The Daily Dispatch: May 21, 1863., [Electronic resource], A New Southern work on Military Surgery. (search)
A New Southern work on Military Surgery. --Those enterprising publishers Messrs. West & Johnston, have just issued a new and valuable work on Military Surgery, by Dr. Edward Warren, the present Surgeon-General of the State of North Carolina, and lately a Professor in the University of Maryland. As its title implies, it is an epitome, and contains within a small compass a vast deal of information on the important science of which it treats. The style is perspicuous and condensed, and the work affords evidence of much labor and learning, as well as practical acquaintance with the subjects discussed. Altogether, it is a valuable contribution to Southern medical science, and as such ought to be in the hands of every Confederate surgeon.--Its author has successfully accomplished his task, and his book will have, we are sure, an extensive and well- deserved popularity.
The Daily Dispatch: May 21, 1863., [Electronic resource], Affairs at Vicksburg. (search)
ce to the defence of this place, and, without presuming to know more than others, we predict that all will be well there on the great day of trial of strength between the two armies. There is nothing, in our judgment, in the recent repulse of Gen. Pemberton to lead to the belief that there is any danger of the fall, immediate or remote, of Vicksburg. We are informed from various sources that our forces within the entrenchments, extending from the city as far back as the Big Black, have a supply of provisions sufficient to subsist them for four months. In the late fight only a portion of our forces were engaged, and Gen. Johnston, who is now in command of all the forces employed for the protection of the place, with the reinforcements sent to his aid, had not arrived in time to participate in the struggle. His dispatch the day subsequent to the fight was dated forty miles from the scene of the engagement. From all we can gather we are decidedly hopeful as to the final issue.
