Wabash, Port Royal Harbor, S. C., April 28, 1862. Sir: --I have just me this morning, before the Department of the Susquenan to inform the Department of the rroval here of the rebel steamer Isabel, (Ellen Worley) in charge of Lieutenancy Gibson and a prize crow she having been captured by the J g de Cuba, Commander Ridgeley, one hundred miles north of Abaco. She is deeply loaded with ld and has, supposed, rifled cannon in her hold, which has not yet been examined. These guns were taken on board or course, at one of the neutral colonies off our coast. I am informed by Lieutenant Gibson that the St. Jago de Cuba discovered and chased the Nashville; but the latter was much too swift for her. The Nashville also has guns on board for the reb 1., intended to run the blockade, if possible. Very respectfully, your ob't serv't, H. F. Dupont, Flag Officer Com'g, &c. Hon. Gideon Welles, Secretary Navy, Washington. New York, May 3--The United States gunboat
e killed and nine wounded, a list of whom I enclose. Our 6th regiment is the finest in the service, and has been on duty constantly since we have been in this part of Virginia. It is commanded by Mejor Williams, of the regular army. The wounded are all doing well at the house of a Mr. Thos. S. Morris, near there the engagement took place, which is being used as a hospital for these men, and is under the immediate care of Dr. Pooley, of the regular army. Before the engagement was ended Capt. Gibson arrived upon the ground with his battery, and quickly dispersed what remained of the enemy. Our men subsequently found the body of Charles O'Hara, of Columbus, Ohio, in the woods. A private in the 2d Rhode Island regiment, Company A, was wounded in a very singular manue. during the engagement. He had gone into a directed house in the neighborhood, and was investigating the contents of a flour barrel, when he was shot through the leg by a gun that had been placed there purposely as
The Daily Dispatch: may 22, 1862., [Electronic resource], The negro at home--what one who saw for himself has to say (search)
The negro at home--what one who saw for himself has to say --Colonel Gibson, of the 49th Ohio, recently wrote a letter from Tennessee, which is attracting some notice. Gibson will be recollected as the Republican successor to Breklin, as State Treasurer of Ohio, and that under his administration the great defalcation was discovered. He writes thus about the condition of the slaves, as observed by himself: "In this region every one owns one or more slaves Here, as elsewhere, where IGibson will be recollected as the Republican successor to Breklin, as State Treasurer of Ohio, and that under his administration the great defalcation was discovered. He writes thus about the condition of the slaves, as observed by himself: "In this region every one owns one or more slaves Here, as elsewhere, where I have been, the slaves are well treated and well provided for. They appear happier, and certainly live and dress better, than the poor whiles or the free negro of Ohio or the North. They all supposed we were about to liberate them — This he has been trumpeted in the South, and hundreds of honest people, aside from slaves, believed it. But the negro here the dreads the North. They love the South and are devoted to their masters. "I have witnessed some touching science between exited maste
slavery in the vast region of country covered by South Carolina' Georgia, and Florida! The letter is from the pen of Col. Gibson, of Ohio, who commands the 49th regiment of that State. He was the Republican State Treasurer of Ohio, and detected the immense defalcation of his predecessor, Brealin. We copy what Col. Gibson has to say, and reply to his charge that the South lies when it says the Yankees mean to abolish slavery, by appending to his letter Gen. Hunter's official declaration of emancipation in South Carolina, Georgia, and Florida. We present this contradiction to Gibson not because it is the only one. The Lincoln Government has been engaged in abolition ever since it begun the war. Its trick of considering slaves "contrabr last positive measure of legal enactment was the abolition of slavery in the District. But to the quotations. Colonel Gibson writes from his post, in General Buell's army in Tennessee, as follows: "In this region every one owns one or m
A brave officer wounded. We regret to learn that Capt. T. L. Rosser, of the 2d company Washington Artillery, was wounded in the skirmish at Mechanicsville on Saturday morning. He had command of his own and other artillery on the occasion. After fighting for some time, and while engaged in posting a piece to protect it from the enemy's fire, he was struck by the fragment of a shell, which tors the flesh from his right arm, causing a severs lacerated wound. His horse was also shot under him. About this time the order came for our force to fall back, and the artillery withdrew from the field in beautiful style, in the face of the fire of the enemy. In this engagement, it is perhaps unnecessary to add, the Washington Artillery maintained the high reputation it has won in many previous engagements. Capt. Rosser is now in the city at the house of Dr. Gibson, on Franklin street.
