The Daily Dispatch: June 6, 1863., [Electronic resource], Vicksburg. (search)
execution of our musketry and artillery at Vicksburg, and Banks's "strategic movements" suddenly cut short at Port Hudson, the great campaign of the West, from which so much was expected by the enemy, bids fair to prove by far the most dsiastrous and gigantic of all their failures in this war. The national craving for lies, which is so eminently characteristic of the Yankees, must have been hugely tickled by the announcement of the hanging of Pemberton by his own troops. This stunning piece of news, together with the no less veracious statement that Grant "has Vicksburg so hemmed in that the enemy cannot use his siege guns," cannot fail to recommend its author, Maj.-Gen. Augur, to the favor of Lincoln and his subjects generally. Augur is now a made man, and we shall be very much disappointed if he does not shortly supersede Hooker, whose performances in the same line, although highly creditable to his inventive genius, Augur has undoubtedly left far behind at one single dash.
The Daily Dispatch: June 6, 1863., [Electronic resource], A British Consul's Exequatur revoked (search)
e another correspondence with that Department. Therefore the President considers it inconsistent with the respect due the Government that he should be allowed to exercise the functions and enjoy the privileges of a Consul in the Confederate States. Mr. Moore is a gentleman whose official and personal intercourse here has been marked heretofore for its propriety and courtesy, and also by a very discreet and intelligent performance of his duties. Present here with the Exequatur of Abraham Lincoln, representing a Government whose singular policy towards us may well embarrass its agents, he has had no very easy or pleasant time of it. Whether or no his conduct towards the Government is the unavoidable result of his official relations, of course, we know not; but an intentional breach of official respect would certainly be inconsistent with his usual deportment. When we first heard of the "Letters Patent," we had hoped that they were general and revoked the Exequatur of consul
The Daily Dispatch: June 6, 1863., [Electronic resource], George 3d and a Lincoln. (search)
George 3d and a Lincoln. If George the Third had been as great a tyrant as Abraham Lincoln, what would he have done with the Divine referred to in the following, which was published at the time in the English papers, from one of which, now before us, Lloyd's Evening Post, we make the extract? "The following is the conclu country." The outburst of indignant eloquence which followed is familiar to every school boy. Again we ask, if George the Third had been as great a tyrant as Abraham Lincoln, what would have become of Lord Chatham. Vallandigham, for not one-tenth of his offence, is banished; others sent to dungeons, others threatened with theNo one in the United States dares to sympathize with the South, or to utter one word in behalf of outraged humanity, except at the peril of liberty or life. Yet George the Third was such a tyrant that America stands vindicated before the world in throwing off his Government. Abraham Lincoln is the pink of Republican Presidents!
The Daily Dispatch: June 6, 1863., [Electronic resource], Major Reid Saunders's capture. (search)
Major Raid Saunders, off the harbor of Charleston, some months ago, and proves conclusively that it was effected through the duplicity of Arnold Harris, who had succeeded in winning the confidence of Saunders. It will be recollected that this Arnold Harris — who was, previous to the war, a trading Pennsylvania politician — was arrested within our lines shortly after the first battle of Manassas, and that his pretext was that he was hunting for the body of Col. Cameron, brother of the then Lincoln Secretary of War. After his arrest Harris was brought to Richmond, where he spent a short apprenticeship in prison, but was subsequently released unconditionally, and permitted to enjoy the freedom of the city. He went North, but afterwards turned up in Richmond again, and, if report be not at fault, succeeded in establishing himself in the confidence of certain officials to an extent that caused him to be selected to assist Saunders in getting to Europe with important dispatches to our C

er of assemblages on the hustings at home. One of these occurred the other day at Hamilton's Crossing, where Senator Semmes, of Louisiana, was received with marks of enthusiasm by Hays's Louisiana brigade. He made an appropriate address to them, which was received with applause. Gen. Hays also spoke to his gallant soldiers. The affair was quite interesting — the feelings excited being the more heartfelt under the recollection that speakers and men were cut off from their homes, and far away from them were fighting the foe who had carried desolation and misery to those homes. Gen. Hays told them that though they had not the pleasure of fighting the enemy on their own soil, they could yet fight him here on a soil consecrated by the blood of a Seymour, a Wheat, and a host of brave Louisianian. Senator Semmes was a citizen of New Orleans. His house is now occupied by the officials under Lincoln's brutal Military Governor of the Department. For the present he resides in Richmond.

a peace by the Administration, except upon the basis of a preservation of the Union, and of the Government established by the Constitution. The despotism of Lincoln's Government next comes in and is appropriately denounced. To this is given a preamble and four resolutions, which are worth reading: Whereas, The great endd carries her object out. Her Council, while they do not represent the feeling of the city, seem determined to imitate her energy, and while they are truckling to Lincoln, intend to go to the lowest depth. The resolutions published below passed both branches of that body by a unanimous vote: Whereas, Clement L. Vallandigham, rched through the streets Monday morning, to the number of several hundred, with banners, on which was inscribed the words, "Twelve hours for a day's labor." Lincoln and family are going to Newport on the 15th inst. Captain Lewis, of the whaling bark Lafayette, which was burned by the pirate Alabama, writes that Captain S
