THE NEW YORK SUN. mn ee WEDNESDAY MORNING DEC, 14, 1864, Comeral Warren's Expedition. Tar resulte of Gem, W saman's expedition are prob- ably entirely eatialactory to Gen, Grawr, though tt 'r pot umlikely thet @ portion of the public wil! be disappointed that no greater object was gained than the destruction of fifteen miles of railrow). But breaking vp the Nine of railroad between RB chmaod and the Atlantic tier of rebel states is evidently » Most important service at the present time, and may largely conduce to the success of Gonerals Baromas and Fosrsain Seuth Carciins and Geor- gia, by interposing ineupershle obstscles to the transmission of troops to oppose their progress, It is not improbable that General Watnan's demon- ftration may directly affect operations farthor North, where the most important = mil- tery movements are sow in progress, the Perticulars of which must be withheld for the present for prudential reasons. In the meantime it is enficient to state that the success of these im- pending movements will be greatly promoted by Cevéral Wanrnen's reconnoissance, That the rebela should be found in force and the country fortified im the direction of Weldon is by no means surpris- ing. Next to Lynchburg and Petersburg, Weldon ts perhaps one of the mont important strategic points bear.ng upon the operations in Virginia and the rebel leeders, would be by no means likely to omit fortifying she approaches to it im advance, The destruction of the railroed cronettions with ft is therefore « decided advantage, se will more fully appear within a few days or a week at the farib- est. As matters now stand, the weather is the chief discouraging feature of the aituation , but even this, nnfavorable aa it is, will at worst only retard withont preventing the grand operstions DOW ip progress, ‘The Defecus of Our Draft System. ly, at the commencement of the war, the nation cold have anticipated ity magnitude and daration, thore |s no doubt thet adequate measures would buve been adopted that Would bave saved us an lmnenss outlay of blood and treasure, The want of thie foresight induced » petty hand to mouth pohey, which has been all but ruinous in ite results, Every measure of war and finance was devised vatber on & tomperary expedient than as a sound principle of poliey or necessity. Asa consequence there wasa want of any definite afm sod plan in alwoat every Lrauch of the nations) government, which hag rendered thia war the most costly that bas ever been waged. On every side wo see the evklences of waste end extravagance, We placed magnificent armies in the field, but pa ralyzed thelr action by neglecting to adopt any settled plans for supplying the wear and tear. We imagined that our duty ended at the recruiting station or the draft wheel. We kindled the fire {ato a bleze but noglevted to heap on fresh fuel until the engine began to drag and stop running, ‘Thus we find that our armios have every where muf- fered for want of a proper recruiting system. A mupply of fifty thoussod new men to General Gaant after the battles of the W.ldernass would have enabled bim to crush Lur's army and enter Biehmond. Yet his lonses «ince that time by batile and disease bave more than equaled that number, and his reinforcements drib- bied out by details, have uot exceeded a hundred tbousind men, It is the same in Tennesnee to-day. If General Tuomas had twenty thoussud fresh men, be could at once ro!) back the tide of rebel inva- ion froin Nashville, end destroy Hoop’s army. What is now required is the adoption of a system that wil! supply at loast a por centage of the losses of the army —not suddenly or by spasmodic efforts, which injuriously affect industry and neediesaly exhaust the country, but by a steady process of recruiting or drafting that will always sustain our armies at their proper effective sireugth. If it were necessary to obtain—say three hundred thousand men a year, under existing circumstances, 4+ would be much more advantageous to procure ther sts stoady rate of » thousand » day—for working days—than by ® spasmodic and eudden Araf enforced within s fow months. It would be easy torecrult a regiment a week, or two hundred and filty men a day in this city, This would amount to fifty two thousand men s year upon the empire city alone. Yot, a suddoo draft of fifteen thoussnd mon, enforced within one or two months, would greatly derange the avtire industry of our city, Tt is the same fu other communities In this view, {8 is to be boped that Congreses will amend the errollment act so as to ersures constant, steady supply of men. All the machine- ry isiv existence for this purpose, st {t only re- quires to beset in motion. All that is needed ts the prompt payment of sufficient bounties of way five hundred dollars ® man, and the corditl co- operation of the provost marshals with the local authorities. By thie menns the necessity of e drat would, in most localities be obvirtod. A plan of thie kind could be rendered far more practicable and efficient than tho system of drafting, which *bould only be resortal to in the event of contin= rencies that are not like Neport of the Superintendent of the Works ing Women’s Protective (uion, ‘Tae report ant mitted by the Superintendent of the Working Women's Protective Union, at the | meoting held last evening in Cooper Institute, pre- sents many facts of interest to al] who desire an tMprovement in the condition of the working women of this city, The report is hooeswarily only av outlme, a general exhibit of the operations of the inatitution since its establishment in February \est; but enough is recorded to show the vast emount of food that may be done by a judicious and systematic plan of action, principle of the sssociasion is the procurement of employment for needy women —not the distribu tion of charity ammons them. Char y, even if it could be divested of the huuilistion whieh attends ite acveptance by the deserving, would be buia temporary relief, while eraployment 68 permar audcan be accepted without sitive feel'ngs, have been providedwith remunerat'y ! os shown by the roport in queetion, is thy deuce of the practicability of the ay ae Jess than your in existence, anc to. + Ob @xperiment in a uew field for the reves us ie unfortunate, the association has beon the meane of went wiury to the most vty beet . ~~ The fundamental | #um therefir wi The numter of women who | jon incident to them as aclaas. The report shows, Biso, that the institution t# imereaging in Weefulness, site object and