n the other, greater pluck and determination. No one who witnessed the battle can question the courage and fighting qualities of the men of the Northwest They fought splendidly; and yet, notwithstanding all their advantages, they were no match for the men of the Southwest, who fought in front of their own doors, and in sight of their wives and little ones. One was the wanton invader; the other the desperate defender of his own hearthstone. It is not probable that the enemy will seek Beauregard for some days to come. It is reported that Gen. Matreck, the Commander of the Western Department has arrived at Gen. Grant's headquarters, and will take the field in person. He will probably seek to unite all the forces on the Mississippi and Tennessee, and elsewhere in his department, before he again assumes the offensive. The next battle, therefore, promises to be the bloodiest and most decisive of the war. Possibly we may find it necessary to change our position, and the enemy may ev
The Daily Dispatch: may 5, 1862., [Electronic resource], Letter from Charleston. (search)
The enemy has been very quiet until Tuesday last, when they attacked a small battery of two light guns manned by eight men of the Washington Artillery, of Charleston, station at White Point. They spiked the guns after shelling the position for a length of time, but did not retire without some loss, as they were attacked by another section of the same battery on their retreat down the stream with evident loss to themselves. No one of our men was injured. We feel great anxiety for Beauregard's army at Corinth principally from the fact of large reinforcements training been received by them, and the possible neglect of such a wise measure on the part of our Government. That place is regarded as a thousand times more important than the fall of New Orleans, from which the enemy will delve but little of the fruits of a great victory. Speaking of New Orleans, we are in the dark about the whole affair — whether the fort succumbed; whether the Louisiana and Mr as steamers were lost;

A flag of truce — interesting Particulars. The fact that Gen. Beauregard on the 17th of April, sent a flag of truce to Gen. Buell, in relation to our wounded in the battle of Shiloh, has already been noticed. The following very interesting account of the interview was obtained by the correspondent of the N. C. Picayunes from Lieut. Sam. S. Harris, who accompanied the flag to the enemy's line, as the bearer of Gen. Beauregard's dispatch: Lieut. Harris, on reaching the line of the enemy's pickets, which are about half a mile northeast from the neutral hospital halted his escort, when he was approached by Lieut. Wickliffe, of the 1st Kentucky regimee to send him by Harris two bottles of brandy. Harris regretted he could not conveniently carry the bottles. Gen. McCook then expressed some surprise at Gen. Beauregard having address and his dispatch to Gen. Buell, instead of Grant, saying that the latter was in command. The messenger now returned, when Gen. McCook info

r the battle of Shiloh, to one of the New Orleans Journals. The writer, after describing the scene in some of our on Sunday night, thus proceeds: In one of these tents there was enacted a scene with possesses a peculiar and historical interest. It was the tent occupied by one of the officers of the gallant 4th Kentucky, Capt. Monroe, son of the venerable Judge Monroe, had received on the battle held a new and valuable recruit. He had arrived during the day as one of the aids of Gen. Beauregard, but from his deafness and want with military matters had concluded that he could be of more service another position. He had already fought in the ranges of Captain Monroe's company and now, at night, while occupying the same tent with the Captain, it occurred in him that he had not taken the oath which him to in that company. He therefore desired the oath to be administered, which was done with "and new," said the recruit, "I will take a night's rest, and be ready for a good d
