be via Danville into North Carolina. This accomplished, he could probably form a junction with Johnston and continue his retreat into the Cotton States, sudject to such losses by desertion and battle as would be inevitable. Such a policy would only prolong without averting the agony of the dying of the rebellion, but it might secure the personal escape of the rebel leaders. As most of Lee'a army are Virginians they would have but little heart to enter upon a crusade in behalf of foreign States, as they would regard the remainder of the Confederacy, after being thorougnly driven out of Virginia. But fruitless as much a retreat would be, it presents difficulties to its accomplishment which need to be considered.

Sherman, will probably learn the effect of the fighting at Kichmond within a few hours after it has 'occurred. He ia but half as far from Danville as- Lee himself. He has Johnston in his immediate front, but if Johnston stays to fight with Sher-man, he can hardly form a junction with Lee, until he haa sustained a heavy defeat. If on the other hand Johnston falls back immediately for junction with Lee, Sherman ia at liberty to follow them up, and as both Sherman and Grant are ca- Sable of moving as Tapidly as Lee and ohnaton, it is difficult to see how a rebel force -which could not in its full strength austahv itself behind the fifty forts that protect'Richmond, can maintain even its existence for any length of time on an open retreat with a demoralized army in the face of the converging attacks of four powerful pursuing forces. General Butler akd Fort Fishbr.

The rebel General Whiting, before his death, sent General Butler, in writing, a statement i the number of troops in Fort Fisher at the lime of the attack of the Confederate force in supporting distance', and of Braarg's troops in Wilmington, and describes minutely the ineffectiveness of Porter's fire on. the fort so ineffective thdt the cannoniers were not driven from their gunsand made a case generally that overwhelm-, ingly justified General Butler's withdrawal from the attack on Fort Fisher. Whiting said, among other things, that it was a matter of reproachgainst Bragg, in his army and at Richmond, that Butler's small force was not captured bodily that Bragg had the troops and the position, to have made the capture and he in terms charged it upon the supineness of the Confederate commander that every soldier Butler landed wa9 not taken. This frank statement of General Whiting is in testimony before the Committee on the Conduct of the War. Chicago Journal, PaEsinEvr Lincoln asd the late Peace Negotiations.

Rev. Henry Ward Beecher, in an article published in the Watchman and Reflector, in reference to his late visit to Washington and BaK timore, thus alludes to President Lincoln and the late peace negotiations "The President seems well and in good spirits. His face is more wrinkled, and if possible drier than ever. But he seents tough and elastic, and far more likely to live a hundred years than two years ago ha was to live ten. Seldom has any man gone through four 'such years; of burdens immeasurable and cares the most scorching.

He has made the country his owni Were it child lying sick, he could hot devote himself to it more oontinnoualy and faithfully. His last achievement will scarcely be appreciated aB it deserves. Few will suspect, from the exceedingly business like message that he sent to Congress, made up of a string of letters and dispatches, how thoroughly he has overmatched and mas-' tered Davis ia 'this pretended solicita- tion of peace." Grast asp Shkeman. Happily, there is the best agreement and the most hearty co-operation between Generals Grant and Sherman, and they work to a common end rthe preservation of the Union, wit no thought of self elevation, and certainly without jealousy of each dlher.

Nearly one hundred years having elapsed since Methodism was established in the United States, the members of the Methodist denomination in several ot the States are taking measures for the impressive centennial anniversary of the event. There is quite an excitement at Tor; onto, Canada, caused by controversies be-, tween those of the business men who are willing to take American silver at par and those who demand a discount. The Board of Trade are among the latter, and recommend four per cent, as the proper rate.

The Louisville Journal grpws very impatient with slavery. It scolds all Kentuckians who hesitate to w'pe out its remnants; arjd. predicts that twelve months hence there will be no slavery in Kentucky, either real or nominal. Orie more election will put the anti-slavery men in power in all branches of the Government. Cavalry movements seem to be the order pf the day.

The East Tennessee expedition, under Gen. Stoneman, has already advanced upon Its mission, bns uncovered one hundred miles of railway, and is driving in every direction the fugitive and disorganized bands of rebels which have been prowling about in Tennessee. The great Alabama cavalry expedition, under Gen. Wilson, has broken camp at Chickasaw, and is probably long ere this time on its way to Selma to in-' tercept the rebel forces from Mobile, when they shall be driven out by Canby.