secomplishments be- ome more generally understood, ‘During the six number of applications at the roome of the associ. ation reached eleven hundred and forty+hree-—an average of over thirty-one daily, This iocrense exhibits the sounduens of the system upon which the Protective Union {a founded, and sugurs well for the extension of ite usefulness, The very emal) propor. tion of applicants who fail to procure employment (owing & their unskillfuloems) is also an evidence of the advantage sccruing to seckers of employ- ment, when under the patronage of en (nfluential association, Large nuclere of those applicants had diligently sought for ex oloyment, but from want of recommendation, or ignorance of the Proper places at which to apply, were unsuccers- ful, The Superintendent's report, together with the other proceedings of the mecting, which are fully reported in to<day’s Sts, are deserving of attention on the part of all philanthropic citizens, When te Look fora “Financial (enias,” closed & somewhat mate of our financial condition, with the following exclamation, which will find « ready reeponee in al) loyal hearts: Is there no financial genius in Congress? Are We to be content with shuffling expedienta and leventh-hour devices? Lei the Moses who can @mite effect.vely the rock of Public Credit stand forth and receive the homage of a rescued People! As yet, no ‘financial genius’ bas appeared either in the Cabinet or Congrens, for the simple reason that politica! geniuses occupy the entire field. The party machinery crushes ous al! but men of ‘‘shul- fling expedients and sleventh-bour devices," and inexorably shuts from all places of honor ant trum executive geniuses of any kind. Hence, es matters stand, Congress is sbout the leat place where me won'd be likely to find any kind of genius or ability. The Taimowe must therefore light its candi», and aeok in the market place for its financial Moses, Almost any two thousand dollar bank clerk in Wall street would Le more capebie of managing our finances than the incompetents whom we bave employed for the purpose during the Last fow years “ By their fruits sball ye know them" isa good rulein business as in morals. We believe that thero aro scores of New York fiuanciers fully cou potent to take our national finsnoes in their present desperate ecniition, and reatore the credit of the nation, Tut we have no faith in the competency of New England lawyers and Western politicrans for the work, The mation bag hal quite enongh of them, They have well nigh ruined the country and exhausted ite credi!. Let the shoemaker stick to bis last, We have got over the folly of employing civilian Generals, and the war ie managed by trained Went Point graduates, This princtple should be carried nto other depart- ments of the Government, A financier, not »law- yer, should be Secretary of the Treasury. None but persons trained to great commercial opers- tions are competent to deal with the vast financial interests of our country # the pre- sent time, and New York is the only place capable of furnishing the “financial genius"? to whom « business operation of @ million of dol- lare is not a hopeless puzzle. It wasn banker and practical fuancior end not s lawyer and politician, that restored the finances of the old Continental Congress, and rendered the Revolution » success, Our finances are not so desperate as when Rongat Mounts came to the rescue, but they soou will be ifthe present system of employing incompetent officials is persisted in. The Tamonw can render effective aid iu inducing an immediate reform in this respect, and we trust thes it will cast ebout in the ranks of our successtu! merchants sod bankers for o Roarat Mounts as Socrotary of the Treasury, who shall * receive the homage of a rescued peo- ple ; Increased Postal Facilities. Mr. Dennison, the new Postmaster-Genera!, dur- ing his brief term of office, haa already succecded in effecting several important improvements in his department—not the least of which is the adoption of arrangements for awifter postal facilities between Now York and the Bouth and Wost, The following ie the substance of an arrangement !atoly enterod into by him with the railroad companies; First—The Postmaster-Cieneral, having assembled the leading representatives of the routes between here and New York, said to them that when the question of domg away with the Camden and Am- boy Railroad monopoly had come up in Congress, they basi always claimed the Jetters, When now it was such aa to enable the transmission of mals tn ten hours, be would tell how he wanted it done, He wantel the number of cars on the mai! trains Minit ed: the matl trains ulways given the right to the road as against all other trains: andi be further proposed that, these means having been taken to insire the <telivery of the mails between the two points tn ten hours the two roada should be held pecuniariiy responatble for making the time in every case, except when an unforesoen und clearly unavoidable § should prevent. The row assented to all this, revised their time tables, ar- renget for uniting the weight of the mail trains, and proposed to bem making the trp in ten bours within & couple of weeks Beond— Peonsylvenis Central, Northern Central and other roads then arranved to change ther connections to suit this New York arrange- ment, and to sborien to ike manner the time for mail delivery weetward, Third—The New York and Erie Road has been notified that the mails uniler the new arrangement can be taken from New York to Philadelphia, and then sent West more promypxly than it is taken ofa Dunkirk, and that, unless it can do Letter, the great through mails must go by the shortest rove. A circulur has been issued to all the leadmy railroads, asking that all time tables, and every chanye in time ta- bles, be forwarded to the De ment. They are to be patinto the bands of clerks who are to note every iailure in the deitvery of a through mail on time, end inquire what road caused the delay, and roport ascoriiugly, Every delay thus reported will be charged the roud caumng it, and bo assessed which will be de- ducted frou the next payment to the romd Jor mail transportation, Heavy iraine wiil in no case be taken a8 an excuse for # tnilu.e to connect or for tardy connectivua, the ground be.ng takea by the Departmeot thet mai! twaing must on no account be mone so heavy a8 to prevent sper frou, making & speody time, Tuene tour arrangewectsy it is Willdo something lowurus remecymg the ies C Leroy W put bas been imede.
