allahassee and Chickamauga) were set on fire and blew up with a heavy explosion after the enemy had set fire to the fort. This was followed by some minor explosions. The barracks were apparently in flames all night, and some small works between Fisher and Caswell were blown up. The enemy commenced burning up everything in Wilmington, and were getting away as fast as they could. In the meantime a large force of gun-boats occupied the river between Caswell and Wilmington. The latter place was halted and allowed my men to seek cover, while, in company with Acting Lieutenant-Commander Danels, of the Vanderbilt, I collected straggling sailors and marines, and formed the men under some sand-hills on the beach, about six hundred yards from Fisher. We had collected quite a number of men, when I received orders from Lieutenant-Commander F. B. Blake to take my men, and as many more as I could find, and report to General Terry, United States Army, the object being to occupy, with sailors and

blame, will, I hope, be known! As if the blame could rest on any but the one who went to Fort Fisher in command of the troops, and disobeyed orders by not intrenching himself under the protection of the guns of the fleet. Grant had seen enough of the Navy on the Mississippi to know that it would not back out of such an adventure as the taking of Fort Fisher. The Navy had given him sufficient evidence in much more desperate undertakings to have satisfied him that it would stay before Fisher as long as a shot or pound of coal was left. The historian says: This dispatch was written before Grant had heard from Porter, or from Butler's own subordinates; subsequently he was inclined (!) to attribute the failure to other causes. Other causes than the Navy, we suppose; and here Badeau relates the difficulties with which the fleet and transports had to contend in getting to the scene of action, and makes the following sensible remark: But whatever the delay, and whatever the ca

icted upon the enemy. It must have been great. There were more than a hundred wagons burned, a thousand sacks of flour and corn, and a large quantity of clothing and horse equipments. The buildings and cars were full of property, collected for the use of the Southern army. All private property we respected, and I believe that none whatever was destroyed. By the light of the burning buildings we left the station and marched for the court-house, which had been previously occupied by Captain Fisher with companies A and G, who had placed pickets there and taken a captain and four men prisoners. We passed through the court-house and marched down to within seven miles of Richmond, where we bivouacked till eight o'clock the next morning, when we marched for Williamsburgh. At Tunstall Station (near the White House and the Richmond and Yorktown Railroad) a train of cars filled with infantry and a battery of three guns, was run out to oppose us. I thought it best to make an effort to
