The Capture or Dispersion of Lee's Army—The Opportunity of the Admin- istration. The recent heavy and crippling blows inflict- ed upon the rebellion, East and West, rendor it morally certain that all that is wanted to put aa ead to the spurious Southern confederacy of Jeff. Davis is another meeting between the vic- torious and enthusiastic army of General Meade and the defeated, terribly cut up, re- treating and demoralized army of General Lee. Without knowing anything of the exact move- ments of cither army for some days past, we think it may be safely said that Lee, in the Shenandoah valley, is mancuvring to get out of it and back again to Richmond without an- other battle, if possible, while General Meade, with a due regard to the great object of a crowning success, is vigilantly watching the movements of his adversary, and moving to cut him up or cut him off ag the opportunity may offer. We presume that the militia forces of Gene- ral Couch, forming of themselves a very con- siderable army, may now be considered as withdrawn from further active operations. Otherwise those troops might mow be exceed- ingly useful to General Meade in protecting bis communications while employing the Army of the Potomac en masse in direct pursuit of the enemy’s columns, in order to bring them to a stand or piecemeal to destroy them. Weare satisfied, however, that with the regular rein- forcements which have been added to General Meade’s army since the great battle of Gettys- burg he will soon effect a final settlement with Lee, if the wily rebel leader can only he brought to the test of another engagement. But the half dozen passes over the Blue Ridge be- tween Harper’s Ferry and Staunton (over a hundred miles) afford so many doors of retreat to Lee by which he may escape unless vigi- lantly watched on both sides of the mountain at thesame time. This, then, is the task which the situation of Lee’s army in the Shenandoah valley enjoins upen General Meade—the task of overhauling the eneqy’s forces in a direct pursuit, or of intercepting them at or near some one of the Blue Ridge passes, with the main body of his army in good supporting distance. General Meade’s great opportunity for the capture or destruction of Lee’s army was unfor- tunately lost at Williamsport. That army is now at large; but even at Winchester it is nearly two hundred miles from Richmond; and upon his interior lines from Harper’s Ferry Meade has only to keep a vigilant eye upon the movements of Lee in order to intercept him by any route he may take. In fact, we believe that General Meade, dropping all these nice ex- periments of the strategy of hide and seek, has only to push directly up the Shenandoah valley after Lee to secure the overthrow and final dis- persion of his army. Can any one imagine that his officers and soldiers from Mississippi, or Lou- isiana, or Alabama care any longer to be fight- ing on the soil of Virginia after the loss of Vicksburg and Port Hudson? or that his Ten- nessee regiments have any further interest in Richmond, with the expulsion of Bragg By General Rosecrans from Tennessee into Geor- gia? or that the chivalry of South Carolina are ambitious to await tite issue of another battle of Gettysburg, whén Charleston is In danger and Beauregard is clamorous for the return of his soldiers from Virginia? It ia not possible, considering ‘these late dis- asters to their armies and their cause every- where, that the soldiers of Lee, even those from Virginia and North Carolina, still cherish any confidence in thelr sinking cause. They must see that the situation of Jeff. Davis isa hopeless ene; that nothing can save him; that it bas at length become foolish and useless to continue the war for a Southern confederacy; and that the glory to the Southern soldier of sacrificing his life for this Southern Utopia bas Aeparted, and that he has been grievously de- frauded in the heavy sacrifices he bas already made. It was understood throughout the re- bellious States and by Lee’s army that with his invasion of Pennsylvania would ,begin an ag- gressive campaign which would surely culmi- nate in the dictation of a treaty of peace by Lee from the White House at Washington. Thus for all their losses and all their disasters in other quaxters the suffering people of the re- bellious States would be @ thousand times over indemnified in the crowning achievement of a Southern confederacy, with its boundaries es- tablished according to the will of Gen. Lee. How great, then, must be the despondency and the 4 of Lee’s soldiers, in view of the fact that in this hopeful campaign it was only by the luckiest of accidents that his whole ar- my escaped capture or destruction! We are satisfied that Gen. Meade has the forces with which this demoralized army of Lee may still be captured or cut to pieces and dis- persed on its way to Richmond, and we trust that Lee will not be again allowed to get be- hind the Chickahominy. But, in any event, even if a siege may yet be required to secure Richmond, and reinforcements by many thou- sands may be needed to fill up the wasted ranks of the Army of the Potomac, we cannot think that there is or will be any necessity for en- foreing the conscription. From the readiness with which twenty thousand of our State militia were sent forward to the defence of Penaosyl- vania, it is manifest that the militia reserves in the several loyal States and the volunteering ‘system will be quite sufficient to supply all de- ficiencies and requirements in our armies to the end of the war. Grant that the act isa constitutional act, it is still offensive and odious to a large proportion of our Jebor- {ng classes; and when the objects sought for by such an act can be promptly secured in other ways and by other means, surely it is the poll- oy of wisdom to defer indofinkely the enforce- ment of the obnoxious law. We think the rebellion is nearly subdued, that the war is nearly at an end, and that our late great victorite, Mast and West, have. done away with the necessity which might otherwise exist for the raising of a new army under the conectiption. Wuo Quanixp tem Rrors on Sri t— On Staten Island there was the panto among the bankers, brokers, ahip- owners and others who do business in New York on the appesranoe of a riot in that su- burb of the metropolis. They ran here, there and everywhere in a state of alarm. At length Billy Wilson turned up aad called for throe tundred df his old regiment to meet him. The very call was sufficient. The rioters immedt- ately subsided, saying it was no use to attempt to resist Golonel Wilson, and they gubmitted at once, like the coon which came down from the ‘the sinews of the war. The Recent Reign of Terror and the Ia- cendiary Press. The political press of this city, having done much to cause and to encourage the recent riots, now seems anxious to have them renewed. The