et, so they took the boat up the creek about a half mile, and, discovering the enemy right abreast of them, pulled the ring out of the boat and made through the marsh for the woods. During the exchange of shots between the enemy and our steamers, they returned to the beach to witness the result. Two of the crew, alluded to above, strayed from the rest, and were heard to hail one of the Federal steamers and to give other signals to come ashore; the rest having no weapons, save one pistol, then repaired to Doyal's place on the southern end of the Island, where they made a fire and remained till morning. On Tuesday, about 2 o'clock, they went to the middle settlement, where, finding an old batten, two of the party were sent to Ossiltouis in search of a larger boat.

Warsaw Island (Georgia, United States) (search for this): article 11
The missing boat at Warsaw Island. --The Savannah Republican gives the following particulars concerning the safe arrival of the crew of the missing boat from the Confederate fleet: On Wednesday evening our citizens were relieved of their anxiety for the safety of the party who left the Confederate fleet on Monday morning in a small sail boat, to reconnoitre the movements of the Federal steamers on the entrance of Warsaw. They all, excepting two of the crew, (one a Western and the other a Northern man,) who deserted to the enemy, have safely reached the city. On reaching Warsaw Monday morning, the party went ashore at Miller's Creek and walked about a mile on the beach, to note the movements of the steamers, which were about four miles off, when, finding them steering in, they started back for their boat. Wind and tide being ahead, it was useless for them to attempt to return to the fleet, so they took the boat up the creek about a half mile, and, discovering the ene

Terry (search for this): article 12
Selling himself Dearly. --The Bowling Green correspondent of the Nashville Banner writes: In the recent engagement near Woodsonville, in which Col. Terry while bravely leading his men to a charge was killed, the son of that gentleman was engaged, and by the side of his father when he felt. Col. Terry fired twelve shots, killing five Hessians before the fatal ball struck him, entering on the right side of the face near the chin, and coming out at the back part of the head.

Wise (search for this): article 12
following extract: The real truth is that a handful of men only assisted in the capture, and the only artillery mounted to attack the Yard were three insignificant guns on the opposite side of the river. Had the Federal officers known the actual condition of affairs, they could have blown Norfolk into atoms, and for weeks defied any force brought against them at that time. I have been informed — a fact of which I was not before aware — that had it not been for the imprudence of ex-Governor Wise in speaking too openly of our plan to make the capture, while traveling hither on the cars, and thus revealing to a Lieutenant in citizen's dress who was en route to the Yard to report himself, we should have bagged the whole bevy of officers, and secured the place without any loss of property. Fortune favored us, however, as it was. The wind shifted during the conflagration, and blew the flames back to their starting point; the powder refused to ignite; and the brave efforts of the No

The Norfolk Navy-Yard --The Reason Why the Officers in Command were not Captured. --"Personnel," the witty and intelligent correspondent of the Charleston Courier, who has recently been on a visit to Norfolk, communicates to that paper some interesting facts with regard to the capture of the Gosport Navy-Yard.
