begins with a review of the military ope%

Providence io enabling ua successfully to

oar subjugation. We have recovered Tex.
as from the enemy, and Arkansas with the
exception of a few (unified porta, and near
ty the whole of Nprthweatern Mississippi,
^iertliern Alabama, and West Teiiiiea.ee
ars again in eur possessioo. All attempts
(io penetrate from our coasts have been
baffled, la Southwestern Virginia aucceaaive
armies have been routed, and a portion
of Eut Ttonturt recoeered by our troop*
The main army of our er-.etuy, after a
arias of defeats, the constant repulse of
repeated assaults, ia atill engaged in the effort
to capture Petersburg. The army of
, JSherman succeeded ia obtaining possession
of Allan's, but waa unable to secure
any ultimate advantage from this success.
Had we been cdmpellcd to eracuat* Rich*
wood, as well aa Atlanta, the Confederacy
would hare remained as defiant aa ever.?
No military'success of the enemy can accomplish
the destruction of the Coofedsra.

No change ia the conduct of foreign

' ie withheld fro* the aseoinption that our

tervention. We wish no intervention. We
know ourselves fullj competent to main
tain our righte and independence, i'asce
4a impossible witbeut independence, and it
ia not to be expected that the enemy will
anticipate neutral ~powere in the recognition
of that independence.
The total amouot of the public debt on
the let of October waa one billion one
hundred and thirty millioo of dollars. No
