The Golden Hour.
Another opportunity to give the rcbe'
i)ii a falal blow has present d itself. Leo
deli tntly throws down the gage of battle in
the vicinity of Washington, far away from
Ids base of operations, and without icserves.
He curries with him the fortunes of the.
rebel power, which must stnutl or fall 1 s
his 111 my is victorious or defeated. The
golden hour we failed to improve on the
21st of July. 1801. and which was lost on
the 2T)th of June, 1802. by McClellan be
fore Richmond, again shines foriii for us to
seir.o. Probably ere this date a contest has
been inaugurated in Virginia which wilt
determine not the fate of our nationality,
for that is beyond thu disastrous inllueoee
of imy single defeat but whether the
bloody strife and enormous waste of war
are to lie continued for another 3011 r. We
may add that the question whether tho loy
al States are to remain exempt from tie)
horrid Imvoo of war upon their own soil,
al-o depends upon the result of this light.
It is a critical moment a time when the
sympathy of every p.itriot goes with tlii
lirave army that is buttling lor liberty and
law nguiii'.t treason ami anarchy. Victor'
for the National arms means a speedy re
turn of the blessings of peace ; defeat meaiu
another year ut least of terrible anxiety,
fearlul waste and diminished prestige. The.
wur I1113 beer, pushed to the gales of Wash
ington with (the spasmodic energy born of
desperation. There can be no indecisive
encounter for either parly : it must be 11
oiil'Ii triumph or 11 crushing defeat,
with no room for discussion of couipum
live advantage. The enemy has sough'
thin Held with every available man ami
gun. We have had ample warning ntal
abundant facilities for meeting him with a
greatly superior force. Kucli army has a
powerful corps ol eavaln. the peculiar pro
vince of which is to turn defeat into rout.
The army nearest its Inwu has, of course,
tho least to lear from pursuit in cae of le
tieat. but defeat on our part, under such
circumstances, would be sulliciently dis
graceful and disastrous without Inking los
ses during a pursuit into consideration.
To Lee defeat must be fatal, if the Union
cavalry shall sustain its newly acquired
fame-, and. as we before intimated. I10 car
ries with him in defeat the gloomy power
which has so long defied the Ciovernuieut
and robbed us of the best mid bravest of the
land. For thero can be no mistaking
the desparing wail of the enemy over the
movements that have rendered lite fall of
Vicksburg a mere question of time. The
great valley of the Mississippi is already
under control of the National arms, and all
tho vast tegion we-t of the river is severed
from the dominions of Davis. The cap
lure of Vicksburg must be followed by thu
retirement of Uragg from Tennessee to es
capo the combined forces of ('runt ,r.nd
llosecrans. All rebel hopes ore, ihereiortv
centered in Lee nnd his uriny, whoeonfient
Hooker and thu Army of the Potniu. c
within n day's maich of Washington. Wo
can only hope und pray that thu I nif 11
(icucruinml his noble nnny may be eqiuO
In the emergency. Tho interests of iuiii
vidual.s ure of minor importance nt such 11
time; but if Hooker shall turn this gold 11
opportunity to 11 glorious account, he w II
earn an immortal name and the gratitu 0
of a suffering country Sue. Union, Jitnc'l'. .
A Coon ('ami Sronr. A correspond
ent of a Piiiladulphia paper, ullnchci! to
the Army of the Potomac, writes the fol
lowing :
To show yon how minor.! will spread in
the in my, I will illustrate an incident. The
lady friends of our lifth corporal sent him
11 box ; among tho many good things
the said box was a life size doll, dressed iu
full 01111 vc uniform, which thev won at u
soldlein' fair in your -city. The corporal,
after getting tlio box, was taken sick ; the
boys Marled tho rumor that the corporal
wa's a woman, und gavo birth to a hoy.
The rumor spread like wildfire; bundled.'
flocked to our quarters to see the wonder
ful phenomenon a new born babe but
wo guaided the tent with zealous care, only
allowing pryers to catch a passing gliinp-'u
of the supposed mother and babe. Wo
could find a number of men to sware they
had seen both. JJut the cream of the jok'u
was to como oil' ; tho corporal received a
ten days' furlough; all thought it was tho
mother going homo with her babe some
had it, that she was n rich heiress escaping
from a tyrant father ; but hundreds be
lieved in the mother corporal and young
recruit of Company 1, of the Zjiuvw
d'Afriquc.
