Elias R. Norc,oss.

1t is with feelings of sorrow and regret, that
we record the death of Mr.. Elias B. Norcross,
a native OF the State of Maine, who Jeff the
home of his youth in the year 1852, for the
far West, where he turned his attention to ag-
ricultural pursuits, and was also Register of
Deeds, in the town OF Marmiton, Bourbon Co.,
Kansas, where he lived, and by his strictly
temperate habits, gained a comfortable live
lihood. The future looked bright to him, and
he fully expected to realize all he anticipated.
Z But seeing the danger that was threatening
his adopted state by the raid OF Pope, Marina
duke and Cabel, he volunteered with small
force to guard the town of Fort Scott, where
he contracted the fever, and was obliged to
return home, and on the 29th of Nov. 1854, he
bid adieu to earthly scenes and friends, and
passed quietly away. He leaves family and
large circle of relatives to mourn his loss !;
also brother in this city. His letters to his
friends in this state were full of patriotic
sentiments, and in the last letter he wrote, he
expressed the following words: 81 am in
fauor of making the ,oar permanent in
stitutaon until the South Wiu Surrender them
selues and their pet Institutions"
Thus has passed away another true patriot,
and it is our blessed consolation to know that
God accepts the sacrifice and to Him we will
commend the aged parents, and the large
circle OF afflicted ones. M.

Falstaff Hardee.

Since the commencement of the rebellion
we have heard much Of new system of mill
tary tactics introduced by the rebel General
Hardee. We have just had demonstration
by the author, Of the wonderful superiority of
this system over all others in his defence of
the city of Savannah. When summoned by
Gen. Sherman TO surrender the city, he re-
pled-"That as his communications were yet
open and his men fully supplied with subsist-
ence stores of every kind, he was able to stand
a long siege, and he was determined to hold
the city to the last moment and defend its cit
zens and property which had been placed I'M
der his protection, until overpowered and com
PEELED to surrender" From this reply it was
expected that the battle between him and
Gen. Sherman would be like the battle be-
tween e5 500 -stlegssa ssital ss &
1.-THE Kilkenny cats VIII fought in the vale, y
Till naught was there left but the tip ends Of their
tails"
When night came on, Falstaff Hardee de-
serted the city and ran away with his army
without firing gun. His system Of tactics
seems to consist in the idea conveyed in the
following touch of the sublime: ~
He who don't fight, but runs away,
May live to run another day. -. = r
No doubt the citizens of Savannah are re-
joiced to get rid of such a cowardly defender.

LAND AGENTS REPoRT.-We have receiv-
ed from Hon. Isaac R. Clark, Land Agent,
copy of his report for the year ending Nov.
30, 1854 It shows some falling off in the sale
of the public lands during the past year.
Eighty-four THOUSAND two hundred and ninety
SIX acres were disposed of in all. OF these
81 ,3l5 we're sold for cash and cash securities,
81, 709 under resolves of the legislature, 1856
acres of settling lands upon surrender of con-
tracts for the performance of settling duties,
and 1928 contracted by land certificates.
The amount conveyed under resolves OF the
legislature includes 1900 acres, two quarter
townships, given to Waterville College, and
% 900 acres, one quarter township, to four
academies in the State. The donation Of two
townships to Bates College, and one-half
township each to the Maine Wesleyan Semi
nary and Female College at Kents Hill, Read
field, and Westbrook Seminary, are not includ-
cd in the above, as they have not yet been
sold.
The Land Agent has paid into the State
treasury, over and above all expenses, the
sum of SIS ,505.30.
Mr.. Clark dwels at length on the misfor-
tunes winch have attended the Settlers in the
Aroostook county where our public lands
principally lie. The war, into the spirit of
which the hardy pioneers entered with zeal,
drew great proportion of them away from
their new homes and arrested the progress of
Improvement. Droughts and fires have DESC
lated their farms and burned their homes
Yet they are not discouraged, but set AT WORK

work OF the hostile elements. There is sill,
feeble tide of immigration which might be
vastly increased in volume and power by a
judicious dissemination of facts regarding the
value of our lands for agricultural purposes.

The Assault on Fort Fisher.

The correspondent OF a metropolitan paper,
writing from the "U. s. steamer Susquehanna,
off Wilmington, N. c." after describing the
attack upon Fort Fisher, and the positions
occupied by the principal vessels in the feet,
thus refers to his own vessel and what occur
red on board her.: sa.9 gao
"The Susquehanna from her inviting pos
ition, receives the benefit of this waking up
and becomes special target. She is struck
five times in few minutes, and many shots
pass through her rigging and over her decks.
Yet. miracle of mercy not man is struck or
even scratched. Men who are neither particu-
larly reverential nor religious, declared that it
seemed as If the shots were turned away from
us. The fort is on fire in several places and
an explosion takes place, resembling that of
small magazine. But why have not the troops
made the assault? As we learn later, the
skirmish line has advanced to within eight
hundred ieet Of the fort, and an officer stole up
and picked up the flag which the feet in firing
had knocked away. Another is said to have
got a horse, aud still another a mule; after
which they retire and pronounce the fort i'm
pregnable to assault. s. ..sssI rrlssl5s

by those who have fought against both. But
it can only be kno,on to be impregnable after
an attempt has been made to take it. The
simple fact that only one fourth the troops
were landed, would seem, in absence of ex-
PLANTATION, to indicate a want of purpose and
determination to try.
The loss in the fleet the second day was lit

of Mr.. Lincoln, our neighbor would not, proba-
bly, have deemed it worth contradicting in his
own columns, for has readers would need no such
contradiction But we should have been none

we waited for such contradiction before setting
the matter right with our readers. That's all.
