The Daily Dispatch: November 18, 1861., [Electronic resource], The success of the naval expedition. (search)
e twenty vessels, some of them shoddy vessels, foisted on the Government by speculators and peculators, have perished or been disabled, the fleet has effected a successful landing, and the Union flag waves over Beaufort, and the whole island of Port Royal, sugers well for the naval campaign so suspiciously begun. The rumor that the disembarked forces were marching on Charleston, or that they have as yet moved beyond the limits of Port Royal, is highly improbable. It was no part of the progPort Royal, is highly improbable. It was no part of the programme, and it would be folly to make an advance either upon Charleston or Savannah with so small a force, though it is not impossible that a feint was made on Charleston by a portion of the fleet, in order to divert attention from the real object of attack, and to divide the fire and distract the forces of the enemy. The troops landed at Beaufort will fortify their position, and, having obtained reinforcements, will make it a starting point against the heart of the rebellion at another day.

Capture of Yankees, corn, &c. Centreville, Va., Nov. 17. --Major Martin, of the Natchez Cavalry, has captured the Captain, a Lieutenant, and 30 privates of the 38th New York regiment, within two miles of Upton's Hill. There were four of the enemy killed and several wounded. Maj. Martin sustained no loss. Five four- horse wagons, loaded with corn, were captured. Late Northern papers received here state that the Northern people appear crazy with excitement at the Yankee success at Port Royal, and it is probable that the next demonstration will be a fleet attack on the Evansport batteries.
