The Daily Dispatch: December 4, 1863., [Electronic resource], Important Movements of the enemy on the Southern coast. (search)
he Savannah Republican says that it has been ascertained that great activity prevails among the enemy at Beaufort and Hilton Head. A large number of vessels are in Port Royal, and heavy accessions have been made within a few days to the troops on Hilton Head. On Friday afternoon the vessels were moving about with great activity between Hilton Head and Beaufort. The intentions of the enemy are of course unknown; but it is fair to presume that they meditate an early descent upon the Charleston and Savannah Railroad, if not an attack upon or demonstration against Savannah. We shall probably hear from them at some point in the course of a few days at farthest. It has recently been ascertained that the Yankees have pretty well abandoned the coast of Georgia. There are none on St. Simons, Cumberland, or Jekyll Islands, and very few, if any, on the Islands higher up the coast. They keep a gunboat in most of the inlets. Most of the pirates are probably congregated at Hilton Head.
