They feel that want of success, has been
dHe to incompeteucy in those who directed
affairs, not to any weakness of the cause,
or in the means Of its maintenance and
support Confidence is unabated that the
right men in the right place will at lasl
appear. More than year ago, it was felt
on all hands that military successes were
essential to the negotiations of loans. They
have not come 10 the degree predicted or
expected; yet is would be far easier for the
Government to borrow to-day than it was
a year ago. We refer to this to show that
it is always unsafe to uuder- estimate the
financial strength Of a people.
On the contrary, the war viii demon
strate a strength on the part of the nation
far transcendIng whatever was claimed for
it by its most ardent advocates. The nat
ural resources Of this country are so vast.
that no limit can be placed upon its pro-
ductiveness under the stimulus of grand
necessity, or demand, especially, so long
as the war is not waged on Northern soil.
With our financial strength unabated, all
other things will come in due time. The
experience, under similar circumstances
ofall nations addicted TO peace, has been
similar to our own. But the work of pre-
paratiou is going on, while military talent
is being developed, so that we are really
making vastly greater progress than is
generally supposed. In the meantime we
are consolidating our political unity, gain
ing in confidence aud IN experience, which
can not failin the end to conduce to COM
plete success.
