THE SPEED OF THE MoNIroR.-The
information has gained ground that the
Merrimac is superior in point of speed to
the Monitor, and that if the former chose
she could run past her and 20 TO sea-
This, / am assured, is an entire mistake.
The speed of the Merrimac is not over
five knots an hour, whilst that of the
Monitor is about seven. On putting the
question to one of the gunners as to their
relative speed, and the ability of the Mer-
rimac TO run away from the Monitor, he
replied I'VE would like to ZEE her at
tempt it. She would then be at our mer-
cy, and by following close in her wake, we
could soon cripple, ifpot destroy her rud-
der and propeller A more enthusias-
tic and confident set of men never manned
a ship, and they all express an anxiety
that they will soon have another opportu-
nifty to meet her.-Cor. Baltimore Ameri-
can.

FERNANDINA, FLoRIDA.-Fernandina is
the first seaport of any importance after
leaving Savannah. 1t is near the entrance
Of st. Mary's River, the boundary between
Georgia and Florida. The entrance is by a
channel between Cumberland and Amelia
Islands. with fourteen feet of water on the
bar. The town is a small place, of about two
thousand inhabitants, near the northeastern
end OF Amelia Island. 1t is the Atlantic ter
minous OF railroad, $50 miles in length,
running across the entire State of Florida.
The railroad makes the town a commercial
point Of interest.
The entrance to the harbor is mot easy in
storms and the Ferdinand bar is historical
for its wrecks. The privateer jeff Davis
came TO grief of this entrance.
The productions Of the region are rice and
corn with a small quantity Of cotton and su-
gar.
st. Mary's which is also in our possession,
is small town in Georgia, at the mouth of
the st. Maryis River

THURSDAY MORNING, MARCH 20.
THE NEWS.

We give cur readers good news again
this morning. Our telegrsphic columns yes,
terdsy contained the announcement of anoth.
er Federal victory in Arkansas, and the cap
ture of Island No. 10 in the Mississippi, and
now we have tidings of an important success
to our arms on the Atlantic coast.
Gen. Burnside, it seems, for whose safety
some spprehensions have been felt for the
past few days, has "turned up" in Newbers,
N. c., and that rebel stronghold is ours.
In addition 10 this, we have dispatches-of
an important character from the West, Civ
ing particulars of the recent fight in Salem,
Ark, between Union force sent out by Gen
Halleck, under Col Wood, and largely su-
perior body of rebels, which resulted in the
utter rout of the latter, the Federals killing
about 100 of the enemy and taking many
prisoners, among them three Colonies. Our
less in the engagement is stated to be about
fifty
Newbern, N. c., is considered point of
much strategic importance, and the news Of
its capture by the brave forces under Gen.
Burnsdes command will be hailed with ioy
by all who are anxiously yet hopefully wait
ing for the time which shall bring the dis
eomfture Of traitors and the end of rebellion.
The battle there; though of comparatively
short duration, is represented to have been
one OF the most desperate of the war thus
far. The rebels were driven out of all their
positions, losing three large batteries of FIELD
artillery, Is heavy siege guns, large stores
OF ammunition, three thousand stand of
small arms, besides some 200 of their number
Is prisoners.
Thus every day. almost orlno. us news of
fresh triumphs of IN tne armies Of the Union.
The kingdom Of rebeldom is gradually but
surely pssrrowing down." Every day that
huge Anaconda" OF which so much has been
'.id, is tightening his folds and getting ready
to give the 6nsl squeeze to treason and rebel
lion.

