It there exists & chance for bringing cither of the chief Yankeo armies to grief, the best chance is pre ferred by the distance of Shkrhah from any reliable base of operations. The James River Is always of en for Grant, and his rght always rest3 ou it, wbi?e his leftewc-epa around. Petersburg; Even wh?a . beaten and driven into bis entrenchmeuts at Bermuda Hun dreds, Beast Butler bad alfrays his fleet to Jail back upon, tnd was thus saved from any srjoua risk cf to tal mic- A back door of retreat was alwap3 opea. , SrxsRMAN, on the contrary, has no gunboats to UW hzck opon, and no reliable water-base rearer than Naah vilio. Tennessee, or Tnscnmbia; Alabama. Whrri at Afbnta be is 138 miles from Chattanooga, on tbe Ten nessee Rsver, and mainly dependent cn a icgle rail road. He may draw some supplies from East Tenacs ree, but they must be Email; in fact we know that his beef cittle, horses, breadstufla and bacon come mainly from beyond the Ohio, from which stream be mu3t be distant over five hundred miles bj aay practicable route for trantportatioo. We need not here repeat the already oft repeated tspreEsions of astonishment at the tame submission of five hundred miles of Southern country to the costin ucd advance of tbe Yankee arms, or to the mainten ance of Yankee communications through five hundred mUts of Confederate territory. We call attention to the. physical and political situation there," with the view of eafcrcing our r?t proposition, nam ly, that the Sooth Western scat of war opens up tbe best field for determination and energy, and that succces in that field promises far more remunerative results then in any other field which the Confederacy presents. Grant is at his water-base now, and will not soon cut loose from it. He has been beffted he may be whipped, bat he cannot be destroyed or placed at serious incon venience cveD, for want of supplies. Sherman is, a? we have sea, away from any bese. Upon him r.ny blow mast fall with crushing effect, and t0-strike that blow should, wc think, be the great object of oar miii- tary auttorities, in which they shoald be eusramed py all our people. Sherman's success keeps up the war spirit' ia the .Northwest. His defeat might effect what Vallandigham; and Loxg, and YoRnEss,'.and others have failed to accomplish. To strike a blow at Sher man no half measures must be used, and no second rate men mast bff'kept ia authority. . Tbe times call for the best the cocutry effcrds. The papers aot the sensa tion p3p:rs alone give utterance, we think, to a eenti-. neat whicV ia rapidly assuming the form of a demand Give to tbe army of Tennessee Beauregard and .Fgbrsct. Give to the former what Stonewall Jack son 13 eaid to have ence asked for more men and no orders. . Iiig'xt or wrong, there is a growing cistrcat of any interference with that army by General Bragg. j It bod.s no good to that army when he has anything to say in ita management so the great body of the pec- Jplesrcra to think. At any rate, it might be well to 'try t;.c espriaisnt cf separating its fortunes al'oge! her f:cTi evea tbe remotest iuflaence of General Bragg'? j an! acky etr". General Wheeler ought to give plae'i' j to a s'cra &h sturdy man like Forrest, even if be did ' " o: -rradaate at West Point. Geueral Whesler may i ba a very good .ad gallant man, but it is not him we j-rre tbickir.? aoat, h id the campaign. So far, ia that j ca a"go, tLe war child " has proved a failure. J v i.en Grant broke op from Culpeper Court Hoase, i.id 'ought " on this line," not " ali summer," but un til be lost srao eighty thousand men, end found Rich mond a hi road to travel,, and " this line " wholly iaji'iseiicable, be crossed over to the Sputhside, leaving " this lire."

Is it not stricge that nothing like this occurs on the ! lir.e cf kiY-ision in the Southwest ? Are the people so diff-.TtTit, or is the management so different ?
