Hampton Roads (Virginia, United States) (search for this): article 8
The firing into the Glen Cove. We gave yesterday a statement of the firing of a U. S. Government schooner upon the James river steamboat Glen Cove, a vessel engaged peacefully in her river trips, and which was forced to leave one of her regular landings by this outrageous proceeding.--Stone Wharf, where the outrage occurred, is on James river, in Surry county, about twelve miles this side of Hampton Roads. It would be a good position for a battery, but there is nothing of the kind there. The two steamers, Jamestown and Yorktown, might be armed so as at least to be efficient for clearing the stream of the small craft of the enemy.
Maryland (Maryland, United States) (search for this): article 9
iven to the report that disaffection existed in the New York Seventh Regiment, but those who were disposed in consequence to revive an old feeling of attachment may now be undeceived. A member of the regiment publishes the following conclusive statement in a Washington paper: It is false that they were called upon to take the oath for three months, for it was stipulated that they were to be mustered in for thirty days only — though ready to serve for a year, or more, in the event of war. False that any disaffection exists in the regiment. False that when they did take the oath, five hundred refused to take it. Not a man withheld his willing pledge. False that any ten, twenty, or fifty men of the regiment, or any one man, said they or he would not bear arms against Virginia or Maryland. They all took the oath to sustain the Government against all its foes. And of course false that the Government yielded to a request or condition that never was made or asked.
May (search for this): article 9
Queen of may. --The ancient, but this year neglected, custom of crowning the Queen of May, was revived a few days since at the Camp of Instruction, Central Fair Grounds, by the Lynchburg Home Guard, one of whom was chosen Queen of May, with all the ceremonies — maids of honor, &c. --incident to such an occasion. Amid the plaudits of the assembled crowd, the Queen of Beauty was led forth from his cattle stall, where he had been duly and magnificently metamorphosed into one of the fairer s, Central Fair Grounds, by the Lynchburg Home Guard, one of whom was chosen Queen of May, with all the ceremonies — maids of honor, &c. --incident to such an occasion. Amid the plaudits of the assembled crowd, the Queen of Beauty was led forth from his cattle stall, where he had been duly and magnificently metamorphosed into one of the fairer sex, and mounted the throne in the most graceful manner imaginable. The Queen was crowned with a wreath of pine tassels. The monarch weighed 230 lb
G. N. Lincoln (search for this): article 9
The English press. We give extracts, to-day, from the English press. They cry out with one voice against civil war in America. If they pronounce Lincoln's threats of coercion "diabolical," what will they say when they hear of the hellish proceedings in New York? We are strongly of opinion that Lord Lyons will be instructed to offer the mediation of England, and, if that is not effectual, that, in the end, the interests of England will require a more effectual intervention.