The predictions or the praises of Mr..
Russell, of the London Times, do not
amount to much of late. He is about

is that our people care as to what he says

Letter from Roanoke Island.
GENERAL HosPITAL, % BRIGADE, !
Roanoke Island, Feb. 2S, 1852, {
Yours in hope Of success,

GENERAL HosPITAL, ID BRIGADE,
Roanoke Island, Feb. 2S, 1852.
EDITOR, HERALD From the fact that
this letter is dated at the General Hospital
you are not to infer that have leg or an
arm amputated or broken. l am merely de-
tailed as ward-master to attend to the wants
OF the wounded in this place. One poor fel-
low by my side lying on bis buuk, h as bot b
legs amputated; they were struck by can
ester shot and shockingly mangled, but the
brave man before the battle is the same brave
man after the sad calamity; hardly mur-
mur do we hear from him. On the left of
this man lies young man some eighteen
years old, with the right leg amputated below
the knee. On the right of this man is an
elderly man with his lett leg amputated. In
front of the three lies a young man who had
bis left leg amputated to-day, after suffer-
ing several days with the hopes OF saving the
limb. He was bit by shell. This Hospital
is for the wounded alone. We have fort "
seven wounded here, among whom is one
Captain, one Sergeantfve Corporals, and the
remainder are privates. They are from the
Massachusetts 7lst regiment, the New York
6lst, and the 9th New Jersey. We have lost
five since we came into this building, making
the whole number 81, the 21st Massachusetts
regiment loosing three out of the FIVE. Il
seems very strange to me that more were not
killed and wounded under the terrible fire of
the enemy from their masked batteries.
Ore of the Georgia soldiers told me after
the surrender, that their orders we're to give
no quarters nor receive none, but fight to the
death. What contrast. Our orders in this
respect, was that when quarter was asked to
give it. Before this you have probably heard
OF the naval forces taking possession Of Eliz-
abeth city, therefore ] will say nothing about
that affair. have so many calls from the
poor wounded fellows, that cannot write
more than three minutes at a time without
hearing the call Of Mr.. - want nv
wounds wet, may the nurses put some cold |
water on them 2" l hear another call and |
must close.
Hoping to be in Vermont next July to see |
the friends, I am

IHE TRAITOR RUcHANAN.-Captain
Frank Buchanan, of the Merrimac, was
grandson of Gov. Mexican, of Penns Viva
mia. On the marriage of his mother to
DR.. buchanan, of Nd, she removed TO
Baltimore, where all her children were
born. On the Inauguration of President
Lincoln, Captain Frank Buchanan held
the responsible post of commander of the
Washington Navy Yard, and was sur
r,uuded by nest of young Southern Off
GERS. On the day the Massachusetts Re-
giment was attacked in Baltimore, Bu-
chanan and his newly iedged scRR.irl-law
sent in their designations and Immediate
ly left the city. He chartered large
omnibus with four horses, and slowing
away his family, made for Baltimore, and
thence by boats sailed to the Eastern
Shore, where be had farm.
Finding Maryland did not secedc. he
sent piteous appeal to the Secretary of
the Navy to be restored to his com .nand,
but his application was spurnsd by the
President. After spending few months
In that State he sought employment in
the Secession kingdom, and was received
with open 'arms.-Boston Post

WILL SUMMED Up,-rhe veteran editor
OF the National lntrlligencer says that as he
has not finished his military education, nor
been appointed on he committee on the con-
duct OF the war, he does not assume 10 pro.
nounce any authoritative" opinions. But,
as illustrative OF the various views prevalent,
he quotes irom two New York contemporaries ?,
one of which claims that the rebels have re-
Gently made three successful retreats. and
the other maintains that our forces have
been successful in ,ompelling these retreats.
The editor then well says:
five had any opinion to express at all
in the premises, We should say that there is
measure of truth and justice in each of
these representations and the chief detect
consists IN regardin, the one as exclusive of
the other. For retreat, the escape fom
Bowling Green, Columbus and Manassas, was
undoubtedly in each case success, but Il was
none the less a retreat compelled ty the su.
pelior force or skill Of the Union armies If
the strategy which may be justly praised for
bringing about this result bad also succeeded
in capturinga large portion of the retreating
insurgents and their munitions of war, that
strategy would have certainly been more for
tuna e precisely in proportion as the snemy's
retreat might have been made less successful"
