The Daily Dispatch: June 18, 1862., [Electronic resource], President Davis (search)
Experiments have lately been made at Washington which show that iron plates are not proof against rifle cannon shot. A target, composed of six iron laminated plates, completely riddled and broken up by two and-a-half pound leaden balls, is exhibited there. James Thrasher, a prominent merchant of London, who lately returned from, that city to Louisville, has been arrested by the military. Sir George St. Leger drenfell, a dashing cavalry officer, formerly of the British army, who distinguished himself in the Crimes and in Africa has joined our forces at Chattanooga. Federal reports say that among the recently captured prisoners in Southwestern Missouri are Jamp Massey, Gov. Jackson's Secretary of State, and two Confederate Colonels. A Washington dispatch to the New York Herald says-- "The condition of affairs in the Valley of Virginia is somewhat embarrassing. There are at present six Major-Generals with separate commands there."
The Daily Dispatch: June 18, 1862., [Electronic resource], Jackson's army. (search)
Jackson's army. It is no longer a secret that heavy reinforcements have been sent to "Stonewall" Jackson, in the Valley, and that he now has an army sufficiently large to cope with any force that can be brought against him by the enemy. What the exact number of these reinforcements are we are unable to say, as they have all. They are in a measure veterans, and burning with ardor to join their companions in arms, to share with them the glory of the brilliant campaign in the Valley. Jackson now has as many men as he wants — as many as can be managed successfully in the mountainous district through which he will have to march in order to reach the terory more glorious than any before. There is no doubt as to the result. No better comment could be made upon the military resources of the South than is shown by the fact that, while our armies at all important points have steadily received accessions, a large body of men have been sent to swell the ranks of the army of Jackson.
