From the Richmond Examiner, August %
To congratulate Cur readers every morrne
upon some brilliant success OF the Confederate
arms would: be, indeed, delightful, althouYb
monotonous. UnhapIily, such is not q, r.
privilege to-day The fighting of SUNDAY
south OF Petersburg has gone against US, snd
the possession OF the Weldon road yet remains
undecided Il vas perfectly evident, iog some
time past, that Grant must make some extra
ordinary effort to break ont of his PRESENT
most falkland most dismal position. Accord
ingly he put his troops in movement the other
day with the utmost activity, both by the rigE,k
and left flank On his right, # successful in
defeating the forces opposed 20 him, he miehv
have advanced up 10 the Notifications Of Rich,
mond. On the Iejr, il he could but freak
through the Inc Of the Wei ion railroad, he
could make some further progress in lsoatine
Petersburg, could stretch out bis hand toward
the Southside and Danvilie roads, and begin
really to interfere with the communication Of
edmond vltD the South.
I5 was known that although Grant had SEM
off considerable forces for tie Immediate De-
fence OF Y ashlngton, he Still hada large army
ID front Of Petersburg; a0o plainly he coU51
not let il lie idle, rotting Ia the low grounds Ok

are now revealed, and all the energies and ali

bold movement to the south Of Petersburg
The main body Of Grant whole army Is now
on or near the Weldon railroad. Their centre
rests UPON that read, sAont three miles from
the city, and their lett stre1cu2z westward 70
the "Vaughan road" which is, We presume.
the wagon road lately used TO make the conneass
tion with the interrupted line to Weldon and
Wilmington.
Around this position, says Petersburg pa
per, works OF great strength have sprung np
like magic, armed With heavy guns, and guard
ing every approach Warren corps has been
reinforced by Hancock s and Burnside's andd
the enemy works 90 that side are now occupied
by 80, 900 men.
On Sunday, a portion Of our troops was
thrown against this strong position, but aos
IN such force as to effect the main object OF
driving the enemy completely out OF their
works. We have met with Eepulse, ano
have lost some distinguished officers and many
brave men; but tie affair is not over.
Grant designs are now apparent but ne has
vigilant and able adversaries, and ConfedeE-
ate army in his front unused to see lanSees
stand firm before them. Grant ST new tor!!ncaa-
tons, and their defenders, must be staunch

Preparing to Evacuatc.

It is reported that the rebel authorities
have removed their central arsenal from
Richmond to Columbia, South Carolina.
If they consider that safe place for their
arsenal, it is highly probable that the Gov
ernment will soon pack up all their traps
and follow in the same direction. They
may not like the close proximity of Gen.
BUTLER, and as they can't move him nor
get him removed from his high position as
Chief of the Exchange of Prisoners, they
are determined to get away from him.
Richmond now, since it is surrounded by
Union armies on the Rappahannock and
James Rivers, in Eastern Tennessee, and
the entering wedge in North Carolina,
South Carolina and Georgia, is becoming
rather too contracted sphere for the capt.
tai of the Southern empire. They want
more room, and they expect the interior OF
South Carolina may offer temporary
restins-place for awhile. Thus it is, the
rebellion is shrinking back, back, into the

First Gun for Lincoln.

The New Hampshire State Republican
Convention met at Concord on the 9th
inst, and renominated Gov. GILMORE by
reclamation. The following resolution
was carried with thunders of applause,
the delegates rising to their feet and wav-
ing their hats with the widest enthusiasm: :
Resolved, That Abraham Lincoln by the ex-
ercise during the severest trials and most dam
gerous crisis of the nations history, of un-
equaled sagacity and craftsmanship of mod
Grafton and prudence which experience has
shown to be the highest wisdom, by his spot
less integrity of personal character, above re-
proach, and above suspicion, and by his slowly
formed yet unalterable determination that the
triumph of the Constitution and the Union
over secession and treason shall be the final
triumph of liberty throughout the nation, has
received and merited the abiding confidence of
the people to an extent never awarded to
any other public man since Washington but
the best interests of the country demand that
the complete destruction of the rebellion, and
restoration of peace, prosperity and the Union
should be achieved under his administration of
the Government; and we, therefore, declare
Abraham Lincoln to be the peoples choice for
re-elec ton to the Presidency in 1864.

The Successor to Bishop Hughes.

The death of Bishop HUGHES creates
considerable discussion upon the subject
OF the two vacant Arch-Episcopal Pro-
vinces of New York and Baltimore, the
latter made vacant by the death of Arch
bishop kenrick some months ago. 1t is
a rule in the the Catholic Church for each
Archbishop to send to the Pope of Rome
three names from which successor NAV
be chosen in the event OF vacancy, and
from them the Pope, with the advice of
his council, selects one, unless there should
be weighty reasons to the contrary. The
Philadelphia Telegraph says:
When Archbishop Kenrick, of the See of
Baltimore. died, it was generally thought that
either Bishop Spaulding of kentucky, or Dish
op Wood of Philadelphia. would be chosen.
But it now appears that Bishop Timon of Buff
falo, who was named by Bishop Kenrick, is to
be his successor. In that event it is probable
that either Bishop SpauldiDg or Wood will be
selected, although it is possible that the choice
may fall upon DR.. STAIRS, the present Vicar
General OF New York, distinguished eccles-
astc. Bishop Fitzpatrick of Boston, and Bish-
op Bailey of Newark, it is generally believed,
were included in the names suggested by the
deceased Archbishop. Both Bishop Bailey and
Bishop Wood are converts to the Catholic
faith. 1t Bishop Wood should be transferred
to New York or Baltimore, his successor ir
Philadelphia would probably be Rev. DR..
O'Hara, the present Vicar-Gener,l, and head
OF the Theological Seminary.
