Pardubitz in Bohemia, and probably has been
attempted ere this. The Austrian oantonments
are said to extend all along the Bohemian 1 and
Silesian frontier reaching no 10 CracoW, This
would give us the left wing of Benedeks army
in tx valley of the Elbe. Should the Prussians
defeat him there, they might, as we used TO say
i'm our own war, "double him up" that Is, drive
his lett wing east, back upon his right in Mora
via and Austrian Silesia, break his commul.ica-
ton with Bavaria, and compel him to leave an
open road down into the heart OF Austria. A
heavy diversion in SIlesia, and even in Austrian
Poland, by the Prussian forces, might be calcu-
lated upon TO employ the hostile troops there,
preventing them from succoriDg Benedeks lett
in Bohemia, and thus bring success to the plan.
That some such, or q similar campaign IS con.
templated by the Prussans, we think we can
gather from their recent movements
SO far, then, as we have seen the Prusslans
have been fully successful. But there are some
disadvantages connected with the positions they
have gained which we ought not to overlook.
Ii win be remembered that the first successful
campaign against the South was planned uDon
the idea that TO break the line OF an enemy YOU
must strike IL perpendcularly at one point. The
capture of Forts Donelson and Henry followed
and the South not only never regained the loss
but from that time was completely crippled in
the West. Now the Prussian line extends from
Cobenz, on the Rhine, over Giessen, Dresden,
into S1lesia, ending at Oderberg; it is almost a
straight line, extending over the whole of Ger
many. 1t is too long for both offensive and de-
tensye purposes. 1t is the same mistake the
South made in the beginning, when they
attempted TO do too much.
We already see q powerful Federal army
around Frankfort to attack the Prussians at
Giesen and Wetzler. Should the Prussians be
defeated, their line would be broken and all the
benefits gained by the occupation of Hanover
in imminent danger. A defeat near Frankfort
would compel a retreat along the whole line and
necessitate theevacuation Of Saxony, Just as the
defeat at Fort Donelson compelled the South
erners to evacuate Columbus and give up their
hold on the Mississippi above Island No. TO-
But this position of the Prussians has this other
disadvantage, that they cannot advance any
considerable distance unless they move their
whole line, for they dare not expose their TANKS
nor give their enemies an opportunity OF slip
ping through gap into their rear, endangering
their communications and base of supplies
We await with great anxiety the news to be
brought by the next steamer. The second active
campaign will have by that time commenced,
and those unforeseen accidents which seldom
enter into the calculations OF generals and often
win or lose battles, may change the whole aspect
of the situation,

lions that tits likely TO receive strong popular
support.
The Times has persistcntly msre presented
this movement in manner calculated tOdamage
II IN the estimation OF Democrats 1t has suited
the purposes OF that journal TO represent the
AUGUST Convention as a means of1'nati0nalizing
the Republican party" The fact that the ines
was the FIRST public journal permitted 10 know
that such call was in contemplation, and that
1; Kept recommending 1t for several days before
u appeared, naturally created q presumption
that that journal was authorized to expound its
objects. Ii is no wonder that Democrats who
hal that impression looked upon 1t with dis
trust There was, indeed, nothing in the call to
Justify the Times representations; and the fact
that il was approved by two such sterlino Demo-
crats as Hendricks and Nesmith tended to
counteIact an impression which the present
address of all the Democratic members of Con-
gress must wholly remove.
The country needs no assurance that these
gentlemen are engaged in no attempt to ina
iIonalize the Republican party" The movement
will, accordingly, be no LONGER preiudiced in the
minds OF Democrats by the Times mlsrepresen-
tations of its character and purpose. The
vigorous ard indignant disclaimers OF the
radical journals that is TO say, of a gre
majority of the Republican pTess) equally prove
that the Times gave false account of the
object OF The Convention. II is absurd to call
that movement for "nationalizIng the Repub
lican party" in which the great body of the
Republican party Will steadily and Indignantly
refuse 10 participate.
1t is clear, therefore, despite the representa-
tons OF the IaNeS that this is a movement
which all conservative men may safely encour-
age. In the countenance given TO 1t by the
sgners of the Democratic address, we have
guarantee of its honesty and good iath-a
needed assurance that it is not tue trick of crafty
Republicans TO reiuvenate the Republican
party, and promote its perpetuity. In no view,
therefore, can its success be detriment to the
Union cause. If, as seems probable, it shall
win sufficient popular favor to render it valu.
able ally, the Democratic party will cordially
greet it as sister organization, and be ready to
confer with it, in liberal spirit, as to the best
means Of restoring the Unon-the great para.
mount object common to both.
