The Daily Dispatch: October 24, 1861., [Electronic resource], article 23 (search)
asion of the Federal victory at Chicamacomico the Norfolk rebels searched all passengers, and would not permit a newspaper to come North. But whether founded in truth or not, the report of the naval engagement at New Orleans has produced a temporary effect here and is likely to do the same in Europe. Connected in the public mind with this news is the announcement that, just before the sailing of the Nashville, two members of the British Parliament were in diplomatic communication with Jefferson Davis. One of these gentlemen denies the charge, but admits that he carried open letters, which only serves to strengthen on the first impression in regard to his visit to the rebel capital. The recent declarations of British journals and statesmen in favor of a permanent division of the United States into two Confederacies, corroborate this view of the mission of Sir James Ferguson. And in the news by the Glasgow, which we published yesterday, it was stated that Mr. Lindsay, M. P. at

the Confederate flag. Not once did the cowards fling to the breeze a banner that would indicate their nationality, but, on the contrary, deceived us by hoisting, on one or two occasions, when we pressed them close, a Confederate flag they had found in Churchill's deserted camp. They also, on every occasion as we approached them, cried, "don't fire, we are friends!" This they did as our regiment first advanced, and then, as soon as our men threw up their pieces, perfidiously fired into us. They also had got hold of our badge — a red one on the left shoulder; they also passed our men several times to gain a new position, crying, "hurrah for Jeff. Davis." This was remarked all over the field, and if they had not done it, but few would have escaped being prisoners. This is opposed to all rules of civilized warfare, and worthy only of the blackness of Abolition hearts; and Gen. Lyon richly deserved the death he met, and his men the ried fate that leaves them rolling on many hills.

l dun. I spoke to my wife about it at the time. My wife said it was well dun. It having there4 bin determined to purtect Baldinsville at all hazzurds; and as there was no apprehension of any immejit danger, I thought I would go or f onto a pleasure tower. Accordingly I put on a clearn biled shut and started for Washington. I went there to see the Prints Napoleon, and not to see the place, which I will here take occasion to observe is about as uninterestin a locality as there is side J. Davis's ter home, if ever he does dis, and where I reckon they'll make it so warm for him that he will si for his summer close. It is easy enough to see why a man goes to the poorhouse or the penitentiary. It's becaws he can't help it. But why he should woluntarily go and live in Washington is entirely beyond my comprehension, and I can't say no fairer nor that. I put up to a leadin hotel. I saw the landlord and sed, "How d'ye do. Square?" "Fifty cents, sir," was his reply. "Si
