The winter of 1862-3 is now by common consent regarded as the darkestperiod of the war for the Union. The failure of Burnside's plans andthe defeat of Hooker at Chancellorsville severely tried the disciplineand organization of the Army of the Potomac, and filled the loyal Northwith alarm, while it correspondingly encouraged the Confederategovernment and raised the confidence of its army. As soon as the winterwas over and the roads were settled Lee assumed the initiative, droveHooker back from t
...he Rappahannock, crossed the Potomac, advancedconfidently to Chambersburg and pushed his cavalry as far north asHarrisburg and York.
Hooker had also proven himself to be incompetent, and desperate as themeasure was, the Washington government relieved him in the midst of anactive campaign, and entrusted the army and its fortunes to thedirection of Major General George G. Meade, a gallant and able soldier, who checked the high tide of rebellion at Gettysburg on the 2nd and 3rdof July, 1863. During this campaign Smith, who was on leave of absencewhen it began, made haste to offer his services, without conditions, and was at once sent to Harrisburg to assist Major General Couch, whohad been assigned to the command of the Pennsylvania and New Yorkmilitia.
