The Daily Dispatch: September 12, 1861., [Electronic resource], The Virginia officers in the Lincoln army. (search)
The Virginia officers in the Lincoln army. We copied into the Dispatch yesterday, from the Enquirer, a list of Virginians now in the army of Abraham Lincoln. The Enquirer, of yesterday, corrects its own statement as follows: We published in yesterday's Enquirer what purported to be a list of Virginia officers in Lincoln's army. The list was furnished us by a tried friend to the Confederate cause, and one whose usual accuracy of information was such, we thought, as to justify us in publishing it without question or investigation. It turns out, however, that our informant was in some instances mistaken, several of the officers whose names appear in it being connected with the Confederate army here. This is true of Major Albert J, Smith, Capt. T. G. Williams and Capt. T. A. Washington. Each of these officers resigned in the Federal army at the earliest practical moment, and tendered his services to his own country. The same is probably true of others on the list as publi

As a race, they are proverbially more difficult to provoke to a fight than Eastern Virginians; yet, when aroused, they will conquer or die.

Hansbrough--in all about one thousand men. Praise to menature of which, for military reasons, cannot here be explained. His force was composed wholly of volunteers--520 Arkansians and Georgians, and 250 Northwestern Virginians, under Lt. Col. Hansbrough. Let the result be what it may, it may be safely said that the latter bore themselves most gallantly, and not only overcome their le

The Twentieth Regiment. --A statement has been published that the Twentieth Virginia Regiment had disbanded, and probably it was published on good authority. We are informed that the "Rockingham Institute Guard" yet remains in a perfect state of organization — the only one of the eight companies that left this city with Col. Pegram. There are two other companies of the Twentieth in the mountains, under Capt. Jones and Capt. Bruce. We are gratified to learn that a nucleus yet remains around which to rally another regiment of gallant Virginians.
