These great events have swallowed up
or oyershadoWed all others. There is no
news from Sherman, only rumor that he
was on the move. There is no news Of
the progress Of thea column moving from
East Tennessee: There is news from Al;
ALBANIA that Fedora force was o couple Of
marches in sdyance Of Easport; and there
is news that Candy and the fleet were Gltr
PrEIes with Mobile. But the great fact is
the defeat of Lees army; and it is justly
considered that this defeat is decisive Of
the issue of the war.
What that issue would be We have never
doubted, and our readers know that We
have never misled them. With only one
army in the field, and that q. weak one, 1t
is impossible that organized resistance can
be prolonged. When Lee is gone, Grant
and Sherman and Hancock and Thomas'
will be able to march where they please.
The dream of q slave power has vanished
into thin air. !.

The Republicans now brought to new

curse; that curse, instead Of being thrown
off by the fathers of this generation, or BY
their cons, was tolerated and naturally lit
generated more sin, Shoth in those who
cherished it and in those Who had not couE-
ageto deal with it. They have suffered at
last in proportion to their paltering and
their weakness, Coupsllsd at length to
choose or rrejecti slavery forever, the mass
of the-nation has adopted the right course,
and secured new and better life for the
republic. In doing this the nation has de.
