George H. Gordon, From Brook Farm to Cedar Mountain, Chapter 7: the Army of Virginia under General Pope—Battle of Cedar Mountain. (search)
rt G. Shaw, who subsequently, as colonel of the First Massachusetts Colored Regiment, was killed at Fort Wagner, served as an aid on my staff. Although General Pope was at Washington, in the District of Columbia, we began to receive at Little Washington, through the newspapers, furious orders, intended to inflame his army with zeal,--No lines of retreat, No bases of supply, Live upon the country, We have always seen the backs of our enemy, Discard your false notions, etc. On the 14th of July, 1862, General Pope issued the following order to the officers and soldiers of the Army of Virginia :-- . . . I have spent two weeks in learning your whereabouts. I have come from the West, where we have always seen the backs of our enemies. Dismiss from your minds certain phrases I hear constantly,--of taking strong positions and holding them, of lines of retreat, and bases of supplies. Let us discard such ideas.

VII. pp. 176-179). He had made similar remarks May 22 (Congressional Globe, p. 2225). The New York Evening Post, June 7, 1862, had an article of the same tenor. In declining an invitation to attend a public meeting in the city of New York, he said, A senator cannot leave his place more than a soldier. July 14, 1862. Works, vol. VII. pp. 180, 181. It has often occurred in the Senate,—and it occurred many times during this session, in which the duties of patriotism were most exacting,—that it was obliged to adjourn for want of a quorum, or for want of the attendance of a sufficient number to make its action decisive. Sumner's vacant chair, while he was in health, was never an obstruction to public business. Again and again, at this and at other sessions, as the official record shows, he prote
