Of Savannah, are the great achievements of
the campaign. Effects do not cc:uo w ith a

reaped on the field cf el iughter. I'pon tin
rapture of All.inla, the full of Savann ill
fhould have bee j a foregone concluHlon. Kv.vi

Savannah would 1 e the next objective pol.it.
At we did not ascribe less perspicacity to the
Hcbcls, when we ixsceruiiiied how slight was
Iho rejiltancc which SiikkmAjj encountered
tn h mnr,li. we for the first time realized
- the weakness) of the Confederacy. For, with
tunplc time for pn-parution, the Rebels scarcely
Cinl)arrated the movements of Siikiiman's
Columns. Then dawned upon us tlio full
truth conveyed In tho expression of Ukikii
Pon : "The Confederacy U only a shell."
Not It was not the march across (Jeorsla,
HOC the (all of Savannah, that will render the
guune of Shermax glorious as that of a great
military chl"fta!n. It was the maintenance
cf the long line of communication from Nash
ville to Atlanta, the terrible defeats intlictcd
upon the enemy, and the tlnal cot';) tie viainy
j wul&), throwing a heavy fores) to tho
ftoutli of Atlanta, he severed the communica
tions of til. oppouont and compelled the evacu
ation of that place and the retreat of the Hebel
army. For these feats will his reputation lis
emblazoned. Savannah was captured when
Atlanta full.
By the occupation of Savannah we lj jld a
position which must result fatally to the Re
bellion. The Couf-dcrate hhell was hardest
on the BcacoasU One of tho cities of the At
lantic coast was needed as a base ofoperatiotis
and supplies. Ilcuce the enemy made the
Atlantic ports almost impregnable. The nary
(no shame to it) found the Confoderate sea
board a nut impossible to crack; but that
Shell of the Confederacy is now broken from
the inside. On May 0, 1801, we wrote edi
torially in a Philadelphia paper. "Charlmton
cannot be taken by ships." The event has
Justified the prediction in which, whsn we
wrote It, we fervently prayed that wa might
be mtauken.
The Contederacy Is like a rjw of bricks,
ne of which toppling over on tho n-xt,
Involves the whole Hue. Charleston Is tho
text in turn. Tho only way iu which It can
be taken, is that which lu all probability is now
being essayed. If Butler take Wilmington,
and a column of his troops march from any
point norlh of Charleston towards that city,
While Suerman advances from the south, the
capture of Charleston will be inevitable. But
even assuming that Butler Is unable to take
Wilmington, or to march a column towards
Charleston, he can at least prevent reinforce
ments to any large amount from being sent to
Charleston, and Sherman alone will be e.jual
to capturing that city.
GnANT Is not Idle because he is still. Ila
bolds the Eebel Army of Virginia as if in
Closed In a vice. There is no aid to go any
where from that army. In vain did Governor
Buoww, ol Georgia, apjeal and threaten by
turns Savannah was left to its fate. Charles
ton and Wilmington must soon fall. Where
then will Uictmond be P Did not Davih con
Xess, In his great Southern speech, that Geor
gia supplied the Confederacy ? Have not all
Itebcls confessed that they could not do with
out the blockade running at Wilmington?
How then will Richmond fare without either
Georgia or Wilmington, especially as North
Carolina is not very loyal to the Conic Jcratos ?
The Richmond lKiifl may say. as .It did of
Savannah, that all of these cities do not make
tlie Confederacy; but If Bichmoud, Wilming
ton, Charleston, und Savannah lull, wh;.'re is
the Confederacy? Nowhere!
, It is our belief, that the last regular
cumpulgu In the Middle States ended with
Hocu-'b recent defeat In Tennessee. Future
operations there, if operations there be, will
exhibit nothing but a lltiul warfare similar to
that which ensued in the West after l'mcic'.-s
first signal defeat in tho trani-M'uslssipj l De
partment. All armies, all iuL:retU are now
about to converge towards the Atlantic coast.
The Kobulliuu is smouldering, sin altered in
the ashes of the flumes it lighted. It his
almojt burnt Itself out. It will probably
flicker lot g enough to light the ocesn-patli of

