..The already opened campaign against
Richmond is truly on a grand scale and
worthy of thepublic interest that hinges
upon the restiTC"'. 'there appear to be
five different divisions or lines of oper
ations. First;-the Trend army of the Po
tomac, numbering probably 150,000 men
under Gen: Makin, sriberdinate to Gen.
GRANT in person, moving by the Rap
pahafftfock, Rai:bided, Chancellorstille,
Spottsylvania, &c. Second, a force of
men , -estimated as hip as eighty thou
. siaudt. bride; tieriiit, is up'the' York
River at West Point, to the east of Rich
mond, and probably occupies the base
line of the future operations against the
rebel capital. Third, the force of Gen.
' BUTLER, at CitTPOillt, south of Rich
lignid, and numbering about 100,000,
wift•Vis designed to cut LEE'S commu
nications with the south, and hold BEAL%
nitomattb in check, who is represented to
be at Richmond with a force of from
18,000 to 80000. leurth the expedition
• up IleSherthitdbah, under Gene. COT/CH
and SIGEL, to which is opposed a force
of some 18,000 men under LowarrnitzT,
who has taken position at Charlottesville.

THEE EWS.
Yesterday's Gazette contains the fol
lowing important announcement:
We observe that the Pittsburgh Post the or
gan of the Democratic party of Allegheny coun
ty, appeared yesterday morning without one
line of editorial reference to the gigantic and
momentous struggle now transpiring in Vir
ginia.
Supposing the Post had contained a
column of fussy twaddle, about our sue
cess,it would, we presume, have passed
for a wonderful degree of anxiety on
our part for the success of our arms:
Not being given to that sort of patriot
ism, however, we left it for those who
have so fer, done nothing else towards
crushing the rebellion. Loud and in
cessant professions, are only evidences
of insincerity, and the emptiest things al
ways reverberate the loudest sound. Do
you take, good sir; do you take?
ecial of
the N. Y. -Trilowne thus writes sop f the old
battle field of Chan c ellorsville :—Evi den -

battle which occurred-here one year ago.
The graires of our Men, buried by the
enemy in immense trenches, are visible
on every side, and in many places scores
of skulls grin horribly at the mournful
observer: Trees cut down by solid shot
and shells, and pierced wad scarred by
ballets, meet the eye on every side. The
remains of a Sergeant killed in the battle
were discovered and identified by bis
former comrades to-day, and with rever
ential hands and with fitting marks of re
spect, consigned to their final resting
place. His remains were onlr identified
by certain peculiarities of uniform. The

THE VIRGINIA CAMPAIGN-
The Defences of Richmond.
The little which tii War Department
has allowed to be t#/flitted relating
to the late bloody apAptilotetighting,
in Virginia, is to im p ress
reader with the mail;' fl task
imposed upon GeneraT4-44.\*-
sion was and is, tl4'pti* of Ric
mond; and the atutOin resistance
the rebels under Lite, offered at the
very door of operations, is indicative
of the desperation with which they in
tend to resist GRANT'S advance towards
their Capital. But before reaching Rich
mond, there are several ugly places
through which our forces will have
I to fight their way, provided LEE
feels himself able to make a stand.
Allowing, however, that what we hear
is true, that LEE is on a rapid retreat
towards Richmond, and that that strong
hold will have to be taken, as Vicksburg
was, by siege, it is proper here to en
deavor to ascertain its strength and
power of endurance. We do this in or
der to inform our readers of the gigan
tic undertaking of our army of the Po
tomac, and also to give them patience
in the event of successes not coming to
us so rapidly as hoped for.
During tue year 1863—we learn from
a very reliable authority, the number of
forts around Richmond and Manchester
(for the latter place is now included in
the defences) was increased from thirty
two to forty-eight; and this includes
only the larger and principal forts, and
not the smaller batteries. It is not gen
erally known that Gen: Beduregard was
in Richmond for several weeks during
the Spring of 1863, during which time
his views in regard to the defences of
the city were adopted; and they have
since been carried out. The key to this
system of fortifications, which has proved
so successful at Charleston, is briefly
this: that, if properly built and mounted
with the proper armament, none of these
forts can be taken without a terrible
sacrifice of life on the part of the as
sailants; because an assaulting column in
attacking one for t,is exposed to the fire,
not only of that fort alone, but also
to the concentrated, crossing and en
filacling fire of several other forts. Shell
ing has very little effect on works con
structed in this manner, as the gunners,
and the whole garrison indeed, are shel
tered by wooden bomb-proofs, covered
with earth. To an observer who could
ascend over Richmond and look down
from an altitude of about a thousand feet,
the city would appear to be surrounded
by three 'distinct lines of forts construct
ed in thill manner. The work of taking
the rebel capital by siege therefore, will
certainly not be an easy task, or one that
can soon be accomplished.
If gunboats and iron-clad vessels could
take part in the siege, (if there is to be a
siege,) there might be some hope of re
ducing the city. But Richmond is inac
cessible by water, If Fort Darling and
the other forts which line both sides of
rebel capital did not exist at all, still no
hostile vessel could pass Drury's Bluff.
The obstructions that begin at that
point, and continue up to the city itself,
are far more complicated and difficult
of removal than those of Charleston har
bor; and the channel, beside', is planted ,
think with torpedoes, but notwithstand
ing all this, we have faith in the genius
of Gitsivr, and that before the summer
is half over he will be the master of van
quished Richmond. On last Fourth of
July he completed the surrender of
Vicksburg; his calculation is probably
to perform a similar achievement upon
the coming anniversary of our country's
independence.

we shall be altogether ready. Our line
tonight extends, perhaps, six miles from
north-east to south - west, the right being
a little advanced.
Gen. BURNSIDE has come up 25,000
strong and will probably be the reserve
to-morrow. Our loss to-day may be es
timated at 3,000 to 4,000. The main
battle, probably a decisive one, must be
to-morrow. To-day we have fought
because the enemy chose that we should.
To-morrow because we choose that he
shall.
Another correspondent says! Our loss
in this engagement does not probably
exceed one thousand men..l Scarcely
any artillery was brought into requisi
tion, the character of the ground ren
dering it useless. The battle-field is
covered with a thick growth of under
brush and medium-sized oak trees, and
it is owing to that fact that our losses
.are comparatively light. Our captures
in prisoners amount to about five bun•
dred men. I omitted to allude to the
capture of a number of the 18th Penn
sylvania Cavalry on the retiring of
HANCOCK'S Corps toward PARKER'S
Store—a party of three hundred caval
ry under the command of Najcrr Bnrw
TON, of the 18th Pennsylvania. The
party was sent from TODD'S Tavern to
relieve the pickets stationed - several
miles below on the Spottsylvania Road,
and in carrying out their instructions
were attacked by a large body of Rebel
troopers by whom they were driven
back to the Tavern-in some confusion,
and quite a large number of the regi
ment above named were taken pris
oners."
THE BATTLE ON FRIDAY
The battle was opened at 4,30 a. m.
by an attack on our right and centre.
WRIGHT'S and WituurN's divisions and
part of Bruewick's Corps became en
gaged. The attack was repulsed.
About six o'clock HANCOCK advanced,
and after a contest of one hour drove the
enemy out of their position brick of the
Orange and Chancellorsville plank roads,
taking Several bundrq prisoners. At
hall-past eight an advance was -made by
