SUBJUGATION

The enemy are not so much gratified by the result as the promise.  As testified by the reception in Tennessee, they can only subjugate us by holding, occupying and possessing every foot of ground.  The ____ fancied, are found to be creatures of the imagination.  Since Nashville was taken, one dashing trooper—Jack Morgan—with a company of Cavalry, has captured or killed between four and five hundred invader’s pickets.  A tremor pervades the whole host.  They never feel safe twenty yards from the main army.  This fact is fatal to the hope of subjugation.  It will take an army of Yankees on every square mile of the Southern Confederacy to ensure submission; and even that would not suffice.

Richmond Whig
