We have already recovered a large aren of territory, once darkened by the rebel fing, and have vanquished the pirates. ov the bigh sea. We have established the integrity of the government at home, and shown to foreign nations our strength in war, as well as our growth in prosperity, and opulence in peace. @ improvements in agricultural and the mechanical arta, have been as great and as numerous, during the four yoara of bloody war, as those of any other equal period of time sinve the nation’s birth. Though we have not beén materially impaired in any vf the great branches of industry, in commerce orin-.-trade,. ner has. out courage been dampened by the dark até gloomy days through which we have. been called to panes, yet, we cannot but feel that the present is av all. important moment in the great conflict. The news of Sheridan's great victory in eS the Shenandoah, and of Sherman's conquest . at Atlanta, seem to be the natural promises of the victory awaiting Grant at Richmond. Great struggles always end suddenly. With in a few days we may hear of a victory which will probably end this bluody war, that is, aa far a6 battlesin the field are concerned. At home, we have a work todo. The atruggle commencing on tho Atlantic coast, has reverberated across. the continent, and we way be called upon to take partin puttag down treason here on the Pacific coast. While we hope bloed will never stain our gvlden soil, we shrink from eo duty, we aecept the exigency of the times, and will try . and be equal to its dewands. Let ue feel the importance of the day, and do all we can te atrengthen confidence in the Government, and to retain him io power, who hae wieely and judiciously administered the affhire of the nation, during a period unexampled in the biatery of the world. THe WeEATHER.—Fur the past few days the atmosphere bas presented a smoky, murky appearanoe. The sun rises with a blood red cust upon his ‘‘phiz,” and is half hidden iby the dense vapor and fog now prevailing, while the air ia hot and oppressive. The moon, too, appeats very coy about exposing her beautiful face to our gaze, aod so wears’ a vejl of the ume material as her liege lord. What this kind of weather indicates posaibly some of our renders can ‘tell, to ua it appears aa “clear ae mud.’ RastTwWakn Kuyw.= The steamer Moses Taylor, of the’Ceatral American. Transit Company, will sail from Sem Francisco for San Juan Del Sar, on the 19th, connecting with the Golden Rule, at Greytown. — Couch:s and uew steamers, ample fur the -gocommod:.tien of travelers, convey the passengers aver the Isthmus, A conductor ia svat through each tmp, to take charge and miniater to the. comfort of papaengere. ; Miss Haupiner Comixe.—Miss Ema Hardinge wiil deliver an inepirateorial lecture on “thé coming man.or the next President of the United States,” ja this city, on There. We Tree, abd “eberybodty abould Ber ite who féils to do when he is fer ea time for doing hascome, is guilty of acting inthe worst faith and is without an excuse. . After the ill-fated battle of Ball's Bluff, a very. geceral dissatisfaction was felt that . McClellan should allow the rebels to blocks ade the Potomac, thus holding the river avenue to the capital in that direchon. M° Clella#, who never did anything without beTing pressed, promised thaton” specific day he would send down four thousand troops. The day arrived and the General excused himeelf for not fulfiting-hw-promise by say‘. img that “his engineers bad inforwed him that so large a body of troops could nut be landed.” The Secretary of the Navy repled that ‘the landing of thé troops was a a mutter ef which that Department assumed the resporsibility.” The next night was then assigned by McClellan as the time when the troops should go down, and failing. to keep his promise io this ae in the first in stance, he gave as a reason “the fear that such an attempt wight bring on a general engigement”—a feat utterly groundless. Time rolled on, for the Grave Digger eould not retard the flow of days and months, though we have nv doubt he would have done so bad it been in his power, and Little Mac was xppuinted to the command ot the armies of the nation. A splendid season for military operations passed by without doing anything, sud the people were uneasy and the Administration dissatisfied, On the Sist of Jan. 1862, just three inonths after McClellan succeeded Gen. Scott, President Lincoln. issued the following order : EXecuTive MANSION, Washington, Jauuary 31, 1862, Ordered, That ail the dispusabie torce of the Army of the Potomac, alter providing safely for the defense of Washington,” be formed into an expedition for the immediate ubject of seizing and occupying « puint upon the railroud southweatwerd of what is known as Manassng Junction, all details to be in the discretion of the Commandersin-Chief, and the expedition te move before or on the twenty-second day of February next. _ ABRAHAM LINCOLN. The Young Napoleon, slow as ever, remonatrated, and the President wrote the following ¢ : Executive Mansion, _ Washington, February 3, 1863. My Dear Sir?—You and 1 have distinct and different plans for a movement of the Army of the Potomac; yours to be done by the Chesapeko, up the Rappahannuck to Urbana, and across land tu the terwinus of the railroud en the York river; mue to move directly to a péist on the ruilroad southweet of Manassus.

Major-General McClellan. McClellan still restated and for a long time failed te move, either in accordance with his owe plan of that of Mr. Lincoln, and when at length he started it was (let it be noted by every one) efter the enemy had withdrawn, and for the purpose oe he says in his report. “to get rid of superflanus baggage and other impediments which accumulated go easily around an ormy engamped for a long time in one locality.” That day George B. McClellun ought to have been hung and thus saved the country further trouble. Au‘temy well organized, with vighteen months drill, mov. Ing wot to fight, but “to get rid of superfluous biggage! Who ever heard of such a thing belure ? Prince de Joimville, at that time 4 worahiper of the Young Napoleon, and a member of his staff, characterized the movement asa “promenade of the Army of the Potomac.” auarny when he should be fighting it, ought ty ‘be suspended irom the service and then suspend: d by the neck THE new decimal comage of Maximilian, peror at Vera Cruz, bears hie superecriptien with the crowned ‘eagle. standing on the nopal or prickly aoe of Mexico.
