There b too much OF disposition on the part
Of many loyal men Of the North, to overlook, in
their importance, the good results which have
been accomplished since the commencement oil
the rebellion. There has been vast amount oil
Encouragement on the part Of Government and
the othcials. We are ready to admit. Who could
have expected otherwise Mistakes will occur
With the wisest and best Of Governments, as
we'll - men. TO expect otherwise, would be to
eloshs men with the attributes Of Deity, and
make them Invaluable. But notwithstanding
the many errors and shortcomings of these up.
o. whom has rested the responsibility in the
Management OF he war, the country at this mo

towards crushing the rebellion, to which every
loyal citizen can point with pride, and from
which hs can take encouragement for the 6nal
result That record shows the wonderful ener.
q, tn, vast resources, and the 6rm patriotism Of
the people. After . close examination Of this
record, let no man doubt the ability Of the loyal
North to utterly annihiIase this wicked rebellion
In iss own good time.
Al the time Of the attack on Fort Sunptsr,
the country was literally destitute Of an army
and navy. Il has nov an army Of nearly .
million Of men. armed and equipped with al the
appliances Of var. and . navy which 10 the won

from tho grasp Of the rebellion the border States

Missouri, and driven the rebel hordes entirely
from their borders. We have reclaimed from
rebellion Tennessee, and good part Of North
Carolnia. Louisiana and Alabama. We have
opened the Mississippi to navigation. We have
Fetaken many Of the most important sea. ports in
The rebel States. and maintained blockade up
o. the Others which has well nigh brought the
rebels TO utter Hesitation. All this has been
brought about within . period Of twenty months,
from beginning Of nothing, except the latent
sesoarees Of the country.
And this d not al. Our financial achieve
