DAILY DISPATCH, Richmond, Virginia, July 17, 1863
* From the capital of the Confederacy
* Robert E. Lee's retreat from Gettysburg
From the capital of the Confederacy, with reports headed: "Gen. Lee in Virginia" "No Cause for Despondency" "Gen. Lee's Army--The Potomac Re-Crossed" which relates to the return south from the failed battles at Gettysburg. One bit notes in part: "...The news that our army has again returned to Virginia will doubtless create a damper upon the feelings of the enthusiastic, who saw the invasion of Pennsylvania reason to believe that there was nothing to prevent Gen. Lee's successful march to Philadelphia...".
Also: "Progress Of The War" "The Yankees In James River" "The Extravagance of the Yankee Contractors" "Yankee Deserter" "The Condition of the Slaves Working Under Yankee Rule--Their Wages" and more.
