LoC issue · American Stories revision 77e27fa6

Same LoC scan for 4 of 4 pages.

17 American Stories boxes lie inside another of its boxes (p. 2: #36 (3 boxes) and #69 (2 boxes) inside #27; p. 2: #41, #46, #61 and #67 inside #24; p. 2: #73 inside #81; p. 2: #77 inside #12; p. 3: #116 (3 boxes) inside #30; p. 3: #64 inside #41; p. 4: #104 inside #36; p. 4: #113 inside #28). Nothing in AS's data marks or explains it: its layout detection boxed the same print twice (a column and an item in it, say) and both were OCR'd and published as articles. We compare every AS article as published; where both copies fall inside one of our components, the shorter is set aside and counted once as text AS has twice, not as another article.

Scorecard

Each comparison starts from a snewpapers component. "=" means both systems drew the same article. Where they differ, a language model, shown only the text, was asked which is right, twice, with the two claims stated in each order.

Unsure: the verdict changed when the two claims were stated in the other order, or no valid answer came back. Neither: the model found both segmentations wrong. Page furniture: the text was a line or two that could be a title, section title or the like, which one system leaves out by design, so it decides nothing.

Over the 62 components of ours AS has text inside, the same text on both sides; words of 3 or more letters, a long s read as f allowed. Components where more of the text is real words: snewpapers 52 · AS 3 · the same 7. AS marked 8 boxes illegible over 8 of our components and read no text from them; snewpapers' text of those components is 96.4% real words.

How this was scored

Every comparison is anchored on a snewpapers component and the American Stories boxes inside it. Where those boxes belong to several AS articles (or several of our components lie inside one AS article), the model was shown the passage as the numbered pieces and asked whether it is one component, several or mixed, twice, with the two beliefs stated, unattributed, in each order. A verdict that changed with the order is unstable and counts for neither side. AS text inside none of our components was asked whether it is advertisements, terms or page furniture, which snewpapers leaves out on purpose. Where AS attaches text outside one of our components (text of an AS article our component otherwise has), the model was shown our component's text and the attached text and asked whether the text belongs to the component, twice, the two beliefs stated in each order: "separate" means snewpapers is right, "belongs" American Stories. Where two AS articles inside one of our components hold the same text (the shorter sharing at least 50% of its 4-word phrases with the longer), the longer is kept and the text counted as duplicated by American Stories; so is attached text another AS article also holds. Where American Stories has a line or two of our component (at most 12 words and 5% of its area) in another AS article while one article holds the rest, the line is no split: the model was shown the rest of the AS text and the line and asked whether the line belongs to the component, both ways; "belongs" means snewpapers is right and judges only the article holding the line wrong (lines in another AS article). One AS article counts as a match only when the two cover each other, both ways: AS text covers at least 90% of our component, and our component at least 90% of that AS article's text. Coverage is measured line by line down each column (how much of its height the other side's boxes span, so a centred headline narrower than its column still counts). Under 90% the first way, the component is partly captured by AS (the rest in no AS box, or marked illegible): not asked, an AS error by the geometry, its AS article judged wrong (AS articles missing part of ours). Under 90% the second way, the AS article runs on beyond our component into other text: that text is asked about as text attached outside, and "separate" judges the AS article wrong (AS articles running on into other items). Decisions are the unit counted above; the last table counts what they judged: an as_split decided "one" is one decision and every AS article inside our component judged wrong, an N ours : 1 AS decided "several" one decision and each of our N components judged right (an article or component judged both ways by different decisions counts in both rows). AS errors count what the decisions for snewpapers found American Stories got wrong, next to those decisions: an N ours : 1 AS is N errors, the N items of ours AS failed to separate (items AS merged), a 1 ours : N AS N errors, the N AS fragment articles. A component inside an N ours : 1 AS (its AS text a slice of the merged article) is counted in the components table by that decision's outcome. A component running over pages is one comparison across them (American Stories never links an article across pages): its AS articles on all its pages, labelled by page, are the pieces asked about, once; it counts once among our components, and a decision for snewpapers judges every one of those AS articles wrong, each a fragment article.

How to read this

Each group is the same crop of the scan twice: snewpapers' boxes on the left, American Stories' on the right. The group's own boxes are outlined in red. Groups are in page position order (column by column), not reading order. A component can appear twice: in its own case and in an N ours : 1 AS group. Text of a component's own AS articles printed outside the component is left out of the comparison and shown beneath the group as "American Stories also attaches: «…» (outside this component)".

1:1 matchthe AS text inside our component (boxes, or the slices of boxes it overlaps) all belongs to one AS article (or to several that duplicate one another: American Stories duplicated the text)

TWO SORTS OF DEMOCRATS.

No man is better acquainted with all the peculiar phases of what has heretofore passed current under the general term "Democracy," than Col. John W. Forney. As an expert his opinion is of value; and he thus describes, illustrates and defines the two classes of democrats now existing at the North:

"There are two classes of democrats in the North, and their distinctive principles are becoming daily more and more manifest—those represented by Dickinson, Meagher, and Andrew Johnson, and those controlled by such men as Vallandingham and Wm. B. Reed. The first class are for the war, for the best means of putting down the rebellion, for the restoration of the Union. They are willing to confide in the administration—they are in favor of taxation—they consider no sacrifice of blood or treasure too great to attain these results. To them a party organization is a name—a thing of the past—a temporary convenience which gave way to a national necessity. They are for the country at all times and under all contingencies. The second class were against the Government in the beginning and are against the Government now. Their sympathies were always with the men of the South. In the old times of peace they were the slaves of the Southern aristocracy—they followed them into conventions, they voted with them in Congress. There was no legislative proposition too offensive for them to endorse, and whenever northern humiliation, or an outrage on northern sentiment was intended, the southern statesmen found their most willing implements among these people. When the rebellion broke out they defended its leaders and misrepresented its motives and clamored about coercion and compromise, while Beauregard was building batteries on Charleston bay. When Fort Sumter fell, they were silent. During the dark hours succeeding Bull Run, they were silent. In times of victory, they showed no joy. In times of defeat they exhibited exultation. They clamored for an English war, and denounced the administration for refusing to precipitate an English war. They are enemies of the country as truly as Davis or Beauregard.

They are striving to show their enmity now. They desire to obtain control of the democratic organization, that they may use it and the masses it represents for their treasonable purposes. This fact is daily becoming more and more apparent, and the duty of meeting the danger is daily becoming more and more important. That duty is the political union of all men for the sake of the Union, and we long for its speedy consummation."

A good Methodist minister, who lived on a very small salary, was greatly troubled at one time to get his quarterly installment. He had called a number of times, but had each time been put off with some excuse. At length he went to his steward, and told him he must have his money, for his family were suffering for the necessaries of life. "Money!" replied the steward, "you preach for money! I thought you," replied the minister, "I can't eat souls, and if I could, it would take a thousand such as yours to make a decent meal."

The Phœnix to-day contains a revised roll of the officers and privates of the 8th Regiment, including the names of those recruits added since the companies arrived in camp. The list is believed to be very nearly perfect. It will be seen that most of the companies have an overplus of men, and if the full number are not mustered in, the most inefficient will be "weeded out" until the companies are reduced to the maximum standard of 101 men, including officers, each.

The glorious victory achieved by our arms in the capture of Fort Donelson and the bagging of 15,000 rebels, following so closely upon the heels of our recent great successes at Fort Henry, Roanoke Island and Mill Spring, has touched a chord in every heart that beats in unison with "the music of the Union," and excited a thrill of exultation that vibrates through every loyal State in notes of joy and praise. From every State, from every city and almost from every town we have reports of intense excitement, unbounded enthusiasm and indescribable joy. Guns are fired, bells are rung, and the people are indulging in every conceivable manifestation of joy. Our past defeats are atoned for, our past delays are now satisfactorily explained, and no one from the least informed citizen up to Senator Fessenden is now inclined to criticise the general management of the war. All are ready to concede that those to whom the war power is intrusted have understood their business and made the most of their opportunities.

But mingling with the joyous notes of loyal hearts there comes to our ears strangely discordant sounds. From all rebeldom we hear lamentations and groans that may well represent the wail of the lost. Their boasted armies are sleeping the sleep that knows no waking, are prisoners in the hands of those whom they hate with only a brother's hatred, or are flying, disorganized, demoralized fugitives; their strongholds within which they defied the strength of the Union army have disappeared as by a magician's wand, only to re-appear in the hands of their conquerors. The "impassable barriers" they had set up on the confines of their late dominion for the protection of its vital parts, have been suddenly removed, leaving scarcely an obstacle in the way of not only "breaking the back" but of piercing the heart of the rebellion.

