ird year, nor to rejoice at the achieved success of his country in its great struggle. Placed where his duty called him, apart from the main current of the war, and from association with familiar friends, there is something peculiarly pathetic in his brief military career, terminating, as it began, on the outpost of civilized life. Thomas Rodman Robeson. Second Lieutenant 2d Mass. Vols. (Infantry,) May 28, 1861; first Lieutenant, November 30, 1861; Captain, August 10, 1862 died July 6, 1863, at Gettysburg, Pa., July 3. Thomas Rodman Robeson was born in New Bedford, November 7, 1840. He was a son of Thomas Rodman and Sibyl (Washburn) Robeson. Through his mother he was a descendant of Roger Williams. His father was long engaged in the shipping business, and died August 13, 1848. He was a son of Andrew Robeson, a prominent merchant and successful manufacturer of New Bedford. Andrew Robeson established, under many discouragements and difficulties, the print-works which b

t of the blockade-runners, especially in the last year of the war. In the Gulf, Havana had a similar importance. The run to the coast of Florida was only a little over one hundred miles. But Key West was inconveniently near, the Gulf blockade was strict, and after New Orleans was captured, the trade offered no such inducements as that on, the Atlantic coast. Nevertheless it is stated by Admiral Bailey, on the authority of intercepted correspondence of the enemy, that between April 1 and July 6, 1863, fifty vessels left Havana to run the blockade. The situation of Matamoras was somewhat peculiar. It was the only town of any importance on the single foreign frontier of the Confederacy. Situated opposite the Texan town of Brownsville, on the Rio Grande, about forty miles from its mouth, and in neutral territory, it offered peculiar advantages for contraband trade. The Rio Grande could not be blockaded. Cargoes shipped for Matamoras were transferred to lighters at the mouth of th

he moved on until he came to a creek, where he captured a skiff, and in this he made his way the next night to the picket-boat at the mouth of the river. The rest of the party, unable either to resist or to escape, surrendered, and were taken ashore by a boat from the Albemarle. The ram heeled over and sank at her moorings and so remained until Plymouth was finally recaptured. The South Atlantic Blockading Squadron had but two commanders, Dupont and Dahlgren. The transfer was made July 6, 1863. Dupont's command opened with the victory of Port Royal, which gave the squadron the best and most commodious harbor on the Atlantic coast. After the first success, the activity of Admiral Dupont, seconded by the ability and energy of his captains—a body of officers remark- Entrances to Charleston harbor able for their high professional qualities—secured the control of the vast network of lagoons and inlets extending on the one hand to Charleston, and on the other to Fernandina.

d this morning. The only terms allowed is their parole as prisoners of war. This I regard as a great advantage to us at this juncture. It saves probably several days in the capture, and leaves troops and transports ready for immediate service. Sherman, with a large force, moves immediately on Johnston to drive him from the state. I will send troops to the relief of Banks, and return the Ninth Army Corps to Burnside. General Grant to General Halleck.—(Cipher telegram.) Vicksburg, July 6, 1863. The number of prisoners and pieces of artillery taken with Vicksburg is greater than was at first supposed. The number proves to be over thirty thousand prisoners, and over one hundred and seventy pieces of artillery. We have found considerable ammunition and about four days rations of flour and bacon, and two hundred and fifty pounds of sugar. The small-arms are of good quality and over fifty thousand in number. Sherman is after Johnston, but no news from him to-day. General
