The Daily Dispatch: June 3, 1863., [Electronic resource], Vicksburg. (search)
Vicksburg. The siege of Vicksburg is still going on — a fact which leads us to doubt the accuracy of our telegram from Jackson, stating the enemy's loss to have reached thirty thousand. That they have been severely punished, however, is evident, not only from all the information we have, but also from the withholding of late Northern papers at City Point. Gen.

Yankee rejoicing --Advices from New Orleans to the 16th instant represent the Yankees as rejoicing with incontinent joy over the report that Hooker had discomfited Lee, and was pressing forward his triumphant army for Richmond. The delightful telegram that so moved the Yankee heart with tumultuous joy declares that Lee was entirely defeated, and that Jackson lost 18,000 of the 20,000 he carried into the fight.
