We have found that after all is put into our side of the balance, which in any way is favorable 10 and conducive to success, and after all is taken from their side of the balance, which may be justly considered un- favorable and likely to result in defeat, yet, in proportion to the relative means of each, the scales of success have greatly preponderated upon the side of the enemy. We have found, sorely to our discomfiture and perplexity, in view of our evident and acknowledged superiority, that... there is something thrown into the scale of the opposing side, whether to secure to them ultimate triumph, or to protract and increase our punishment, which, when we are weighed with the enemy in the balances of actual competition and trial of strength, causes us to be found wanting. Politicians will say it is only the superior skill and strategy of the Rebel leaders, more vigor and clearness of purpose in their Executive, greater devotion and unity among the people. But the nation is beginning to learn, that beside and more than all this, that some- thing is nothing less than the Hand of the Almighty, which, though unseen behind the veil of His Providence, presses with such power upon the opposing scale as to make our boasted strength and superiority as yet insuffi- cient to crush the Kebellion, Our dependence upon human strength and wisdom has been weakened.