For these reasons we are jubilant; and not for these alone. The Union men of the South who, at the peril of their property, their safety and of even their lives, have nobly stood up for the dear old flag of their country, amid discouragements that have appalled all but the stoutest hearts, now find the day of their deliverance at hand. To them these victories are the glad tidings of great joy. It is a partial payment for the indignities and outrages they have suffered at the hands of those who were once their neighbors and kinsmen, but who are now their deadliest foes. The day of their restoration is at hand. Glory, Hallelujah!

THE GREAT VICTORIES.

The report on our last week's paper of the victory of Gen. Burnside at Roanoke Island, is fully verified by subsequent and official information, the details of which are given elsewhere. Roanoke Island is a place of great importance. It occupies a position in and fully commands the channel connecting Pamlico with Albemarle Sounds, through which alone the latter can be reached by the sea. In its capture we not only command all the North Carolina sea coast, but all the inland waters of that great State with a portion of those of Virginia. We can now pass up to the rear of Norfolk, past Elizabeth City which is in our possession, or proceed up the Roanoke river to Weldon, where the railroads to Richmond, Norfolk and the South connect, the control of which is of the highest importance, and has been supposed to be a leading object of the expedition. In short this victory gives us the control of the rebellious portion of North Carolina.

The victory at Forts Henry and Donelson virtually clear Kentucky of the rebels, and leave Tennessee exposed to the incursion of our armies. It is true that Columbus yet holds out, but with all the surrounding country in our hands and our troops menacing them in the rear, with their means of communication and supplies cut off, the rebels there cannot hold out long nor do us any material damage. The Tennessee River which rises in Virginia, flows through Eastern Tennessee into Alabama, across that state again through Western Tennessee and Kentucky into the Ohio, is open to our boats to Florence, Ala., the head of inland navigation. The capture of Fort Donelson gives us a strong hold on the Cumberland river, which rises in Eastern Kentucky, flows southwest into Tennessee where it sweeps around to a nearly northerly course and, passing through Kentucky, empties into the Ohio 12 miles east of the mouth of the Tennessee and 60 miles above Cairo. The battle at Mill Spring gave us command of all that part of the river above the north line of Tennessee; the capture of Fort Donelson gives us possession of the river up to Clarksville, over thirty miles into Tennessee towards Nashville. This victory has resulted in the evacuation of Bowling Green and the timely retreat of the rebels from central Kentucky. Furthermore it opens the way for yet more decisive movements.

EXCHANGE OF PRISONERS.—The rebel authorities have refused to allow commissioners Fish and Ames to pass within their lines, to look after the comfort of our prisoners. They, however, succeeded in negotiating a general exchange of prisoners on liberal terms. An equal exchange was agreed on, but the confederates had three hundred more prisoners than we, and with commendable magnanimity, they proposed to release those also on parole, if our government would agree to release three hundred of their men that may next fall into our hands. It is understood they will continue to release prisoners in this way, as they take them, expecting that we shall reciprocate. The confederates came to this determination before the battle at Roanoke Island and Fort Donelson put the balance of prisoners in our favor, and their magnanimity is thus a challenge to the same generosity on our part. Four hundred of our prisoners are expected to leave Richmond in a day or two, in exchange for an equal number of confederates lately sent back. Those who have friends in the hands of the enemy will rejoice in the prospect of their speedy return.

EIGHTH REGIMENT.

The 8th Regiment Vermont Volunteers was reviewed by the Governor, on Tuesday, and immediately inspected by Adjutant and Inspector General Washburn. The inspection was thorough and the men were found to be very thoroughly armed and equipped for their campaign.

Capt. John W. Jones, U. S. A., arrived in town Tuesday afternoon, and immediately commenced mustering in the regiment, completing the same Wednesday morning. He will immediately pay the expenses for recruiting the regiment, and the non commissioned officers and privates will receive their $7 per month from the State. The remaining portion of their wages will probably be paid in a few days.

Both the 7th and 8th Regiments will be placed in Gen. Phelps' Brigade. They are liable to leave on very short notice, just as soon as vessels are ready for their embarkation. Their immediate destination is Ship Island.

OUR GALLANT NAVY.—The navy of the United States has always been so small as to excite the mirth of European powers, albeit it caused England some serious thoughts in the war of 1812-15. Since the breaking out of the rebellion it has been materially increased, but it has called forth none but derisive remarks from European papers and their correspondents. Yet our navy, small as it is, has really done wonders since the war for the Union commenced in earnest. It has opened Port Royal, captured Fort Henry, and materially assisted in the reduction of the enemy's works at Roanoke Island and Fort Donelson. In these engagements it has performed prodigies of valor against formidable land batteries. Hurrah for our Navy.

HIS RULING PASSION.—Many men are noted all through their lives and even in their dying hours for consistency. Their ruling passion is always manifested even until they have passed the borders of the grave. It will probably be so with Floyd. His propensity is to steal, no matter what so long as he can steal. When in the cabinet he stole every thing he could lay hands on, and now when nothing else is left for him at Fort Donelson, why, he steals away.— Stealing is his "fort."

At the recent term of the Supreme Court in Rutland County, thirteen unhappy couples were released from galling matrimonial bonds. Eight of the libelants were husbands and five were wives. It ceases to be a matter of wonder that there is not a "friend of virtue" in Rutland.

At a meeting of the Directors of the State Agricultural Society at Bellows Falls, last week, Edwin Hammond of Middlebury was elected President, in place of Henry Baxter who declined the office. It was resolved to hold a Wool Grower's Convention at Rutland on the afternoon of the Fair, in September next.

Mr. Oliver Carter of Bradford, was found injured and insensible in his woodlot in that town, on Saturday the 8th inst. He went after a load of wood and it is supposed that in falling a tree he was struck and fatally injured. He was taken home but remained insensible until he died Monday evening. His age was 45 years.

The Orange County officers are great favorites at home. Among the presentations made to their friends in the 8th Regiment, Assistant Surgeon, Dr. Gillett, has received a beautiful sword from his fellow citizens of Corinth. He will have cause to remember the Corinthians and occasionally send them an Epistle.

The 7th Regiment Vermont Volunteers was mustered into the service of the United States, on Wednesday of last week, at Rutland. The regiment was also paid in full up to the date of muster.

Levi Vincent of Fayston, committed suicide on Wednesday of last week by cutting his throat with a razor. He was sick and confined to his bed, but during the absence of his wife he managed to "shuffle off the mortal coil."

The Middlebury Register says that several cases of small pox have appeared in Addison in the county of Addison.

VT. & MASS. RAILROAD.—At the annual meeting of the Stockholders of the Vermont & Massachusetts Railroad, at Boston on Wednesday of last week, a spirited flare-up occurred which resulted in a revolution in the management. Mr. John J. Swift, one of the old board of directors, said that he should decline serving with the present Board of Directors if it was re-chosen; that the whole course of the board had been illegal, and that Mr. Cheever was only President de facto and not de jure. There was according to law no treasurer of the Corporation, and the company had violated both the General Statutes of the Commonwealth and their own by-laws. Mr. Cheever made an explanation of the subject, and said that Mr. Swift was a member of the Board, and if there was fault he was a participant.

On motion of Mr. E. H. Derby, the tenth article of the by-laws of the corporation was amended so as to reduce the amount of bonds required of the Treasurer from $50,000 to $15,000. It appears that for two years the Treasurer has not given any bonds, and this, together with the fact that the vacancy caused on the Board of Directors by the death of Mr. Whittemore was never filled, thus leaving the corporation with one less Director than the law requires, was the ground on which Mr. Swift accused the Board of Directors of having acted in violation of the General Statutes and the by-laws of the company.

The committee to collect votes for Directors reported as follows:

Whole number of votes, 7933. Necessary to a choice, 3957. * John J. Swift of Boston had 7900. William B. Washburn of Greenfield, 5362. Francis B. Fay of Boston, 5226. L. G. Mead, of Brattleboro, 5165. Robert Hale of Boston, 4927. * James Cheever of Boston, 3039. Otis T. Ruggles of Fitchburg, 2698. * Joseph Goodhue of Brattleboro, 2678. * D. N. Carpenter of Greenfield. 2543.

And the five first named were declared elected. Those with an asterisk (*) prefixed to their names were members of the old board.

Robert Hale was formerly from Caledonia County, and was at one time Superintendent of the Connecticut and Passumpsic Rivers Railroad.

When the result was declared Mr. Cheever warned the stockholders to attend all the meetings, and beware of the one man power, for there was a person who wanted to rule every body.

CONTRIBUTIONS FOR SOLDIERS.—On the 4th page of to-day's paper may be found a list of boxes and packages of contributions for the aid of our Vermont Soldiers, forwarded by Quartermaster General Davis in the month of December. It will be seen that in a great many cases there are no means of determining from what town these packages came, and in some instances there are no directions as to their particular destination. It is proper to remark that with every box or by mail a letter should be sent giving the name of the town from which the box is sent, an invoice of its contents and its particular destination. All these conditions, except the invoice, should be distinctly marked on every box.

