HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF
From the Daily Richmond Enqoirer, Thursday morning; November 23, 1854.
It was 107 years ago and die people of Virginia were very much upset about a number of things. Some of the problems were much the same as they are today, adding more faith in the old saying that “History Repeats Itself.”
The Enquirer reprinted from a New Orleans paper the following news story:
“The steamer JBlack Warrior from Havana, with dates to the 16th has arrived; The Delta announces having! received information from authentic source, that the inhabitants,of Cuba are in the wildest state of enthusiasm and contemplate an important uprising in a few days. The same paper published a bold and energetic proclamation issued from the Cuba Club of Terrorists. The other papers of this city, however, have no information in reguard to the matter and discredit the report. The Governor of Trinidad is reported to be a prisoner in Havana.”
Had we read the above in our morning paper, we wouldn't have been at all surprised.
