SATURDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 30, 18(15. Gen. Grant has told, in his report just published, tho ?tory of those campuigus, whose result will justify; in tho opinion of tho niasB of mankind, his appointment to con duct thorn. Tho report opona with a survey of tho position of tho bolligoronts in April, 18G4, when tho Federal commander could draw, no comfort from his sweeping glanco at tho military cchcquicr, and concludes with congratulations to tbo armies, which, in the spring of 18G5, sliarod bis surpriso at their own gigantic successes. The report will in terest our readers, not so much as an or derly and fairly authontic chroniclo of tho battlos of that portentous period, but as a revelation of tho deBigus and hopes of tho mind which produced and guided them ; and, in this point of view, disappointment will be felt that the veil has been so charily raisod from tho purposes nnd expectations with which he rushed into battle in May, 180-1 To the dignity of history tho report makes no claim, and tho world must learn tho Bufferings, tho useless heroism, and tho sickening despair of that era at somo future time, and from soma other hand. An exhaustivo criticism of this report would necessarily bo directed to throe distinct points: the authenticity of its facts, tho chnr ftCtcr of the strategy narrated as measured by tbo principles of military art, and tho literary value of the narrative. Tho time has not yot come to submit, to tho tost of historic analysis, tho facts advanced by Gen. Grant: the evi dence which might contradict or modify them has not been given to tho world ; and, until tho great leaders who opposed him have told their tale, judgment must bo suspended on his claims to accuracy. "With the lights we have, the merit cannot be denied to General Grant of having ondoavored to givo to the world an impartial narrative. Ho does not attempt to conceal the numerical superiority of his own force, or to exaggerate the losses inflicted upon hi? opponent. "The resource* of tho enemy, and his numerical strength,71 he admits candidly, "woro far inforior tc ours." On the 3d June ho admits a hoavy logs on hi? part, and a comparatively light one on the part of the Confederates ; and, in summing up tho results of the combats which had taken place between that date and the opening of the campaign, he frankly acknowl edges that "previous, attacks had not.all re sulted in victories, or accomplished as* muel as he had hoped for them.**' This will be the first intimation to the people of tho North that the progress of the Army of the Poto mac, from tho banks of the Rapidan to those of the Jarnos, was not the triumphal march they had boen led to believe it. Whero in .accuracies occur in the report, it will bo but just to remember that a commander-in-chiet muht rely for the details of battles upon the accounts of subordinates; and no one who has had experience of the difficulty, nay, impossi bility, of obtaining a coherent narrative from tho immediate actors on the battle-field, will be hasty in charging upon a general an in tention t? misrepresent. Gen. Grant, wo have no doubt, has been misinformed, when ho commits such errors as stating that "hit troops were withdrawn" on the 3(Jth July when, in fact, thoy, were driven out of th( lines of Petersburg in headlong rout, by the bayonets of Mahone; and in rolating that oh the 1st April, "Gen. Sheridan aMgnltec and carried a strongly fortified posiiWh at Five Forks," whon,iu fact, there was noworl which deserved the name of fortification, auc no movement which General Sheridan conic claini as an assault. Thero is no problem more difficult than thai of determining the relative degrees of influ ence which fortune and conduct have exor cised in tho production of given results; anc in discussing military affairs especially, the difficulty is increased by the.acknowlodgot fact that war offers unuBiial opportunities foi the intervention of fortune. Cicero advoca ted in the Koman Seuato the appointmont ol Pompey to command, on tho avowed grount that ho was, tho favorite* of, fortuuo. " 'lb.,, foremost man of all the world " pauses iu,f?b< wonderful Btory of his achievements, to floh feBs to mankind hie obligations to fortune Napoleon complained that not hiaowi genius, but fortune, abandoned him to ruii and despair rit Waterloo. The preciso obli. g?tions which the Lieutenant-Genoral owe? to the same fickle divinity! wo loavo to souk future .Jomini to determine, but tho cotompo r?ry critic will not bo charged with unfair ncss who points to her favors nnd to the im monso power in his hands, as a sufficient ex plunntion of his great succ?stses, without re sorting to the hypothesis of his militar*} genius. Fortune ehoworod her nuiles " upoi hit" quarry," and tho application of tho'im monso resources at his command to the do Btrttclion of his exhausted foe was a task ai simple as that of driving tho earof Juggor ni'tut over its feeble, victims, * General Gran' is fuUy.ftwa?? of this fp.ctj Und confesses freely how little skill ; wn?' necessary to the acoom pHshmentof hisipnrp?sos^ W'hen ho states hi plan of campaign t? h? .'.flfo Uamm?r continu ?U8A3.,,teaipst j ^eoVarm^.?rj^Q( pf ./hei ?afip? and his resources, until, by moro attrition, if in no othor way, thoro should be nothing loft to him." This is tho principio which ho bus contributed to tbo science of war, and ho do 8orvcs tho morit of having uovor lost eight of it for a moment. Ilis man uvres woro a se ries of display, on a giguntic scale, of bruto force?; his sword cut by its own weight, and not by tho cunning with which ho wioldcd it. Ho hammered persistently at the Confederate lines, inflicting, by heavy losses, which ho could not well aflbrd, smaller losses, which the exhausted Confederacy could not ropair ; tho brilliant combinations, which sccuro vic tory before tbo blow has boon struck, woro no part of bis stratogy; and it is well known to our renders that the handful of mon who laid down thoir arms on tho fa.tal morning of tho 9th of April, at Appomattox, did so, notlo causo they had been mnnceuvrod into a posi tion which mado resistanco a military folly, but because thoy had boon reduced to a num ber which mado it a physical impossibility. As an addition to military literature, the report is of that intermed?alo character which ncithor desorves praiso nor douHimls censure. "When tho magnitude and number of tho events recorded, and tho importance of Gonoral Grant's testimony in rogard to them, aro considered, his narrativo will not bo thought to want conciseness ; exit it will be impossible to claim for it those merits of style which alono could place it on tho level with tho military compositions of tho great Captains whoso swords havo been as mighty as their pens. The cordial recognition of the services of his subordinates, especially of J those of Generals Sherman, Meade and Sheridan, do credit to his heart. Lut wo must complain that many things in tho report, and, among others, tbo strictures upon Rut ler, however just, are scarcely couched in those grave tones which become tho utter ances of the historic muse. Tho pooplo of the South will recognize a friendly -spirit in his mention of the " manhood " and " horcu lean efforts " of his opponent-?: and tho mode ration displayed in his convention with Gene ral Lkk, and tho fidelity with which hisproin isos to his fallen enemy woro carried out, have earned for him an exceptional claim to our kindly respect. Moro ho cannot ask from tho Southern poople^ who, with one heart, havo awarded the hero's crown to i another, and who abido with confidence the i confirmation which they expect present and futuro generations to give to their verdict, a 11 " MARRIED, On tbo evening of tho 20th December, at tbo residence of the bride's father, by tho Kov.
