The news from tho seat of war continues
to increase in interest, and every day, If not
every hour, is pregnant with the most i'm
portant developments. Apparently not dis.
hea1tened By the disasters of Saturday, the
1cbtls after heavy skirmfs1ing all day Sun
dayi made desperate attack upon the 9Th
corps on Monday, attempting 10 recover the
ground they had lost Our troops were at
first forced hack by the suddcnness Of the at~
: tack ,butsooa ralhcd aud dro-c the rebels back,
1nfticttng upon them sevcrc loss. On Tues
day morning there was 3 general movement
OF the Army Of tie Potomac, and In the ar
1e1noon Zen. Grant. who has been impa lent
ly waiting for dry roads to make this move

telegraph is silent upon the objects and di-
rcctton of the movement, but will the close
proximity Of the contendiug a'mlcs, au ad-
vance upon either side must be attended with
Immediate results.
Shcridan's bold troopers hare started upon
another raid 10 the South Of Richmonu, bent
upon scycrlng the few remaining avenues OF
communication and supply upon which Lees

AN IMPORTANT CON FI:RESCE.
1t WIS announced few days ago That Gen.
Sherman had left his army and gone to For
ffcss Mon,oe. The report was not believed
at the time, but now It seems to be true. A
dispatch from Fortress Monroe states that
the President, Grant, Sherman and Sheridan
all met thaae on the 18th inst to put the
finishing touches 10 the plan of tie great
campaign. Each Of the Generals has returned
to hts command, 1t is announced tnat Sher~
3dan's troopers have gone on cuotter grand
raid-this time on the south side Of nicsm,nd
and Petersburg, to give the coup de grace to
The rebel lines of supply. The Weiion road
may possibly be tom to pieces clear down to
the North Carolina line. Or, the main OBJ
,ject Of the expedition may be tn destroy the
lynchburg road, which is the sole remaining
Feeder Of Lees army.
Another purpose Of the expedition is. to
prevent Lee from suddenly reinforcing john
ston. This can be accomplished by breaking
up the railroads leading towards North Car
<,lIpa. burning all IL. bridges ovrr streams,
and dest. Dying the army subsistence on the
route Lee'a bps would have to march.
One thing is certain, Sheridan Will not be
idle. He will infict more dauage On the
rebels than any other man alive, md in Il
shorter period OF time. The two main armies
acting together like the jaws Of u vice, will
soop close on the last remnants of the
Shareholders rebellion. The soldiers Of the
West with Sherman, expect within few
weeks to shake hands In Richmond, With the
soldiers Of the East, under Graut.

wore fabrics of their own manufacture; now,
on the the contrary, man who presumes to
wear aught than foreign broadcloth and cas-
simere, or woman who does not appear as a
travelling advertisement of a French millinery
shop, is hardly regarded as within the bounds
of respactability.
But this superfuous expense in dress is not
confined to the wealthier classes only. In
proportion to their means the poorer portion
of the population exhibit the same weakness.
All alike seem to be straining to reach the
summit of absurdity in fashion, while and

The same principle will hold good in every
article of male or female apparel, and one half
the money now expended upon dress, might
just as well be used for other and far better
purp 1ses.
In short, retrenchment with most people,
does not require privation of anything need

unnecessary and useless in matters OF food and

Cutting Down Expenses.

There is not family in the middle and
poorer classes, who does not feel the necessi-
ty of retrenchment in order to counterbaance
the high prices>of all articles of consumption.
They see that the disproportion between their
receipts and expenses is daily becoming great
er, and the question of how TO preserve the
equilibrium between income and outlay, is
the most fruitful topic OF family discussion.
This however, is not so difficult as at first ap-
pears, and depends more upon curtailment
OF that which is Injurious or useless than of
that which is beneficial and necessary. In the
first place, the fact is notorious, that as peo-
ple we live too high and dress too we'll. There
is no other nation in the world that is so ex-
travagant in these respects as our own; and
herein lies the secret Of another truism, that
no nation equals US in physical infrmitles-
We live on the luxuries rather than on the
necessaries OF life; we seek to please the taste
rather than to furnish nature with her actual
requirements, and our dietetic system depends
invariably upon taste. Inc result IS tnat we
are a nation of ofdyspectics, and that our sani-
tarv condition is Inferior to European nations,
and thai we are, as shown by statistics, a
short-liyed people.
Retrenchfnent regarding what we eat, there
fore may conflict with our long acquired hab-
its of indulgence, but it is calculated 10 more
than render an equivalent in bodily vlgor ana
health. AS rule the luxuries that we con-
sumo, cost more than the strictly necessaries
of life; that is our table tHxuries-fruits, but
ter, coffee, pastry, deserts etc.-are more ex-
pensive than our potatoes, bread aud meat.
Here then we see an excellent field for re-
trenchment These luxuries or great many
Of them can be wholly dispensed with, and
the result will be not only a marvellous dimi-
mutton OF family expenses, actually beneficial
to health; will decrease the doctors bills, and
prove capital antdote to dyspepsia.
In the matter of clothing there is an excel
lent field Ior retrenchment Our extrava-
gance in this respect perhaps surpasses that
with regard to food. and is habit, or rather
an evil. whose rapid growth positively re-
quires retrenchment. Only few years ago.
