To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Scarce is there a house where there is not one dead. The rebellion, too, while in many respects its progress has been arrested, its strength deple- ted, and its area narrowed, has, in some other particulars, seemed to gain. It has infused a larger share of its infernal venom into the hearts of the free North. It has awakened fears of dis- cord at home, that, for the time, have outweighed the fear of defeat abroad. The emissaries of rebellion have haunted our northern border, and the chivalry ha...ve wrought their favorite deeds of murder and pillage in our peaceful Northern vil- lages, and have threatened our cities with flames and robbery. Our enemy is yet defiant. We have begun to feel the war at home. Its stern necessities, and still more, the avarice and villainy of those who regard it only as a means of filling their pockets, have put the very necessities of life out of the reach of many. And, to one looking at these things as many do, walking by sight and not by faith, thinking peace and prosperity the highest of earthly goods, the present scene of confusion, blood and death presents little occa- sion for gratitude.