COUNTY COMMISSIONER.—Mr. Editor: Permit me to suggest the name of Rodney B. Field, Esq., of Guilford, for the office of County Commissioner at the coming election. Mr. Field is a gentleman well qualified by education and sound judgment for the discharge, faithfully and fearlessly of his duties. H.

We cheerfully give place to the communication of our correspondent. But we have heretofore expressed our intention to support the Hon. Ira Goodhue of Westminster for the office of County Commissioner, and we now see no reason for a change. In conversation with many of the most prominent men of this county we have learned what we before believed was the fact, that Judge Goodhue has, since he has held the office, discharged its duties to the general satisfaction of the people, and not one of these men will fail of using their best exertions to secure his re-election.

Q. K. PHILANDER DOSTICKS, P. B., is to Lecture in the Town Hall this (Thursday) evening. Subject: "The Humorous Phases of the War." We take great pleasure in making this announcement as Doesticks is so well known to our readers. We have from time to time furnished samples of his pungent satire and biting sarcasm, so that Doesticks and "A Damphool, Esq.," are to our readers veritable characters. As several of the relatives of the last named individual live in this vicinity Doesticks will not be accompanied here with his whilom acquaintance. Doesticks, alias Mortimer Thompson, has by personal intercourse and examination rendered himself familiar with many scenes and events connected with the war and its management that do not find their way into the columns of a newspaper, and in hearing these depicted by a scholar and a wit our friends will be sure of a very palatable entertainment. Let all go and hear Doesticks.

The Unitarian Parish passed last Sunday, unanimously, some resolutions highly complimentary to Rev. Mr. Williams, their late Pastor, on the occasion of his leaving to become Chaplain of the 8th Regiment. The last resolution was, in effect that of the New York church which voted their pastor "leave of absence so long as Providence had use for him in the army, but when Providence had done with him they wished him to come back to them."

INTEREST PAID.—The Secretary of the Treasury advertises in our columns that the interest on the 7.3 Treasury notes due February 19th, will be paid in coin at the offices of the Assistant Treasurers in New York and Boston. We are also informed that the coupons will be cashed at either of the Banks in this village, which will be a convenience to most of the holders of said notes in this vicinity.

APPOINTMENT.—We learn that Capt. Jonas P. Holliday, of the 2nd United States Cavalry, has been appointed and commissioned Colonel of the 1st Vermont Cavalry Regiment, in place of Col. L. B. Platt resigned. Col. Holliday is a graduate of West Point and a cavalry officer of great experience and merit. He was recommended for this place by Gen. Stoneman, Chief of Cavalry in the U. S. Army, by other prominent army officers, and by Senator Foot and Col. Platt. We are heartily glad that this regiment, which contains as good material as any recruited since the commencement of the war, is now to be properly commissioned and disciplined. Col. Holliday has obtained leave of absence from the War department to enable him to assume the duties of his new command.

WHITINGHAM.—A Mrs. Stockwell, between 80 and 90 years of age, who was boarded by the town, with her husband, in a private family, was burned to death a few days since by her clothes catching fire from a stove which she was passing. Her husband was in the room with her, but before he could obtain help her clothes were burned off of her. She lived about twelve hours. Her husband, an old man about a hundred years old, was burned considerably by endeavoring to extinguish the flames.

The portable houses purchased by Gov. Holbrook for the use of the 8th Regiment, will be bought by government and taken to Ship Island for the use of our troops. They can be used for quarters and hospitals or for the quartermaster and commissary departments as may be desirable. For almost any such purpose they are invaluable, and at their first cost can be put up cheaper than any other quarters possessing equal convenience and accommodations.

"THE WHOLE HOG."—Lorenzo Brown of Vernon slaughtered a hog a few days since, that weighed 1000 pounds the 1st of January, and which dressed 836 pounds. The hog was sold to Mr. Amos W. Ross of Northfield, Mass., who instead of having it dressed in the usual way had it skinned, the skin to be stuffed and kept for exhibition. The hide weighed 95 pounds and one of the hams weighed 114 pounds. The hog was a cross of the Norfolk and Mackay breeds.

COUNTY COMMISSIONER.—Mr. Editor: Permit me to suggest the name of Rodney B. Field, Esq., of Guilford, for the office of County Commissioner at the coming election. Mr. Field is a gentleman well qualified by education and sound judgment for the discharge, faithfully and fearlessly of his duties. H.

We cheerfully give place to the communication of our correspondent. But we have heretofore expressed our intention to support the Hon. Ira Goodhue of Westminster for the office of County Commissioner, and we now see no reason for a change. In conversation with many of the most prominent men of this county we have learned what we before believed was the fact, that Judge Goodhue has, since he has held the office, discharged its duties to the general satisfaction of the people, and not one of these men will fail of using their best exertions to secure his re-election.

Q. K. PHILANDER DOSTICKS, P. B., is to Lecture in the Town Hall this (Thursday) evening. Subject: "The Humorous Phases of the War." We take great pleasure in making this announcement as Doesticks is so well known to our readers. We have from time to time furnished samples of his pungent satire and biting sarcasm, so that Doesticks and "A Damphool, Esq.," are to our readers veritable characters. As several of the relatives of the last named individual live in this vicinity Doesticks will not be accompanied here with his whilom acquaintance. Doesticks, alias Mortimer Thompson, has by personal intercourse and examination rendered himself familiar with many scenes and events connected with the war and its management that do not find their way into the columns of a newspaper, and in hearing these depicted by a scholar and a wit our friends will be sure of a very palatable entertainment. Let all go and hear Doesticks.

The Unitarian Parish passed last Sunday, unanimously, some resolutions highly complimentary to Rev. Mr. Williams, their late Pastor, on the occasion of his leaving to become Chaplain of the 8th Regiment. The last resolution was, in effect that of the New York church which voted their pastor "leave of absence so long as Providence had use for him in the army, but when Providence had done with him they wished him to come back to them."

He sometimes takes one name and sometimes another. Like the one possessed with devils, "His name is legion." But he generally puts himself off as a great friend of mine, and his father is represented as a deacon in our church, or the Superintendent of our Sabbath School. Sometimes he has lost his money in one way, and sometimes in another. Sometimes he has a broken arm, and sometimes he is convalescent from a fever; but has been detained till his money is exhausted. If he can borrow $3 or $5 just to carry him home, he will return the money the very next mail after he arrives at home. This is about the amount of his story, as I have received letters from several brethren in Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Vermont, by way of inquiry concerning him and his whereabouts; and it is time to stop this abuse of men whose office it is to show kindness. Will the editors of newspapers copy this notice extensively; and thus oblige many whose benevolence has been outraged by this impostor?

To the Clergy of New England:—You are hereby warned against a gentlemanly scamp of light complexion, (when his hair and whiskers are not colored,) who has already humbugged myself and many of my brethren by raising small sums of money under false pretences. He sometimes takes one name and sometimes another. Like the one possessed with devils, "His name is legion." But he generally puts himself off as a great friend of mine, and his father is represented as a deacon in our church, or the Superintendent of our Sabbath School. Sometimes he has lost his money in one way, and sometimes in another. Sometimes he has a broken arm, and sometimes he is convalescent from a fever; but has been detained till his money is exhausted. If he can borrow $3 or $5 just to carry him home, he will return the money the very next mail after he arrives at home. This is about the amount of his story, as I have received letters from several brethren in Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Vermont, by way of inquiry concerning him and his whereabouts; and it is time to stop this abuse of men whose office it is to show kindness. Will the editors of newspapers copy this notice extensively; and thus oblige many whose benevolence has been outraged by this impostor?

Respectfully, &c.,

THE ATTACK ON FORT DONELSON. THE UPPER FORT CAPTURED.

Three Days Hard Fighting and the Federal Gunboat Fleet Disabled.

HEAVY LOSS ON BOTH SIDES.

The attack on Fort Donelson, which commenced Thursday morning, was followed up on Friday and Saturday with great gallantry. The rebels made a most determined resistance, and the fight was desperate. Flag officer Foote brought up his fleet of gunboats Friday afternoon, and after driving the rebels from their river batteries, was forced to retire, two of his gunboats being completely disabled, and the rest badly damaged. The upper fort was taken by the land forces Saturday afternoon, and the stars and stripes raised over it. It was reported at St. Louis, on Saturday, that the fort was captured, and there was great rejoicing, and the news was sent over the country. But later dispatches do not confirm the report, which seems to have originated in the capture of the upper fort or redoubt. The redoubt commands the fort, however, and the attack was to be renewed Sunday, and the capture of the whole fort was considered certain. The following accounts of the fight have been received:

Dispatches received at Gen. Halleck's headquarters, at St. Louis, says that all the gunboats were pretty effectually disabled, except one. Commodore Foote was wounded twice, but not fatally. The upper redoubt, taken by our troops, commands Fort Donelson, and Gen. Grant telegraphs that he would be able to capture the fort on Sunday.

