The recent intelligence inspires us all with renewed courage. Everything looks cheering enough. The Union Sentiment throughout Lawrence is manifesting itself continually and even in Memphis. Advocates for the old flag are beginning to be heard again. What American heart does not leap for joy at this glad news. How Sublime the age in which we are now living! How grandly this page of American history will look! How splendidly it will read! Our youthful imag-ination has often pictured the Revolutionary age and many times have we involuntarily attend the wish that we might have then. But how far in advance of that age is this one in which we live!
