Our people are honest, moral, and religious; their enemy infidel, debauched, and utterly depraved in principle. We have all the attributes and auxiliaries requisite to success.--One thing only must we possess to render these circumstances effective; we must have the resolution to conquer success, and an implicit confidence in our cause.
