His raid through the valley of the Shenandoah was a masterly stroke of strategy; for while he kept McDowell's and Banks's corps employed, and struck terror at Washington, by a rapid retrograde movement he appeared on the battle field, in the seven days fight on the Chickahominy, to turn the scale just at the critical moment, while McDowell was non est, like Patterson at Bull Run. --Again, when Pope was retreating from the Rapidan and the Rappahannock, Jackson, by forced marches, gained his flank, caused terrible confusion, and obtained vast spoil.
