skillful as Gen. Johnston. possess
Ing all the elements necessary to de-
veiop the maximum efficiency Of An
army, we have every reason to hope
for the most favorable results.
True enough, the enemy has been
apparently more than usually hope
full of late, but We have good grounds
for believing that this confidence is
assumed in order to affect the public
mind in the Trans Mississippi De-
partment. Aware Of the difficulty
Of obtaining correct information
from Southern sources in this De-
partment. they put forth the most ex-
travagant statements. with the view
of disturbing the minds Of the weak.
and shaking the confidence Of the
| strong.
We would warn our readers not TO
place too much confidence in Yam
kee dispatches nt this time. as they
have the very strongest possible mo-
tives to deceive, owing to the very
critical situation of affairs in the
United States. AS a general rule. it
is safe to disbelieve every e1trava-
CANT statement of Yanke ee army cor
respondents, for theme as a general
rule are hired scribblers. without
rank or character at home, and who
haze not the slightest interest i'll the
result of the contest. They will
write for the one that pays best, and
will put forth any thing, however
false, that has tendency to inhame
the popular heart, and administer to
popular prejudice.
We have not the space nj this
time TO present the subject in other
and equally grave aspects. Suffice
it t" say, that the patriot is not like
! ly to want motives to continue the
conflict. We already have an ink
/ ling of the policy Of President John
son; he is for harsh measures. trials,
executions. emancipation. conhscA-
ton and as he has the power Of sha
7 ping the policy Of the Government,
it il not likely that he will he over
ruled and forced TO the adoption of q
more lenient policy, as his views are
in strict accordance with the views
of the party that placed hi'n in
power.
Upon tht. whole, W.. have every
reason to look hopefully upon the
future" W. have certainly the
means of inl"init" resistance. and
stout hearted and true patriots. such
As compose the mass OF our popula
ton, would never consent TO terms
that would entail die grac" and dis
honor upon themselves, and wo.s un-
;old mpou their innocent and uu"f-
Tending posterity.

A IETTER from Richmond Informs US
that just before the adjournment of the
rebel Senate Gen. Lee was called upon by
them through the Secretary of War, to
present his opinion on the military situs.
tiou of the confederaey. He says in gen.
eral terms at the outset that their military
aituatioa is full Of peril and difficulty
That the great difacnlty was the question
Of supplies, and thatsthis difficulty could
only be met byla great and extraordinary
patriotic sacrifice on the part of the people
and the representatives of the people then
in Richmond could judge better than he
could whether the people were prepared
to make such sacrifices; that without this
question being thus met 1t was impossible
for him or anybody else to.keep his army
together; and, not being able to keep the

critical period 30 long. There was immi.

this (Richmond) position, and there is no
other which be can occupy which will i'm;
