THE OBJECT OF THE CAMPAIGN.
Nothing but a great blunder or a great
Misfortune can now prevent General GuartT
from gaining the grand victory of the war,
and these are improbabilities, for the Army
of the Potomac, in this brief but glori
ous campaign, has been handled with a skill
which justifies the national trust in its
commander, and has fought with an energy
which no army has surpassed. We have
reason to rest an absolute trust in this
tremendouS twiny, after reading the im
perishable record of its deeds in the past
eight days. Its victories thus far have
been decisive. Vast advantages haye been
won ; the inferiority of the enemy is
Proven and at the end of Ibis terrible
week we -have positive knowledge that
General LEE and his legions are virtually
defeated, even if their power of resistance
be not altogether destroyed. The failure
of the campaign may be among the .pos-
Abilities, but it is not among the probabili
ties of war.
The army which LEE now commands in
cludes every man who could possibly be
withdrawn from the defence of other parts
Of the Confederacy, and it is probably the:
largest rebel army that.has ever confronted
us hi Virginia. It is nothing less than the
poiver of the rebellion, and, in
fflghting it, we light not a. part, but the
whole. It is this fact which gives trait-
Seendent interest to the struggle ; interest
far superior to that in any other campaign,
East or West. Never before did we have
the entire rebellion concentrated before us,
and never was such an opportunity of
striking at one point a blow which shall be
felt along the whole line. Victory in Vir
ginia means what it never meant before :_-
victory in Tennessee, South Carolina,
Louisiana, Texas. On the Po we are fight
ing for far more than Richmond, for
=thing - less than the possession of the
'Whole South.
This is the gigantic scope of the cam
paign. This is why BUTLER holds BEAL , -
atEGAIM 11101;0111eSS at Petersburg ; why
EIIEILIDAN destroyed the railroad in the
rear of LEE ; lvlty GRANT 'does not
wish merely to defeat the enemy, but
fghts hard every day anal will not dire
him time to retreat. This is why the Go
vernment has concentrated such an itn-
incnse force, sending every veteran. to the
front, and emplo3ing new troops in gar
rison duty. The object of the campaign is
the annihilation of the offensive power of
the rebellion, and the reduction.of the war
from the dimensions of a mat national
contest to those of a great riot.
At the late hour of this writing, a.tele
gram from the Secretary of War announces
that LE£ retreated on the night of the 12th,
rind VitS_ to have been at once pursued by
the whole army- From Gen. BUTLER we
have the - news of an advance on REAURE
GAim's entrenchments, and the skirmishing
preliminary to a areat battle. From the
front, the news is sent that the gallant
i5naEL has also taken part in the great move
'Client, destroying twenty-six miles of the
Lynchburg and Charlottesville Railroad.
These are all movements which show that
The Government and the Lieutenant Gene
ral do not aim merely at one of those ordi-
teary victories which Rai to decide wars.
If, then, we do all that we are trying to
do, we shall certainly capture Richmond
and all :Virginia, and make it impossible
for a first-ela. , ,rs. rebel :only to again defy
our poWer. We shall begin, the actual
'work of the suppression of the rebellion,
Tor we shall have conquered it. The
Southern Confederacy will no longer exist,
even. in the faith of its own leaders. All
clanger of European recognition will be
Over. Inevitably, in a year or less time,
the authority of the - United States will be
Tespected in every State, and the dream of
a zreat slave empire in America will pale
before the realii - 2, , of the grand and lade-
Structible Republic: This, if we do ail
that we attempt. But even failing in ibis,
nothing but disaSter it would be unrea-
Somible to expect, can prevent General
Gnlcts7 from Iv - inning a victory which even
his past achievements cannot parallel.
But :with
. the greatest of triumphs the
'work-will not be over. This war - will not
be :ended With the positive defeat of the
onemv, , for the South will not accept de
feat It will fi . 6llt till itsfighting power is
annihilated, and then its moral Opposition
must be encountered. Nothing - can give us
pew but suiting:l6ll.z war ; after that, jus
tice and maananimity to the extreme.