niggerhead organs are evidently trying to make the conscription as onerous as possible, and the copperbead organs neglect no means to render it odious to the masses. Both these classes of | {noendiary newspapers publish articles calcu- lated rather to irritate than to soothe the ill feeling now prevalent. Some of the results of their teachings they caw last week, and may, if they continue, ehortly see again. We have for slong time predicted these results, and are consequently not surprised at them. It is a very noticeable feature of the course of the niggerhead papers that they lose no op- portunity to give aid and cgmfort to the rebels. ‘This fact wes amply illustrated last week, when the Tribune, Times and Post vied with each other in representing the outbreak in this city as the result of a rebel plot anda part of a deep laid rebel plan for raising a revolution in the North in faver of Jeff. Davis. If these abolition assertions were true, what greater encouragement could Jeff. Davis desiret Overwhelmed as the rebel lead- ers must have been by their succession of signal defeats, what other news could have brought them such comfort and consolation as the intel- ligence of an immense popular uprising at the North in behalf of their confederacy? This is undoubtedly what the abolitionists intend. They know tbat the rebels are beaten. They know that unless something is done to prolong the war the Union will be restored before their conspiracy to abolitionize every seceded State can be accomplished. They know that to pro- long the war it is necessary to inspirit Jeff. Davis and weaken our armies, They have tried to do this by procuring foreign intervention, and have failed. They have tried to make bargains with the rebel leaders, as in the case of Conway and Mason, and have failed. Asa last resort, they have tried first to incite and then to mis- represent, popular disturbances at the North. Here, logically and practically, we arrive at the motives of the niggerheads in exciting riots by violent and abusive articles and in assuring the rebels that. the rioters are led by Jeff. Davis’ agents, sympathize with Jeff. Davis’ rebellion, and belong to @ vast conspiracy to aid Jeff, Da- vis’ sinking cause, These motives are to keep up the war until the last cent is stolen from the national treasury.and the last slave is trans- formed into an abolition voter. It is almost unnecessary to say that the in- cendiary and treasonable statements of the ‘niggerbead organs are untrue. Jeff. Davis bas no party in this city except the abolition party. The masses of our people are thoroughly loyal. They have given more money and sent more men to the war than the people of any other two cities in the country. They have supplied and sustained the finances of the government, Why, the very classes sald to have been engaged in the recent riots have contributed more soldiers to the Union armies than all the niggerheads in the nation— in spite of poor Greeley’s bombast about the nine hundred thousand radicals he promised to send and did not. The recent exhibitions of popular discontent were not caused by any hostility to the Union. They were fomented by the coppes- head organs for political purposes, and by the scandalous, insulting and abusive articles in the abolition papers, and especially in the Tribune, Times end Post, whose editors appear to hate the white race as intensely as they adore the black. The abolition leaders are aware that their only hope of ‘maintaining political power is by the votes of emaneipated negroes. Their party. hag made such a dismal fiasco in its attempts to administer the government that white voters can no longer be deluded into giving it sup- port. Consequently the abolitionists ere en- deavoring to manufacture negro voters, and it waa the popular but misguided apprehension of this scheme which led to the murder of : the unfortunate negroes last week. During this war thousands of blacks ‘have been sacrificed to the ambition of the abolitionists, and the poor, fellows who’ were hung during the riots. were but added tothe hecatomb. But while we fix the chiefresponsibility of the recent disturbances where it justly belongs, we do not absolve the copperhead journals and the politi- cians, from Governor Seymour down, of their share of the blame. The copperhead papers should not have given occasion for the out- break by harping upon and misrepreasnting the Conseription act for political effect, and Gover- nor Seymour ought to have arranged with the Washington authorities to furnish the quota of this State by volunteering, as he could readily have done, and so have relieved us of the draft altogether. As it was, however, both nigger- head and copperhead organs sowed the wind, and they came very near reaping the whirl wind «few days ago. If.they now persist in provoking another storm they will not soeasily epcape. Barisan Curvatry—More Herr For THE Weax.—England is the Quixote of nations. She is ever soady to break a lance in behalf of the distressed. But, unlike her Spanish model, her chivalry and her interests go hand in hand. This, to be sure, is purely accidental; and if her geod actions sometimes prove profitable she is not the less entitled to credit for them. Just now she fs in a sad state of concern about a shaky potentate who has been hitherto supposed eapable of taking care of himself. His people have somehow got at loggerheads about the merits of the aystem of government of which he is the representative, and unless he gets foreign aid he and his dynasty will go by the board. England, ever ready to rush to the assistance of the wealthy and defenceless, has proffered her serviccs, and the sympathy which used to be spent upon the nigger is now ex- pended upon his Chincse rival. There is nota dockyard in Great Britain which does not re- sound with the noise of work in progress for the new protege, and ft ie edifying te witness the sudden unanimity with which the British public ‘have combined to farther his interests. We admire this spirit. It is highminded, it fo consistent, and will carry with it its own reward. It was by the exercise of similar be- nevolence that England acquired her Indian em- pire.

It is furnished with Coles’ revolving cu- polas, and its plating is of s thickness that it is calculated will render it impervious to any of the erdnance hitherto invented. It will prove, as may be imagined, quite a manageable vessel for the amall rivers and canals of the Celestial Empire. Its construction in other respects ar- gues en the part of the Chinese a much more advanced knowledge of the science of artillery than has been hitherto attributed to them. Of course all this is fair and square; but would it not be well for us to take into consideration the chance of this iron monster being driven by a storm or some other little accident into one of our harbors?
