Semi-weekly standard. [volume] (Raleigh, N.C.) 1853-18??, 1858-11-13

friend to his country will Join with us in wishing
that the terms may be such as not only to put pc
riOd to the present troubles but to remove all jeal
Ousy, and to restore mutual confidence and mutual
harmony for the future. In the meantime captures
increase in almost every quarter. More than 20
West Indies and a much larger number on the
coast of America.
To balance these losses, they boast of the capture
of the Isle of Providence, and battle gained over
a body of insurgents on the back settlements of
North Carolina. But neither of these are of much
consequence; the power and warlike stores were
removed from the former, and by the latter they
only reduced body of their own people, supported
by no one company of regular troops
the Tory army, as they pleased to call the 10y
alsts, with Capt Mcleod at their head made their
attack on Col Caswell and Col. Ellington, at
Moore's Creekbridge, and finding small entrench-
ment on our side of the water empty, concluded
that our people had abandoned their post, and in
the most furious manner advanced within thirty
PAGES of our breast-work, where Capt. Mcleod and
Capt. Campbell fell in leading on the attack the
former Of whom received near twenty balls through
his body, and in very few minutes the whole army
was put to flight, and most shamefully abandoned
their General, who was the next day taken prisoner
In this furious onset about 80 of the Tory army
were killed and wounded, and only two wounded
on the part of the conquerors one of whom is since
dead. z,e.e-s., a., -......r s1F-,..,5 1.
This Tory army, as it is called, appears to have
beena company Of Hghlanders, hastily drawn to-
gethcr by two Scotch officers, MessrR Mcdonald
and MCLEOD. who, having passed through Newbem
the latter end Of last year, suspected Of some
sinister designs and questioned by the Provncials
cQnctruing their business who pretended they were
officers wounded at Bunker's Hill and had left the
army with design to settle among their friends

go 10 San Juan del Sur to look after the Her
mann,

The Steamer Washington at Aspinwau.

New York, Dec. 1.-THE Hcrald's Aspin-
wall correspondent gives detailed account of
the incidents which occurred at Aspiuwall on
the arrival of the Washington. When it was
ascertained that Capt Churchill had not re-
ceiyed from his owners the anticipated orders
for forwarding his passengers to San Francisco
by the Panama route and that he must take
them back to New York, the excitement on
board was terrible. Some proposed sinking
the ship, others expressed wish to knife or
hang the owners, and doubtless would have
done so, had they been present A meeting
was finally called, and committee appointed
to act in the emergency. In reply to a tele-
graph despatch, the agent of the steamers at
Panama, agreed to take to San Francisco such
passengers as could pay, at greatly reduced
price. About 200 were able to raise money to
go forward on these terms. The remainder
about l9D-were unable to do Sc, being entire
ly destitute and were therefore obliged to re-
turn in the Washington, to New York Great
distress exists among these, many of them are
women, who, with their children, were going
to join their husbands, and who, before leaving
the States had sold everything, in order to
provide the means for the passage, They are
now in New York destitute, The Directors
Of the Company held meeting Saturday
afternoon, tie determine what course to pursue
1t is stated that the Company will send out
another steamer to the Isthmus, and also
second boat round the Horn. The passengers
have been offered board at the expense of the
Company till the steamers are ready.
