Evacuation of Beaufort, NJ

Immediately after the occupation of New

ted for Beaufort, N. c.
The victory at Newbern placed Genera
Burnside S forces in the rear of Fort Macon

one of the strongest casemated Notifications
on the whole coast, so far as an attack from
the sea side is concerned.
The rebel troops in it anticipating an
attack from Burnside's army, which was
at Newbern to pay their respects to it, took
time by the forelock, burned the pirate
steamer Nashville, which was lying al
anchor under the protection of its
guns, blew up the forts magazine, disabled
and destroyed all its guns, &C., that they
could not carry off in their panic, and made
clean evacuation of it.
AS the fort is casemated, and otherwise
very strongly built one, 1t is not believed
here that they have been able to do any
considerable damage to the work.

He commenced by avowing himself an
Aholitionist and Disunionist. Persons in

eggs and stones at him. MANY Of which lit
him. The kissing was kept up for some
time.
Finally Phillips made hi,aself heard,
and he proceeded until something again
Objectionable was said when the storm of
eggs was renewed. The aim, in mary cases,
was good. Still Phillips persevered, and a
third time was Kissed, and third time
egged and stoned.

PUBLIC FEELING AT RICHMOND.- The
Richmond correspondent of the New
Orleans Crescent writes:
"Iou will naturally desire to know how
the people Of the Confederate metropolis
stand these trying times-for it is evident
that we are not safe in the days of light draft
gunboats and high water. | answer, in the
main, we stand it very well. Some, to be
sure, are down heartcd, and nobody wears
as broad grin as they did the day after the
battle Of Lecsburg. Still there is univer-
sal determination to do or die--to 90 down,
if need be, with our harness on, warning
like brave people to the last. | passed
General Wigfal on my return from dinner,
and asked him if there was any news
No. said he, don't believe we have
been whipped since dinner expect though,
to hear of another defeat in the next five
minutes
Somehow ] cant help thinking of Hal
leck's assertion by telegraph to Mcclellan
that the Union flag is on the soil of Ten
nessee, never to be removed This is brag,
but the Yankees have, up to this time, stuck
like leeches wherever they have effected a
landing. They intench themselves, and at
the first spade full of earth thrown up by
them, our generals give right up and say all
is lost They have attacked us repeated in
trenches and forts, and carried the latter
invariably while we, with the exception of
the St. Nicholas affair and few others, have
not done daring thing through the whole
war. Another noticeable thing between
the Yankees and ourselves is that they
follow up their victories, while we squat
down in our tracks the moment battle is
ended. This is shameful fact, which
disheartens me more than anything else
| have no hope now i'll anybody but God
and >Beauregard."

DISTRESSING SUICIDE.-Thc whole city
was astonished on Saturday evening, at the
melancholy intelligence that William F..
O'Danial, Esq, one of our most enterprising
citizens and heavy property holders, had
committed suicide. No one knows the
cause of the sad affair. We learn that he
had been somewhat indispose for few
days, but no seriousi illness was apprehended.
as nearly every third man has been more or
less disturbed by colds consequent upon the
inclement weather at this season. He had
been absent from the midst of his family
but short time, when he was sought for by
his wife who found him upon the floor in a
pool of blood.
Physicians were called in but it was found
that life had taken wing. An inquest was
held by the coroner during the evening
when a verdict was rendered that deceased
came to his death by his own hand.
He was moral, upright man, and for
many years connected with Trinity Church.
He rarely refused to do Kind act for a
neighbor Or friend when it was in his
power.
He has left wife, an interesting family
and an extensive circle Of friends to mourn
the irreparabe loss of kind and affection
