The Daily Dispatch: November 7, 1860., [Electronic resource], From Utah. (search)
From Utah. --A letter from Great Salt Lake City, dated October 8, states that the "Saints" on the 6th of October opened their semi-annual Conference, which lasted two days, and was attended by the most prominent members of the Church. On the second day Elder Orson Hyde delivered a lengthy discourse, and gave his views on the present political condition of the United States. He predicted that the Union would be dissolved; that the South would be compelled to call in the aid of Great Britain, who, in her turn, would be compelled to call in aid from some other quarter, and concluded by prophesying a great and terrible day of wrath for this country for their injustice to the Mormons.--The Conference was the largest ever held in the city, some thirteen thousand persons having attended it. Judge Kinney, and Mr. Rogers, the Indian agent, had arrived at Salt Lake City.

The Daily Dispatch: December 17, 1860., [Electronic resource], Still another slaver seized — the largest cargo yet. (search)
Still another slaver seized — the largest cargo yet. Another slaver has been seized by our men of war on the African station. She is the brig Bonita, of New York; and was taken off the Congo River by the U. S. steam frigate San Jacinto, which vessel is now in commission about 17 days, having sailed from New York on the 26th of July, 1859. The San Jacinto left Kabenda, where she put in for water on the 6th of October, and on the 10th, at 8 A. M., saw a brigantine without colors, beating towards the north. Steam was immediately got up, extra sails put on, and a vigorous chase commenced. The stranger kept on her course gallantly, with all canvas loose. A gun from the frigate attracted the attention of those on board the Bonita, but was disregarded. A second shot, however, and the increasing speed of the pursuer induced the brig to heave to Lieut. Foster, U. S. N., Lieut. Brooms of the Marines, then put out for the brig and boarded her. Considerable evasion was used to shift th

The Daily Dispatch: October 14, 1861., [Electronic resource], The danger of rebellion in the North! (search)
The danger of rebellion in the North! [From the New York Times, Oct. 6.] The symptoms of a mutinous and seditious spirit against the Government are daily and hourly developing themselves at the North, in the radical wing of the Republican party and among the Abolitionists of the true-blue stripe. Both factions, having been separated by only the breadth of a hair, or the difference between tweedle-dum and tweedle-dee, are now cordially united in opposition to the President, whose manly letter to Fremont is the occasion for the opening of a general fire upon him, from the big sixty-four pounders down to the pop-guns. Even the telegraph at St. Louis is used to spread mutiny through the North. Under these circumstances it is the duty of the conservative elements to come forward and sustain Mr. Lincoln and denounce the Abolition traitors, who are the prime cause of the present misfortunes of the country, and are doing their worst to render permanent the mischief they have wrought.
