Charlotte, North Carolina, March 15th, 1865,
Charlotte is in a state of great excitement to-day, at the
arrival of the President's family, on their way South. What does it mean?
Everybody seems to think it is the prelude to the abandonment of Richmond. How
sad it seems after such a struggle as that noble army has made to keep it!
These terrible dark hours, when will they be past?