Justice to oursciveg and humanity in the
total abolitiOn of slavery by the authority
of the nation, and, if need be, by the power
of an army to execute ; magma - lability in
the treatment of those who are now our
enemies, but whom - We must make better
friends than they have ever been since the
Southerner and Northman fought side by
Ode in the RevolutiOn. The statesman,
When the war is ended, will have a task
equal in difficulty and: value to that now

futurc:of the nation Twill:not be less danger-

LETTER FROM "OCCASIONAL . "
WASHINGTON, May 13, 18G4
Yesterday was filled with rumors, but
the evening left us some valuable filets, and
in higher hopes than usual. It was lute.
restingto hear all that was surmised, and
to note how gradually the improbable melt
ed away as the hours rolled on. Mr. Wash-
Wive, of Illinois, who brought the de
spatch from General Grant in which that
brave and progressive leader so briefly - an
nounced his advantages and his purpose " to
fight it out on dais line, if it tare an sum
mer"—Mr. Washburne was fairly run
down With inquiries. Everybody wanted
to hear reliable news, and yesterday, as I
passed through the hall of the House, I
saw him in the cloak room surrounded with
auditors, and telling, for, probably, the
twentieth tilne, his experience in "the
Wilderness." His descriptions are graphic
and clear, and his confidence in the as
sured success of our arms unbounded. As
I said yesterday, such testimony is invalua
ble. It is right also to say that the Presi
dent is in the best mood. He does not
allow himself to indulge in extravagant
exultation, and never yet has been known to
give way to despondency. He is always
cheerful. The despatches of Secretary
Stanton are brief and satisfactory pictures
of the progress of our arms. TiSrothing is
exaggerated and nothing withheld. I saw
him last evening, and he - was as calm and
composed: as if he felt that all was well.
And if, as I. now believe, a great. Union
victory : is sure to crown this marvellous
week of battle and of blood, to no one man,
save only Grant himself, will the nation
be more indebted than to the Secretary
of War. The splendid system of prepa
rations for the conflict, in every one of the
branches of the military service—the COlll
- the Quartermaster's Depart
ment, the Surgeon General's office, &c.,
&c.-is due to his vigilance, forethought,
constant :labor, and stern impartiality. It
may be many days before the final
_and
conclusive blow is struck upon Richmond,
but every sign this morning, and every*
word of the news that is comiag in from
:the front, promises triumph. Next Sunday
will be, I believe, a day of grateful thanks
giving and praise, anti a bright contrast
to the agony and suspense of the beginning
of the week. OccAstozzA.L.

4,larrlson's Opinion of the President.
At the celebration of the 31st anniversary of the
Anieilean Anti-Slavery Society, in New York,
William Lloyd Garrison, in reply to Wendell
Phillips, thus eritielced the Administration
Our friend Phillips has said, very truly, that the
American people have laid down the principle that
once in four years they mean to look their Adminis
tratian in the thee, and see if it is worth while to
change But they have not committed them
selves to the one-term principle—they have not
been so foolish as that; they say that every four
Nears they will look and sec whether they will
change their President or not but they hold to the
principle that they may keep hint in office for eight,
twenty or fifty years, if he and they live long
enough:. and they like each other well enough.
ppl a ase.] So they are coming together thi6 00a
son to look at Lim; and I can only express the con
viction of my own mind, that when they shall come
together. and shall look the fact in the lace, tha-t no
inan in ibis nation is now so hated and detested by
the rebels of the South and all at the North who sym
pathize with the reliefs, as Abraham Lincoln, they
will make up their minds that he will do to "run
the machine" four years longer. [Enthusiastic ap
plause and cheers.]