CAPTURE OF THE UPPER FORT.

A dispatch from Cairo says the fight commenced on Thursday, and Friday and Saturday the contest was desperate. The Illinois 18th regiment suffered severely, and the Iowa 7th sustained considerable loss. Swartz's battery was taken by the enemy, but was recaptured by our men. Two colonels were wounded and two killed. The loss is heavy on both sides. The upper fort was taken at 4 o'clock on Saturday. The Union flag is now floating over it. Our troops behaved with great gallantry.

A gentleman who left Fort Donelson Saturday afternoon at 3 o'clock, and reached Cairo Sunday noon, says the fight had been going on all day Saturday. The right wing of the enemy's fortifications were taken, and the stars and stripes were floating over them. The forces were breast to breast, and the fight was to be renewed.

THE ATTACK BY THE GUNBOATS.

Commander Foote reached Cairo at 12 o'clock, Saturday night, on board the gunboat Conestoga. He stormed Fort Donelson Friday afternoon with the gunboats St. Louis, Louisville, Pittsburg, Carondelet, Tyler and Conestoga, and after fighting a little over an hour, retired. There were 54 killed and wounded, our gunboat pilots, Tyler and Hilton of St. Louis, being among the latter. Commander Foote, while standing on the pilot house of the St. Louis, his flag ship, was slightly wounded. The St. Louis was hit 61 times, and two gunboats were disabled. The Tyler and Conestoga remained out of range of the enemy's guns. The line of battle was as follows: The St. Louis on the right, next the Louisville, then the Pittsburg, and the Carondelet on the left. The enemy's firing was very accurate. They had 3 batteries, one near the water, one 59 feet above the second. The upper one mounted four 18-pounders, and was held in reserve until our boats got within 400 yards of the fort. Our fire was directed principally at the water battery. One of the enemy's guns burst, and a number were dismounted. The enemy could be seen carrying dead out of their trenches. A gun on the Carondelet burst, killing 6 men. The rudder of the Pittsburg was shot away.

OFFICIAL DISPATCH OF COMMANDER FOOTE.

The following dispatch was received at the navy department, Washington, Sunday morning, from Flag Officer Foote:—

U. S. FLAG SHIP ST. LOUIS, Near Fort Donelson, February 15th.

To Hon. Gideon Welles, secretary of the navy:

I made an attack on Fort Donelson yesterday, at 3 o'clock p. m., with 4 iron clad gunboats and 2 wooden ones, and after an hour and a quarter severe fighting the latter part of the day, within less than four hundred yards of the fort, the wheel of this vessel and the tiller of the Louisville were both shot away, rendering the two boats unmanageable. They then drifted down the river. The two remaining boats were greatly damaged between wind and water. This vessel alone received 59 shots, and the others about half that number each. There were 54 killed and wounded in this attack, which we have reason to suppose would in 15 minutes more, could the action have been continued, have resulted in the capture of the fort bearing upon us, as the enemy was then running from his batteries. When the two gunboats helplessly drifted down the river from disabled steering apparatus, in the strong current, the fleeing enemy returned to the river battery guns, from which they had been driven, and again hotly poured fire upon us. The enemy must have brought over twenty guns to bear upon our boats from the water battery and the main fort on the hill, while we could only return the fire with twelve boat guns from the four boats. One rifled gun aboard the Carondelet burst during the action. The officers and men in this hotly contested but unequal fight, behaved with the greatest gallantry and determination, all deploring the accident which rendered two of our gunboats suddenly helpless in the narrow river and swift current. On consultation with Gen. Grant and my own officers, as my services here, until we can repair damages by bringing up a competent force from Cairo to attack the fort, are much less required than they are at Cairo, I have concluded to proceed to that place. I have sent the Tyler to the Tennessee river to render the railroad bridge impassable. (Signed,) A. H. Foote, flag officer commanding the naval forces of the western division.

DISPATCHES RECEIVED AT WASHINGTON.

The dispatch Sunday evening announcing a victory at Fort Donelson, has occasioned intense joy at Washington, but up to 10 o'clock at night no official dispatches had been received in confirmation of the report, further than that the upper fort had been captured by the land forces.

On Saturday a dispatch reached the general-in-chief at Washington, from Gen. Halleck at St. Louis, announcing the investment of Fort Donelson with a force of 50,000 men and the noble fleet of Commodore Foote, and anticipating its speedy reduction. Gen. Halleck says that Generals Floyd and Buckner are in the fort with a force of 15,000 men, and he is evidently of the opinion that his arrangements to cut them off from reinforcements will surely be successful.

ANOTHER GLORIOUS VICTORY. FORT DONELSON CAPTURED.

Two Rebel Generals and Fifteen Thousand Prisoners Taken. ESCAPE OF FLOYD WITH FIVE THOUSAND MEN. HEAVY LOSS ON BOTH SIDES.

Fort Donelson surrendered to the federal troops under Gen Grant on Sunday, at nine o'clock. The attack, which commenced Thursday morning, was continued till this time with the most determined bravery, and most determinedly opposed. But the capture of the upper redoubt by our forces on Saturday gave us the command of the other rebel works, and the enemy had no course left but to surrender. Two rebel generals, Buckner and Johnson, are captured, with fifteen thousand prisoners, and an immense amount of military stores. The arch traitor, Floyd, managed to escape Saturday night with five thousand men, and he has thus once more escaped the hangman. The rebels in the fort denounce him as a black hearted traitor and coward, which has long been his character among loyal men. It is the greatest and most hardly contested victory of the war and our success is complete.

HOW THE FORT WAS TAKEN

A special dispatch to the Chicago Times says Fort Donelson surrendered at daylight Sunday morning, unconditionally. We have Generals Buckner, Johnston and Bushrod: also 15,000 prisoners and 3000 horses. Generals Pillow and Floyd, with their Brigade, ran away on steamers, without letting Buckner know of their intentions. Gen Smith led the charge on the lower end of the works, and was first inside the fortifications. The Fort Henry runaways were bagged here. The prisoners are loading on the steamers for Cairo. Our loss is heavy, probably four hundred killed and 800 wounded. We lost a large percentage of officers, among them Lieut. Colonels Erwin, 20th Illinois, White of the 31st and Smith of the 18th. Colonels John A. Logan, Sawyer and Ransom were wounded. Major Post of the 8th Illinois with 200 privates are prisoners and have gone to Nashville, having been taken the night before the surrender. The enemy's loss is heavy, but not so large as ours, as they fought behind entrenchments. We should have taken them by storming Saturday, if our ammunition had not given out in the night. McClernand's division, composed of Oglesby's, Wallace's, and McArthur's brigades, suffered terribly. They were composed of the 8th, 9th, 11th, 18th, 20th, 29th, 30th, 31st, 45th, 49th, and 59th Illinois regiments. Gen. Lew Wallace, with the 11th Indiana and 8th Missouri and some Ohio regiments, participated. Taylor's, Willard's, McAllister's, Swartz's, and Decesse's batteries, were in the fight from the commencement. The enemy turned our right for half an hour, but our lost ground was more than regained. Laumann's brigade of Smith's division, was first in the lower end of the enemy's work, which was done by a bayonet charge. As nine-tenths of the rebels were pitted against our right, our forces on the right were ready all Saturday night to recommence the attack. On Sunday morning they were met on their approach by a white flag, Buckner having sent, early in the morning, a dispatch to Gen. Grant surrendering. The works extend some five miles on the outside. The rebels lose 48 field pieces, 17 heavy guns, and 20,000 stand of arms, besides a large quantity of commissary stores. The rebel troops are completely demoralized, and have no confidence in their leaders, as they charge Pillow and Floyd with deserting them. Our troops from the moment of the investment of the fort on Wednesday, lay on their arms night and day, half the time without provision, all the time without tents, and a portion of the time in a heavy storm of rain and snow.

THE KILLED AND WOUNDED

The rebels are known to have 30,000 troops, 15,000 of whom are prisoners. Five thousand escaped, and the balance are reported killed and wounded, and otherwise disabled. Our loss is not stated, but the slaughter of our ranks is mentioned as terribly severe.

The casualties on the gunboats are as follows: On the St. Louis, three killed and two wounded, including Lieut. Kendall; on the Louisville, five sailors killed, four slightly and two severely wounded, the latter having both arms shot off; on the Carondelet, four killed, six badly and two severely wounded, including the pilot; on the Pittsburgh, two wounded.

All the wounded on both sides, at Fort Donelson, will be brought to St. Louis and placed in the hospitals. A dozen or more surgeons, with a corps of hospital nurses, left Monday afternoon for the battle-field to assist in their transportation.

A private message to the sanitary commission from Cairo, received at Chicago, Monday evening, says there are 300 federal troops killed, 600 wounded and 100 missing at Fort Donelson. A large number of our wounded have been sent to the hospital at Paducah and Cairo.

