The Daily Dispatch: August 21, 1862., [Electronic resource], The evacuation of Berkeley. (search)
The evacuation of Berkeley. Our latest advices represent that the last of the Grand Army of the Potomac embarked on Friday night, and steamed down the river before daylight. Whither it has gone, or where it will be heard from next, it is impossible to say, but think it more than probable that they have gone to act in conjunction with Burnside and Pope on the Rappahannock. In their evacuation they left a large quantity of stores and many valuable articles behind them. Seven gunboats are now plying up and down the river, as if in pursuit of masked batteries and Confederate artillery.

neral McClellan has abandoned Harrison's Landing, and is now on his march to Williamsburg. This has been the rumor for many days, and we see in the New York Times an elaborate and very circumstantial account of the evacuation, as far as it has taken place. What McClellan proposes to gain by this we do not know. It would be idle to speculate in the absence of the facts, and ignorant as we are of the immediate circumstances surrounding his retreat. By some it is thought he intends to join Burnside at Aquia Creek, and consolidate all our troops on the Rappahannock. Others anticipate a crossing of the James river and an advance upon Petersburg, while all admit that the war on the Peninsula is over. What will become of Norfolk it is impossible to say. Fortress Monroe becomes a garrisoned fort of minor importance, our gunboats will hold the rivers and the towns on their banks. We turn our eyes to other portions of the map, and find a new scene for our drama. Where will it be? Ge
