The Daily Dispatch: December 29, 1864., [Electronic resource], Confederate Congress. (search)
outh Carolina was completely subdued, had hardly been published in the Gazette, when news arrived that these bold partizans had already rekindled the war. Cornwallis, like Sherman, commenced his march northward. He overthrew the army of Gates at Camden, and, for awhile, put an end to all regular opposition. But Marion and Sumpter were still at work, and in less than two months after Camden, came King's Mountain; and in three months more, the defeat of Tarlton at the Cowpens by Morgan's regularCamden, came King's Mountain; and in three months more, the defeat of Tarlton at the Cowpens by Morgan's regulars and militia. We are more fortunate than were our forefathers. They lost Charleston, and with it a whole army. We have simply lost Savannah, which had been blockaded and rendered useless for two years. The army is safe, intact, and existing, to serve as a nucleus around which reinforcements may rally. The column which Sherman has sent to the South is supposed to have gone in search of the prisoners, which, thus far, he has failed to capture. We do not think he is likely to find them.
