Eittrpriee of Geneiai Lee at General
Grant's Movement... His Army too
Mach Reduced to Aright in an Open
Flgnt".Tremulotte Opinions in Rich..
monA Concerning thcA?respect•—The
Evicnation onsldered
a Military Necessity.
The Washington correspondent of the New
York World, writes on the 79th:
Tho last private advice' received from
Richmond represent Cern! Lee as herong been
eamptetety taken try rorpre by the =velment of
the Charm forces toward the James—an erts
for whirl he was in no, way prepared. MS
hope was that General :Grant rronld remain
on the Clsiekahominy, and direct ell hi' efforts
direction. Thia imddon 'chino pf base
having upset all the calenlatierit of the rebel
loader, he has been forW to give up• all his
preparations, and to transpose his system of
defense elsewhere.
. . .... .
This explains why our troops have been en
abled to accomplish their change of bate
withont.any opposition,; and to march almost
in lighter the rebels withorthanyAttempt on
their part to hinder their admen. Another
reason more patent yet, is Pat their' forces are no
much reduced by the various battles in teltieb they
/tare been rogag!clp that they can hardly afford at
present tofigbt an the open Aide • They roust
neonatally have a-line of rifle pits and earth •
slake In front of them ,afore they venture to
ere. This hay been ot#Stingly illnatrated in
the present advance. of ahr own troops thransh
Namaland antithe Long Bridge, ani opera.
'Gan which it wax in the power of Gen. Lee
to pretreat bad he been strong and wise
enough to do it.
Since General Grant 11111 safely eeeched the
Jamas, the impression in Richmond ie the: he
will build a strongly Lutrenchcd camp on the
shore of the river, or perhaps &fail himself
'of that ,already prepared by General Butler,
mid - march from that point in the direttion of
Port Darling, which it tslitit intention, they say,
to tabs by storm. . Once in possession of that li
fort he will advance on Petersburg, and pro—
ceed from that city, in ;the vicinity of which
General Lee is likely to give him battle,
straightforward to Richmond.
The uneasluen of the rebels Is not, how
ever, cauedso much by th e fear of having a
battle, as by the appall:maiden of seeing all
.the'.,,eonaranatcations - nonneithrg Ithihmond
'With lite-latitrior cut and destroyed. They
kriew well that their cavalry is incapable of
competing with 09114 and to protectefdoienbly
the roads through which they draw their men,
their supplies, - and their ammunition; and
tlintlheir capital may, tit any moment, be in,
sainted and deprived or the manna by which
it has been hitherto endbled to resist..
This is onset the moil perplexing prospect
of the rebels, one which they. en now 'discos.
sing with thattraittestnesi and glow of;feellng
istairds:;theY - bring . in- I, their discussions.discussions.
'Slimy ire °felts ophil r n
that if Gen. Gnat

This is the gloomy conclusion to which the
rebels hare arrived sines the transfer ,of our
troops from the Chlokshotainy. At the sums
time Richmond, repreienteB by tibiae 'writers
u being wen stocked with all kinds of grain,
has ,hardly enough toisubsist two months to

Guam. BierrlA3D..-1112. J. P. Muni, MITOUii
Hall, Fifth street, has received from Maim.
T. B. Peterson A Brothers, Philadelphia,
their American reprint of a recently published
English novel, by the "Author of ' , Margaret
Maitland,'" entitled" Self—Sacrifice; or, The
Devoted Sister," which appears to be worthy
of the name and fame Of Its greatly giftedand
highly accomplished authoress. Manyyrsars
have now passed away since the writer of this
notice, in a letter from one of the most die.
thiguished historians of Scotland, received an
intimation of the authorship of " Pessaglis
the Life of Margaret Maitland," the publica
tion of which had jest then been announced;
and well does he rememberthopleseurewhich
the success of that most successful book gave
himself and other Lrleads, not only because
of the interest of oar Edinburgh friend In his
relative, but still more for the sake or the
'fair unknown' herself,— , whose star was
arising with so pure and ea spiclotis a
light above the mist-velled . hiPt of
Scotland. We are therefore to day adding
- pleasure to pleasure, when its rec,rd that the
loader; Crirs — c; has said of this new work:
The popularity - of that 'oat rea?^lkahle
anoopa- of meet reniarkable
work, 9 p lszgarei r Maitland," will be evanstir
passedby thatof thenewone,lielf Sacrifice.' !'
And the Adamson is even more 11112phttiO in Its
praise, speaking 'thus tit the anther and her
work:.'Vrith a power possessed byno female
writer of our day, unless it be by - the lainephed
Giza, Aguilar, Its fair author atrikOs oneyeri
page for the hearts and Into/ Wets .oft her
clatters, and rarely fails to touch the or
take Abe latter captive. As &plan:re:of the
vast power of s Salf•Ssovilice 1 . it has scarcely
ever been approached—oestlinly never at
oned.". ,
