The Richmond Magnolia, speaking of
Wcksburg, says:
We look upon the downfall of this gem
Of victory crowned cities as one of the
impossibilities of the war. The very
necessity of its retention seems TO endow
1t with impregnability.
1t is the mission of the Yankee Nation
to perform impossiJilties. The Magnolia
adds:
We can see no reason why we may
not have another Lee to move out in front
and another Jackson TO spring upon the
rear of the besiegers. And this we feel
assured viii be the order of the battle.
There was no reason whatever. Penn
