The Daily Dispatch: December 5, 1861., [Electronic resource], Mr. Russell's last letters to the London times. (search)
as it is often the case while there is some impatience on the one side on account or delays occasioned by reverses and deficiency of organization, there is on the other side an impatience, because considerable successes in much of what they attempted are not absolute success in all they, (the confederates) boasted they would accomplish.--The vaunting three months men who came down from the North, filling the air with their promises to be in New Orleans in a few days, disappeared with the 21st of July, and there are now a more sober set of men in the army, who would be content to compromise with Richmond before winter is over. On the other hand, the Confederates, who wished to dictate peace in Philadelphia and "old Fannies" itself, would, perhaps, be glad to put up with Washington and Baltimore as a base of negotiations, although the Richmond papers are beginning to groan over a long war in prospect, arising, as they think, from the defensive attitude assumed by the Southern armies.
