United States (United States) (search for this): article 2
Confederate States Congress. In the House very little business was transacted. The Chair laid before the House several Senate bills, which were given an appropriate reference. A resolution was adopted fixing the future hour of meeting of the House at 11 o'clock, instead of 12 as at present.
United States (United States) (search for this): article 1
The President's reception. --Yesterday the first formal reception of the President of the Confederate States was held at the Executive mansion in this city. The crowd that availed themselves of the opportunity of testifying their appreciation of the Chief Magistrate, and their devotion to the cause of which he is the chosen representative, was large in numbers and respectable in character. They were welcomed by the President and received by his lady. The reception was devoid of that snobbery which attends the levees of the vulgar tycoon who occupies the Presidential chair at Washington, and was in all respects worthy of the President of a great people struggling against the oppressions of a barbarous and Vandalic enemy.
Hutchinson (search for this): article 2
Picking a lady's pocket. --On Thursday afternoon last Mrs. Hutchinson, of this city, had her pocket picked of a porte-monnale containing about $30 and two certificates of deposit on the Bank of Virginia, while returning home on the Richmond and Fredericksburg railroad cars. The papers in the pocket book can be of no sort of value to the thief, who should return them to the owner through the post-office or otherwise. Ladies in traveling on the cars would do well to secure their funds and other valuables, as scores of picks, of both ages and sexes, are reaping rich harvests in public conveyances.
John H. Morgan (search for this): article 3
A disappointment. --The announcement that Gen. John H. Morgan would arrive on the Danville train yesterday afternoon drew to the depot quite a large and miscellaneous crowd, who seemed disposed to endure the cold for the sake of having a glance at the distinguished chieftain. Great was the disappointment when at 5 o'clock it was announced that the General would not be in on the train and probably would not reach the city before the middle of the coming week. It is understood that his detention results from the serious indisposition of his wife.
George Appleton (search for this): article 6
An old Rogue. --George Appleton, an old basin rat, too lazy to work, was before the Mayor yesterday, on charge of stealing a coat of Charles, a slave. After hearing the evidence, George was handed over to the Manager of the chain-gang, to be usefully employed on the public streets.

Greensboro (North Carolina, United States) (search for this): article 11
Death among the enemy. --A gentleman from one of the eastern, within the line of the enemy, informs us, on the authority of a Yankee official, that the negroes which are held in Newbern by the Federals, are dying at the rate of 25 to 50 per day. In addition to being entirely without shelter, they are suffering from small-pox, and some very malignant disease, the name of which our informant could not recollect. Such being the case, if the Yankees continue to steal slaves from their comfortable and healthful homes, their guilt can hardly be estimated to its full extent. The gentleman who brings this intelligence is known to be worthy of all credit, and he thinks that there will surely be an abandonment of negro stealing in our eastern borders for the time to come. We forgot to add that the contrabands in Newbern are also in a naked and starving condition.--Greensboro' (N. C.) Patriot.

Missionary Ridge, Tenn. (Tennessee, United States) (search for this): article 12
The "rebel's" last Request. --The following extract was taken from a Northern paper of a late date: In passing over the battle-field of Missionary Ridge our correspondent noticed a rebel soldier badly wounded, and, being touched with pity at his sufferings, asked the dying man if there was anything he could do for him. The rebel replied, "Thank you, friend; there is nothing, unless you have such a thing as a gold dollar about you. I should like to see one again before I die!"
