"Some of the Richmond dailies have started a new Press Association. They are welcome to do so. Leaving Jackson, Mississippi, out of the question, we most honestly think that Richmond is the meanest place in the Confederacy to get dispatches from. If Richmond can do without the Press Association, we know that the Association ought to be able to do without Richmond. We can."--Wilmington Journal. How can the Wilmington Journal saddle the "new press association" with those "dispatches" from Jackson and Richmond which so disgusted its editor, and which were published before the "new association" was formed? And with what justice can those dispatches provoke the Journal to such utter indifference to the association and ("most unkindest cut of all!") to this great city? It would be too bad that the Journal should leave the Confederate capital and the association entirely in the dark by withdrawing the sunshine of its approbation from them because it has made so inconsistent a deduction from its own premises!
