Morris Island (South Carolina, United States) (search for this): article 2
Letter from Charleston. [Correspondence of the Dispatch] Charleston, Sept. 17, 1863. There has been but little firing here for the last four or five days. Gen. Gillmore has been hard at work, since he got possession of Morris Island, erecting batteries bearing on Sumter, the Sullivan's Island forts and batteries, and the city. You may rest assured he will make the most of his recent advantages. He is an engineer of rare abilities, and the sooner we recognize this fact and act upon it the better. Meanwhile Gen. Beauregard and Gen. Gilmer are not idle. Their active brains are busy, and the Argus eyes and Briarian arms of the army under their command are ever at work. It is said that James Island, which lies between Morris Island and Charleston, and over which the enemy must pass if he would reach the city from his present base is impregnable. I hope the same is true of Sullivan's Island. On the main land there is no danger. The harbor is not yet lost to us, an

The possession of battery Wagner and battery Gregg, and the new works being thrown up by the enemy, will enable him to render the blockade more effective, and at the same time to dispense with a portion of his blockading fleet. This will be no great loss to us, however, except in regard to the importation of supplies on Gove

Gen Bragg (search for this): article 2
A few only remain — such as are unable to go. The Mercury and Courier offices have been removed up town, from whence they continue to fire red lot shot at the invader, as in former times. The hotels are kept open, and the "Charleston," where I am stopping, continues to furnish excellent "entertainment for man and beast, " as the old tavern sign-boards were wont to have it.--The Federal army may yet hoist its flag over Charleston, but it will be amidst heaps of ashes and blackened walls, and the charred and fleshless bones of her heroic children. The weather is rough outside to-day, and betokens the approach of an equinoctial gale. The monitors have taken the hint and disappeared. They have probably sought safer anchorage in the Stono, or some of the inlets below. We continue to fire upon the enemy's working parties, day and night, and have the satisfaction of knowing that our fire is not without effect. I go hence to Savannah, and thence to Gen'l Bragg's army. Sallust
