In our own history we have a salient example in the daring passage of the Delaware by Washington and the brilliant victory of Trenton. The wars of the French Revolution; and of the Empire, furnish two remarkable instances in the winter operations of Moreau among the defiles of the Black Forest, terminating with the splendid victory of Hohenlinden; and in Napoleon's remarkable campaign amidst the snows of Poland — a campaign illustrated by that tremendous conflict where thirty thousand dead men lay around the trenches of Dylan, reddening the whitened earth with their blood. The winter march of Arnold against Quebec, through the wilds of Canada; the splendid and romantic combats of Massena with the Russians among the mountains of Switzerland; the unparalleled retreat of McDonald across the glaciers of the Alps; and, to go back to ancient times, the march of the Emperor Majorian, who is described

Their great leader, whom, with a certain facetiousness of anticipation, they have likened to the Corsican hero, has yet given to evidence that he possesses either the energy of Blucher or the genius of Napoleon, bring the four months of supreme command he has gathered together an immense army, provided with all that science can suggest or wealth supply, and has, after experiencing one brilliant defeat, succeeded in putting his forces very comfortably into winter quarters. How does this record compare with that of the man who, with a ragged and forlorn army of hungry volunteers, destitute of a commissariat, of magazines, of a military chest, in four months conquered three armies, fought a dozen battles illustrated the history of his country with the glorious names of Lodi and Castiglione, and released almost the whole of upper Italy from the power of the Austrians?

If troops can be moved in the mountains of Central Virginia; if forced marches can be made, battles fought, and victories won, in that inhospitable region, remote from magazines and depots, we may well inquire why it is taken for granted that operations are impracticable in the accessible country along the lower Potomac, and that the milder climate of Eastern Virginia is yet severe enough to paralyze all movement on the part of the two armies. I do not underrate the difficulties of moving immense bodies of troops like those which constitute the armies of the Potomac; the obstacles presented by bad roads and deficient transportation; but I cannot forget that campaigns have often been carried on in the midst of winter, and and in defiance of the severity of climates far more rigorous tha
