The Daily Dispatch: May 3, 1864., [Electronic resource], From the Peninsula.--the enemy Landing at West Point. (search)
The shooting Cass. --Granville Montelle, charged with shooting Susan Hill, a free negro, near Glenn & Davis's brickyard, on Friday night last, was yesterday called before the Mayor to answer the offence. The wounded party was not in Court, her condition being too critical to permit her to appear. The following is a summary of the evidence elicited: --Gilman, sworn.--Was standing in Susan Hill's yard on Friday night last, when Montelle passed by me and went into the house where Susan was; soon after heard one report of a pistol, and in a second or two after another. Simultaneous with the second report Susan ran out of the door into the yard and disappeared around the house. Montelle then came out, and jumping into a buggy which was standing at the gate rode off. He had a pistol in his hand. There was with him when he first drove up another man, whose name I do not know; he did not go in the house. I did not go into the house at all, nor did I inquire of Montelle anythi

nd conduct of our commanders, and on the incomparable soldiers whom it is their privilege to lead. A naval attack on Mobile was so successfully repulsed at the outer works that the attempt was abandoned, aad the nine months siege of Charleston has been practically suspended, leaving that noble city and its fortresses imperishable monuments to the skill and fortitude of its defenders. The armies in Northern Georgia and in Northern Virginia still oppose, with unshaken front, a formidable barrier to the progress of the invader; and our generals, armies, and people, are animated by cheerful confidence. Let us, then, while resolute in devoting all our energies to securing the realization of the bright auspices which encourage us, not forget that our humble and most grateful thanks are due to Him, without whose guidance and protecting care, all human effort are of no avail, and to whose interposition are due the manifold successes with which we have been cheered. Jefferson Davis.

ed during the night, and artillery put in position on them. The report of this deserter was evidently not intended to deceive; but he had mistaken Bragg's movements. It was afterwards ascertained that one division of Buckners corps had gone to join Longstreet, and a second division of the same corps had started, but was brought back in consequence of our attack. The first day's Contest. On the night of the 23d of November Sherman, with three divisions or his army, strengthened by Davis's division of Thomas's, which had been stationed along on the north side of the river, convenient to where the crossing was to be effected, was ready for operations at an hour sufficiently early to secure the south bank of the river just below the mouth of South Chickamauga. By dawn of day the pontoons in North Chickamauga were loaded with thirty armed men each, who floated quietly past the enemy's pickets, landed, and captured all but one of the guard--twenty in number — before the enemy w
