will have been not greatly superior to ours. If Longstreet was able not only to check, but actually to defeat their whole army with his single corps, what may we, not expect from the whole army of Lee? If the decisive battle has yet been fought, it must have been on the 4th, 5th, or 6th of July. These three days are all memorable in the history of mankind. Everybody knows what the 4th of July was famous for. On the 5th, in 1814, was fought the battle of Chippewa, in Canada, where old Scott distinguished himself. On the 6th July, 1869, occurred the great battle of Wagram, between the French under the Emperor Napoleon, and the Austrians under the Archduke Charles. It was one of the most tremendous conflicts of which there is any account in the history of the world.
