Excerpt from The Yale Literary Magazine, Vol. 27: August, 1862
Our Government may have acted wisely, in thus yielding to the prejudices of factions and sections, but the logic of events, and the discipline of suffering is now teaching it the wisdom of a far different course for the future. It may have erred in yielding so much, proba bly has in yielding so long, and yet, until the secret history of these great events is made public, and we have the personal narratives of the great actors, we shall not realize how great the peril of any differ ent course would have been, or how near we had approached to the precipice of complete ruin, in that eventful Spring of '61.