A - Voice. Butler is more hated,
The President continued : Grant that there
arc many sad thint,4 to look in the face ; grant that
the whole of justice has not yet been done to the
negro ; grant that here and there there are things
which arc to be deplored and to be redressed 5 still,
looking at the question broadly, and comprehen
: sivelv and philosophically, I think the people will ask
anoiher question—whether they themselves have
been one hair's breadth in advance of Abraham Lin
coln 1 [Applause.] Whether they arc not conscious
that he has not only been fully up with them, Mitt
en the whole, a little beyond them I [Applause.]
As the stream cannot rise higher than the ii.Mll
- in, so the President of the United States, Amena
ble to public sentiment, could not, if he wished to
to it, transcend public sentiment in any direction.
f dattSe.] For my own part, when I remember
tha friels through which he haspassed, the perils
which have surrounded him—perils and trials un
known to env Man, in any age or the world, in offi
cial slation-4then 1. remember bow fearfully eor
rtiti iraz the public sentiment of the North, to say
nothing of the South; when I remember what he
has had to deal with; wheal remember hoW nearly a
inajorit v, even at this hour, is the seditious element
td the North; and then remember that Abraham
Lincoln has Struck the chains from the limbs ofmore
than three millions. ofslaves {applause]; tha t he has
expressed his earnest desire for the total abolition - of
slavery; that he has implored the Border States to
get rid of it; that he has recognized the manhood
mod citizenship of the colored population of our
rellatrY i that he has Brinell upwards of a him - area
ihomand of them, and recognized them as soldiers
under the fl ag; when I remember that this SAchni
nistretion has recognized the independeneflof Libe
ria and Hayti ; when I remember the t it has struck
a death-blow at the foreign slave-trade by granting
the Atli" of seareh: when 1 remember that we have
now nearly reached the culmination of our great
struggle for the suppression of theyebe Ilion and its
ran: e, T do not feel disposed, for due, to take this
occasion, or any occasion, to say anything very
ha rSlll , y against Abraham tineoln. [Loud and pro
longei. applause.]
ilir. Garrison then introduced Wm. Howard Day,
a colored man; whose eloquent speech concluded
will: the following fOrGiVie
_picture of Southern
slavery:
I have been asked to describe slavery. If I were
a painter 1 would attempt it. I would erect in
the corner there a huge engine, working from day
light to dark, and 'from dark to daylight, busy,
busy, busy, with its iron arms crushing the body
slut .the soul. I would place beyond it the re
mains of the victims who have already passed
through the machine—already has it destroyed its
millions—and even now there are hundreds of
thousands chained for its murderous purposes.
And yet the work goes on ± Listen, as its ponderous
wheels creak over the bones of innocent men, and
women_ and children. And there I would din; a pol
nearly filled with clotted bled, that its stench might
ci ice up continually to remind us of the cruelties of
elal. cry. And there I would make the entrance to a
tomb iind part prison, leading on and on to the Mexi
can tildf, 'With the living slave I would place the
mangled remains, the heart's best affections, the
unrealized-desire , - the hope for freedom, the aspi
ration for a higher existence, the manhood. I
would raise over it a mound and I would picture
s=ane one like Lovejoy, and Work-, and Burr,
and Thompson, and Torrey, and Sohn Brown,
walking among the graves, rolling away the
:tone from the door of the prison-sepulchre, and
letting in the light of freedom. And there I would
Slow relentless persecution following them LOVC
-10,7 With rifle Work and Torrey with a peniten
tiar y sentence, George Thompson and others with
Tle, and Wm. Lloyd Garrison with a rope around
his ntel, and a prison for his home. I would erect
in the centre there a heartless, hellish image With%
iant's strength, a scorpion's sting, and a hyena's
heart, to clutch each of us as we entered those doors,
and in hie lap a huge cop to reeeiye your hard earn
ings, as the daily demand of the demon to sustain
his system. I would crown nimiting. I - would then
close up every window here but one, that the work
of darkness might go on, with only light enough to
make it more dismal. I would then go up and down
the lnnd, and bring men and women to see it as it is
—until its impression should be daguerreotyped
upon the soul—until men and women should feet
that liberty is above all price, and that slavery must
die.

