Ferguson (search for this): article 1
— camp cookery — soup — personal Items — drowned sailor — a patriotic young man — shooting at long Range — Charitable fund. [Special correspondence of the Dispatch.] Norfolk. Oct. 16, 1861. The flag of truce steamer Kahukee took down yesterday some forty Federal aliens.--She had also on board three English gentlemen who wished to leave the country. Among the aliens were a number of women--one of them being a Mrs. Morris, who had formerly been arrested at Manassas as a spy. Dr. Ferguson, a wounded prisoner taken at Bull Run was also allowed to leave. Capt. Milligan, the signal officer, publishes a notice that whenever a flag of truce steamer leaves for Old Point, it will be indicated by a white flag at headquarters. One was a float to the breeze some time yesterday. The question of a serviceable change in the rations and fare of the soldiers is beginning to be mooted.

the inspection laws of Virginia, are delighted to see him upon the streets again, after a desperate shake from the warrior's worst foe — protracted sickness. Mr. Parker was in the earlier brushes in Western Virginia, with his personal friend, General Wise; but undue exposure in the campaign brought on a severe attack of disease, which has nearly cost him his life. The services of Mr. P. in the blocking of Norfolk harbor, with the Yankee ships at the Gosport Navy-Yard, are well remembered. The dangerous condition of Gen. Wise is melancholy intelligence for his numerous friends and admirers in this vicinity. A part from his being the representative from Princess Anne in the Convention, and his high political distinctions, the chivalric spirit which he has shown in the war, and his attractive personal bearing towards those who know him, have endeared him to thousands of our people. It is to be hoped that his valuable life will be spared for many years of service to his country.
Wool (search for this): article 1
, states that Mrs. Margaret Carr applied for, and obtained from the War Department at Richmond, a passport for herself and family to go North. Her son, (Abraham Brown,) whose name was on the certificate, was very indignant when the fact was made known to him. He peremptorily refuses to leave the South, and has requested the editor to state that the pass was obtained without his knowledge or consent. His patriotism is worthy of commendation. The different Generals at Old Point, from General Wool down, have wasted a good deal of money, from time to time, in powder and ball experiments from the Rip Raps, and with long guns, at Sewell's Point. I would not like to foot their bill of waste for fifteen thousand dollars. Yesterday, the Federals were at it again, throwing shells in the same direction; but it proved a bootless business, as most of the missiles failed of their mark by something like a mile. One might as well "be a dog and bay the moon," as to practice futilities of this

"C'est la soupe que fait le soldar," is worthy of full experiment among our volunteers. Good soup can almost always be made with slight skill; but other cookery depends entirely on talent, time, place, and circumstance. The friends of Wm. H. Parker, Esq., our faithful and vigilant Inspector-General, under the inspection laws of Virginia, are delighted to see him upon the streets again, after a desperate shake from the warrior's worst foe — protracted sickness.
