The Daily Dispatch: may 16, 1861., [Electronic resource], Home manufacture of percussion caps. (search)
Home manufacture of percussion caps. --Nothing more was needed to develop the industrial resources and energies of the South than the suspension of trade with the North, which the Yankees, unluckily for themselves, have just occasioned. As soon as the fact became known that a more abundant supply of percussion caps would be desirable for the Southern troops, we find manufactories starting up in each of the Confederate States. We were gratified yesterday on being presented with one of the first percussion caps made in South Carolina. We are informed that the new caps are found to be in every respect equal to those made by the United States Government, and Messrs. Cameron & Co. are now engaged making the machinery by which they can be produced in large quantities.--Charleston Mercury.

Offer of service. --The notorious E. Z. C. Judson (Ned Buntline) had an interview with Secretary Cameron on Monday morning, and tendered to the Government a regiment composed of fifteen hundred practical hunters and sharp-shooters from the western part of New York State. The same fellow strayed over to Alexandria on Monday, and was arrested by the Virginia pickets; but Col. Terrett ordered his release.

m. His Aids tremble in his presence, and his petulancy prevents him from giving any one a civil answer. "Old Abe." it is said, is absolutely afraid to go near "Fuss and Feathers," as the latter has not forgotten and never will, the remark of Lincoln to Rev. Dr. Fuller, that he was "Scott's legal master." Scott, who was present at the time of the interview, managed to restrain his passion until the Doctor and the members of the Young Men's Christian Association left, but they had scarcely cleared the room, before he let out on Lincoln. At one time it was thought that Cameron and Seward would have to interfere to prevent a personal collision. Scott raved like a madman, and told Lincoln that he was a stupid fool, a most consummate ass, and lavished sundry other choice epithets upon the devoted head of his 'legal master.' Our informant states that he finally worked himself up into such a passion, that his nervous system could no longer stand the shock, and he was conveyed to bed.".
