The Daily Dispatch: November 30, 1860., [Electronic resource], The original "Minute" Men. (search)
mbled at Culpeper Court-House and marched for Williamsburg. One-third of them were Culpeper men, who adopted a flag with the significant device of a rattlesnake, as seen in the engraving. The engraving represents a flag, at the top of which are the words, "The Culpeper Minute Men," it the centre a coiled rattlesnake with crest erect, on either side of which are disposed the words "Liberty or Death" and beneath is the motto "Don't Tread on Me." The devices upon this flag, it will be remembered, are similar to those upon the flag first used by our Navy. It was the flag under which the war of the Revolution was begun. They were dressed in green hunting shirts, with Henry's words, "Liberty or Death," in large white letters, on their bosoms. They had buck's fails in their hats and in their belts tomahawks and scalping-knives.--Their fierce appearance alarmed the people as they marched through the country. They did good service in the battle at the Great Bridge in December following.

There is great anxiety, in view of the secession movements at the South, and the momentous consequences likely to follow disruption of the Union, to know the views of President Buchanan on all the important points involved in the controversy now agitating the country. This anxiety will doubtless be relieved early in the coming week, (on Tuesday next, probably,) when the President's annual Message will be communicated to Congress. Me
