The Capture of the Rebel Forts of
Reapfort.

The Port Royal correspondent of the New
York Tribune under date of November 8, gives
the following graphic and spirited description of
the capture Of the rebel forts near Beaufort:
On Thursday the battleday dawned bright
aud clear, the morning being as warm and bal
my as day of our Northern June; small sing
ing birds from the shore paid occasional visits
and hundreds of lovely butterflies fiuttered
through the rigging, one of which, captured in
the thiokest of the fight, is my individual me-
mento of the frny. The water was broken into
gentle rippes by the pleasant breeze, which
proved of just sufficient power in the succeed
Ing eventful hours to lift the battle-smoke from
the water, and give to the splendid audience of
many thousands the finest possible views Of the
deadly spectacle
The transports were securely anchored at a
safe distance, just out of cannon range, and
were crowded in every available part of deck and
rigging with an eager and excited thrOng.
There had been rumor that daring attempt
was to be made by some of the rebel gunboats,
during the heat of the action, and while all our
armed vessels were engaged at distance OF
several miles from our transports, TO dash down
into the flock of unarmed ships, and burn, sink,
and destroy. 10 prevent the accomplishment Of
this notable scheme, the sloop-of war Dale, which
had that morning arrived, was towed out to q
position to intercept any such hostile craft.
Flag Officer Dupont had ordered that the ships
| should form in two llnes-the starooard or mRiT
column nearest the shore, being led by the Va
bash, under Flag Officer Dupont himself, and th'
port or flanking column being headed by thI
BienUille, Capt Steedman.
The batteries were situated-one, a strong, ad
mirably built fortifcation called Fort Walker
mounting 23 guns, one on the side of the Broat
River (here about two and half miles wide,
aud two other batteries behind less elabOrat
earth-works, on the opposite side Of the river
or the latter one mounted 10 guns, and wa
named Fort Beauregard, and the other guns.
The plan Of our attack was equally simple
admirable and effective. being neither more no
less than for the ships to steam in circle, o
ellipse, rnnning close to one shore as they cam
down" the river drifting OF steaming as slowl
as possible past the batteries there, and payin
= their fiery respects, then making the turn 10 6
back, aud as they went up the river, favoring tn
I other batteries with similar complimentary
game to be continued ad Abitua, or until th
rebel flag came down.
The ships were all prepared for action the da
before, and, OF O'Clock on Thursday morning
\ began to move from their respective points
anchorage, and take their appointed places
the line Of battle. AT about holf-past 8 o'cloC

NUTTlNG TINE.

The nuts are ripe and the day is fine,
The purple hills in the sunlight shine
And the brown nuts reddcn the trembling tops
Of each gnarled tree in the hazel copse.
The copse is filed with the happy noise
OF laughing girls and climbing boys,
And the beated branches yield their fruit
That heavily drops at each old trees root.
Under the brow and the eopse-crowned hill,
Ethel and sit silent and still,
And hold in mine her small W hite hand,
The smallest and whitest in the land.
Gather your fruits ye lads above,
And fling the nuts Mt the girls you love;
The only fruit to me was dear,

The Grand Charity Festival and

tite, while the usual "outside shows,
such as the g What is it ?" the Grab
Bag" the Fortune Teller" &c.
done tolerably fair business, and
caused much amusement. One fact
is worthy of notice, and gave very gen

the articles offered were sold ct rea-
sonable instead of exhorbitant prices.
The musical performances of the
Amateur Quadrille Band were excel
lent, and wonld have done credit to

propriated, as originally intended, to
establish fund in aid Of the Poor, as
necessity may hereafter require.
The Ladies are entitled to great
praise for the liberal and business like
manner in which the whole affair was
conducted, and demonstrated the fact
to fraction that the Ladies of Lam
bertville know how to get up Fes-
tival and make it pay.
Everything passed off tremendously
and all who attended were well pleased,
for from the manner in which it was
conducted no reasonable person could
feel otherwise.
