that any other person in Pittsburgh assumed the
responalbility of making any offer whatever Loony

I was the representative in 'Pittsburgh of John
F. Kertn-sd tr. Co., as you are aware, and as such
had the sole and exclusive control of the Interests
of the company. Now, I assert, without fear of
guirediction. that I have never offered. directly
nor indirectly, to any eitiaee of Pittsburgh one

Telegraph; uor has any ethers of Pittsburgh ever
Intimated or hinted to 1110 directly or indlrectlY,

Sherman -nt Sairaunab.
The great campaisx of Sherman, which, no
a startling and magrittleent pageant, has been
slowly rolling, through so many long cresks, hc
fore the riveted once of thlrtfirffillon apectstors,
now approaches its close. So brilliant - in Its
Conception, of such unequaled skill In Ito con
duct, It must now be pronounced an tuiquallfred
success. Whether to its record hitherto the
Ramie seal of triumph in the capture of the
great stronghold of Savannah shall be affixed or.
not, the campaign is alreadyround, swath, mid,
complete. The bisection of the Confederacy,
the march of a victorious army, with measured
and deliberate tread, straight through the heart
of the enemy's territory, for hundreds of miles
the severing of his chains of comninleation be!
twist East and West, thedestruction of bin mil=
- Mary Supplies end storehouses all along the pro
tracted route, these are the results accomplished.
Add we must add to its material fruits, all the
inestlnfatt:e prestige thls bold march has brought
to our acme, and the staggering blow It hu
struck against the enemy's ariteonfidence and
his hopes and prospects for the future.
Not in our eyes, only, but In those of the en
tire South, leaders and dupes alike, this success.
will be duly appreciated. That "deep hurailla-:
Von to the Confederacy . ' which, emoting to
Richmond paper, such a pestetratlon of It from
the Alleghenies to the Atlautic would Involve,
has already fallen. Nor is even thli all.
If Sherman essaying a new campaign of each
difficulty and magnitude, can accomplish
much, what cannot he do In the fature,.with his
accumulated experience at the head of his army .
of veterans ' almost absolutely intact, exultant
over perfect success, and taught indomitable coa
-1 fidence by so many a gallant field from May to
! December? What security is there henceforth
for Savannah, of Charleston, or Wilmthgton ' or
Mobile :I What more seclusion has the very
heart of South Carolina than the powerful State
of Georgia once boasted 7 Even the stubborn
Richmond campaign cannot escape the influence
of She' man's extraordinary sureoss.
"It is clear," says the British Army and Alm/
Gazette, calmly rev.ewing the position of affairs,
" that, so long as he roams about with his army
Inside the Confederate States, he Is more deadly
than twenty Grants, and that:he:nut( be destroyed
if Richmond or onything is tribe oared:" Lee will
probably be forced by this condition of affairs, to,
assume the offensive, because he cannot afford to
let Grant hold his banes whilst Sherman is com
mitting burglary in the Southern mansion." On
the North, on the South, end on friends and foes
alike across the Atlantic, this' crowning success
of the year we may be sure will hare Its proper
weight.
The authority already quoted gives its testi
mony to the meritorious hardihood of the meat
undertaking. "If Sherman," it says, " has
really left his Army in the air, and started off
without a hue to march from Georgia into South
Carolina, ho has done either one of the most
brilliant or one of the most foolish things ever
per formed by a military leader. Ills suecesa or
Is fi4Pore will not determine the question one
way Or the other. The data on which In goes,
and the plan oh which he acts, must really place
Lim among the great Generals or the very'
little ones, and as yet he has assuredly given
indentions that he is 'more likely to be found in
"the first than In the second category." The
enemy received the first news of the astounding
design with an incredulity only ttunperell down
into anxiety by the memory of Life march on At
lanta. Day after day .his .knigh ts of the quill
ridiculed the novel expedition. '.We are still
• incredulous," says the Riehinond Examiner,
"but if It be true that Sherman is now attempt
ing this prodigious design, we may • safely pro
dirt that his march will lend him to the Para
dise of Fools, and - that his magnificent 'scheme
will hereafter be reckoned - • .
"With an the grsmsdeeds that ester Isere done.'.'
Decided as are such testiairtnitda not only to ,
. the gentas'of Sherman but to the valor:of his,

true worth of the Campaign Iles' more In Its eel.'

imme
diate results. It teaches a-lesson JoAnne:a:. It
shows us that we may accompllatt as • much by=
gulag 'where the enemy does not trans 9s
as by taking the mate he preseribee for net: Wa
shall not be satisfied merely wAti measuring our
strength against his strength, but bialtaekingtl
him'in his weakness: The reelstitssa tramp of.
Shaman's legions through the Keystone State of
the Confederacy lumexposed its essential hollow
ne.s. We must be sure that detained will be paid to '
this instruction. Operations hereafter will he con-
ducted with reference to what this campaign .bas
taught. Sherman has added a new chapter to
the art of war by his conduct of movable col
umns. The experiment on the Crimean coast to
which King Lake has accorded so much Impor
tance, was almost. - trilling compared with Sher- •
• man's march of anatit army cut loose from its base
• • St,so
river to the Atttbamsi line, less than a year a s „..ct.
And that successful effort, la Me manner, falls -
Into insignificance, couroared with the grand
march from Atlanta to the Atlantic. It was
conducted with the precision , the lubricity/ and
the promptitude of mechanism.
It most not be forgotten, also, In the flush of
triumph, that the triumph was wrought Out of
danger. Hood's bold and perilous moiement
was reason enough for Sherman's counter-coup.
Hood had assumed the offensive, and threatened
to draw his antagonist back from Georgia to
Central Tennessee. To have followed the ene
my to that Slate would have been the natural
move of a less bold soldier. Lint to play the part
of waiting on his opponent's plans was impossi
ble for Sherman. With characteristic energy '
he struck Into a new path, and gave HoOd a Ito.
land for his Oliver. To appreciate Sherman'a
campaign, therefore, 'we must not only consider
Its Immediate gains, but Its antecedents and the
posture from which it relieved no. And neither
Its present nor its past advantages are so'great
as those in prospect. Aa these lines are mitten,
Sherman knocks at tire gates of Savannah with
his cannon; and Dahlgreu's sailors answer from
their Odra the roar of his batteries Let us