Napolkon said: "It is not pei .nltte 1. at

without even a state of Die situatiou of the

be It from us to dlipti'o a ma-clui the tru'h ot .
Which should be so evident. Ind'e.l, we
expressly apply it to those wlio consider I
Sherman ut fault tor not havl g prevented
the escape of IlARffisii's army. Circumstances
Warrant the belief that IIabkke, instead of
preparing to make good his defiance, uttered It
only tor the purpose of lulling Lis opponent
Into the belief that he would ofl'er desperate
resit tance.
It has been said that as the armyofllAB
i EE possessed but one route to escape, the
Union forces should have been able to cut ofi
Ids line of retreat. Doubtless, to provide for
cutting off only one line of retreat, Is far
asier than to provide for Intercepting more
Ibun one ; but It is a wonder that, in such a
rife, the reflection does not arise that, pre
cisely where there Is only one line of r
Veat open to an enemy, and a general is
tubj relieved of uncertainty as to what
lib) opponent will do In case of defeat, so his
Opponent, possessing only one line of retreat,
take tTery precaution lest It may be en-'
tiangared.

there Is no causeway across Savannah KWer.
To proceed: SiifciiMAM arrived upon the
right bank of tho river and Invested the city .
of Savannah. To do this effectually Im w is
obliged to make his linn at leas; e pial in

This operation necessarily required the main

Is great that IIakdkk seeurod tho causeway
on the left hank by a strong force a force so
strong that SmciiM AN could not dispense with
Millit ient troops to make a simultaneous
attack upon the left bank; for the hull
ing of a force there, without es,sy
communication with tho rest of his
lines, might have resulted in Its being over
powered by a sud len concentratljii of the
oliciny. Besides, when wo rocollect that it is
ii. i ntloned that tho enemy's routo lay over
a causeway, wc may bo sum that the ground
on the let bank was not favorable for attacking

while he. no doubt, laid his plans to prevent

properly directed to overcoming iho stubborn
defence which there was reason to believe

We do not know that Siikkmak had the
means to make nn Immediate crossing of tho
stream, even supposing that the occupation
of tlie left bank ol the Savannah would havo
been feasible, lie may have judged it expe
dient to cross without liclng able to carry tlio
project into instant execution. Believing his

A HKW I.mFStATORrtJCTHENi ri tTIOV.
Mr. He.vrv S. Footi:, a Senator in the
lieliel Congress, ami who is by no means the,
w iscst statesman that tho world ever saw, is
yet smart enough to ntltnit, if not to see, In
advance of his fellows, that tho Rebellion is
nearly played out. On this side of the lino of
war, at least, he will receive credit for some
intelligence and more candor, while tho South
ern traitors, whose cause ho Is about to dasert,
would much moro surely secure their best
interest by taking Mr. Foote'h view of their
situation, and, like him, abandoning it, than by
struggling longer against a fate that all signs
now show to be Inevitable.
IIe.niiy S. Foots never was, in all his pub
lic enrcer, it must bo confessed, remarkable
for steadiucss of purpose, and Uls weakness in
that respect may be attributetl to his want of
any flxotl principle or clear ideas of duty. If
lie hud possessed either, he never could havo
been seduced into the fearful dilemma from
which ho is now preparing to escape with his
life, If not with his honor. Nothing but lack
of u ntlei standi ug could, we should think, load
any man into the support of a bad enterprise,
if he had not tho courage to adhere to it iu
its desperate fortunes.
The feebleness of will that gives it up in
extremity is the natural counterpart of the
feebleness of mind tlmt embraced it in tho
outset.
No person, we apprehend, of tho leant sense,
could ever have joined in tho Rebellion
against tho National Government, except by
virtue of some prfouud moral motive, strong
enough to set aside In tho beginning all ques
tion of failure or success, and to cling to tho
Rebel cause with tho desperate devotion of
the martyr who is willing to risk all, even life
itself, for the faith that Is in him.
Footk, however, is not a man of that mould,
lie was vain enough to seek personal advance
ment nnd distinction, or, as Milton would
say, "bud eminence," by engaging In a revo
lution which he fancied might prove trium
phant ; and seeing now his mistake in that
regard, ho Is weak enough to seek safety in
desertion, on pretexts which caunot even
redeem it from baseness. Mr. Footk, it is true,
declares very distinctly that, iu his opinion, tho
Interference of President Jeff. Davis with
the military policy of the Rebellion has brought
ltsai'mics to disastrous defeat; and ho predicts,
j with u sagacity that is worthy of Nai'oi.bon
I, tliut, if iitioit s army should bo destroyed,
nnd SuRUitAN, ntu r taking Savannah, should
go to the aid ol Chant, Richmond must fall;
sud that, with that eud accomplished, the game
ul Southern treason would be up. Since that
prophecy was made it has beeu very nearly
completely fullllletl. llooli's army has been
vuluiilly destroyed; Snt!tMAJ has captured
Suv an null ; and the next grand movement we
umy expect to hear of, Is that Siieuuan,
in ( t.-opc lutiou with the magnificent naval
force Willi which he is, in communication, will
move ug.iin.it Charleston and Wilmington lu
dctull, nnd then close up his splendid campaign
by effecting a Junction with GltAST, and the
capture of the Rebel capital by a combined
uttuck upon ail skies. This is substantially
tho horoscope of the war as Mr. Foote
bus lately drawn it, aud Its speedy realization
will entitle him to the character of a seer.
But It should be remarked now, and here
after born in mind, that Mr. Foote does not
put his threatened retirement from the des
perate adventure in which he foolishly ami
bliudiy embarked, on its obvious failure,
though that is clearly his real reason for run
ning away from his associates In the "bloody
business" which informs against his conscience
and makes him unwilling to meet the
consequences of bis folly and hui crime. lie
prefers to sneak out of the scrap In a manner
which may preserve some ostensible consist
ency with the pretended motive! which
Induced him to get into it ; and he bopes by
that means, no doubt, to cheat future history,
as well as bis contemporaries, with the mise
rable profession that as he only became a Rebel
against a Government which constitutionally
guaranteed civil liberty to every one of its
citizens, because it bad ceased to be free,
k now, in turn, forsakes thut bastard abor
tion of ampin which b helped to create and
uphold, only because It, also, denies him the
faeilom of which he has been In search.'

