A battle of @ terrible character is oxpocted to take place there at any moment. The samo intelligence comes from Bermuda ‘Hundred.

The military situation at the preseut hour is moat prosperous, and forbodes speedy ruin to the cause of treason. How stands it? Grant, even with his comparatively small ‘force, holds Leo in such a position that he cannot make a move. Tle is Mierally checkmated. Without force enough fo attack his adver- sary with any prospect of success, aud not dar- ing to reinforce General Hood at Atlanta, even when that place ‘was in its direst peril, Lee ia chained down as it were with his whole army until the last pound of bacon and the last barrel of four in Richmond is devoured. Sheridan stops the mouth of the valley so effuc- tually that Barly’s portion of the rebel army must also be fed from the supplies at Peters- burg and Richmond, thus rendering desperate the case of the army ia Virginia. By the-capture of Atlanta, and the possession of its railroad communications east and south, Georgia may almost be counted out of the calendar of military difficulties against which the forces of the government are warring. Our land and naval forces holding the forts and water approaches to Mobile, under Farra- gut and Granger, the capture of the commer- cial capital of Alabama may be régarded as certain. It is quite probable also that, with proper energy on the part of the Navy De- partment, Wilmingten will very soon be in the hands of the government. As for Charleston, it is so tocked up that the guas of Sumter may “Jove’s thunders counterfeit” uotil the crack of doom, but they cannot save the tottering cause of the confederacy. It is thus evident that the rebel condition is hopeless. The last ditch has indeed been reached. The physical power of the rebellion is almost exhausted. While such is the state of things east of the Mississippi, we desire to draw the attention of the government to the necessity of using every means in this important crisis to exhaust the pecuniary resources of the confederacy—to cut off its supplies everywhere at home and break down its credit abroad. There is a great leak to be stopped on the frontiers of Texas. Cot- ton to an immense smount is finding its way into Mexico, and thence to Europe, .to moet the requirements of the rebel loan and purchase material for the war. Large quantities of munitions and supplies are pour- ing into the rebel States by the same channel. This channel should be obstracted by the presence of a competent force on the border under an abie goneral. We aro in- formed that tho rebel governmeut has a depot for cotton at El Peso which covers ten acres of ground, and several more, csntaining from five hundred to two thousand bales, a few miles in the interior from the Rio Grande. The cotton crog in Texas, Arkansas and mauy coun- ties of Louisiana this year is abundant, and every bale of it will go into rebel hands if this frontier line Is not protected. Tie agents of the rebel government in Texas alane hold now five hundred thousand bales of last year’s oro}, and they estimate the present year’s crop at two hundred thousand bales. At the cur- ; Tent rate of cotton in New York to-day this would amount to $560000,000. Within the rebel lines in Arkansas there are, both in store and in the fields, one hundred and fifty thou- sund bales wore, worth, at tbe same standard, 160,000,000, while in the parishes of Loui ana lying on the Red river it is estimated t there are one hundred and fifty thou more, giving 1 ftotal'of one million bel 28 of cotton at the disposal_of the enemy, on the frontiers of Mexico, wherewith to obtatn sup- plies and maintaiu their credit. It is clear, then, that the government ought to take instant measures to prevent this cotton from gv th iis military strength d outand @ to recuperate them broken ened, its lunsied, this leak. in the Soutuwest, | whereby resources of paramount value still ra. main to the enemy, should Le stopped.

As generals they have, like their rebel prototypes, proved complete failures, and arc not of, as much service, as mili- tary men in our forces, as a live graduate from any military institution in the North. It is true hundreds of men have been taken from civil lifo who have been made leaders in the war, and have covered the nation with’glory and themselves with imperishable fionar. It is only necessary to mention a few names to establish this fact. There are Logan, McClernand and Palmer, of Illinois; Geary, Negley and Wistar, of Pennsylvania; Curtis, of Towa; Rousseau and Greene Clay Smith, of Kentucky; Heckman, of New Jersey; Lew. Wallace, of Indiana; Dodge, of Iowa; Steven- son, of Massachusetts; Sickles, Sweeny, Ward, Weber and others, of New York, and very many others. They have all done their duty wejl and faithfully. And now let us glance at the brilliant galaxy whioh tbe national military institute has furnished as leading spirits in the war for the Union. These are Grant, McClellan, Meade, Sherman, Thomas, Rosecraus, Hencock, Sheridan, Hooker, How- ard, Sedgwick, Gilimore, Foster, Granger; Can- by, Ord, Warren, Wright, Hunter, Porier, Kautz, Kilpatrick, Jeff. C. Davis, Naglee. Here are a few of the fighting leaders of the Union armies, end those who are in retirement only await a summons to the field to leap into the saddle and with renewed ‘ardor and vigor fight in the blessed cause of the Union. Turse Lerrers rrom Tunes Generars.— We published yesterday morning a letter from General Grant, a letter from General Sherman and a letter from General McClellan. They are all terse, vigorous and patriotic. We ad- vise politicians to study them and learn how to write. General Grant’s letter was written be- fore the Chicago nomination. General Sher- men’s letter was written after the Chicago nomination, and General McClellan’s letter ac- cepted the Chicago nomination. All three of the letters were aimed at the copperhead peace party, and betwoen these three generals the Woods, and the Seymours, and the Vallandig ams, are completely annihilated.
