The Daily Dispatch: February 14, 1862., [Electronic resource], Address from a South Carolina (?) lady at Albany in Denunciation of the South. (search)
o him, as well as to Gen. Crittenden, demands that we should disabuse the public mind of any impression that might have been created by a perusal of the letter in question. With regard to the earlier career of Gen. Crittenden, which has recently been a theme of discussion it may be proper to add here, that soon after the Mexican war he was court- martialed, and by the court-martial dismissed. The President approved the sentence, as is usual in such cases, and sent to the Senate an appointment to fill the vacancy. The Senate went into an examination of the record, and finding that gross injustice had been done him, refused to recognize a vacancy; so he was retained in his position.--It has been stated that Gen. Crittenden was dismissed from the old service; but the above is the only occasion on which he was before a court-martial. It is understood that he now desires and claims the fullest investigation of the random charges made against him since the affair at Fishing Creek.
