To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Let us glance over the operations of our armies for- the last few months. The rebel generals Lee and Jackson invaded Maryland and Pennsylvania with an army of seventy thousand men the latter part of June, and were severely defeated by Gen. Meade at Gettysburg on the third of July, and on the fourth were in full retreat. After the loss of at least twenty thousand of his men Lee fell back toward Richmond to recuperate. On the same fourth of July the rebel Gen. Pemberton surrendered Yicksburg, the... key of the Mississippi, to Gen. Grant. On the eighth of July Port Hudson was surrendered to Gen. Banks. The Mississippi was now opened to ISTew Orleans, and the rebel states severed in twain. Important victories in Arkansas and Tennessee, and the advance of Gen. Rosecranz to the borders of Georgia, are also to be taken into this account, and for the whole do we to-day, as a nation, offer devout thanksgivings to God. There is a religious spirit in the army. Many prayers are there offered up. Multitudes of the brave men who have fallen upon the battle-field have pillowed their heads upon the bosom of Jesus as they bid adieu to earth.
