Grant's New Project. We published yesterday, from the New York Sunday Mercury, Grant's scheme for "crushing out" the rebellion. He has even fixed the day. On the 4th day of next July the fate of the Confederacy is to be sealed. On that day all Yankeedom is to hold a grand assembly to rejoice over the subjugation of the South. Grant explains how he means to accomplish all this. It is to be done simply by marching one army of 100,000 men on Richmond via Abingdon and Lynchburg, and another of the same force on Atlanta.--The Mercury makes no allowance whatever for the possibility of failure. Grant is to march from East Tennessee. His success is to be uninterrupted. He is to take Lynchburg. The whole population north of James river is to clear out and betake themselves to North Carolina. Richmond is to be starved out and to surrender at discretion.--In the meantime Thomas, never meeting with a reverse, of course is to enter Atlanta, and take Charleston and Savannah in the re

ously cripple its means for the war, impair its power to meet its liabilities after the war, and thus impair its credit and the value of any currency or obligation it may issue. In view of these considerations, it will be better for everybody to incur no obligations that can be avoided, and those that cannot be avoided should be made for as brief a time as possible. Bonds given now should be regulated somewhat in amount by the probable exigencies and changes that may occur before next January. It is certainly unwise for a man to engage in a bond to mature then at present prices for anything.--Let the people maintain their own credit. It is important to the Government itself that they should. The currency is no unconquerable obstacle to our independence. It was not to the independence of our Fathers of 76. It would be the will of all save traitors and misers that the whole of the present Confederate currency should be burned, if that were necessary to our triumphant defe

New year's Feast. --Our readers will remember the sick soldiers in the hospitals, and the returned prisoners at Camp Lee, this morning, and send in their contributions as heretofore directed. For the hospitals at the east end of the city, contributions may be sent to the various churches; for the paroled prisoners, every gift should be sent to Dr. Hoge's Church, on 5th street, as Der. H. has undertaken to have them forwarded to the camp.

the plateau in front of the river, which was readily and thoroughly swept by the enemy's batteries on the Stafford heights. My conclusion is, that the best latests of the country were served by not pressing the enemy in the first Fredericksburg fight. Passing over Burnside's sticking in the mud at Banks's ford, and the long, dreary winter when our men stood picket on the Rappahannock, we will take glance en passast at the battle of Chancellorsville, Hooker superceded Burnside on the 27th of January, and after three months of laborious diligence found himself ready to advance on Gen. Lee's lines about the last of April. A short reference t the series of battles which then occurred may not be out of place just here. One the 28th of April, Hooker threw one corps of his army across the Rappahannock, at Bernard's, just below Fredericksburg, whilst with the rest, having broken up camp, he marched rapidly to Kelly's Ford, a point twenty-two miles above Fredericksburg, on the Rappaha

Everything is to be over by the fourth of July, and that auspicious day is to witness the "old flag," the emblem of more disgrace than ever tarnished any standard the world ever saw, is to wave in triumph, gridiron, buzzard, and all, over the whole country from the Potomac to the Rio Grande. Then is to be witnessed that great consummation so eloquently described by General Wigfall in the Senate the other day. "We are engaged, " said that eloquent Senator, "in such a conflict as the world never saw. By a misnomer we speak of this 'Re

ad, no bed whereon to lie — to have nothing. Subjugation means a negro guard in every house and a provost marshal at every cross- road, with no right to visit a neighbor, no right to visit the house of God, without a permit from a Yankee provost marshal, to be handed to a negro guard." To this state, according to Gen. Grant and the Sunday Mercury, we are to be reduced on the 4th day of July next. But it affords us pleasure to say that the Mercury is not infallible. On Sunday, the 20th September last, it spoke exactly of Rosecrans's undoubted success as it now speaks of Grant's. On that same day Rosecrans was utterly defeated at Chickamauga, and would have been anbihilated but for the good natured forbearance of our Generals. Of one thing we are assured — that we have on our master-rolls at this very moment men enough to annihilate Grant and his army. But the larger portion of them are disgracefully straggling or tarrying at home, and but too many of the people are harboring a