OFFICIAL FROM COMMANDER FOOTE.

The following official dispatch was received at Washington Monday afternoon:

CAIRO, February, 17th. To HON. GIDEON WELLES:—The Carondelet, just arrived from Fort Donelson, brings information of the capture of that fort by our land forces, yesterday morning, with 15,000 prisoners, including Generals Buckner and Johnston. The loss is heavy on both sides. Floyd escaped with 5000 men during the night. I go up with the gunboats as soon as possible and shall proceed to Clarksville with 8 mortar boats on the way, with which I hope to attack Clarksville. My foot is painful but not dangerous. The army has behaved gloriously. I shall be able to take but two iron clad gunboats, as the others are disabled. The trophies are immense, and particulars will soon be given. A. H. Foote, Flag Officer.

ANOTHER OFFICIAL DISPATCH.

CAIRO, February 17th. To Major General McClellan:—The Union flag floats over Fort Donelson. The Carondelet, Capt Walker, brings the glorious intelligence. The fort was surrendered at 9 o'clock Sunday morning. Generals A. Sidney Johnston and Buckner, 15,000 prisoners and a large amount of material of war are the trophies of the victory. Loss heavy on both sides. Floyd, the thief, stole away during the night previous with five thousand men, and is denounced by the rebels as a traitor. I am happy to inform you that flag officer Foote, though suffering with his foot, with the noble characteristic of our navy, notwithstanding his disability, will take up immediately two gunboats and with the eight mortar boats which he will overtake, will make an immediate attack on Clarksville, if the state of the weather will permit. We are now firing a national salute from Fort Cairo, Gen Grant's late post, in honor of the glorious achievement.

Geo. W. Cullum, brigadier general of volunteers and U. S. A. and chief of the staff of Engineers.

It is the greatest and most hardly contested victory of the war and our success is complete.

HOW THE FORT WAS TAKEN

A special dispatch to the Chicago Times says Fort Donelson surrendered at daylight Sunday morning, unconditionally. We have Generals Buckner, Johnston and Bushrod: also 15,000 prisoners and 3000 horses. Generals Pillow and Floyd, with their Brigade, ran away on steamers, without letting Buckner know of their intentions. Gen Smith led the charge on the lower end of the works, and was first inside the fortifications. The Fort Henry runaways were bagged here. The prisoners are loading on the steamers for Cairo. Our loss is heavy, probably four hundred killed and 800 wounded. We lost a large percentage of officers, among them Lieut. Colonels Erwin, 20th Illinois, White of the 31st and Smith of the 18th. Colonels John A. Logan, Sawyer and Ransom were wounded. Major Post of the 8th Illinois with 200 privates are prisoners and have gone to Nashville, having been taken the night before the surrender. The enemy's loss is heavy, but not so large as ours, as they fought behind entrenchments. We should have taken them by storming Saturday, if our ammunition had not given out in the night. McClernand's division, composed of Oglesby's, Wallace's, and McArthur's brigades, suffered terribly. They were composed of the 8th, 9th, 11th, 18th, 20th, 29th, 30th, 31st, 45th, 49th, and 59th Illinois regiments. Gen. Lew Wallace, with the 11th Indiana and 8th Missouri and some Ohio regiments, participated. Taylor's, Willard's, McAllister's, Swartz's, and Decesse's batteries, were in the fight from the commencement. The enemy turned our right for half an hour, but our lost ground was more than regained. Laumann's brigade of Smith's division, was first in the lower end of the enemy's work, which was done by a bayonet charge. As nine-tenths of the rebels were pitted against our right, our forces on the right were ready all Saturday night to recommence the attack. On Sunday morning they were met on their approach by a white flag, Buckner having sent, early in the morning, a dispatch to Gen. Grant surrendering. The works extend some five miles on the outside. The rebels lose 48 field pieces, 17 heavy guns, and 20,000 stand of arms, besides a large quantity of commissary stores. The rebel troops are completely demoralized, and have no confidence in their leaders, as they charge Pillow and Floyd with deserting them. Our troops from the moment of the investment of the fort on Wednesday, lay on their arms night and day, half the time without provision, all the time without tents, and a portion of the time in a heavy storm of rain and snow.

THE KILLED AND WOUNDED

The rebels are known to have 30,000 troops, 15,000 of whom are prisoners. Five thousand escaped, and the balance are reported killed and wounded, and otherwise disabled. Our loss is not stated, but the slaughter of our ranks is mentioned as terribly severe.

The casualties on the gunboats are as follows: On the St. Louis, three killed and two wounded, including Lieut. Kendall; on the Louisville, five sailors killed, four slightly and two severely wounded, the latter having both arms shot off; on the Carondelet, four killed, six badly and two severely wounded, including the pilot; on the Pittsburgh, two wounded.

All the wounded on both sides, at Fort Donelson, will be brought to St. Louis and placed in the hospitals. A dozen or more surgeons, with a corps of hospital nurses, left Monday afternoon for the battle-field to assist in their transportation.

A private message to the sanitary commission from Cairo, received at Chicago, Monday evening, says there are 300 federal troops killed, 600 wounded and 100 missing at Fort Donelson. A large number of our wounded have been sent to the hospital at Paducah and Cairo.

GEN. BURNSIDE SUCCESSFUL CAPTURE OF ROANOKE ISLAND 2500 Prisoners Taken

By the arrival of the gunboat Stars and Stripes at Fortress Monroe, official and other reports are received of the capture of Roanoke Island, Elizabeth City and Edenton.

The bearer of dispatches to the government reports that the rout of the rebels at Roanoke Island was complete. Three thousand prisoners were captured. All the rebel gunboats were burnt or captured, except two which escaped by the Dismal Swamp canal. The federal loss was 42 killed and about 140 wounded; the rebel loss about 30 killed, and less than 100 wounded.

PARTICULARS OF THE FIGHT.

The advance from Hatteras took place on Wednesday morning, February 5, the expedition consisting of about 90 vessels. The fleet anchored off Stumpy Point that night, and next day proceeded to the entrance of Croatan Sound. After a reconnoissance, the attack on Roanoke Island commenced on Friday. The gunboat Underwriter led the column. The rebel fleet was attacked and dispersed in half an hour by a portion of our fleet, while the remainder attacked the land batteries. The fight continued until dark. During Friday night 10,000 of our men were landed, and on Saturday morning 7000 of our men were advanced. A masked battery of three guns was soon discovered by skirmishers, and was attacked in front and on both flanks. The Massachusetts 21st, 25th and 27th (Col Lee), and the 10th Connecticut, and 9th and 51st New York regiments were particularly engaged. The 25th Massachusetts and 10th Connecticut suffered most severely. The fight lasted only two or three hours, when the battery was abandoned.

Our troops then pursued the rebels and surrounded their camps, and took nearly their whole force prisoners. O. Jennings Wise, son of Henry A., and the editor of the Richmond Enquirer, was wounded, and was shot twice while endeavoring to escape in a boat.

Col. Russell, of the 10th Connecticut, was killed at the head of his regiment. Lieut. Col. Vosier de Monteil, of the D'Epineuil Zouaves was also killed. No other officers were killed above the rank of lieutenant.

The prisoners, between 2000 and 3000, were about to be sent to New York by the S. R. Spaulding and other steamers. Among them are 12 or 15 colonels, lieutenant colonels and majors.

CAPTURE OF ELIZABETH CITY.

On Sunday afternoon a fleet of 15 gunboats sailed for Elizabeth City, which was shelled, and having been evacuated and partially burnt by the rebels, was occupied by our forces. Elizabeth City was about half burnt by the rebel soldiers. The people of the town sent off a deputation to Com Goldsborough, asking him to send a force to assist in extinguishing the flames.

DESTRUCTION OF THE REBEL FLEET.

All the rebel fleet was sunk or burnt, except two boats, the Roanoke and Beaufort, which escaped through the canal. The Seabird, which was the flagship of the rebel Commodore Lynch, was run down and boarded, and the gallant commander escaped to the shore by swimming.

Official Dispatches.

A special messenger arrived at Washington Friday morning, bringing the following dispatches:—

U. S. FLAG STEAMER PHILADELPHIA, Off Roanoke Island, February 9.

Roanoke Island is ours! Its military authorities struck to us yesterday. Their means of defense were truly formidable and were used with a determination worthy of a better cause. They consisted of two elaborately constructed works, mounting twenty-two heavy guns, three being 100-pounder rifled guns, and other batteries mounting 20 guns, a large proportion of these also being of heavy caliber, and some rifled. There were also eight steamers of two guns each, and each with a rifled gun with the diameter of a 32-pounder, a prolonged obstruction of sunken vessels and piles to thwart our advance, and a body of men numbering scarcely less than five thousand, who are now our prisoners. Fighting commenced on the morning of the 7th at eleven o'clock, and continued till dark. It was resumed the next morning early, lasting till well into the afternoon, when by a bold charge of our army the rebel flag was made to succumb and our own was hoisted everywhere on the island. No attack could have been more completely executed, and it was carried out precisely in accordance with the arrangements made before the expedition left Hatteras. A detailed account of the naval operations will be forwarded hereafter. I submit herewith a general order to be read on quarter deck of each vessel.

