Sherman (search for this): article 2
summoned to the field before the present call? with the headquarters and heart of the rebellion at Richmond, only a hundred and twenty miles from Washington, the Federal metropolis and base and half the way affording water facilities for transportation, seven different commanders have led immense armies armed and equipped with every appliance of war that the wealth of the United States could purchase, and yet this outpost of the rebellion still stands unconquered and defiant. The march of Sherman through a portion of our vast territory is nothing more than the track of a ship on the ocean. The waves close around as it recedes, and bear no permanent trace of its progress. The capture of our seaports is no more than occurred in the first Revolution; and instead of being a matter of glorification to the United States, it is the Confederacy which has reason to exult that, for four years, without a Navy, it has been able to hold those sea-side villages against a naval Power which boast
Abraham Lincoln (search for this): article 2
there are some facts worth considering by those who imagine that such a country as the Southern Confederacy can be readily subjugated if it is determined to be free. What has the enemy done already that the end is at hand? there have been four years of war, and such war as has been rarely seen on this planet. in April, 1861, Mr. Lincoln called for seventy-five thousand men. In may, of the same year, He called for sixty-four thousand. From July to December He called for five hundred thousand. in July, 1862, He called for three hundred thousand; in August, 1862, for three hundred thousand; in 1863 He drafted three hundred thousand, and made a draft for five hundred thousand; in 1864, three hundred thousand more. With his last call and draft, this will make about two millions and a half of men called out to quell what the New York Herald designates "a gigantic riot." what has been accomplished by the two millions summoned to the field before the present call? with the head

been called unto the field, of which it is estimated that 300,000 have perished in battle and by disease, and 800,000 more have been lost from other causes. Even supposing this estimate correct, there would still remain in the Confederacy a full million of men capable of bearing arms. Or, if military events which have occurred since the first publication of these statements have made two-thirds of that number unavailable, there is a sufficient residue, with the negro troops requested by General Lee, to render the subjugation of such a population and such a territory impracticable. It is impossible that a people like ours, with such advantages, can be conquered unless they forsake God and forsake themselves. There never just has been a vital want of our condition which Providence has not supplied. If it was powder, if it was guns, if it was lead, it came at the right time. But we cannot expect Providence always to help those who, like the children of Israel in the wilderness
