Roanoke Island has fallen and with i saver-
al thousand brave men fall into federal hands
How many more Islands will our authorities
erect sand batteries on, and how many more
good men are to be hemrned in by water TO
become prisoners Rather let us retire from
the water everywhere, burning everything be-
hind Us, and entrench ourselves cut of the
range of the enemy's guns SO as to force them
to fight Us or land. Sand batteries, short
range guns, and no means Of escape-who
wonders that the island was taken?

| These are facts we'll known to many both mil
itary aud civilians in this community.
Gen. Hill was present at the battle of Beth
ell and was probably efficient on that occasion
but he is neither man of genius, or great
General. This is no time to discuss our defer
ces, bot after the war is over we can point out
monuments Of his folly in this vicinity if his
admiring friends want to see them.
The contemplate scribler in the Dispatch
says Hill did not pet" the PRocREss and the
people of Newbern, and hence our malice. Here
he lies. The Progress is in 10 condition TO
want to be petted by any one, and our people
are incapable Of that bitterness in the way OF
malice, prejudice and hatred that seems to
characterize some of the citizens Of Washing
ton towards them. Nearly everybody here
hailed the coming of Gen. Hi with joy on ac
count Of the reputation which preceded him
and while they did not desire to be petted by
him they expected and had right to expect
ciyIlity, and the treatment due from one gen
lleman 20 another, but We are sorry to say, as
several respectable gentlemen Will attest they
did not get it.
This scribler forgets to tell the public that
part of the powder used at Bethel (the Beth
ell which made Gen. Hill great and at Manas-
sas was procured by the private enterprise and
individual funds of a few of the citizens OF
Newbern, whom be now vilifes and libelS
after the war was in full blast. And We will
here add that neither State nor Confede ate
Government has yet reimbursed these citizens
for this patriotic outlay.
Go where we will We hear the people of our
town and county libeled by their enemies
for want Of patriotism and liberaIity in pros
ccuting the war, and hence we take OCCASION
again to assert that Craven County and the
;own OF Newbern have done more for the war
n suen, money and labor than any other town
and county in the State, according to popula-
ion, Beaufort and Washington not excepted,
md in support Of this assertion we are ready
% produce facts and figures.
The public must excuse US for the space oc-
,upied by this matter. It is not any concern
We feel for the Dtspatch or the pious inlivitI- |
lals who are supposed to "do up" its edito-
ials, but in vindication Of q gallant and b, ave
nan, who We think has been badly treated, |
nd to hurl back base ISLANDERS attempted to !
,e heaped upon the citizet of our town, that !
We have been thus lengthy.

TIE WAR N TIE WEST-CAPTURE 0
Fort HENRY II TENNESSEE

DISPATCHES were received at tie War Depart
ment yesterday confirming the Intelligence
which is reported in telegraphic column
this morning Of the capture of Fort Henry,
in Tennessee, by the Yankees. The dispatches
are meagre and add nothing to what has been
received over the wires by the press. No
statement OF loss is given, and it is supposed
that the whole of the garrison escaped.
Fort Donelson, towards which it is reoorted
our force was retreatIng is the Cum oerlant.
river, and is an important post, as it defends
the city of Memphis.
Fort Henry is nothing more than mud fort.
near the Tennessee river, where it is crossed bv
the Memphis and Tennessee railroad but the
burning, by the Yankees, of the bridge over the
river must be taken serious disaster, as
the communication betH cen Bowling Green and
Columbus is. t. this extent, interrupted.
The expedition of the enemy, however, does
not appear to have accomplished any important
result as the government made pretense of
seriously defending the point they have pos
sessed. There seems to be impression that
the enemy, who are extras agantly reported TO be
twenty thousand strong migt be cut off by Gen,
johnson; but movement of this sort, which
would require rapidity. seems to be practically
impossible from what we learn of the condition
of the roads in Kentucky.
In the direction Of Bowling Green there is
said to be but little prospect Of fight, or of
an esrly advance movement OF the enemy

That Col Single.ary was good officer we
are ready % admit. We can have no contro-
vcTsy on that point with the Progress. But
that Gen. Hill got him out Of the service IT, g
TToGTSSs knows to be untrue. The supposition
| IS an lnSlnuation upon the intelligence and in
; tegrit} If the court who tried him The asser-
jlon IS SANDER " ere the intelligent gentle
men " no composed that court at the beck and
call OF Gen. Hi? Did they find a brother
officer guilty who was not guilty, and sentence
'hm to two months suspension at Gen. Hills
hddlng? Or was the charge false and mall
cjous and they not able to see it? Did not
Col, $ have fair trial and full opsortunitv
to defend himself? Away with such false.
Insulting charge against brave patriotic com.
mander, who freely laid his life upon the altar
Of State and of the great Southern cause in the
very beginning OF our struggle for independ-
cnce, and who was mainly instrumental in
winning the first great ctory over those who
would destroy aud enslaye US
The IT0qrfss may not have learned much
that Gen. Hill did for TIE defence Of the Dis
tricf, and vet he did here and in Hyde and at
Roanoke Island a great deal We are not sur
prsed, however, at the Ignorance of the Pre-
gre&s. he reason is patent to all who read
If Gen Hill had staid at Newbern all the time,
had petted the Pr0greSs and those who hate
their betters, and had labored assiduou<lv for
thelr defence to the neglect of the rest of the
District, he would have been, IN their estima-
ton, clever man, and great commander But
h1s noble soul had no cOngenality witt! such
spirits, and he felt it to be a duty to defend
some other places within its limits besides the
town OF Newbern.
We have felt it to be duty thus to defend
g brave and good man III has a6aence from the
nnp"ovoked, not to say low, cowardly attack
OF tho Progress Gen. IIl greatly endeared
himself to this community and the people OF
Hyde While among them. He lahorcd assid-
uousiy in our defences, and the Progress NAV
learn that he accomplished more than some
others to put Us in a state Of Defence The
people here would receive him back with open
arms. Would that the powers that be would
send him back in this the hour Of our need -