Respectfully, (Signed) J. M. GOLDSBOROUGH. To Hon Gideon Welles.

GENERAL ORDER.

The general order of the federal naval commander to his men is as follows:—

"Your efforts of yesterday and day before against the enemy were alike worthy yourselves and the sacred cause our glorious flag upholds. I thank you for them, and congratulate you upon the results achieved. No commander-in-chief could have been more gallantly sustained or could have desired a more gratifying display of coolness, skill and discipline. We have got more work of the kind to accomplish, and will soon deliver another blow to crush the hydra of rebellion. From what I have already witnessed, I am sure you will do it well."

(Signed,) J. M. GOLDSBOROUGH.

A LATER DISPATCH.

To Hon Gideon Welles secretary of the navy, Sir—Just as I closed my dispatch to you yesterday, I received reliable information that the rebel steamers which escaped had gone to Elizabeth City. I immediately ordered Commander Rowan to take 13 of our steamers and to go in pursuit, also to destroy the gunboats up the North river, a link of Albemarle and Chesapeake canal. He dashed off with a whole heart at his work, and the way he has already accomplished the first part of it, his preliminary report will inform you. I have decided to send the Stars and Stripes to Hampton Roads to-morrow for ammunition. Mr Van Brunt, my secretary, will deliver dispatches and two rebel flags to you.

(Signed) J. M. GOLDSBOROUGH.

Gen Burnside's Report.

HEAD QUARTERS, Department of North Carolina, Roanoke Island, February 10th, 1862.— To Gen George B. McClellan: I have the honor to report that a combined attack upon this Island was commenced on the morning of the 7th, by the naval and military forces of this expedition, which has resulted in the capture of six forts, forty guns, over 2000 prisoners and upwards of 3000 small arms. Among the prisoners are Col Shaw, commander of the island, and O. Jennings Wise, commander of the Wise legion. The latter was mortally wounded and has since died.

HOW THE VICTORY WAS GAINED.

The whole work was finished on the afternoon of the 8th, after a hard days' fighting, by a brilliant charge in the center of the Island and a rapid pursuit of the enemy to the north end, resulting in the capture of the prisoners mentioned above. We have had no time to count them, but the number is estimated at nearly 3000. Our men fought bravely and have endured most manfully the hardships incident to fighting through swamps and dense thickets. It is impossible to give the details of the engagement or to mention meritorious officers and men, in the short time allowed for writing this report. The reports of the brigadier generals have not yet been handed in. It is enough to say that the officers and men of both arms of the service have fought gallantly and the plans agreed upon before leaving Hatteras were carried out. I will be excused for saying, in reference to the action, that I owe everything to Generals Foster, Reno and Parke, as more full details will show.

Commodore Goldsborough has just sent me a message stating that the expedition of his gunboats against Elizabeth City and the rebel fleet, has been entirely successful. He will of course send his returns to the navy department.

OUR LOSS IN KILLED AND WOUNDED.

I am sorry to report the loss of about 35 killed and about 200 wounded, 10 of them probably mortally. Among the killed are Col Russell of the 10th Connecticut and Col Victor De Monteil of the D'Epineuil Zouaves. Both fought most gallantly. I regret exceedingly not being able to send a full report of the killed and wounded, but will send a dispatch in a day or two with full returns.

(Signed) A. E. BURNSIDE, Brigadier General commanding the department of North Carolina.

GEN. BURNSIDE SUCCESSFUL CAPTURE OF ROANOKE ISLAND 2500 Prisoners Taken

By the arrival of the gunboat Stars and Stripes at Fortress Monroe, official and other reports are received of the capture of Roanoke Island, Elizabeth City and Edenton.

The bearer of dispatches to the government reports that the rout of the rebels at Roanoke Island was complete. Three thousand prisoners were captured. All the rebel gunboats were burnt or captured, except two which escaped by the Dismal Swamp canal. The federal loss was 42 killed and about 140 wounded; the rebel loss about 30 killed, and less than 100 wounded.

PARTICULARS OF THE FIGHT.

The advance from Hatteras took place on Wednesday morning, February 5, the expedition consisting of about 90 vessels. The fleet anchored off Stumpy Point that night, and next day proceeded to the entrance of Croatan Sound. After a reconnoissance, the attack on Roanoke Island commenced on Friday. The gunboat Underwriter led the column. The rebel fleet was attacked and dispersed in half an hour by a portion of our fleet, while the remainder attacked the land batteries. The fight continued until dark. During Friday night 10,000 of our men were landed, and on Saturday morning 7000 of our men were advanced. A masked battery of three guns was soon discovered by skirmishers, and was attacked in front and on both flanks. The Massachusetts 21st, 25th and 27th (Col Lee), and the 10th Connecticut, and 9th and 51st New York regiments were particularly engaged. The 25th Massachusetts and 10th Connecticut suffered most severely. The fight lasted only two or three hours, when the battery was abandoned.

Our troops then pursued the rebels and surrounded their camps, and took nearly their whole force prisoners. O. Jennings Wise, son of Henry A., and the editor of the Richmond Enquirer, was wounded, and was shot twice while endeavoring to escape in a boat.

Col. Russell, of the 10th Connecticut, was killed at the head of his regiment. Lieut. Col. Vosier de Monteil, of the D'Epineuil Zouaves was also killed. No other officers were killed above the rank of lieutenant.

The prisoners, between 2000 and 3000, were about to be sent to New York by the S. R. Spaulding and other steamers. Among them are 12 or 15 colonels, lieutenant colonels and majors.

CAPTURE OF ELIZABETH CITY.

On Sunday afternoon a fleet of 15 gunboats sailed for Elizabeth City, which was shelled, and having been evacuated and partially burnt by the rebels, was occupied by our forces. Elizabeth City was about half burnt by the rebel soldiers. The people of the town sent off a deputation to Com Goldsborough, asking him to send a force to assist in extinguishing the flames.

DESTRUCTION OF THE REBEL FLEET.

All the rebel fleet was sunk or burnt, except two boats, the Roanoke and Beaufort, which escaped through the canal. The Seabird, which was the flagship of the rebel Commodore Lynch, was run down and boarded, and the gallant commander escaped to the shore by swimming.

Official Dispatches.

A special messenger arrived at Washington Friday morning, bringing the following dispatches:—

U. S. FLAG STEAMER PHILADELPHIA, Off Roanoke Island, February 9.

Roanoke Island is ours! Its military authorities struck to us yesterday. Their means of defense were truly formidable and were used with a determination worthy of a better cause. They consisted of two elaborately constructed works, mounting twenty-two heavy guns, three being 100-pounder rifled guns, and other batteries mounting 20 guns, a large proportion of these also being of heavy caliber, and some rifled. There were also eight steamers of two guns each, and each with a rifled gun with the diameter of a 32-pounder, a prolonged obstruction of sunken vessels and piles to thwart our advance, and a body of men numbering scarcely less than five thousand, who are now our prisoners. Fighting commenced on the morning of the 7th at eleven o'clock, and continued till dark. It was resumed the next morning early, lasting till well into the afternoon, when by a bold charge of our army the rebel flag was made to succumb and our own was hoisted everywhere on the island. No attack could have been more completely executed, and it was carried out precisely in accordance with the arrangements made before the expedition left Hatteras. A detailed account of the naval operations will be forwarded hereafter. I submit herewith a general order to be read on quarter deck of each vessel.

Respectfully, (Signed) J. M. GOLDSBOROUGH. To Hon Gideon Welles.

GENERAL ORDER.

The general order of the federal naval commander to his men is as follows:—

"Your efforts of yesterday and day before against the enemy were alike worthy yourselves and the sacred cause our glorious flag upholds. I thank you for them, and congratulate you upon the results achieved. No commander-in-chief could have been more gallantly sustained or could have desired a more gratifying display of coolness, skill and discipline. We have got more work of the kind to accomplish, and will soon deliver another blow to crush the hydra of rebellion. From what I have already witnessed, I am sure you will do it well."

(Signed,) J. M. GOLDSBOROUGH.

A LATER DISPATCH.

To Hon Gideon Welles secretary of the navy, Sir—Just as I closed my dispatch to you yesterday, I received reliable information that the rebel steamers which escaped had gone to Elizabeth City. I immediately ordered Commander Rowan to take 13 of our steamers and to go in pursuit, also to destroy the gunboats up the North river, a link of Albemarle and Chesapeake canal. He dashed off with a whole heart at his work, and the way he has already accomplished the first part of it, his preliminary report will inform you. I have decided to send the Stars and Stripes to Hampton Roads to-morrow for ammunition. Mr Van Brunt, my secretary, will deliver dispatches and two rebel flags to you.

