days through which passed the irienda
and lovers oi the Federal Union. The

at its unexpectedness. The hopes so buoy-
antly entertained by our people when
Grant opened his campaign in Virginia
had been dashed. No joyful tidings
came irom the army now; a deadly calm
prevailed where had so lnleiv resouudcd
the shouts of victory. in every depart-
ment of the government there was a runni-
lest discouragement. In the field of un-