tion with Hancock, and his left is now actively en

GENERAL. H.:GALE'S DESPATCH
WASEINGTON, May 13.—The extra ster says the
following despatch has been received from General
Rain. Ingalls ; chief quartermaster of the Army of
the Potomac. It bring positive information froM
the front as late as noon yesterday
"We have made a ten-strike to-day. Hancock
went in at daylight. He has taken over 4,000 prison
ers and over 25 guns, and is still fighting. Every
body is fighting, and have been tbr eight days.
" We shall have them this pop, though it may take
a day or two more. They fight like devils.
"Our losses are heavy—cannot say hoW many.
"Hancock captured Gen. Ned. Johnston and two
other generals, besides lots of lower grade.
"The old Republic is firm; bet your pile on it .
Grant is a giant and hero in war. MAIM our gene
rals are gallant, and our men—the world never had
better.
"Tours, in baste." -
THE RETREAT OF GEN. LEE—PURSUIT--
ENTHUSIASM OE THE ARMY.
WAsitimprox, May 13.—A1l the reports from the
Army of the Potomac continue to inspire additional
confidence in ottittillimate success.
Our means of supply and reinforcement are abun
dant, and troops arc constantly being sent to the
front.
Information was reenived here to-night that this
morning our army moved out with their usual en
thusiasm to attack Lee. -".
They were disappointed in not finding the rebels
in force where they expected.
Otu troops, however, pressed on the enemy's rear .
It was not known whether they had merely fallen
back to a stronger position or were in retreat.
THURSDAY'S BATTLE—ADDITIONAL
DETAILS.
HEADQVARTEna STH AUMY CORPS IN TILE
FIELD, May 12-7 A. M.—Major General ' Hancock
made a brilliant capture at four o'clock this even
ing. An entire rebel division. including Major Ge
neral Ned Johnson,
commanding; Brigadier Gene
ral George Stewart, and Brigadier General Robert
Johnson, commanding brigades between two and
th ree thousand prisoners. and two -batteries of six
pieces : each fell into our hands.
Taking advantage of the storm and darkness last
evening, General Hancock managed to change the
Position of his troops unobserved by the enemy, and
while the darkness and fog still prevailed, pounced
on them this morning "like a wolf on the told." He
took his captives completely by surprise, and,
having sent his prisoners securely to the rear, turned
their own guns on the enemy in the vicinity,
As I write, this and other batteries are sending
shells among the enemy at a rapid and destructive
rate. The skirmishers are also pretty heavily en
gaged, and there is every indication of another
severe battle.
The news of General Hancock's. capture has in
spired our forces with renewed enthusiasm. As the
news first spread—and such good news always I
spreads rapidly—the woods, where our infantry
columns lie, rang with deafening and prolonged
shouts of rejoicing..
The following 'from General Meade was issued
last evening, and was read to the troops. Its effect
tan be imagined ;
"HEADQUARTERS, CAVALRY Corps, May 10,
1804.—Major General Jleade. Headquarters Army of
the Potomac:—GENknxi.: I turned the enemy's
' right and got into their rear. Did not meet sufficient
cavalry to stop inc. Destroyed from eight to ten
miles of Orange Railroad, two locomotives, three
trains, and a very large amount or supplies. The
enemy were making ii - depot of supplies at Beaver
Dam. Since I got into their rear there has been
great excitementamong the inhabitants and with the
army. The citizens report that Lim is beaten.
1 Their cavalry has attempted to annoy my rear and
flank, but have been run oft. I expect to fight their
cavalry south of South Anna river. Rave recap
tured five hundred of our llloll — two colonels.
" Yery respettfully, your obedient servant,
“.e. M. SHERIDAN - ,
"Major General Commanding."