(Signed) J. M. GOLDSBOROUGH.

Gen Burnside's Report.

HEAD QUARTERS, Department of North Carolina, Roanoke Island, February 10th, 1862.— To Gen George B. McClellan: I have the honor to report that a combined attack upon this Island was commenced on the morning of the 7th, by the naval and military forces of this expedition, which has resulted in the capture of six forts, forty guns, over 2000 prisoners and upwards of 3000 small arms. Among the prisoners are Col Shaw, commander of the island, and O. Jennings Wise, commander of the Wise legion. The latter was mortally wounded and has since died.

HOW THE VICTORY WAS GAINED.

The whole work was finished on the afternoon of the 8th, after a hard days' fighting, by a brilliant charge in the center of the Island and a rapid pursuit of the enemy to the north end, resulting in the capture of the prisoners mentioned above. We have had no time to count them, but the number is estimated at nearly 3000. Our men fought bravely and have endured most manfully the hardships incident to fighting through swamps and dense thickets. It is impossible to give the details of the engagement or to mention meritorious officers and men, in the short time allowed for writing this report. The reports of the brigadier generals have not yet been handed in. It is enough to say that the officers and men of both arms of the service have fought gallantly and the plans agreed upon before leaving Hatteras were carried out. I will be excused for saying, in reference to the action, that I owe everything to Generals Foster, Reno and Parke, as more full details will show.

Commodore Goldsborough has just sent me a message stating that the expedition of his gunboats against Elizabeth City and the rebel fleet, has been entirely successful. He will of course send his returns to the navy department.

OUR LOSS IN KILLED AND WOUNDED.

I am sorry to report the loss of about 35 killed and about 200 wounded, 10 of them probably mortally. Among the killed are Col Russell of the 10th Connecticut and Col Victor De Monteil of the D'Epineuil Zouaves. Both fought most gallantly. I regret exceedingly not being able to send a full report of the killed and wounded, but will send a dispatch in a day or two with full returns.

(Signed) A. E. BURNSIDE, Brigadier General commanding the department of North Carolina.

The following document, expressing the thanks of the president to our gallant commanders and the men under them, for the recent brilliant victories, was issued on Saturday:—

WASHINGTON. February 15.

The president, commander-in-chief of the army and navy, returns thanks to Brigadier-General Burnside and Flag-Officer Foote, and the land and naval forces under their respective command, for their gallant achievements in the capture of Fort Henry and at Roanoke Island. While it will be no ordinary pleasure for him to acknowledge and reward in a becoming manner the valor of the living, he also recognizes his duty to the memory of the gallant dead. The charge at Roanoke Island, like the bayonet charge at Mill Spring, proves that the close grapple and sharp steel of loyal and patriotic soldiers, must always put rebels and traitors to flight. The late achievement of the navy show that the flag of the Union, once borne in proud glory around the world by naval heroes, will soon again float over every rebel city and stronghold, and that it shall forever be honored and respected as the emblem of liberty and union, in every land and upon every sea. by order of the president.

BURNSIDE MARCHING ON. More North Carolina Towns Occupied by the Federal Troops.

A dispatch from Petersburg, Va., states that Edenton and Hertford, North Carolina towns on Albemarle sound, had both been taken by the federals.

A rumor had reached Norfolk that the Yankees had also taken Plymouth, on the Roanoke river. It was also said that a couple of federal vessels had proceeded on a reconnoissance as far as Coleraine, up the Chowan river.

A gentleman from Currituck sound on Thursday, who has arrived at Fortress Monroe, says several of our gunboats arrived at the canal Thursday afternoon and commenced shelling the rebels who were engaged in destroying the canal.

A Norfolk account says that 5 federal gunboats moved slowly to the wharf at Edenton and landed their troops, on Thursday. Very soon afterwards 15 more gunboats arrived. The citizens raised the white flag. Between 3000 and 4000 federal troops landed at Edenton. The population of Edenton is about 2000. It is distant from Suffolk about 50 miles. In the afternoon 2 federal gunboats went up Chowan river towards Winton, and several others towards the mouth of the Roanoke.

A gentleman from Gatesville says 700 horses were landed at Edenton, and also a large number had been landed at Elizabeth City.

Hertford, the capital of Perquimans county, was taken by the federals on Thursday.

Capt Goodman, of the North Carolina Rip Van Winkles, with 52 of his men and 7 of the Wise legion, have reached Suffolk.

Gen Wise is near Currituck Court House, and sent a flag of truce to Roanoke Island on Thursday.

The rebels think the mortar fleet is intended for Norfolk. Very likely.

IMPORTANT FROM TENNESSEE OUTBREAK OF UNION FEELING. The Gunboat Expedition up the Tennessee River.

CINCINNATI, February 12.—Special dispatches to the Gazette and Commercial, dated Fort Henry 10th inst., give the following account of the gunboat expedition up the Tennessee river:

After the capture of Fort Henry the Lexington, Conestoga and Tyler gave chase to the rebel steamer Dunbar, and on reaching the Memphis and Louisville Railroad bridge set fire to a portion of it, and captured some stores, etc. They then passed on in chase of the Dunbar, but did not overtake her. It is supposed that she escaped by running up some creek.

During the night the gunboats went to Florence, Alabama, the head of navigation, and two hundred and fifty miles from Paducah. Everywhere along the river they were received with astonishing welcome by numerous Union families in Southern Tennessee and Northern Alabama, and at the towns along the river the old flag was looked upon as a redeemer, and hailed with shouts of joy.

Captain Gwynn, of the Tyler, has recruited thirty men for service on the gunboats, and says he can get enough for the whole fleet.

The people of Florence are so delighted at finding the Stars and Stripes once more giving protection to them, that they were prepared to give a grand ball to the officers of the gunboats, but they could not remain to accept of their courtesies.

Wherever our boats landed, and the people became assured that we did not come to destroy but to save, they seemed to have no means too extravagant to express their delight and joy.

Our gunboats captured four steamers, including an unfinished gunboat, and burned seven others.

They captured a large quantity of stores and one hundred and eighty stand of arms.

IMPORTANT FROM KENTUCKY. The Rebels Run from Bowling Green!

A despatch from Maj Gen Buell at Louisville, Saturday, to Gen McClellan at Washington, states that Gen Mitchell's division of federal troops by a forced march reached the river at Bowling Green, Saturday morning, and commenced building a bridge to cross, the enemy having burned their bridge at 1 o'clock the same morning, and began evacuating the place as fast as possible when Mitchell arrived.

BOWLING GREEN OCCUPIED.

A dispatch from Louisville, on Sunday, says Gen Mitchell's troops have crossed the river, and are in possession of Bowling Green.

LATER.—PART OF THE TOWN BURNED.

On learning that the rebels were evacuating Bowling Green, Gen Buell ordered a forced march by Gen Mitchell, to save, if possible, the railroad and turnpike bridges on Big Barren river. They, however, had all been destroyed when Gen Mitchell reached the bank of the river. The brigades of Gen Breckinridge and Hindman were until Thursday evening at Woodland station. The rebels left nothing at Bowling Green except a few old wagons. A part of the town, it is reported, is being burnt.

CAPTURE OF SAVANNAH.

Passengers from Old Point report at Baltimore that news had reached Norfolk of the surrender of Savannah to the federal forces without firing a gun.

The Philadelphia Inquirer of Tuesday morning says the navy department has received dispatches stating that the stars and stripes wave over Savannah. The city has been re-taken, re-occupied and re-possessed. The gunboats were eleven in number. These and three transports formed the advance of the federal fleet. This portion of the expedition alone carried eight thousand troops. Among the regiments concerned were the ninety-seventh Pennsylvania, the sixth Connecticut and the fourth New Hampshire. The route taken has not been made known. Reconnoitering expeditions for some time past have passed up Wilmington river, in the rear of Fort Pulaski and Wall's Cut, emerging upon the Savannah river, in the neighborhood of Fort Jackson. It is probable that the gunboats ascended through these same channels and attacked Fort Jackson.

MRS. PARTINGTON MORALLY SPEAKING.

"What makes the gas light so vaccinating?" said Mrs. Partington, endeavoring to thread her needle as the gas light rose and fell, now springing up to a brilliant flame, and now going almost out. It became steady at last, when Ike emerged from the cellar. "Where have you been?" enquired she, looking round at him. "Been to try the meter wrench," he replied. "What?" she screamed in a tone that raised the cap off her head: "meet a wrench, you disgraceful boy, how dare you say such a thing? I am almost tempted to take corrosive measures, and punish you within an inch of your skin. Such a fragrant outrage I never saw in one so young. Boys that show such a moral turpentine never come to an end." She ceased suddenly, like a horse car brought up by a drawbridge, and rocked back and forth much excited. "I didn't do nothing," said Ike: "only tried this thing that the gas men gave me," and held out to her a small wrench used to turn the gas off with, which he had been trying in the cellar. Mrs. Partington blushed like a maple tree in October, and patting the boy on the head, sent him out with a three cent piece that he had been for an hour teasing her for in vain.

