TO lose five men to their three.
If for no other reason, the better care which our
men receive in hospitals returns them sooner to
the field and half makes up the difference. But
the prolongation Of the contest in that ratio
makes our final victory mathematcally certain.
Every battle, therefore, is an advantage.
Again, when Gen Grant said at Spottsyl-
yania that he proposed TO fight it out on that
line if it took all Summer, he meant what he
said. and he has done all that lie meant. A
transfer of his army to the south bank of the
James was contemplated from the start, and
Gen Butler had orders with reference TO that
purpose-which he more than obeyed, we may
remark Gen. Grant is now where he expected
to be, satisfied with the progress OF his cam
paign. and, as he said a week ago, never at any
moment was more sure of taking Vicksburg
than be now is of taking Richmond. The
country will res, content in his Judgment

PEACE EFFORTS.

The Ecening Post argues, with somewhat
less than the eminent courtesy that usually
distinguishes that journal, that all demonstra-
tons looking to Peace on the National side are
foolish and futile, because the Rebel peace
mOngers are insincere and tricky, and because

Let us, for the arguments sake, admit The
Posts premises, and from that platform consider
the justice and force of its conclusons
When Horace Waipole, on his return from
Rome, was asked if he had converted the Pope
he candidly confessed that he had not adding
by way Of explanation, that he was unable to
offer that gentleman anything better than he
already possessed. For kindred and obvious
reason, Jefferson Davis is naturally the very last
man in the Confederacy to consent to a restora-
ton of the Union on whatever terms. For he
is now one of the pOtentates of earth, ruling
with despotic sway spacious empire and seve-
raj millions Of human beings; and there is no
conceivable at least no tolerable reconstruction
which would not seriously diminish his power
and consequence. lie, PROFESSIONALLY, is
fighting for independence which, in his in
dividusl case, includes everything else-since he

reconstruction" it will be because he has no
alternative.
Now, then, we will suppose that the exchange
of notes at Niagara had resulted in the appear
upon their assurance that they had (or would
promptly obtain) full powers to propose and &C.
cept terms Of peace. OF course, they would
have been morally and every way bound to
prcfsr such terms-our Government simply
standing still and requiring light upon any point
which those terms did not make clear. Sup
pose, then. that, thus brought to book, Davis
had instructed them to say, 1--WE demand inde-
pendence, and will make no treaty that does not
concede it," would not that demand, thus un-
mistakaOly authenticated, have been worth TO
