The Daily Dispatch: August 27, 1861., [Electronic resource], Canadian opinion of Newspaper Mobbing (search)
k the truth, except when likely to please, but it does more than almost anything else to lower the American people in the estimation of all civilized nations. We care not what the destroyed journals published. If treasonable matter, then the writers ought to be punished in the due course of law and not by a mob. But if the matter was not treasonable, but only false and venturous, then its undisturbed publication ought to have been permitted. Its suppression by violence is a proof that in Concord and Bangor at least, freedom of opinion does not exist; and the complacency with which the act generally appears to be regarded would perhaps justify us in believing that other and more extended localities are equally unfortunate. Those who have anything to lose in the United States cannot remember too soon that when the mob's idea respecting the rights of meum and get confused, mistakes are likely to be made with property more valuable than that usually contained in newspaper offices.

such outrages. Upon their heads must fall the retribution also. Who, that tells a people "the laws are silent amid arms," has any right to complain of their taking him at his word?--If the laws are silent, why shall the mob at Haverhill, Concord, Bangor or Easton, hear them any more than the Cabinet at Washington? If the laws sleep at all, they are awake to no man. If they are silent at all, they are silent altogether. If the President may suppress a public journal, without color of l in opposition to the will of the tyrant majority. If there is to be a suppression of free discussion at all, let it be done by some spiritual or secular autocrat — some Emperor, King or Pontiff — not by the people themselves. The people of Concord, Bangor, Haverhill, and, lastly, of Westchester county, Pennsylvania, would seem alike destitute of faith in the power of truth and of the first principles of toleration. May these be the last outrages committed at the North which it will be ou

mmencement in the President's house, then occupied by Dr. Lucy, when the President entered, and introduce a gentleman to the company by the name of "Professor Jackson, of Va" He was a tall, rather noticeable person of such tussive manners, and t engaged in conversation with some of those near him while in the room, and presently took his leave. It was understood that he was to be married in a few days to a daughter of the Rev. Dr. R. H. Morrison, a leading member of the Presbytery of Concord, and pastor of a church in the into whose family General Hill had presently married. This was the only we ever had at the man who has since won so much notoriety as General "Stonewall" Jackson. His first wife, as is well known, was the daughter of Dr. George Junkin, now of Philadelphia. Yellow Flyer at Key West. A letter to the New York Tribune, dated Key West, Fla.

sposed and the prison keepers be put in prison, and insanity have the charge of sanity. You will excuse me for quoting a bard who is considered by many of his brethren to be himself as mad as a March hare, but there is much method and not a little wisdom in "Wait. Whitman, one of the roughs, a cosmos, disorderly, fleshly, sensual," who lounges and loafs at his ease, and sounds his "barbaric yawp over the roofs of the world." Nathaniel Hawthorne. Mr. Nathaniel Hawthorne, of Concord, Mass., author of "The Scarlet Letter," "The House with the Seven Gables," "Transformation," and many other charming and deservedly popular works, when you took upon yourself to hold up to obloquy and ridicule our English matrons — to sneer at their "streakiness" and "beefiness," and to allude, not very delicately, to the large space of their Maker's footstool they occupied when they sat down — there were those who thought you did a stupid and an ill mannered thing. But let that pass. We

Various mysterious telegrams are published as being received at Buffalo, &c., to prepare for a raid from Canada, in which "some leading Canadians" are represented as being among the raiders. [No Democrats to vote at Niagars Falls and Buffalo, of course.] Letter-writers from Grant's army say the Dutch Gap canal will be finished about Christmas. The Lucy, Lady Stirling and Anna, blockade-runners, have been captured. Every man who is put into the United States service in Concord. New Hampshire, has his photograph accurately taken. On the back of it his descriptive list is placed, and it is then field away for future reference. A movement is on foot in New York to send fifty thousand turkeys to General Grant for a thanksgiving dinner for the Army of the Potomac. Fifty thousand barrels of apples are to constitute the dessert. A drafted man committed suicide by drowning in the river at Cincinnati on Friday last.

d and thirty-seven deserted on the passage, leaving only four hundred and eighty-eight to arrive at the regiment.--Of the four hundred and eighty eight who got to the regiment and were assigned to companies, eighty-two deserted to the enemy from picket line; thirty-six deserted to the rear; four have been discharged as utterly worthless, their physical incapacity being so glaring, and of such long standing, that it must have been known at the time of enlistment; five have been sent back to Concord, to have their cases of enlistment investigated, by order of the War Department; and two have been discharged by order of the War Department. Thus, out of six hundred and twenty-five of these bounty tempted warriors sent to one regiment only since August last, there are only three hundred and fifty-nine left; and, as these have come to the army through the same venal influences, and probably gone through the same loose or fraudulent examination, it is impossible to tell how many more may f
