2262 - L. Feb. 15; ed:2/1 - Our armies are about to enter upon a grand
campaign which promises to penetrate the very core of the Rebellion.
Grant, Thomas, Meade, and others are pushing forward their steady veter-
ans and threaten to drive this Rebellion to the limits of South Carolina.
"If the last thundering at the gates is to be done here, it will only
be a righteous retribution visited upon a fearfully guilty people." (9)

2517 - L. Sept. 6; ed;2/2 - The possession of Atlanta by Sherman is a great
victory for Union forces and cannot be too highly estimated. His next
victory will undoubtedly be the state of Georgia, leaving the two Carolinas.
and southern Virginia confined to the Rebellion. -
"The country is grateful to Sherman for his great triumph, which comes at
an opportune time and brushes away the miasmas that arose in Chicago and
spread all over the land. The sunlight is again shining and the Republic
is sure to triumph." (6)
