At o'clock on Tuesday evening, the eth

sisting of the Minnesota" flag ship, Commodore
Strineham, and thirteen other vessels and nu-

could not have reached you but an hour or two
before the enemy had made Hatteras Inlet
The enemy on Wednesday, succeeded IN land

hundred men. but the wind blowing from the
southwest, with heavy surf breaking, they de-
sisted from any further effort, with the exception
of getting on shore twelve pound rifle gun and
a twelve pound howitzer. They opened their tre
principally on Fort CLARK. During that day, that
post was abandoned and the garrison retreated 10

Military Secretary.
RALEIGH, N. c., Sept. 5th, 1861.

Hon. WARREN WINsLow, Secretary Of
Military and Naoal Department Of ~. g.:
Sn.: have the honor to report my arrival here
from my post, constructing engineer of Fort
Oregon.
We had nearly finished that Fort when the can
nonading began at Hatteras and fastened on
wards with defences having 13 good guns
mounted, and battery of FIVE long 32-
Founders completed at that time
We stopped the fugitives from Hatteras who
came way, and put them in our ranks, until
numbered near 800 We sent our pro-
visions and munitions Of war into the Fort, made
| arrangements for water, and every officer and
soldier seemed determined on a resolute defence
until Saturday. the 3lst Of August GIN that
day came to Oregon naval officers of high
rank acting under orders from Flag Officer Forrest
of the G. s. NJ commgnding at Norfolk.
These gentlemen, to my surprise, advocated an
immediate evacuation of Fort Oregon, although
it substantially finished, and had not been
even threatened by the enemy!
At council of war that day held, their iniu-
ence prevailed, and | could find but three officers
(incudng myself) who were willing to defend the
post to the last extremity although, l assured
them ALL as Engineer of the Fort, that it could be
held for week at least, with the means at our
command and thus give time for the power of the
interior to come to our relief.
My protest was unavang-the evacuation was
decided on, and carried out with great loss and
damage Of public property.
Dscaiming all imputations against any officer
present, it seems to be my duty, Engineer of
the Post, to state explicitly that this evacuation of
a strong Fortress just finished, just mounted with
its armament and not even threatened by the
enemy acas not justified By any military necessity
Since my arrival here, [ regret to learn that
Fort Ocracoke has also been abandoned by its
garrison. This is the more extraordinary as that
post as almost inprcgnaJle-it cannot be ap-
preached within FIVE miles by the heavy ships of
the enemy, and can only be attacked by vessels of
light draft Of water and of inferior power.
l am, sir, very respectfully yours,

Dissolution.

The firm Of FULLINGS, SPRINGS & co. was dis
solved by limitation on the lst January, 1861.
The business viii be continued under the name and
style OF FULLINGS & SPRINGS, and they hope by
integrity ana strict attention business, merit the
same patronage heretofore literally bestowed by their
numerous friends and customers.
The present financial crisis and the uncertainty Of
business for the future compel shorten time
OF credit from twelve to six months to prompt paying
custOmCrs-uUnc others need ask it.
All persons indebted to the old firm Of Fullings,
Springs & Co., must come forward and make immediate
settlement, It IS absolutely necessary that the busi
ness be speedily closed up. "a word to the wise is suf-
Cicnt" Jan 10, 1861.

stantly recording some evidence of the ability
of the South to take care of hcrsef.-We are all
fully determined to make the trial, and so all are
trying to supply some want heretofore supplied by
the North This is just as it should bo. The
last important article of home manufacture that
we have seen, is ball of seaCtng thread, from
Cedar Falls Factory. 1t is first rate for ordinary
purposes, 600 yards to the ball, and sold in this
market at ten cents. Hurra for Cedar Falls
