Butler in North Carolina. Beast Butler is furnishing admirable Illustrations of reconstruction for the encouragement and instruction of North Carolina, which is now under his command so far as it is under Yankee rule. A correspondent of the Wilmington Journal, writing from Hamilton, N. C., gives a specimen of how the beast is working the oath: The oath is Lincoln's, and the parole is added by the beast himself. The time set for the people of Eastern North Carolina is the 19th of January, inst. All persons who do not come forward and take the oath and give their parole within that time are to be seized and held as prisoners of war, and their property confiscated to the use of the United States Government. Persons can leave their lines within that time, but they will be allowed to bring nothing with them except fifteen pounds of meat to each member of families. These things which I have mentioned above are not in the extract, but they are in the General Order, No. 49, w
of the people remains unbroken. They may be destroyed, but they will not be enslaved. The war has been conducted in a manner not sanctioned by examples of modern warfare. It has been waged not only against armies and public, property, but against private citizens — men, women, and children — and every species of private property. In many places whole sections of country have been desolated, and the inhabitants driven off or murdered. This new system of warfare has been inaugurated by Abraham Lincoln.--Hereafter, when he shall cast his eyes over a desolated country, buildings burnt down, fields laid waste, towns destroyed, and inhabitants driven off, he can have the fiendish pleasure of saying to himself, "I have done all this." We must remember that "the battle is not to the strong, nor the race to the swift; but it is God that giveth the victory." Let us put our trust in Him, and not be cast down. He may chastise us, but He will not permit us to be utterly destroye
The Daily Dispatch: January 9, 1864., [Electronic resource], The unanimous election of General Grant. (search)
ho may be named, except Gen. Grant, either has powerful and bitter enemies in one party or the other, or else he is so insignificant and unknown that we cannot afford to trust him with the helm of State during such a terrible storm as this Gen. Grant, on the contrary, has no enemies, or at least he has none bold enough to avow themselves. Yet, instead of being insignificant and unknown, he is our greatest military leader, and the greatest General America has produced. The inconsistency of Lincoln has left him no real friends even in his own party, and his course jokes have offended all respectable people. Chase is opposed by all the good financiers in the country, by the ultra radicals, like Wendell Phillips, and by all the conservatives of every shade and degree. So of every prominent man before the people, with the single exception of Maj.-Gen. Grant. It is for this reason that we nominate Gen. Grant for the next Presidency, and urge all parties to unite in supporting him.
