Consequently the country was open, and our march free from obstruction.

One thing very not'ceabie along the line of march from the immense fields of corn planted this seston, Cotton seems to have been left ont of the list of crops for this year’s cultivation, the entire attention of the people having been turned to the growth Of articles of food. The crops at present are promising, of starving the South into submission has lost much of its force since IT have had the opportunity of pass- T think dhe sooner this fact is appreciated by the body of the people North the better it will be for them. The in coming crops will be ready in the course of two months, and after that the serious apprebensions of the Southern | people coneerning food will be at an end. If, however, it be the misfortune of the people to lose their crops by disease or drought, the fact assumes another form; but | a8 a matter of raising crops, the country will yield saffi- client for bome consumption. Tho operations of our armies has a tendency to weaken their supplies, not only ‘by the use of them, but their waste and unavoidable de | struction. The march upon this city alone has occasion- | @d the loss of crops on a number of plantations, and if we | are lovy detained hero many more will suffer. THE BATTLE FIELD.
