doubtcdly moving on either Charles

sonyille, where, if successful, a great
victory will De achieved in the release
Of Union prisoners. Most cheering
news may be expected from his COM
mand at any time. Grant still main
tains his impregnable position on the
outskirts of Richmond. From the ac-
ton Of rebel troops, an attack on

event, Grant will be able to repnlse
the force brought against linn, and
hold his position.
The canal is rapidly being complet-
ed, when a combined land and naval
attack, will, without question, be

The Grand Result.

ed to fully determine the re election
of Abraham Lincoln, by an Enprede
cented majority. Notwithstanding
the gigantic efforts of the opposition,
by fraud and the expenditure of treas
ure to an extent hitherto unparalleled
III the Nations political history, the
union cause has achieved victory
that must forever silence the lecher-
Gus traitors, whose whole aim was the
complete destruction Of the American
Republic, under the guise of loyalty
and adherence to the constitution
They are dumbfounded, bcwildcred
and the last ray of hope which tend
cd to buoy their sinking expectation,
has been quenched by the almost
unanimous verdict of the American
people, that "The Union must and
shall be preserved" The amount of
treasure expended by Belmont and
his coadjutors, and which has flowed
from the Golfers of the Rothschilds at
his behest, in q continuous stream, has
failed to corrupt the staunch patriot
ism of the American people. The
amount expended in the great states
of New York and Pennsylvania alone,
reaches millions; and every dollar
thus expended, was intended to en-
hance the value of confederate bonds,
by defeating Abraham Lincoln, and
placing in his stead, as the executive
of the nation, Geo. b. Mcclellan, the
mouth piece of treason, and the crea-
ture OF the -ohoice of such men as
Nallandigham, Wood, Long, Noor-
hees, Seymosr aad Cox.
Had Mcclellan been elected. the
bonds of the Confederate States,
which the Rothchilds held and con-
trol to the extent of nine-tenths of the
whole issue, would have increased III
value III the markets in Europe, and
III the same ratio would L. S. Govern
ment securities have decreased. Gold
would have reached a figure most dis
astrous TO mercantile pursuits, while
government paper would have been
rendered comparatively worthless.
But a catastrophe SO disastrous to
the dignity ofthe nation its commer-
cial and tinanaial interests, was not to
occur. The evil designs Of traitors
at home and abroad, have been
thwarted, and the Great Republic
stands firm on the immutable princi-
piles of right, enunciated and promal-
gated by its founders. OM''S has
been signal victory. Theirs a sig
nal defeat. The free states repudla-
ted the Chicago resolutions by major
ities ranging from 1000 to $1,000
Iowa gives $4,000; Free Maryland,
5000. The only state known to have
gone for Mcclellan, Is New Jersey,
which gives him 1900 maj,
Election day, as is generally the
case, was extremely disagreeable
throughout the nerth. The rain pour
ed in torrents all day, which tended
to decrease the Union majorities
thousands of votes. Had the dav
been fine, New York would have in
creased her majority ten thousand, at
least, and other states in proportion.
Seymour, for Governor OF n. Y, is
defeated-as is also Wood for Con.
gress. This alone is glory enough fol
one day. All the states gain Q u ior
congressman. The Mcclellan barf
has swamped ia deep water, and is {
hopeless wreck.

they supposed thata three months blockade

submission, and that an army of $4,000 men
would te sufficient to conquer and hold the en-
tire Southern region. We told them they would
want million of men, and spend thousands of
millions and yet only be upon the edge
of their fearful enterprise. Nearly two
millions OF men have been called for. and over
two thousand millions spent; anG who is there
having the slightest sagacity that does not know
that te-day the rebel armies are more defiant
and dangerous. than ever, and may protract the
war for years, to the utter and complete ruin Of
both sections. The public eredulity. however.
is still unbounded, and 1t will go on trusting and
being betrayed, as it has been for the last three
years, by set Of knaves whose only object is to
fatten upon the public plunder that such wars
engender, and to rise in the scale of wealth as
their oountry's honor and prosperity sinks
The day will come, however, when a betrayed
people will take AMPLE vengeance upon the
mock patriots who have deceived them to their
ruin. There never was q civil war that was
1ot followed by counter revolution, in which
ample atonement was demanded for the crimes,
md from the criminals that had engendered it.
These men may escape, being influenced by log.
cal conclusions; but, thank God, they cannot
oreyer escape the penalties Of their Infamous
rimes, and expressions; and that hour is near

THE FOLLY AND WICKEDNESS OF
CONTINUING THE WAR.
Extract from a Speech OF the Hon. James
w. Wall Delivered at Aeyport, n. j.
on the 22nd of February last.

*s* ~ Admitting that our arms had
been attended with all the success which the
most sanguine advocates of the war have flats
tered the country with, had the South been dis
posed from their defeats and suffering to sue
for peace. what city Of refuge has been open
for them. what horns of the altar could they
take hold on and be saved What explicit
terms short of degradation and dishonor worse
than death, have been proposed to them r
What security, Gnnocent and guilty. that they
should not be treated as conquered people,an
subject to whatever yoke their naughty vietors
might please to impose upon them2 lt would
be madness to expect that men who had taken
up arms so defantly and struggled SO courage
ously as the South have done, should throw
them down and submit to their conquerors, es-
pecally when they had so little to hope and so
much to fear. The only hope can be, and this
now, to my mind, is the faintest possible, ID
change of system.
Reverse all these absurd snd pernicious meas
ures that for three years have characterized
Northern legislation fer if the confidence and
affection we have lost is ever to be regained, 1t
can only be by giving the South the most unde-
niable proofs that we wish not to Cypress them;
that we are willing to remove every ground OF
complaint, and to afford the amplest security for
the enjoyment of all their constitutional prlVll-
eyes in the future. l waive all questions OF au'
thority and right With nearly million of men
slain or rendered useless, with frightful debt
of thousands of millions increasing at the rate
of two millions q day, and national ruin and
bankruptcy, the inevitable consequences of this
dreadful war, peace, speedy peace, should be our
object, and to accomplish this, repeal of those
obnoxious legislative acts is demanded, which
are an insurmonntable bar to reconciliation, and
have lost US the confidence and good will of
those who might have been really kindly dispo-
sed towards Us in the South. What greater fol-
" can there be than to expect to force people
into a friendly union with you, to entrust their
rights once more into your hands, and submit
their property and lives to your Government by
desolatinS their country and spreading famine
aud death over our landY And what are the
Ilaures acquired in this destructive warfare T.
I'VE have subdued not their armies, but the
small remains Of their affection to the country,
then reverence for its laws,and their confidence
in itsgenerosity. Neither the men in power,or
the raese pensioners of the hour who now cows
ardly sustain them and their policy, ever at
tempt to reason from the analogies OF history
We told then at the outset of the impractica-
bility of their task, and we tell them again that
their failures il the future will be even more
stupendous than they have been in the past
Ignorans Of the astual resources OF the South,
