[correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch.] from the Peninsula — re Enlistments — the Old Dominion Dragoons, &c., &c., Army of the Peninsula, February 6, 1862. Our roads on the Peninsula, rendered bad by the frequent rains of January, are now almost impassable, except by troopers, I am happy, however, in being able to state that the health of our men has much improved of late, as the closing of one of the Williamsburg hospitals shows. This will be gratifying intelligence to all who have friends in the Peninsular army. The re-enlisting of volunteers goes Bravely on, and you may rent assured that before the present time expires a large number will have enrolled their names. The battle at Somereset, and subsequent retreat of our army there, has, so far from disheartening our troops given an impetus to re-enlisting, and an assurance of future success. Among the many efforts being made of increasing our army, is one down here which will render more effective a valuable

As a large number are already enlisted in this enterprise, we sincerely trust — indeed, believe — that Captain Vaughan's efforts will secure a battalion of mounted men. We may also say that Capt. Vaughan was born and raised within three miles of Bethel, has practiced medicine in Hampton and surrounding country for twelve years, and is thoroughly acquainted with the lower peninsula. The gailant men of his command have the same advantages Gen. Magruder has repeatedly acknowledged the invaluable aid rendered by the Old Dominion Dragoons; and a battalion composed of like material would be of still greater efficiency. It is greatly desired, for the good of our cause, that the Government will render such aid as will effect the object proposed.

November (search for this): article 1
The reduction of Norfolk would be the work of months, and could only be effected by a large increase of Burnside's forces, an increase which the Yankee exchequer is not able to afford for an operation stretching through a protracted period. Nothing at all can save their Treasury, and nothing can keep the war on foot, but rapid operations and decisive successes. Yet, we do not see wherein the Burnside expedition promises these results more unmistakably than Sherman's did, which landed in November, nearly three months ago. Measured by its cost to the enemy, not even the capture of Norfolk, if it could be effected, would compensate him for his outlays, and this at last is the true standard by which his successes should be estimated. The South need not expect, and cannot rationally expect, that these huge expeditions, fitted out at immense expense, should fail to effect any achievement. Fifteen on twenty thousand men landed anywhere upon our seaboard must succeed in getting poss

The campaign in Carolina. Untill within a day or two past, the capture of Roanoke Island by Burnside was considered a foregone conclusion. A fleet of nearly a hundred sail and an army of fifteen or twenty thousand men, with guns and equipmentsign ourselves to the conclusion which a day or two of hope — we confess not strong in our own case — had unsettled. Burnside has landed, after a hard fight, on a seaboard island, not as advantageously situated, nor encompassed by as rich surroune seem to have that single object for the present in view, and it has been repeatedly declared by Northern journals that Burnside's primary purpose is a demonstration upon our railroad. It remains to be seen whether such be his real design, and withr three to one. The reduction of Norfolk would be the work of months, and could only be effected by a large increase of Burnside's forces, an increase which the Yankee exchequer is not able to afford for an operation stretching through a protracted