HYMN FOR MOTHERS.

BY WM. C. BRYANT.

Lord, who ordainest for mankind Benignant toils and tender cares, We thank thee for the ties that bind The mother to the child she bears.

We thank thee for the hopes that rise Within her heart, as, day by day, The dawning soul from those young eyes Looks with a clearer, steadier ray.

And grateful for the blessing given, With that dear infant on her knee, She trains the eye to look to heaven, The voice to lisp a prayer to thee.

Such thanks the blessed Mary gave, When from her lap, the holy Child, Sent from above to seek and save The lost of earth looked up and smiled.

All-Gracious! grant to those who bear A mother's charge, the strength and light To guide the feet that own their care, In ways of Love and Truth and Right.

The Knight and Jester of the Period.

[From the London Star.]

In days of old, when might was right, Each strong-armed but beef-witted knight Had a buffoon among his vassals, Bedecked with bells, and bobs, and tassels. Whose scurril jests supplied the want Of wit in his superior, The master's powers of mind being scant— Decidedly inferior. This jester's duty was to flatter His master's friends, his foes bespatter, And back him up in ev'ry matter. Now once again in days of steam, Telegrams and artillery, A modern anti-type I seem To find of ancient chivalry! Sir Times rides pompous through the land, Laying down law with iron hand, Clothed cap-a-pie in shining mail; And on his mule, face turned to tail, His jester, Punch, trots after; And every word the great man speaks The fool chimes in with silly squeaks And addle-pated laughter!

GEN. McCLELLAN'S PLAN.

It is a favorite occupation, just now, of the Washington correspondents to talk and speculate about McClellan's plan of the campaign. Even Congressional Committees are said to look wise and mysterious after an interview with the General, and to express entire satisfaction with his statements, whatever they may be. Few of these correspondents attempt to give details, but they all pretend to know that the Commander-in-Chief has a plan for the suppression of rebellion, and that it will be worked out with more or less of celerity and certainly.

The following "plan" is chalked out by George Wilkes in his last letter from Washington, and is as likely to prove correct as any:-

"The news which comes from Europe by the late arrivals has been scrutinized with much concern in leading circles here, but I have reason to believe that Mr Seward and the President do not share in this anxiety. Like them, I am convinced that, before two months pass over our heads, we may regard the possible recognition of the Confederacy, even by all Europe, as a matter of perfect indifference to our campaign, and snap our fingers at all threats of breaking the blockade.

It is the plan of General McClellan, firstly, to make all sure against the danger of European interference: and then to deal at greater leisure with the extinction of the rebel fires. Instead of maintaining cruising squadrons off the interdicted ports, or of blockading channels up with stone, he intends to plant Federal armies in every rebel seaport city before the first day of May, and thus throw their harbors open to the world. There will then be no blockade to break, and the rebels, who will be thoroughly hemmed in by our constricting lines, will cut a very sorry figure among the 'recognized' powers of the earth. Their sympathizing English abolition friends will hardly then pretend to break the land blockade of our bayonets, and treason will be obliged to depend solely upon itself.

There is no difficulty in the task. The Burnside expedition will give us the whole of the North Carolina coast. The army of Port Royal will shortly have possession of both Charleston and Savannah. The occupation of Cedar Keys, Key West, the Tortugases and Fernandina, gives us control of the whole peninsula of Florida; Fort Pickens commands Pensacola, whenever we will have it: Ship Island can at any time decide the destiny of Mobile; and the division of General Heintzleman, now being mustered for a new Southern expedition, cannot be kept out of the rear entrance which yields up New Orleans. All this is within the certain grasp of a few weeks, and when it is performed, and we sit relieved of all apprehensions of further interference from the arch enemy who has been our bane for the last six months, I am inclined to think it will be pretty generally admitted that General McClellan had a plan.

As early as the date when he was called to the chief command, it had become evident that England meant us mischief, and that the first pretext would be seized to smite us with a blow, to divide our fearfully increasing power forever. It was natural, therefore, that McClellan, who knew he could deal easily with treason if but let alone, should direct his first attention to making his parallels against outside interference. It was apparent to him, as it soon became obvious to every one, that we were really conducting a war with England, as the ally of the Southern rebels, and that we must completely block her out of the game, before we could expect to break treason's heart and hopes. Had he been seconded by a little more vigor in the Department of the Navy, we might have been through with this branch of the campaign already, and rebellion be occupying so pitiful an attitude that none of its foreign friends would think for a moment of countenancing so shabby an acquaintance."

Fort Donelson.—In his speech, responsive to the serenade, Gen. Halleck, after thanking his friends for the compliment, he remarked: "It is Fort Henry, to-night, and it will be Fort Donelson to-morrow night." Most of our readers have formed, from recent reports, a pretty accurate idea where Fort Donelson is. It is a fortification made of earth, and was constructed about the same time last summer as Fort Henry. Situated at Dover, on the west bank of the Cumberland, where that river washes an obtuse angle, it is twelve miles southeast of the latter fort, and mounts about ten 24 and 32-pounders.

Some seven or eight post roads intersect at this point, and the Memphis and Clarksville railroad passes but four miles south of it. The position is important as controlling the river as far up as Clarksville, and, in conjunction with Fort Henry and Tennessee bridge, as breaking off from the rebels some twenty miles of railroad communication.

We are without any reliable information in regard to the rebel garrison at Fort Donelson. Up to the 20th of January it was only occupied by a few companies, but may have been, and probably has been, largely reinforced since that time.

Possibly the bulk of General Tilghman's command retreated there instead of Paris, as is generally supposed. Or fresh troops may have been thrown into it from Clarksville. Clarksville, where the railroad crosses the Cumberland, is about thirty miles from Dover. Extensive and formidable rebel works have been in construction here for two or three months, and a large number of heavy guns shipped thither, it is said, for the protection of the bridge and the communication with Nashville. It is also reported that General Buckner left Bowling Green ten or twelve days ago with ten thousand men, supposed to be destined for Clarksville. Thus it will be seen that matters are growing serious for the Confederates in the Cumberland and Tennessee valleys.—St. Louis Republican.

Exciting Race Upon A Railroad Track.

A Horse Beats A Locomotive.

A rather exciting incident occurred upon the Boston and Worcester railroad last night. Just as the quarter past nine, P. M., outward Newton special train was approaching Newton Corner, a horse and sleigh—the latter occupied by three young men from Boston—came up over the public road. The horse, alarmed at the noise of the coming locomotive, whirled suddenly round, threw out the three young men, and dashed up the track ahead of the engine, at a spanking pace. The train followed close behind, at a speed of at least fifteen miles per hour; but at every stopping place the engineer ascertained the horse was a good distance ahead. Culverts were plentiful, but the horse escaped them all, crossed the bridge over Charles River, at the junction with the branch, and, what is more remarkable, passed safely over a bridge without flooring, a half a mile or so beyond. The engineers and others on the train, as soon as they had landed their passengers, went in pursuit, and found the horse, after innumerable escapes, had at last fallen into a culvert at the side of the road at the Needham ledge, and was so firmly imbedded that it was necessary to procure saws and axes to relieve him from his confined position. The sleigh was broken to pieces. The horse was living this morning, but will probably turn out to be more or less injured by his night gallop over the railroad.

The whole distance traveled was about five miles, and the uncovered bridge was 160 feet long. An examination of the bridge, this morning, proves that the horse, in leaping the spans of the structure, gathered upon every third sleeper, and this too in the night time, a feat probably never excelled. The sleepers are about three feet apart.—Traveller, 29th.

The Wretch.—A young lady who has the misfortune to reside in a boarding-house in this city, and who is vain of her pianoforte playing, was recently entertaining a party of friends with a fashionable song, when an old bachelor boarder rushed out of his room to the head of the stairs, and shouted:—

"What are you hurting that pig for? Turn him into the street."

"What pig?" asked the lady, so astonished that she stopped singing.

The bachelor descended the stairs, looked into the room, and said, "I thought I heard a pig squealing in this room!"

The young lady thought him a wretch, and said so.

A "maiden lady," whose "school-keeping," and age have made fearful havoc with her beauty, said one evening to one of her little auditors, "Now, Herby, you go to bed early, and always do so, and you will be rosy-checked and handsome when you grow up." The little codger looked up quizzingly, into her wrinkled countenance, and said: "Well, aunty, I guess you used to sit up late a good deal when you was young, didn't you?"
