The writer very properly con? cludes that ''envy on the part of the Northern people induces thousands of them to yaound on" their legions to Southern ?destruction, and that we' have nothing to hone, save from our strong arras and-brave hearts, in this unequal contest. That Providence will eventdaliy. in? terpose Iiis merciful arm, and save 9s from the horrid fatcwhieh our cuemies are endeavoring to fasten upon us, We have not a shadow of a doubt. Let every man buckle on his armor,' and do his whole duty now, and success will reward oar efforts: 5 Nsw YORK, February 28,1865.-Until within 1 ?he pasl few months, 1 have had strong hopes of the ultimate success of the South; but am sorry to say, a succession of .dreadfifi disasters of late induced me to fear you had not suf?eient num? bers auuV strength to sustain the most wonderful efforts ever mode by any other country or 'Opie; and still, notwithstanding this condition of affairs, I still hope something will occur which will turn the tide,.and ultimately insure your success. * 'It-is fearful to think of the sacrifices, misfor? tunes and rubi to. which the South have been subjected, and which must contin?e while this fearful aud unholy strife goes on. To my mind, it is perfect madness for any party, in this country or Europe, to iraagibe 'for a moment that the South could again, by any possibility, unite with the'North, while tflere remains any rememberauce ortho sad and heart-rending events which they have witnessed and endured for four years past, and while martyrs, like Capt Baall and others, can be cited. .Although see daily accounts of Union feeling, and ! fraternising with the North, in cities that /have lately beeu taken, and other sections of the South, I have never conceived it possible that such a principle obtained beyond foreigner*, and those of Northern birth, who reside there; and have no doubt immens, numbers at life North are of like opinion; but'still hound on through envy the cruel struggle, which eau have no other tendency than to obliterate for ever ?rib ideas of their uniting again with the J NorthT . This dtfruggle has so clearly developed the I fact of tho superiority of the Southern peoplo, 'that large numbers Itere would rejoico at their destruction. Yet may we not hope some kind | interposition ot. Providence may ev iiitaaily compel the. North to desist, aud grant honora i ble terma to the South? There is hardly a day of ray "lifo, aines tbis] ?cruel war was commenced by the North,'thai 1 i have not reflected, upon the suffering*, death land wilful destruction to which the Southern j I people have been subjected, that'with very rare exceptions every .family are mourners, lespecijtllv in Virginia, wi til whom I sincerely sympathize.