In the Rebel Congress Is quite M effectually

' press will, In all probability, come to an and
nl oet the same time, ho goes on In the follow

The question whether It Is advisable to con
tinue the payment of bounties to volunteers Is
now being agitated In the City Councils.
I'pon their last meeting, the Common Branch,
by a most emphatic majority, decided to con
tinue the system ; while the at; ion ol the Select
( hamber was postponed on account of certain
members factiously refusing to unswer to their
names, und thus preventing a quorum from
appearing to be present. Iho question comes
up nt the next meeting, ami will undoubtedly
be decided in favor or tlio continuance of the
laymcnt.
This Is eminently proper. The plan can
not but be productive of good. Although cer
tain members declared that the payment of
such sums has procured the nrmy the worst
portion of our population, and compared our
troops to Hessian mercenaries, we cannot but
think that flic personnel or our army can bo
favorably compared with that of any nation In
the world, and that disinterested critics would
decide lu favor of that host "who have gone
forth at the call of their country to protect us
in oi r properties and homei."
The decimation that our ft oops are bought
is false. For a pecuniary compensation suf
ficient to keep their families from want, they are
w illing to enlist, but they are not willing tolleavo
their dear ones to the colli charity of the
world, trusting for their daily bread to tho
petty sum given them weekly by a charitable
committee. Strange as it may appear to tho
wealthy members of our City Councils, two
dollars per week is not sufficient to support a
mother and four children. It is therefore
I merely a mutter of paternal duty, and not of
avaricious love of wealth; and to those
who remain quietly at home, who peace
fully sit In their council seats, who are beyond
the aye of forty-Jive, who pretend to Judge
the motives of those who have gone to fight
iu tlie "sunny South," wa would suggest that
a little experience among the swamps and
j hills of Virginia or Georgia would probably
j enlarge their experience in tlio motives of
i their (ellow-citlzens. It is but just to give to
those who go, nnd wheu the Councils acted
; as they have done they only did their duty to
. tlie soldiers in the field, and to those who are
; willing to go nnd do their duty In the ranks.
' THE NAI.AKIEM OF NTARH.
' The golden rule, as applicable to greenbacks,
Is to pay everybody as you would have every
body pay you. In such times as these it is
! extremely hard to be observed by either party.
I With provisions at an exalted price, It is very
j trying to tho conscience to have exalted
feelings too, and to be continually oppressed
with tho sensation that you arc bound In
honor to give for nn artlclo precisely what tho
i seller declares it fo bo worth. Nothing Is the
public moro willing to pay freely for than Its
amusements. Amusements It must have, and
amusements it is perfectly willing to pay
for. IIow many furors have we had
iu the theatrical and operatic worlJ, when
seats were sold out at a premium, and when
private boxes were run up to a fabulous price 1
Those who are most blaze, those who most
affect, as well a. those who most suffer from
tniiul, will pay tlie most for a pleasure that
they arc by no means certain of, aud that at
best is brief in its duration. It is not to be
wondered at that tho general public Is so eager
to be amused. Men who work hard must
pluy hard. The majority toil hurt! enough for
the wherewithal to keep themselves and fami
lies. The man of pleasure tires himself sooner
and more desperately tbau any oue else. Some
new excitement is his only rest. The beau
must be urbent.
At the placid man of business, the sorene
head of the family, sits in Ins velvet-cushioned
seat not cushioned too much for comfort,
however at the theatre, ho may naturally
ask himself, " Whit is the Income of this very
aiiiu.-lng person who is making me laugh and
cry iu spite of myself?" If the head of the
family were more youthful, the business man
less of a biibiness man, he might be excused
lor the moment, for throwing business, like
physic, to the dogs, snd yielding himself
to the enchantment of the hour. Per
haps even then the practical nature
would pop out, Ami the question would
naturally reiterate itself : "Can it be possible
that this delightful delineator of the Legitimate
makes as much in oue week as I do In a
year? is it iu the nature of things that this
world-renowned artist, whom I remember as
a'Biipe,' should receive a nightly stipend equal
to the yearly salary of my clerks? Can it be
that tho traveling expenses ol this performer
are all paid, including that of a companion,
w hilst I atn obliged to pay my ow n, if I do not
succeed in getting a free puss? Is it at all
reconcilcuble with the order of Providence
that this individual should be permitted, so to
speuk, to strike oil every night, whilst I, after
twenty years' devotion to my trade that Is,
profession have never struck It yet?"
These Ideas, more or less developed, very
naturally occur to the tradesman or profes
sional man us he reclines in the orchestra seat or
dress circle, contemplating the moral Influence
of spangles, or meditating why in actre with
long hair invariably allows a few curls to stray
over the right shoulder, while the rest wave
behind In tousoriul prolmion. Of one thing
be may be certain, however, that be does not
wot dor at the thing any more than the man-sgtr-thsmselves.

