It shakes the confederacy to its centre, and staggers the last hope of the most virulent rebel. in a recent artiele on the war the London Times named what occurrences might give us “expectations of absolute suc- cess’’—~but it named them as it would nome what it conceived to he sheer imp These occurren.es were Sherman's succe: like scheme has been transformed by the cop- perheads into cowar diy and treasonable pro- position, designed to enconrage the rebels. If we urge Gen. MoCieilan to sternly rebuke this disloyal platform upon national grounds we may also urge him to do so upon political grounds. The peace men might refuse to sup- port him if he repudiated the peace platform; but that would be the greatest favor they could confer upon him. Gen. McClellan is not a copperhead, and has no real affiliations with copperheads. The peace men openly opposed his nomination inside and outside the Chicago Convention. They denounced him quite as venomously as the administration lackeys de- nounce him. Now they pretend to support him; but their support is losing him votes every day, and the wit, One McClellan editorial in Ben Wood's lottery and peace or- articles.

Sherme success is an estab!ished fact, and Farragut, in the capture of Forts Morgan and Goines, has sbown that our force at Mobile is resisted only by raw militia that will not fight, and that cannot hold Mobile any more than it held ere- mes, the forts in the harbor. We may now, tt fore, even’ in the opinion of the London 7) reasonably expect that eur efforts to put dowu the rebellion will be crowned with “absolute success.” Fi Io Virginia the great struggle goes on and deepens in interest in proportion with the pro- gress made at other polats; for Virginia nro- mises soon to be the only place at which the rebellion can show a respectable front.

It would appear on its face almost incredible thut at (he very boar when men at the vital poiuts are the great want of the Confederacy, one of. ite skilful generals should thus @elibe- rately put thirty thousand good mon outof the combat. It seems strange to ere this in Vir- ginia; butit is stranger etili to note, that the rebellion has just suffered ly the same strategy in the Southwest. At the very hour when Hood was figuting Sherman at 9 disadvantage because of the want of men, Hood bad ten or fifteen thousand men marching on Nashville, twe or three hundred miles away. Jn both in- stances the confederacy cuffers throug’ the in- eane dosire of its leaders to make material that its agents can use in Europe.
