cially and morally, at bom?, it will cause any
Bamber of lvg?bnoot aspects'among thousands
?ho woald be equally afflicted,.if told that We
bad>lost car cities of Kamtchatka and Tim?
.bootoo. What next move is to follow-on ?ir
military chess-board, we will ?ot undertake to
divine. We may add, that ocr- telegraphic ad?
rices lack tao much in perspteaity and fullness
to satisfy any thinking party. We must wait
on what to-morrow "shall bring forth.
President Davin takes a right view of the
results of the evacuation of Richmond. - We
have said elsewhere, that, in oar opinion, it
should have been evacunted long r.?o, and that
we should not have waited till tr?is? beesmc *
military necessity. Thu cheerful tone of Presi?
dent Davis is highly becor.iinjr; of coarse, h<
can deal only in* generalities, and these mu ?'
.nifioe; of the future mo Jut operandi he sin th
say nothinr, and we certainly hu** nothing

! we trust to the purpose. God ftill rules i
