A Rebel War Clerk’s Diary at the Confederate States Capital, By John Beauchamp Jones
    

Rebel War Clerk

A likeness of Jones when he was editor and majority owner of the Daily Madisonian during President John Tyler’s administration.

APRIL 23d.—The North Carolinians have refused to give up Dibble to Gen. Winder. And, moreover, the governor has demanded the rendition of a citizen of his State, who was arrested there by one of Gen. Winder’s detectives, and brought hither. The governor says, if he be not delivered up, he will institute measures of retaliation, and arrest every alien policeman from Richmond caught within the limits of his jurisdiction.
