following dispatch, dated near Farming
ton, was received at headquarters:
ga reconnaissance sent toward Farm
ington found the enemy, 4,50o strong,
with four pieces of artillery and some

road track, and destroyed two bridges
We have a good many prisoners, but

The Surrender of Fort Macon.


NEW YORK, May 8.
A spe cial to the Tribune, giving aa
account of the capture of Fort Macon,
says the fire of our batteries dismounted
thirteen guns, and tore up the glacis
and ramparts in the mest effective man
ner.
Of 1.t0e shot and shell thrown by
them at the fort, $50 struck the works.
The gums of the fort were worked with
skill aud courage, but the sand hills of
our position afforded complete protec-
tion to the men.
The hoisting of the white flag was
greeted by a conference of General
Park, and suspension of hostilities
until the following morning.
During the night the proposition to
surrender was communicated to General
Burnside, and in the morning articles ct
agreement were signed.
The garrison surrendered as prisoners
of war, were released on parole,e and
were allowed to take their private effects
with them. The officers retained their
side arms.
| These were the terms originally pro
posed by General Park, but refused by
Colonel White, commander of the fort
| The surrender of Fort Macon gives
Gen. Burnside port of entry, with Sc
cure anchorage for his heaviest vessels
1t gives the Government another Of
the stolen Notifications, with so guns
20, 900 lbs. of powder, shot and she'll in
proportion, 400 stand of arms, large
store of provisions; 430 prisoners, and
80 horses.
1t releases portion of the blockadine
feet for services elsewhere, and insures
the retention of this district.
General Burnside, in general order
eongratulating General Park on his vic
tory, commands that the name of For
Macon be inscribed on the colors of tn.
Fourth and Fifth Rhode Island Regi
ment.
The command cf the fort was Offered
to Captain Lewis @. Morris, First Ar
tillery, after the surrender, but he de
clined, and Col. Roaman, of the Fourti

Bg Fremont's prompt measures fo


suppressing guerilla warfare in West
ern Virginia has had, says the Wheel
ing Entelligencer, the happiest effect
Nothing better shows this than the
proceedings of some of the meetings re-
Gently got up out in Marion and Taylor
Counties. A couple of guerillas were
killed out there some three weeks ago
by U. S. volunteers, and it was given
ont that unless their devilmeDt was
brought to an end, the quiet secession
ists-those who believed in the warfare,
but did not personally engage in it
would be held responsible. What was
the result? Why. that men who, a
year ago, wouldn't stand 'coerci N at
all, and who have ever since been fed on
the mildest sort of constitutional
Union doctrine, with hope Of con-
verting them, because it was feared that
plain truth and direct dealing might
render them desperate and more de-
termined in their treason, as soon as
ever it became certain that they were
responsible for crimes they had long ap-
proved and connived at, instead of TAX
ing to the woods and caves, and re en-
acting Rob Roy or Rhoderick Dhu,
fastened to their towns, and got up
Union meetings, and adopted resolu
| tions pledging themselves 10 do all in
their power to bring this unnatural war
to an end, and promising assistance to
the u. S. officers aud soldiers whenever
called on to aid in its suppression. Men
who had been rebels ever since the re-
bellion were put in motion, went to
their loyal neighbors whom they hadn' t
spoken to for year, and solicited them
to get up meetings at which they might
have the opportunity to make these
pledges. Such were the effects in that
i region of Il little wholesome administra-
tion of the argument of force, and the
earnest threats Of more if needed. 1t
accomplished in few days what ICON
ciliation'' had failed to reach after an
application of many months.