Everything looks most promising for further suc
cesses. ' General Grant has got the entire army in
just the pOition he wishes it, and, with what is
doing in front and on the enemy's rear and flanks,
it cannot take lunch longer to firing this series of
battles to a final and victorious close.
- LATER, 11 A. :11...—A despatch arrived at this me-
Ment, announcing' ( the capture of seven thousand

EDWIN M. STANTON,
Secretary of War,
51 - yrrs - I - I.vANTA C. H., Va., May 13.8 A. M.
To Hon. E. N. Stanton, Secretary of War:
Lee abandoiled his position during the night,
Whether to occupy n npw one in the vicinity or to
make a thorough retreat is not determined. One
division of Wright's and one of Ilancocl, - .'s are en
gaged in settling the question, and at 7.30 A. M.
had come upon his rear guard. Though our army
is greatly fatigued from the enormous efforts of
yesterday, the news of Lee's departure inspires the
men with fresh energy. The whole force will soon
be in motion, but the heavy rain of the last thirty
six hours renders the roads very diftleult for wagons
and artillery. .
The proportion of severely wounded is greater
than in any Or either of the previous days' fighting.
This was owing to the great 1150 made of the artil
lery. CHARLES A. DANA.
Major. General Dir, New York:
The Acting Surgeon General reports that of five
hundred patients irom the recent lmttlo-fields, ad
mitted into the Harewood Hospital, not one of them
will require any surgical operation, and that, in his
opinion, two-thirds of the whole number of wounded
will be fit fOr service in thirty days.

To the Editor of The Press:
Sin : At noon to-day a party or mutual riends
were reading of the despatch on Third street, an
nouncing the death of General Owen, when one of
them made the remark that he was glad that
General Owen was killed, and the reason ho gave
for this gratification was that the General had sold
his Dernoerutie principles for a brigadiorShip. This
is an illustration how Copperheadisnt so hardens
the heart as to, gloat over the death of a Union man
and t brave soldier, one who loved his country
above party, and who, from the day Sumpter was
fired upon, has boldly asserted Ids views, and an
nounced his purpose to sustain the Administration
in its endeavors to crush the rebellion.

The Hot Weather.
The extreme heat of the past few days is almost
unparalleled so early in May, and wo are not sur
prised that it has caused a decided commotion in
classes of business that are most effected by such an
upward tendency of the mercury. People, for ex
ample, who had hitherto found their kitchen ranges
to answer the double purpose of Cooking, and at the
came time contributing to the 'comfort of the houso
by Warming it, have suddenly embraced the idea
that inside Kitchen Ranges, instead of being a com
fort, are a nuisance. Stove and Range men, per
consequence, have had a vexatious shower of cus
tomers; each anxious to outstrip all rivals in having
his "case" attended to. Having ourselves been
placed in the above-described uncomfortable cate
gory, we at once made a bee lino for the Headquar
ters of the stove trade in Philadelphia (the cele
brated Stove and Range Warcrooms of Mr.
James Spear, 1116 and 1118 Market street), to
remedy this domestic difficulty - and see what
science had devised for summer cooking, with a
reasonable degree of comfort for the cooks.
We there found, to our entire gratification,
a most complete, compact, and convenient Mange,
one of, which we ordered immediately to be tram
ferred to our back kitchen, where it was installed
for service with great promptness, and has added
(so it is whispered in the culinary department) at
least a thousand dollars to the value of the house
upon receiving which information we felt satisfied
with the investment. Instead of being suffocated
with heat in the back part of the building, the whole
house is now cool and delightful. We do not wish
to be personal, but it strikes the writer that builders
commit a very foolish blunder by erecting dwelling
houses, and not furnishing them with one of these
inimitable gas-burning. cooking ranges for the outer
kitchen at once, instead of being compelled eventu
ally to turn out the worthless things that arc usual
ly introduced and procuring the Spear Range after
ward. Builders, or others, who arc making alte
rations or improvements in houses, we hope, will
profit by this hint.
