The Daily Dispatch: February 4, 1864., [Electronic resource], Re-enlistment of Virginia troops. (search)
Re-enlistment of Virginia troops. It is highly gratifying to us to publish the fact that among the first troops in General Lee's army to re-enlist for the war is a Virginia regiment — the 1st Virginia artillery, Col, Brown. On the 1st instant the men assembled at their camp, near Frederick's Hall, formed in hollow square, and were eloquently addressed by Capt. Dance, the senior Captain, Lieut, Davis, and others, and those who desired to re-enlist for the war were requested to rally around the flags of their respective batteries. Each company in a body assembled around its battle flag, amid the cheers of all on the ground.

It is particularly gratifying to the people of Richmond, in which city they were organized, to find these two companies of Howitzers, whose blood has marked every battlefield from Bethel to Gettysburg, among the first to take thei

S. refused, and sent a message back, that he would wait five minutes for an answer, and if at the ex from Capt. Sturdivant's battery wounded several. The second shot passed through the smoke stack of the Briggs, which produced such consternation with the enemy that the white flag went up immediately, and the entire force surrendered, save Capt, Lee and five of his command, who cowardly and treacherously escaped in a small boat, after the display of the white flag. Lieut. Harris, of the 99th New York, was badly wounded in the bowels, and it is thought will die. Lieut F. A. Rowe, of the s

ple determined to be free. The Americans of that time were but a handful in comparison to the Southerners of to-day. You cannot hold down by any known forces ten millions of people who have sworn to achieve their independence. The armies of Lee and Johnston might be disbanded to-morrow; they might go, like Israel, "every man to his tent." and all the military operations of the Confederate Government be suspended. The Federals would be as far as ever from the conquest of the South. Therjubilant just now at the late successes of their armies. The disastrous defeats of the armies of McClellan, Pope, Burnside and Hooker plunged them not very long ago into the depths of despair. In presuming on the subjugation of the South because Lee has retired and Vicksburg has fallen, they are as much in the wrong as they were in regarding these Southern victories as decisive of the war. With such power of raising armies, and with so vast an extent of ground on which to deploy them, the war
