248 - L Jan. 6; ed: 2/1 - "The Rebel Senator Brown of Mississippi has gone
into ecstascies of legislative lunacy."
Senator Brown says that every white man of any age, occupation, reli-
gion, etc., should be conscripted into the Confederate army.
He could not trust the Negroes, so they would be barred. The duties
of civil life would thus be performed by army detail. Hatred of the
Confederate cause is very noticeable. (8)
