GRANTS AcHIEvEMENTs.-It would be safe
to say that two hundred thousand men ard
two thousand guns have been captured by
Gen. Giant, and as the immediate result Of
his victories. His grand total of captures
are at least twice as great rs the forces under
his command at any one time. When We
add to these figures the rebcl killed and
wounded at Donelson, at the battles before
Vicksburg, at thattanooga, aud at the Will
derness, the last Of which is estimated to have
amounted to sixty thousand, and it will ap-
pear that Gen. Grant has put hors du combat
not less than tLree hundred and fifty thousand
rebels in captured, killed, wounded and dis
persed. True, some Of these successes were
obtained by desperate fighting and severe
losses, but impartial history will declare that
we could not have had Vicksbur, without
Shiloh, nor Richmond without the terrific bat
tie OF Spottsyvania. In the ligh; of the
whole record, now complete, every one of
Grants campaigns is demonstrated to have
been a success.

The ''press gang" at the east is excited to
get hold of an exceedingly spicy correspon-
dence that has recently taken place between
Gen. Sherman and Gen. Halleck. "Old
Tecumseh," it seems, was immensely offend
ed at the manner in which Halleck and STAN
ton treated his first agreement with Gen. Joe
Johnston, and insists that they foully mis-
represented him throughout. When he pass
ed through Richmond, Haleck rendered him
ain courtesies, which the old hero spurn-
ed with honest indignation. Thence arose
the correspondence. A Herald correspen.
dent has had a glimpse of it, and gives few
choice passages, as follows:

"As you will be in Richmond in few days
allow me to offer you the Inequalities of my
house here, where l shall be gratihed to 70.

GEN. HALLECK TO GEN. SHERMAN.
" 1 regret your declining my invitation,
and the unfriendy spirit manifested in your
note. Ii you knew the feeling in Washing.
ton and at the War Department, in reference
10 your agreement with Johnston, you would
appreciate the motive of my dispatch, to
W ich you refer. Permit me to assure you
of my kind feeling toward you personally
and my high admiration for your services"
