The Daily Dispatch: June 3, 1863., [Electronic resource], Yankee rejoicing (search)
Yankee rejoicing --Advices from New Orleans to the 16th instant represent the Yankees as rejoicing with incontinent joy over the report that Hooker had discomfited Lee, and was pressing forward his triumphant army for Richmond. The delightful telegram that so moved the Yankee heart with tumultuous joy declares that Lee was entirely defeated, and that Jackson lost 18,000 of the 20,000 he carried into the fight.

The Daily Dispatch: June 3, 1863., [Electronic resource], The capture of Vicksburg. (search)
atch says that "the great river has at last been won and Vicksburg is ours." All this is in types of the most appalling size. The editor adds a note, saying that he is assured that another dispatch had passed over the wires from "a high source in the South" to "a high source in the East," confirming the capture of Vicksburg and Pemberton's whole army. Capt. McNeill's battery, which had just arrived in the city, fired a salute of 100 guns in honor of the tremendous victory. In the editorial column it says "our victory is perfect and complete. Everything moved harmoniously to the consummation of the grand achievement which virtually settles the issues of the war." "All praise under God to the gallant and victorious army of the West." The editor thinks it rather a good joke on "Jeff. Davis," who had visited and inspected the fortifications there, and believes it to be the "death knell of the Southern Confederacy." He then goes on to say whip out Bragg and Lee and restore the Union.
