No Dispatches


The lovely weather yesterday had the effect to choke off telegraphic dispatches more completely than Secretary Stanton ever thought of.  Not a line was vouchsaved us, but we’ll probably hear something this morning, and if it be sufficient importance will proclaim it to the world in an EXTRA GAZETTE.

– Published in The Davenport Daily Gazette, Davenport, Iowa, Saturday Morning, March 15, 1862, p. 1