trims which nre insisted upon by self-sufficient
. stars, who, like pl.ncrs with lin k always on
tin ir side, pocket, all the profit, wliilit t.ie
j managers pocket all the loss.
Tho managers will doubtless fay that th -y
nre the victims of cin-uinstaiiees ; that they
ftiul tli.il such n st ir Ills (lie lujsc, whilst the
I united t llor s of a fair stock company fail to
j do so; and that if fe y do not aeeed.i to tho
i exorbitant demands of the Hlai-j. plenty of
western managers nre to bn found who will.
Pnitof this reasoning may be true. But, with
respect to the argument about tlie uinatisfae
lorine.ss of stock companies, it maybe urged
that wo havo not always had a good stock
company with us, from which to Jud;n.
Those that we have hud, havo always tilled
the bouses well, and must have been of
pecuniary benefit to tho iniiitgemsnt.
There Is no reason why star prrfonnf-rs
should give less and get more than people in
other proles-sions. They make ttiomaiids
w here people with infinitely more brains mako
hundreds; they are surfeited with applauso
nnd beset witQ sycophantic adulation, uick
nameil criticism ; an J if they do not faro sump
tuously every day, it is only becauso they are
not nil the year round in u sumptuous city,
like Philadelphia. For this Klysian Fields
existence they give us a round of play., vary
ing from three to one dozen; they amuse us
for two or three hours In the evening; they
are ulllieted with a succession of late Severn
illnesses; und they nre occasionally kind
enough to allow themselves to be Induced to
make n lew hundred dollars by I lit; repetition
of a popular play, "in compliance with the
pressing demands ol the public."
The case with which stars make their
money has helped to degenerate the star sys
tem. Actors who are greatly respected as
members of a stock company, subject thom
sclves to deserved ridicule when they attempt
tlie roles of legitimate suns. Leading m u
strike out as eminent tragedians, and walking
ladies hung around the borders, with now and
then incursions into the metropolis as candi
dates for the moral-emotional laurel, or the
bays of the Legitimate. We can afford to dis
pense with wearisome stars for the sake cf
really talented stock companies. Two or three
artists wo could mention fully deserve all the
fume and money they ask for. The rest do
pcivo It in tho sense that they can get it
because managers consent to give il.
