THE DURATION OF THE *AIL The Richmond Examiner of the 29th ult., says : If we hold our own in Virginia till this summer, is ended, the North's power of mischief everywhere is gone. If we lose, the South's capacity for resistance will be broken.. The Confederacy has ample power to keep its place in Virginia;~if _ „,3 with energy and etoisisteney, and this is Me test year of the War, whichever uuns. " We place on record this utterance of one of the most prominent journals at the Rebel Capital, and can affirm that one-half of its closing statement- is true: namely, that if the rebels are beaten in Grant's present campaign, it will certainly' end the war, and the •Federal Government will be finally re-established. To suppose other wise would be to imagine that the laws governing military and financial opera tions are to,be reversed in order to gratify the rebels. The South has been drained of its fighting population, - to a frightful extent. Conscription has followed conscription with merciless rigor, and the Unionists of the South haVe either been murdered or driven as exiles to the mountains or to the Federal lines. The, currency of the Confederacy has .depreciated until twenty-five or thirty dollars are needed to equal one dolti? in gold, and *difference is almost equally wide between greenbacks and rebel notes. The 'luxuries of life have almost utterly disappeared. and the necessaries of exist ence are held at the most exorbitant rates. Europe has effected nothing for the assist ance of Jefferson Davis, and the riots and the secret or open treason of the Northern Copperheads, have been almost equally in effectual. State after State, river after river, has fallen under Federal control, and a re-' inarkably effective blockade seals their At- , lantic coast. In this terrible .crisis the slave-holding aristocracy, gathers its clans for its last fearful contest—its Armageddon! How different is, the aspect of affairs in the loyal States ! With all tile efforts of speculators and traitors, gold has never yet touched 90 per cent. premium, and surely we have enough (if not, too many) of the uxuries of life. The rise in provisions and - other indispensable artiola has been simply in proportion to the increase itrthe premium on gold, and we see no evidellab - whateVer that more suffering than exists in time of peke afflicts the loyal States. There-has not been a severe draft anywhere in the North, nor is the population so`diminished that'vast and constantly increasing trade and commerce cannot be carried on. Emi gration is pouring in at the rate of scores of thousands each month, and call around us we see every symptom of rstrength in the Go vernment and confidence ambng the people. Man for man and dollar for dollar the loyal States are five times as strong as those still in rebellion ; and when we proudly think that right, truth, justice and liberty are on •our side, who can doubt the issue' Truly, 'this should be We final year of the war, and the final attempt to trample underfoot the glorious institutions which have made this Republic the greatest nation of all time. THE DAEISHTROITELE The doom of Denniark was announced when Dybbol , fell. On the basis of that event, which put_ the whole territory of the Duchies, except the Island of ALsen, in the possession of Prussia, the: national confer ence was to meet in London. Having quietly waited and allowed the Germans to dismember the Danish KingcbDm, England and France now consent to hold a conference to put it together again. We do not believe the German States will permit a reunion of the Duchies to Denmark without'a war,and there is no apparent danger of a war, dupe . England and France so carefully abstained from; helping Denmark when her need was sorest. As for this question of the Duchies, we believe it would have been better for their people if they had never been attached to Denmark. But the Western powers made a treaty guaranteeing such a union, and they were bound to stand by it. But they were deceitful or fea.rful, and the treaty,like so many similar ones,has proved to be so much waste paper. England cats a sorry figure in all this business, and we do not wonder that so many'of her people are ashamed of the conduct of their govern ment. THE PATRIOTISM OF_ THE METHODIST CHURCH The General Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, which is now in session in this city, has given unmistakeable evi dences of its sterling patriotisisi'which are worthy of all commendation. All the loyal and doubtful * States are represented in • the Conference, and not-only is no word of en couragement for traitors, or their Northern synapathizers, heard in the deliberationfof the body, but there are the most decided demonstrations of enthusiastic loyalty. The seene yesterday, on the occasion of the flag raising at the church where the meetings of the Conference are held, reminds us of the early days of the war, when the great heart of the people leaped responsive to the call for aid to maintain . the honor of • the Stars and Stripes, which had been insulted in Charleston harbor. There is probably no ecclesiastical body in the - country which more thoroughly represents the sentiments of the great mass of the people 'than the Generaa Conference of the Methodist Epis copal Church, and we hail the evidences of earnest Loyalty_of its members as one of the most encouraging signs of the troublous times we tire in. _ - • BEXOVAL OF THE REBEL CAPITAL. There is no doubt that the rebel seat of government leas been, or is about to be, re moved from Richmond.' The Richmond En quirer, of April alth, says : £The removal of the ieveral branches of the Cabinet departments the South. produces numerous vacancies in the battalion composed of clerks and other employes of the Govern ment." - - The Petersburg Express, of April 27th, announces the passage through that city of "one hundred and thirty ladies employed as note-signing clerks in the Treasury Depart ment," on:their way from Richmond to Co lumbia, S. C. This shows that the rebel Treasury, at least, has been put a little fur ther but of the way of General Grant's - ar mies. SUMMER RESORTS.—We call attention to the p.dycrtlpment of the Summer Resorti on • tho• line of the Reading Raili'Oaa. It will be found in another part of to-day's paper. THE GRAIcD OPERA OF ‘:NOTRE DAME OF PARIS." Having witnessed a dregs rehearsal of the new opera with which the Festiial for the Great Cen tral Fair is tube inaugurated this evening, we can speak understandingly of it. Both as a mUsicsi work and as a stage Spectacle it is unquestionably grand. The first act, in particular, is magnificent; but in the other acts there are admirable situations, with , finely written music for both voices and orchestra. The leading singers are first-rate; and the huge chorus and orchestra, the military band, the organ behind the scenes, and the multitude of supernumeraries combine• to make an ensemble the like of which has never been witnessed in America or surpassed in Europe. The public demand for tickets comes fully up to the splendor of the enter- tainment offered, and from what we hear, there will not be a vacant space in the Academy this, evening. Tomorrow evening the first oratorio of. the Fes. tiTal will be given7-Haydn's Creation, and not Handel' s Judas Afaccabasus, as we first announced. The price of tickets has been put so low that we feel warranted is expecting a great audience. LARGE IMPORTANT POSITIVE SALE OF - DRY GOODS. CARPETS, MATTLNGS,, SUN UMBRELLAS, STRAW GOO ionDS, ike.
