An "InteIligent' English View.

The intelligent comprehension" manifested
by the English "Thunderer, the London Times,
Of the desperate situation" Of Sherman at
Atlanta, and his forced retreat @ through
Georgia to the seaeoast. as shown by the an-
nexed paragraph, is worthy Of notice, bat
needs no comment-it speaks for Itself:
Even the Northern press cannot persis. in
representing Shermanis desperate march as
deliberate and skilliully calculated operation
We believe It was not calculation, bat ne
cessity. Sherman had 10 choice, except of
difficulties. long before be quilted Atlanta
HIS position vas simply that of commander
who has adva0ced too far into the enemy's s
country, and discovers that bis opponents have
cut of his supplies and every line of retreat
When be obtained possession Of Atlanta il
was only TO fad the Confederate Generals be
tween him aad auy route north or west. But
the country to the south and east was open to
him II he could traverse The distance that
divided him from the points on the seacoast in
the possession Of the FederalS, or within reach
OF help ir0m tie fleet. He decided on this
course. and must accomplish his object alto
gether. There Is nothing for him between the
two extremes. His march is q repetition on q
larger scale Of the great strategic movement"
by which Mcclellan transferred his army, after
his defeat before Richmond, TO Harrison 5
Landing. where it found safety" and the Fed
eral guuboats and transports But The distance
between the York and James rivers Is not, as
IN Georgia, measured by hundreds Of miles.
Mcclellan executed his maneuver successfully,
out the campaign itself was failure Sherman
has undertaken 4 more desperate operation Of
the same kind. He must march TO the sea. as
no Federal 10tilla can ascend the Savannah to
aid him. His difficulty is one of frequent oc
clrreace in military history, ancient and mod
ern. An invading army must keep open a line
OF retreat in case of being outmaneuvered Of
overpowered, or rul the risk Of destruction or
surrender, either fatal 10 the expedition The
ten thousand Greeks were led bv Nenophon
from the plains o: the Euphrates to the shore
of the Black Sea, bat the enterprise was under
taken by the wreck Of an army. The retreat
itself is celebrated in history. but il toIG the
world that the invasion of Persia was a runous
failure. 1t is possible that Sherman may save
as much of bis army as be can march to the
shore OF the Atlantic but not the less will the
invasion OF Georgia have been signalIy defeated.
The non realization of the above prophecy
will appear in stronger light when it is known
that it appeared in the Times Of Dec. 20,h-

The MoRNoS SAINTS. The Camp Doug
las Nedette is down on polygamy as practised
by the MoTmous in Utah. 1t says: Sisters
are often the wives OF the same man. We
know OF three sisters living with one man as
his wives. Mothers and their daughters are
frequently found living with one man as his
wives. Nieces are married to uncles and half
sisters to half brothers. How sad the spectacle
which Utah, in the. chains of polygamy, pre-
sents to the enlightened nineteenth century
And yet nothing better can be expected when
such 4 disgusting doctrine is taught by leaders
to a community. How long, people of Utah,
will you submit to such iufamy? Viii you not
arise in the majesty of right and cast the foul
and uuclean thing from you-repudiate the
pernicious teachings of demagogues and be
men aud women-not Slaues and concubines ?"

DANGEROUS Marysvile Express init.
mates that il would be dangerous proceeding
to interfere with the operations of Gwiu colon
izing agents, as thereby France would be
offended, and the Government dare not take
such a step. Does the Express presume to
claim that France has full license to recruit her
armies in this State, ana that we are already
reduced TO the condition OF vaSsalage to that
empire? We infer as much from its language.
At all events, the Express shows that such is
the condition the Secessionists would have us
occupy.-Bee.
In replying to the above from the Bee the
Express asks:
Dare it take ground in favor of war with
France and the European alliance, or will it
advise humiliation al the feet of al audacous
deSpot or his Niceroy Gwin?
We take occasion to answer the Express in
the language Of The Union, Eve hope the time
is approaching when the boys in blue will get
permission to cross the border and show

DrscoED. ."-UDder this heading, the Marysville
Express OF the 3lst ult. has al article of some
length, discoursing in its usual style upon the
low vulgarity Of the small fry Republican
papers, and the high-toned patriotic character
of the Democracy. II By the term Republican -
the Express means to include that portion Of
the American people who, under the influence
OF patriotism, are putting forth thei. united
strength to aid the Administration in the pres
ervation Of the Republic, aud by the term
Democrat" the class which sought its dismem.
berment, and for that end opposed the use Of
coercive power for the suppression of rebellion,
and sought in that distracted state Of public
affairs the establishment Of Pacific Repab-
lic,H and which, ever since the war of rebellion
began, have sworn By, and prayed for, the sue
cess of the Southern Confederacy and
in that case, We understand and accept the
terms. Any other definition of those terms,
under the present condition of things. is sheer
nonsense, not to say the false hearted hypocrisy
and deceitfulness of deprayed being.
The treason OF the Democratic party has
become truth Of history; and with this fact
before US, present with US, and staring US 10
the face from that portion of the press which
claims the exclusive title democratic" il is
not a matter of surprise TO US that, eren m the
soeiot etrcle, the Democracy finds itself rebuked
by the cold shoulder of Republicanism. When
the Express, and others of its class. discover
their shame, confess aud forsake their evil wavs.

No project has trauspired of anuexipg the

not affirm allegiance to Louis Napoleon but to
Maximian. DIR. Gwin is the agent of both,

VOLUNTEERS AND CoNscRIPrs.-There is no
fact connected with the armies Of the Union
aud the rebels (remarks the Flag so charac-
teristic as the methods for raising recruits. The
Federal Government depending almost solely
on volunteers, gives larger bounty, more pay
and allowances than any other Government 10
the world; this bounty being largely increased
to those who have served one term of enlist
ment The rebels give no bounty and but little
on copscriptions for filing its
ranks. Its soldiers, conscripted for a year. are
by act Of Congress compelled TO serve during
the war. The effect Of the two systems is de-
fined in the fact that, while cases of desertion
from the Union army to the rebels are of very
rare occurrence, the rebels desert 10 the Union
lines by thousands. 1t is reported by eye wit
nesSes that one-haf the rebels are employed
preventing the other half from deserting.
