A Naval Engagement al Beaufort
.-Character of the Battle---Val.
ue of the Dahlgreem Gums.
Correspondence of the Baltimore Sum- '--

Correspondence of the Baltimore Sun, ~.
WASHINGTON, Nov. IA.
Much interest is felt to know what armed
vessels were actually engaged against the bat
teries in front of Beaufort. Com. Dupont
speaks of the Sabine, the Savannah and the
St. Lawrence as not being in the action. He
does not name what vessels other than the
Wabash (5S great guns) were engaged, but
the list published in Government organs just
on the eve of the departure of the feet, show
steam frigates, sailing vessels and gunboats,
in all carrying some four hundred guns.
1t is considered in military circles that the
taking of the forts is great achievement in
deed, for it has generally been held that guns
on shipboard could not contend, except at
great odds, with batteries on shore protected
by easements. Officers Of the navy familiar
with the wild destructive work made by the
ten and eleven inch Dahlgreen shells, say
that it is not strange that the men should
abandon earthworks where these missiles were
poured in at the rate of sixteen a minute
On this score the experience of old wars is not
applicable, since that the ordnance and pro-
jectiles of the present day are infinitely supe-
rior to those formerly used
The plan of attack at Beaufort was differ
ent from the old STYLE 1t was first practiced
at Odessa, in the Crimean war, and was par
ticularly advantageous at Beaufort, for the rea-
son that the forts were opposite each other.
The vessels under Com. Dupont, instead of
anchoring in front of the forts and opening
fire, kept sailing around in the form of a par
abola, and delivered broadsides against both
forts at near the same time. The movement
of the vessls prevented accurate sighting of
the guns in the batteries, and as the latter
were constructed with reference to a land at
tack as we'll as one at sea, their guns were
hardly brought to bear

The situation in Southeastern Kentucky is
involved in mystery. Our correspondence
from the Cumberland division reports that
Zollcoffer had abandoned the Gap and re-.
treated toward Knoxville, while the Union
forces are also falling back. The Tennessee
troops, in the Cumberland column, grumbled
so loudly at the order to retreat that they
were permitted to remain at Loudon. The
soldiers are anxious to march into Tennessee,
and it is to be hoped they will soon be graft
fed. Marching and countermarching over
the mountain roads at this season is neither
profitable nor agreeable Cincinnati Gazette

WHAT SHOULD BE DONE WITH SOUTH CARO-
L1NA-A PRo-SLAvERY PAPERS OPINION
The St. Louis Republican, paper which not
withstanding it's name, has never had the
most remote connection with the party that
elected the present Administration, says:
In all the stages of this cruel rebellion the
Palmetto State has shown most ferocious
and devilish spirit. We cannot but feel re-
joiced that her waywardness and pride have at
least in some measure been chastised and
humbled. She may now taste some of the
fruits of her wicked disobedience, and awake
to find the Government against which she
has lifted her parricidal hand, stern and un-
forgetful disciplinarian, terribly in earnest
For nearly year she has enjoyed compar.
alive immunity from the calamities and
hardships she was so prone to bring upon he1
sister States. For seven months no known
friend of the Union has been permitted on he,
soil, except as prisoner. Let South Caro-
lima feel sharply the iron hand she has pro
voked, and the just punishment-w we had al
most said the condign vengeance-she has
richly merited.

GEN. LANES IDEA OF DIsPosING OF econ.
rRABANDs." Gen. Lane made another char
acteristic speech recently to the soldiers of
the Indiana and Kansas regiments at Spring
field, No. In the course of his remarks he
declared that "a heavier blow is dealt out to
1.-THE realm of secessia in the abduction or
freedom Of slave than by killing rebel in
"arms" He puts the same idea in stronger
language, thus: "Abdmct from the same fam
lily slars, and kill in arms a son, and the
Gloss of the slave will be regarded as the
greatest mas fortune calamity for sohicA
''there is no healing BALM"
The conclusion drawn from this startling
fact is irresista BILE: ~
If then by allowing the slave to fall into
the wake of the army and find the priceless
boon of freedom, we avoid bloodshed, save
property from destruction, and strike death
dealing blows upon the head and front of this
rebellion, does not every consideration that is
good and just require that this policy be
adopted. This war is for slavery-let us
make it the mighty engine for slaverys des-
truction, and the rebels will soon cry enough.
They will see that, like Saturn in the fable,
they are eating up their own children, and
will consent to cut short the repast. Every
guarantee that is given to slavery by the Gov
eminent strengthens the rebels in their
course. e

1t appears that the Iowa 9TH lost more men
in killed and wounded, in front Of the bat
teries during the charge, in proportion to
their whole number, than any other regi-
ment, and they lost more prisoners in the re-
treat. They led the charge and covered the
retreat they received the enemy's fire in the
advance and shielded the Illinois regiments
with their own bodies, and again they covered
them in their retreat and held the enemy in
check till the Illinoisans got out Of danger
And yet, after all their prominence and suf-
fering, the Ilinoisans take all the glory to
themselves and forget their benefactors, if we
may judge by the reports Of the battle pub
lished in the Chicago papers.

them is unknown.
At latest accounts Gen. Lane was ahead of
the rebels some forty miles, who were pursu-

a large number of Indians. The rebels are
said to be commanded by Tom Harris, and
are destined for Kansas, which State they say
