The Daily Dispatch: July 25, 1861., [Electronic resource], I know you are now. (search)
From Pensacola. --The Pensacola correspondent of the Mobile Evening News writes (July 16) as follows: To-day the broad blue pennant of Com. Mervin was transferred from the Mississippi to a newly- arrived frigate, supposed to be the Colorado. No new arrival in the squadron within the last twenty-four hours. Mark Boothby, the sailor deserter of Santa Rosa, is still below. He is allowed all privileges desired, and kindly treated by our folks — in fact, a perfect lion. In the city, yesterday, many little kindnesses were tendered him — particularly by the volunteers — juleps, cock tails, coblers, &c., were proffered him without limit. Jack, like all his race, couldn't resist the temptation, and gave way once or twice to importunities of this character. He expresses himself highly delighted with "rebel" treatment, and intends to pitch his tent among them for all time to come. He is a pleasant fellow, and looked quite military, mounted on one of Clanton's horses. <
