The Disanection and Dependency Pre-
vailing in the Confedcracy.
[From the Richmond Enquirer, JAM o.
The enemy have discovered that starvation cannot
duce the confcderacy We lately had occasion to show
from the New York World that long the "south Is
not dsheartencd by yearnings after old comforts and
uxuriesn 1t will be unconqucrablc in the opinion even
Of our enemy; and the New York Times regards "the
material forces Of a country by its only
principal strength" but that its strength lies manly in
the mysterious and utterly Unreasonable forse Of the
human will These affected by moral well as
teria causes Tho capture OF Richmond would, In fact
relieve the confcdcracy Of real burden but in its moral
effect could not be measured by whatever loss of guns
stores To less degree the loss OF Savannah tells
the prestige, the spirits of the rebel population"
Writing Of sherman's march to Savannah the Times
says:-"Ths march disappointed tho old popular illusion
Of starving out the confedcracy. We have found the
cotton fields OF Georgia thick with whole
of cereals The land abounded in potatoes, corn wheat
poultry and stock. There approach TO
city"
The Times, with the World, gives up the starvaton
plan failure Just decided the anaconda SYSTEM
and agrees that battles must alone decide this
Let weak knecd reconstructioniss and submission
put these admissions and experiences Of the enemy
in their pipes and smoke them. The importance attached
hi III spirit and resotc purpose by these organs Of
public opinion in the enemys country s not overest
mated These newspapers well understand that
dependency liz semtreason; that your croakcr
is half traitor Your Respondent croakcr in
the first stages Of iucpicnt treason complains Of the
President, that he NEEDLES with military AFFAIRS that no
retains Colonel Norhrop Commssary General and Mr.
Seldom Secretary Of War; that our armies will be
starved out Of Richmond and disspated into guerilla
bands Next he violently opposes employing negroes
the army and ISLANDERS the soldiers by asserting that
they will be demoralized II negroes employed; that
the negroes will OF; that the masters will conceal
them. Next he talks OF pacific measures; thinks an
address from the Virginia Legislature to the people Of tho
United States soliciting an opportunity for honorable
consultation and conference would cause Mr. Lincoln to
withdraw Grant from City Point and Sherman from
Savannah, and then that q convention Of States
could assemble and discuss the question OF
dividing the two countries, stop tho war, and
restore the Union Thus your croAker becomes
reconsructionis and when his schemes OF reconstrnc
ton have failed he will subsde into submssionis and
become an abjcct and degraded slave--what he has
always been at heart There men In these States to
whom the great roundswcll Of 1851 taught prudence
without intoxicating patriotism. Disasters de-

crtcise for the purpose OF correcting errors; but they
