Dantel Mallory (search for this): article 1
nty, Va. for the subjoined account of the defeat of Col. Tyler's Federal Regiment by a portion of General Floyd's brigade! An engagement took place to-day (August) 26th, between some eight hundred of the enemy under Col. Tyler, and General Floyd's forces, at a place called the "Cross Lanes," near the junction of Meadow and Gauley rivers, some twenty miles above the month of Gauley river. Gen. Floyd had the misfortune a few days ago to lose a boat and four of his men, viz: Dantel Mallory of Grayson, and Hugh Scott, John Jones and George Bare, of Symths, who were drowned by the boat going down into the rapids below the ferry. The enemy supposed that he had gotten over only a portion of his force, and seized the opportunity while they were thus "cut off," as they thought, to march upon them; but they reckoned without their host, for Gen. Floyd had had a new boat but it and his whole brigade over before they got up. The two forces encamped about two miles apart on Sunday

The feeling in North Carolina.[from the Wilmington Journal, Saturday.] We regret to learn, by a passeest authority that the War Department is not responsible for the reverse in North Carolina.

Eleven of the enemy's vessels were engagee a signal which they under stood, to the effect that our men were out of ammunition but would be reinforced on Thursday, as they would have been. The rumors in Goldsboro' designate the individual by name, but we do not feel at liberty to do so. One thing is certain, the capture of the gallant and popular Major Andrews, of GoldsboGoldsboro', has roused that section to a mighty pitch of excitement. At Newbern serious apprehensions are entertained for the safety of property, as it is known that the notorious Butler, of "contraband" celebrity, is in command of the expedition.

Brunswick, Ga. (Georgia, United States) (search for this): article 1
A stitch in time saves nine, but we fear that there are not wanting those among the politicians of this State whose sectional prejudices are so large, and their souls so small that they would sooner see our seacoast towns burned down — Wilmington particularly — than not. Call no more troops from Virginia. Stop no more regiments. Give us the means and the coast people will take care of the coast themselves, and let their men in Virginia fight there. The militia of New Hanover and Brunswick will take notice that Colonel Fremont has issued orders for their immediate assembling, to repel a threatened invasion by the enemy. Hatteras batteries have fallen and upwards of 800 brave North Carolinians have been killed, wounded and taken prisoners. Let every man be ready.

ur forces were compelled to surrrender, and the whole garrison are now held as prisoners, save a few who escaped. Lt. Citizen says our men fought bravely until they were compelled to surrender, and the defeat to our arms is only to be attributed to the superiority of the fleet over our batteries. The ammunition gave out at Fort Clark on Wednesday, and the guns were spined and abandoned, but Fort Hatteras returned the fire of the Federals till 11 or after yesterday. Men of Eastern Carolina arouse! We have warned you heretofore, but many of you headed not. Now your property, your homes and your families are in danger! Come to your arms and drive the invaders from your soil. A little preparation might have saved this disaster, but now it is too late and we must make the most of it. Let the militia be called out to aid the regular forces, and if the Hessians dare advance, let us make them rue it. We can, we must. To arms! To arms! The feeling in North Carolina.[fr

Voade on Wednesday morning at eight o'clock, and kept up till eleven o'clock, A. M., on Thursday. Eleven of the enemy's vessels were engaged in the bombardment. Fort Clark was captured first, and Fort Hatteras at the time named above as that of the close of the cannonade.

certain, the capture of the gallant and popular Major Andrews, of Goldsboro', has roused that section to a mighty pitch of excitement. At Newbern serious apprehensions are entertained for the safety of property, as it is known that the notorious Butler, of "contraband" celebrity, is in command of the expedition. We again urge the completion of the necessary defensive works here, and the organization of all the force that can be brought into service. Why can't we have the works at Wyatt made and armed? How are our guns and ammunition at other points? The Journal further says: Colonel Fremont and General Gatlin must be sustained by the people. They are now operating here on means derived from the Safety Committee, not from Raleigh, to which however we must pay taxes. Thank God the Military Board is gone. Let Governor Clark do something to redeem the State from the disgrace inflicted upon her by the disaster — the shameful sacrifice of our men at Hatteras.
