The Daily Dispatch: June 28, 1861., [Electronic resource], article 11 (search)
The question of a King. The Northern press, in giving themselves so much concern about the alleged willingness of South Carolina to live under a King, are in blissful unconsciousness that they are themselves at this moment the subjects of a despot compared with whom George the Third was one of the mildest of monarchs. An Executive who tramples the Constitution of his country under foot and usurps all power, is none the less a despot because he retains the name of President. If South Carolina were to prefer a monarchy, it would probably be a constitutional monarchy, which would at all events be an improvement upon the unlimited monarchy of King Mob of society, a strong Government, upheld by a considerable standing army. Therefore, we commend them, instead of speculating upon the alleged proclivities of South Carolina for monarchy, to be looking out for some competent person to succeed the present usurper, and as a faithful type of the dominant party of those States, we wou

d editor of the Daily Times proclaimed war against Popery; declared that it was adverse to civilization and the spirit of the age, and ought to be exterminated. Yesterday he turned his venom against Catholics themselves, and says of the ancestors of the Irish that they were "half slaves, half savages." He endeavors to prove that the origin of the South Carolinians of the present day is of the more degraded description, consisting of "low-bred people," "persons of low and indigent circumstances," people "reduced to misery by passion and excess," and who fled from their native land from "the rigor of unprincipled creditors," and sums up by quoting an early authority to show that "none had furnished the province of South Carolina with so many inhabitants as Ireland," who "in those days were half slaves, half savages." Quite a sufficient reason, thinks the rampant Abolitionist writer, for wholesale slaughters, hangings, and confiscations of property in that State now.--N. Y. News, 18th.

A Scrap of history. --The language as well as the spirit of the North, in the present war, seems to be borrowed from that of the British invaders during the war of independence.--Lord Cornwallis issued, in 1780, in regard to the State of South Carolina, which was then assumed to be a British "province," as it is now deemed to be a province of Lincoln's empire, the following order. It sounds like an editorial in some New York paper in 1861, and in the very vein of the champion of Northern supremacy: "I have given orders that all the inhabitants of this province, who have subscribed and taken part in this revolt, should be punished with the greatest rigor; and also those who will not turn out, that they may be imprisoned, and their whole property taken from them and destroyed. I have also ordered that compensation should be made out of their estates to the persons who have been injured and oppressed by them. I have ordered, in the most positive manner, that every militia

An incident --After the Vienna battle last week, a South Carolina soldier, who had been out on a scout, was arrested by three of the retreating Yankees, who, after disarming him, set out for the Federal camp, "calculatin" largely, no doubt, on the welcome plaudits that awaited them for their heroic exploit.--But all things fair are doomed to fade. After marching some distance the party came to a halt — stacked arms, which were topped with the sword bayonet, and two of them went in pursuit of water, leaving the Carolina captive in charge of the Yankee captor. The former watched his time, and when the watering party was out of sight, seized a bayonet, and at a single stroke almost severed the head from the body of his companion, after which he quietly took possession of the arms, and marched to the camp of his friends.--Leesburg (Va.) Mirror.
