A writer for the New York Daily Times, 'in
elaborately reviewing the situation in Virginia, ex
presses the highest confidence in the success of the
campaign upon which General Grant has entered in
Virginia, and gives the following reasons for this
confidence:
What are the grounds of this confidence ? They
are, first of all, the reinforcement which the Army
of the Potomac will receive in the leadership of
Grant himself. It is not merely that his great series
of Western victories prove his claim of first-class
generalship, but that his position as General-in-
Chief will give him untrammeled liberty and unity
of command, will enable him to use all the resources
of the nation, and will afford him the means of
general combinations over the whole theatre of war.
These are advantages that no other commander of
the Army of the Potomac ever enjoyed, and they
are immense. The next ground of confidence rests
in the magnificent army which General Grant is
massing in Virginia. Its mere numerical propor
tions are spoken of as something portentous. But
not only is the Army of the Potomac strong in its
numbers—it is strong in its organization, its com
manders, its discipline, its morale The sweeping
changes made by Grant in the interior of the Army
of the Potomac—however much they may have
shocked some sensibilities—have all been to the im
provement of the army ; and no ono who knows the
spirit and quality of that army can fail to appreci
ate the delight and confidence Grant has in it. The
next ground of confidence is that the strength of the
army Grant has under his command and his unfet
tered freedom of action will enable him to venture
on a plan of campaign entirely different from any
of those several campaigns that have had Richmond
for their object."
ler It is admitted that, if the war should
be brought to a close to day, tie national debt
would be at least $4,000,000,000 At the com
mencement of the war there were les; than
4,000,000 slaves. If they were all made free
now they would cast $l,OOO each—besides the
loss of one white man fur every four slaves.
Rather an expensive way of getting rid of
slavery.
Men Cow.—We learn that Mr. Samuel
Flock, of Richmond, had a e.tw bitten by a
rabid dog Some two weeks since. The eow
was chained in the stable to prevent her
doing an:, damage. She raved, pawed,
bawled, and made great exertions to break
loose. Several other cows, and many dogs
were bitten by the same dog, in that neigh
borhood.— Doylestown Democrat.
NEW:ENGLAND GENERALB.—The'Albany sir
gus Bays:
New-England has given to the war that lar-
°enemas philanthropist and disgraced General,
NEAL Dow, the coarser and rapacious BUTLER,
and the sleek and corrupt BANKS. From the
day of Big Bethel down to the disaster on Red
River, their paths have been marked by ea.
lamities and shame.
Tax Caors.—The injury to the crops by
winter lingering in the lap of spring, has not
proved as serious as anticipated, and the
Western journals speak encouragingly of
averaging from to the usual averaging.—
It is stated that about 2,600,000 acres were
•own for wheat in the west last fall, and that
there should have been ayield of 31,209,000 :
bit, 20,000,000 bushels is hardly expected.

PB.EBERVING ENVELOPE.
The preservation on the letter Itself of the POST-MARK
and POSTAGE-STAMP, generally destroyed with the de
tached cover, has long been deemed a matter of the first
importance. This desideratum is now triumphantly secured
by this Ingenious invention. Many obvious advantages
must arise from the general use of this envelope.
First -Increased Safety by additional sealing; the stamp
connecting the envelope and letter securely together • and
this is never liable to be omitted, though the slicking of
the flap is frequently neglected or Imperfectly done.
Second--Security against Impertinent Intrusion; the
letter and envelope being firmly attached by the stamps,
and inclosure cannot be inspected even if the flap be clan
destinely opened.
Third—Safety against Abstraction of Valuable Indio.
sures. If the flap be left unsealed, or opened with feloni
ous intent, it will be impossible to open the letter and take
thence bank notes cud drafts without so mutilating the
envelope as to insure detection.
Finerth—Security for the free payment of the Postage;
an the stamp, when once properly placed in this window,
cannot be removed without Its destruction.
_ .
Fiffh—Advantage therefore to the Government; by the
effectual destruction of every stamp in its first use.
Biag/s—Pacility to the Post Office Operations • by a uni
form location of the stamp in the upper right hand corner,
which is the most convenient position for the Poet Office
mark.
••• • -
lieventh—Verification of the Mailing; by securing on the
letter itself - the legal evidence of the time and place of It
being mailed. This has long been esteemed so desirable,
that many prudent persona are constrained to dispense
with the use of envelopes, that they may have the post
mark on the letter; and others take the precaution to pin
the envelope again on the letter for identification.
MOM—Certainty of the Date and Place on the Letter,
which are no frequently omitted by writer. in oareleasneea
or hurry. . _
Ninth—Ornamentation ; which, though some may think
of small importance, certainly meets the approval of all
persona of taste.
Thrith--Cost. Notwithstanding the many and unrivalled
advantaged' of the "Stamp dealing Envelopes,^ they will
be furnished at a very mall advance upon the prices of
those not having the benefit of this patent.
