The Daily Dispatch: February 14, 1862., [Electronic resource], From Kentucky. (search)
y for service after the expiration of the volunteers' present term, can be accomplished by it. My own opinion is, that the Richmond Examiner has taken the true ground, when it advocates the raising of a standing army by a judicious system of conscription. How gladly back to old Virginia turns the step of an absent son. Sickness but increases the desire to see again the familiar homestead. While lying here in the house of Mr. Hull, whose lady has shown extraordinary kindness to me, I am reminded of home by seeing hanging on the wall a framed picture, which looks just like "Katy" did twelve months ago. The bright eye and flaxen curls seem so natural. And then on the opposite wall there is "A Mother's Treasure;" and would not "Sallie Pat" laugh to be told it is the image of her. Sweet children, I hope to see the originals in a few weeks; and you, like many others, probably, will be glad to know that this letter closes my correspondence with the Dispatch from Kentucky. Occasional.
