The Daily Dispatch: March 7, 1863., [Electronic resource], Treatment of our Surgeons by the Federal--Robbery of clothing. (search)
stant Surgeons C. S. A., of Department No. 2, Army of the West, having been ordered to remain behind with the wounded captured at Perryville, Murfreesboro', and Fort Donelson, do most respectfully represent to the Medical. Department of the Confederate States Army our treatment while inside the Federal lines. We enter into a detailed statement, hoping that the Government which we serve will enter a protest against a repetition of the same, it being in violation of General Orders issued by the UUnited States and Confederate Governments in June and July last, whereby Surgeons were declared non combatants, and were not to be considered as prisoners of war, but were entitled to kind treatment and freedom while performing the duties of their sacred calling. After fulfilling our duties with our respective wounded we were ordered to report to Baltimore Md., for the purpose of release; but, on attempting to reach that place, we were arrested and thrown in prison at different points.

d thinks that the substance of the Conscription bill passed by the United States Congress is comprehended in its first section, which prescribes that "all able-bodied male citizens, (whites, Indians, and negroes) and persons of foreign birth who shall have declared on oath their intention to become citizens, between the ages of 20 and 45 years, except as hereinafter excepted, are hereby declared to be the national forces, and shall be liable to perform military duty in the service of the United States when called by the President for that purpose." By the census of 1860 this would give four millions, of whom one million have already been drawn. This sweeping conscription act is designed to meet the contingency of foreign intervention, and in view of a powerful military diversion into Mexico or Canada. Let us have a single telling victory upon the heels of there comprehensive war measures and they will be sufficient to convince even Lord Palmerston that Jeff. Davis is tottering to hi

hinations, seek even in our own homes and at our own firesides, to pervert our men-servants and our maid-servants into accomplices of their wicked designs. Under these circumstances it is my privilege to invite you once more to meet together and to prostrate yourselves in humble supplication to Him who has been our constant and never failing support in the past and to whose protection and guidance we trust for the future. To this end I, Jefferson Davis, President of the Confederate States of America, do issue this my proclamation, setting apart Friday, the 27th day of March, as a day of fasting, humiliation, and prayer, and I do invite the people of the said States to repair on that day to their usual places of public worship, and to join in prayer to Almighty God that he will continue His merciful protection over our cause, that He will scatter our enemies, and set at naught their evil designs and that He will graciously restore to our beloved country the blessings of peace

rganized, well supplied with funds, determined, courageous and confident. They appear to forget only one thing; that this Government is trying to save the Republic, and that its attention is not so wholly absorbed by armed rebellion in the field that it may not presently find time to crush Northern treason, which is conspiring to destroy it by assassination. A lament on the Naval Glory of the North. The Tribune has the following lament for the departing naval excellence of the United States: The American navy in other days achieved a proud and world-wide fame, which it seems resolved to lose in the present contest. To the long list of its recent disgraces, we have now to add the capture of the gunboat Indianola, whereby the rebels again become undisputed masters of the Mississippi and its tributaries from Vicksburg to Port Hudson. Of our war vessels run by Vicksburg to sweep that important stretch of inland navigation, the Queen of the West was captured by a shore b

nion meeting in Cincinnati on the 28th ult, Major General Lew. Wallace made a speech, in which be raid. Whatever happens in the West some day or to your own beautiful city within the next three months, I will assure you there shall be no responsibility avoided by me. I warn the people of the North everywhere that there is danger to the Government. There is a conspiracy forming to give this Government to the rebels. Even New England is rotten to the core. This conspiracy is formed of thousands in Ohio, Indiana, --eye, in the whole West. And this conspiracy consists of the peace party, whose propositions are dinned in our care day by day — You ask me, how do I know? I know it by what I have recently seen in the United States Court of Indiana and in other places.

You must pay attention to the organization and enlargement of the military.
