The Daily Dispatch: September 5, 1861., [Electronic resource], The invasion of North Carolina. (search)
The invasion of North Carolina. The Newbern (N. C.) Progress, of Monday, has the following in reference to the operations of the Federalists on the coast: A rumor reached here on Saturday morning that Beacon Island and Oregon fortifications had fallen in the hands of the enemy and that Portsmouth had been burned. This report, however, was discredited. Later in the day the garrison, all except eight or ten, from Beacon Island arrived here, having abandoned the place from a sense of inone; but then, "it won't do to grieve over spilt milk." The long dreaded calamity has come upon us. Hatteras, Ocracoke and Oregon Inlets have fallen into the hands of the Federals, and with them free access to the entire inland waters of Eastern North Carolina--more extensive, perhaps, than that of any other State on the continent.

Picayune Butler becomes forthwith one of the greatest Generals of the age, and old Wool announces his exploits in tones that would become a victory such as Austerlitz or Jena. Success is a novelty to them, even on the most limited scale. Can such a people hope to hold Arlington Heights and Washington, and Maryland, when our Generals choose to advance ? They cannot. Their General is
The Daily Dispatch: September 5, 1861., [Electronic resource], Another interesting narrative of a cruise in the ocean. (search)
