The Daily Dispatch: may 9, 1861., [Electronic resource], "Things are Progressing." (search)
"Things are Progressing."
--The Wilmington (N. C.) Journal, in an editorial upon the events of the day, says:
As soon as Virginia and North Carolina are actually members of the Confederacy, they will be ready to show that they are live members.
Things are progressing, if not with telegraphic speed, at least as fast as they can be expected to get along, and before Lincoln is ready to march his men in buckram, as programmed by the New York Tribune and Herald, we rather think that his heroes will find the Potomac, the Rappahannock, the James river, and Roanoke, to resemble Jordan in the important particular of being "a hard road to travel."
