Vistas of sheer cliff and stretches of the muddy on-sweeping Missouri and the full-bosomed Kaw, with scrubby timbered ravines and growing groves of forest trees, offered themselves at every turn.

Lee repeated the brilliant achievement of Jackson at Chancellorsville. Longstreet was sent around Hancock's left to turn and assail his flank. The movement was a complete success. Hancock's line was smashed and driven back a mile to his second defenses. General Wadsworth at the head of his division was mortally wounded and fell into the hands of the on-sweeping Confederates.
These English are spending their capital, and it is their capital that continues to give them their vast power.
