Nature sometimes seems to sym
pathize with man, rather God puts
on earth robe of mourning. In
1863, the sun seemed TO lose his
usual brightness. Many were the
ways that the unusual dimness Of
the sun was accounted for. The
year was one of the most deStuc-
tive to life and property in these
trying times.
The Southern forces had gained
a great victory at Charlottesville,
Va Generals Lee aud jackson de-
feating General Hooker, driving
his large army back across the Po-
tomac. with loss of seventeen
thousand men at cost of twelve
thousand; but among them was
General Thomas J. Jackson
called Stongwan Jackson-who
fell by the fire Of his own men,
through his own order. for he had
given command to the pickets, to
FIRE upon any one approaching
camp on a certain road without
cballenpe- In accommodating he
and his staff returned on this road
and in the twilight were taken for
enemies, and that brave General,
ana noble Christian, was saved
the humiliation of defeat and sur
render by being called to rest be-
fore that time time. July first to
third found the great battle of
Gettysburg, PENNSYLVANIA, being
fought. The victorious veterans
of Lee met the Union veterans of
Meade, after which onc-third of
the two armies, numbering one
hundred and fifty thousand, were
either dead or severely wounded.
General Lee fell back to Rich
mond Notifications.
Generals Grant and Sherman
were beseiging Vicksburg for nearly
two months. The incessant roar
of artillery and the demolished
city. feeding upon mule meat, and
sometimes the eats and other little
animals, called at last surrender.
General Pemberton surrendered
twenty seven thousand men, one
fourth Of whom were in hospitals
or untitled for duty and many 9th
ers barely able to answer roIl-call,
on the fourth day of july.
The great Confederate victory at
Chickamauga, Georgia, followed
on September 10 and 20. Gen.
Bragg defeated Gen. Rosecrans,
whose army was saved by the
courage of General Thomas.
So telling had the war become
and so much loss of life that Con-
gress authorized draft Of three
hundred thousand men to replace
the troops, whose three years term
of service began to expire. After
some opposition this was success
fully done, while all able-b bodied
men in the South were either I'M
der arms or in reserve.
