The Daily Dispatch: March 11, 1861., [Electronic resource], Affairs at the Southern Capital. (search)
on the vital question at issue, Mr. Lincoln is explicit, and that is that the Union is unbroken in fact, that it is his duty to hold the public property and collect the revenue, and that he will enforce the laws — provided he is permitted to do so; if not, we presume he won't. The premises from which his reasoning is derived upon these points, is generally false, and the result of his policy is inevitably war. A letter, dated Montgomery, the 5th inst., gives some warlike information. It says: Capt. Robt. T. Jones, of the corps of Engineers, (late Lieutenant Colonel in the Alabama army, and formerly of the U. S. corps of Engineers, serving with great distinction in the Seminole Florida war,) received orders from the War Department yesterday, and last night started for Charleston. Lieut. Robinson, of Texas; Lieut. O'Brien and several other officers, were also dispatched to Charleston to-day. Every preparation is being made by the Government here, and war is anticipated.