While at Mr. Spear's headquarters, or rather the
headquarters of the business of which ho is the
most enterprising representative in America, we
took the liberty of looking through his stock, in
which we found an admirable assortment of Portable
- Hanger for small families, together with a great
line of his renowned Anti-Dust Cooking. Stoves,
a great many of which, we are informed, Mr.
Spear is now sending to the country. By the
way, we must not omit to mention that this superior
stove sifts ifs own , coal, which makes it not only a
convenient; but a very economical piece of house
hold furniture at the present high prices of coal.
The demand for this admirable stove last autumn
wttas so great that Mr. Spear was unable to supply
his customers with it, many having been obliged to
wait several weeks before their orders could be
filled, in "View of which fact, we would suggest, CU
pliSNlVOliat it would be well for prudent house
keepers to give their orders for these stoves now, the
hot weather tieing usually a dull season among
Move men—a rule, however, to which Mr. Spear
forms an exception, as he is busy all the year round,
but being always well supplied with a competent
force of assistants, he is generally enabled to meet
the wants of his patrons with promptness and
despatch.
To all our readers who are about emigrating to
the country during the summer, we would suggest
the propriety of carrying with them one of Spear's
Anti-dust Stoves, as we believe it to be indisperisa
tile to the health, comfort, and happiness of every
well-regulated family.
THE GROVER & BAKER SEWING MACIIME.—
This superb Sewing Machine tells its - own story,
and tells it eloquently. The work performed by it
is not equalled on any other machine, either for neat
ness, elasticity, or durability; whilst in the finer and
more artistic kinds of sewing, it is still more, impe
riously .Without a rival. The embroidery which this
celebrated machine alone performs is sufficiently ele
gant to grace the wardrobe of a queen. The ma
chines are put up in different styles of cases, and at
different costs ; they are so easily operated that little
children can, and do operate them With the greatest
ease ; and they are so simple in their construction
that it is next to impossible for them to get out of
order. To all persons, therefore, who wish to pos
sess the best sewing machine in the world, we
would say r by all means visit the Grover & Baker
warcroomf3, No: 730 Chestnut Area, and make your
selections.
THE GUSTATORY PLEASURES or. A GOOD DIE
PER.—We do not adopt this caption with a view to
inditing an essay on gastronomy, but simply to
throw out a few common-sense sanitary suggestions,
and advise our friends where they ought to replenish
the *ants of the inner man when they dine away
from home. In the first place, the Importance of
eating food properly prepared can hardly be overes
timated where the preservation of health is con
sidered an object, This is so important that we
Omni as soon think of buying n book with all the
leaves torn out of it as marry a wife wile lacked the
accomplishment of knowing how to cook, titill, all
this is prefatory to the fact now uppermost to our
mind, to wit: that the best place to dine in Phila.
delphia is at the comfortable and elegantly-fitted-up
Dining Saloons of Air. J, W. Price, southwest cor
ner of Chestnut and Fourth streets. His tables al
ways teem with all the good things of the season,
served in the highest style of the culinary art.
Ilamb and Salad, roast beef and asparagus, spring
chickens, the most elegant desserts, and the finest
wines arc now included in Price's bill of fare. No
wonder that his saloons during dining hours are
thronged with the very first gentlemen of our city.
RUN ro litsg.—When we can be insured against
risk., without charge, ft is Certainly folly to incur
it. Willay this more especially with reference to
the purchase of Sewing Machines. The but Ma
chine extant is the Florence, sold at ON Chestnut
street: Comparison with others has demonstrated
this satisfactorily a thousand: times. It performs
successfully what no other machine has ever at
tempted, and is a universal favorite wherever it has
been introduced, and every machine sold is guaran
tied to give perfect satisfaction, or the money will
be refunded to the purchaser. "
