These are fa- vorable symptoms of coming good fortune at the great rebel stronghold of the South- west. But, in the meantime, what is General Burnside. doing against a threatened rebel invasion of Kentucky? Why has not Gen. Rosecrans moved out from Murfreesboro? Why this inactivity on the part of our land and naval forces in the southeast corner of Virginia, in-North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia? If. we wait.a few weeks longer all aggressive operations, from Pamlico Sound to the Savan- nah river, will most probably have to be sus- pended until the return of the malaria-killing frosts of autumn. But, above all, why lingers the Army of the Potomac on the northern side of the Rappahannock? Taking up these questions in their order, we may answer, that, in addition to his laborious cawpaign against Vallandigham, General Burn- side, in order to checkmate the threatened rebel invasion of Kentucky, has been preparing for the movement of a heavy army column to meet the enemy more than half way; that General Rosecrans is biding his time, inas- much as his army may be considered an army held in reserve to support the movements of the advanced army of General Grant in the Southwest; that our land and naval forces, from Norfolk to Charleston, can, perhaps, do nothing better just now than the duties of oc- cupation and observation while awaiting the issue of great events elsewhere; and that Gen. Banks, having substantially accomplished his work of expelling the armed forces of the rebellion from Louisiana, is, perhaps, moving upon Port Hudson, if not preparing for an ad- vance into Texas. With regard to the Army of the Potomac we are somewhat in a fog. We believe that Gen. Hooker retreated “without delivering a general battle” when such @ battle would have given us the greatest victory of the war; that he recrossed the river when be should have re- mained on the other side, and that. his army to-day, if left simply to the manage- ment of its corps commanders, could be marched over the river and could utterly rout and disperse the rebel’ army under General Lee. What General Hooker is waiting for we do not know, nor do we care to know. We are satisfied, however, that if Gen. Halleck had been a Napoleon Bonaparte Richmond would ‘have been taken during the late favora- ble military operations in Virginia, notwith- standing the failure of General Hooker. General Stoneman’s cavalry found that Lee, in order to strengthen his army on the Rappahannock, had left the rebel capital com- pletely defenceless. At that opportune mo- ment five thousand Union troops could have marched into the city, and within afew hours could have destroyed military stores of all kinds, cannon foundries, factories of small arms, magazines of ammunition, railroad rolling stock, &c., the loss of which would have crippled the rebellion almost as seriously as the bagging of Lee’s entire army on the Rappa- hannock. i Regarding the escape of Richmond, under the circumstances, as something miraculous, the rebels have taken the alarm. There is no dan- ger, therefore, that when General Hooker again croases the Rappshannock Richmond will be completely stripped of its troops. Nor is it to be supposed that Gen. Hooker, when again on the other side of the river, will again get his army so entangled in the jungle of “the wilderness” as.to be glad’ to get out of it by the back track. We presume that in the next trial of strength and strategy with Lee the War Office at Washington will compel him to divide his forces, or to abandon the Rappahannock and all the country to the James river in order to save Richmond. Whatever may be the plans of the War Office, we think that experience and common sense plead strongly in favor of moving upon Richmond by way of the James river, according to the plan of Gen. McClellan. The Army of the Potomac, by any route, is ready for action, and, “conscious of its strength,” is eager for a decisive trial with the enemy. sengers, arrived at this port last night.

The arrest and trial by court martial of this gentle- man was a grievous error; but the modification of it in this form is a still greater one. The grounds on which his sentence met with such «general condemnation were, not that he did not deserve it, but that it violated a great consti- tutional principle. If his utterances were treasonable he was responsible for them to the regularly constituted tribunals of the country, to which, as a civilian, he was alone responsi- ble. By modifying instead of setting aside the sentence passed upon him by the court martial before which he was arbitrarily dragged, the government has only aggravated its fault. If it hasa right to commute a punishment it had @ right to inflict it, which is the point in dis- pute. The great majority of those who have made their remonstrances heard against such arbitrary assumptions care nothing for Val- landigham; but they do care for the great con- stitutional principles involved in his case. They bad looked for their prompt recognition by the administration in its disavowal of the acts of General Burnside. Instead of that | they find the tyrannical privileges aseumed by him reaffirmed by « variation of the sentence which leaves ite principle untouched, and which violates just as glaringly the constitu- tional rights of the citizen.

The politi by in taking the preliminary steps, are doing that which increases, rather than allays, this animoal- ty between factions and parties, The radicals, or niggerheads, are pushing their extreme no- tions with all their power, with a determina- tion to force them upon the administration, in hopes of thus killing off all who are connected with the government and do not endorse their rabid and revolutionary views. It is under their pressure that such arrests as that of Val- landigham are brought about, and such things area part and parcel of their programme for the eleotion of President. Every effort is being made to push forward the league of that wing of the republican party. A State convention is to be held at Utica on: the 27th inst., where there will be a grand explosion of tongue patriotiam—~a sort of opaning day of the Presi- dential campaign for 1864 for the niggerhead party. as revolutionary doctrines on the other side. The harder the niggerheads pursue them the more bitter they are. Already affairs have reached an alarming attitude, and that, too, be- fore the campaign is really opened to the pub- lic or its course fully determined. But, fortu- nately, the niggerheads and copperheads are not having it all their way. are at work which may in a short time change somewhat the whole aspect of affairs, and pre- vent the Chases on one side, and Vallandighams on the other, from controlling matters them- selves. The bitter and acrimonious fight that the niggerheads have kept up on Secretary Seward for the last two years, and the conse- quent bitter feeling that has been engendered among the massesof the two wings of that party, have led the moderate men of both wings to see that there is no hope of doing anything with either of those Secretaries. Under this idea another programme is being arranged, which they hope to obtain control of the government and the patronage during another Presidential term. The movement contem- plates trotting out President Lincoln for a re- nomination and election. The idea is that greater strength can be concentrated upon him than any other candidate, and, that, under the asperity that has been going on betweon the friends of other ly fall back oh Lincoln as the compromise candi- date. Of course, if the President consents to thus be put forward, he will control the pa- tronage of the government, and no longer al- low either of the Secretaries to use their de- partments for their own political advancement. sugurated is yet somewhat uncertain. A great effort is being made to induce the President to take part in the meetings of the Leagues in Philadelphia; but the probabilities are thata grand mass meeting and popular demonstration will be held at Washington about the Fourth of July next, at which President Lincoln will pre- side, and that that will be made the initiative of this important movement. With this move- ment inaugurated the political contest will as- sume a different phase from the present; but whether it will be any the less bitter or revolu- tionary the rapid transpiring of events alone can determine. Let us with patience watch and hope for the best for our once glorious country. rals of the Army of the Potomac recently made war on the newspapers, and stopped their circu- lation in the army, with the exception of two miserable sheets published in Washington—the Star and Chronicle—which are not even apologies for newspapers.

The daily cir- culation of the Heratp in the Army of the Potomac is from eight to ten thousand. A few copies of the Fimes are © sen, while the Tribune and the World are almost a curiosity.

The fact ie, the army never was so miserably handled as during the last nine days’ campaign by Hooker. The generalship displayed then was infinitely worse than that of Burnside at Fredericksburg, and almost on a par with the generalship at the first battle of Bull run. If the corps commanders could be allowed to get togother and select their own commander they certainly would do much better; in fact, we be- lieve that the army would do much better with- out any commanding general than it did in the last campaign.
