Excerpt from The Richmond Age, Vol. 1: A Southern Electric Magazine; January, 1864 Under these circumstances the effect produced might be supposed to be fore seen with absolute certainty. Transpa rent impudence, coarse and vulgar violence, might be expected to be receiv ed iu only one way. Nobody would claim to be a prophet for saying that pretensions so urged would be certain to be met with seem and defiance. And yet the most singular feature in the whole case is not that a nation which receives all its impulses fiom below should be ignorant in its assertions and unjust in its demands, but that another nation, claim ing to be proud in its independence, sensitive for its honor, and able and willing to hold its own against all comers, has indulgently condoned the impudence, bridged over the deficiency of logic, and admitted this coarse unreason to more than the privileges of reason. Thousand must have been astonished, like ourselves, at this singular result; at the mild rejoin ders of our press and the concession of our Government.
