Da" 3 Fort Usher Ira I n. 1 We clip the following from the Raleigh Farmer and Mechanic. It i3 interest ing. It contradicts very plainly two of Gen. Brag's assertions, derived, by the way, front Federal stragglers aud Federal reports. It gees to prove that the enemy did not enter the Fort without resiitiiiice and that the defence was one of the most gallant on record in this or any other era of the world's htstory-w The following u the article alluded to. It . is an "official re port, writtenut the time by oue who was present and who participate iahe en gagement and wbojtraa, fnrthertr.ore, Bear Gen. Whiting daring the fight: Ho'qks. 3d Military District, 'January 17, 1865 To Lieut-Col. Anderson, A. A. G m. On the morning of the 13th inst., at about 3 o'clock, tho enemy open ed on the fort with the Ironsides, and doable and three single . turreted moni tors, concentrating their whole fire on the land face, keeping up a regular fire upon it till 5 p. m. At this hoar three in gates, 'Colorado Minnesota and Wabash (as supposed) came into actios, and con tinued a terrific fire till 6 o'clock p. m Col. Lamb, anticipating an assault, made repeated application to Major-General Whiting for reinforcements. The only forces available were those of the navy manning Fort Buchanan, sixty in all, which were willingly furnished by Cap tain Chapman, Confederate States navy. Six companies were brought from the forts below at 8 o'clock en the morning of the 14th instant. Daring the night the gunners and troops 1 of the garrison were manning the palisades, a general at tack being anticipated our guns keep ing np a fire, covering the land ap proaches, at intervals daring the entire night Major-General Whiting, accom panied by myself, was also on the works and beach the gi eater portion of the night, keeping jwateh on the enemy's movements. On the morning of the 14th instant the enemy again opened on the land face, the rest of the fleet, seventy two in all, forming in two lines of battle. Fifteen of these moved into position and joined in the action, keeping up a terrific fire daring the whole day and succeeding night,ldi8maatlinr every gun on the land face, one eigm inca voium?iaa aione ex ceDted. Our ffuos replied with great ao. curacy, but with little effect, the wooden vessels remaining out of range, and our shot making but slight impression en the ironclads, as far as we could judge, the gunners displaying the greatest gal lantrv under the most terrific fire. The enemy had also advanced a line of sharpshooters, wnt naa suns nne pits, and annoyed the men! serving the guns by keeping up a constant fire. The dis mounted guns could not be remounted d urine the night nor could the works be repaired, owing to the constant and heavy firing kept np by the enemy's fleet during tne enure niguu xl teicgiu iwtiuk wcu received from the commanding General that BrigadierGeneral Hagood's brigade had been sent to reinforce us, I was or dered to await their arrival at Fort Buchanan. About 4:30 on the 15th the first of these regiments, the Twenty-first, arrived, and ahortlv afterwards the Tweity-fiftb, under command OfCaptains Dubose and Oarsen respectively.' The Twente-first regiment I at once moved up to Fort Fisher. The other was moved to the rear of the Mound Battery for shelter from the enemy's fire, which at the time was awful. It moved up to Fort Fisher later in the day. About fifty-two" ships having joined tho monitors at 8 o'clock, they concentra ted their fire without any cessation, at intervals, on differeart portions of the works. Daring the morning of the 15th aid the preceding night the enemy land ed, the assaulting column supposed and as confirmed by a prisonerj to number 10,t9t men. These were formed in three lins across the meek of land covered by a heavy line of skirmishers, about 400 yards in front of the ra un body, and at a distance of about 1,000 yards from the fort On th's force we brought to bear our one available gun and three mortars which had been mounted daring the night, and these repeatedly broke Jheir line and temporarily checked the . ad vance. As the attacking column advanced a part of the fleet moved in single line, in succession, ahead of the skirmish line, thus enfilading the entire land face of the work, whilst the remainder of the fleet in their original position kept up a murderous fire on nearly erery part of the fort Under corer of the dense smoke a brig ade was moved from the enemy's left niAnir the beach, the tide being low, and succeeded in getting within the palisade line before they were seen, but were in stantly repulsed twice and driven from their position - with heavy loss. Corres ponding with the movement a heavy force nf thA enemv nnder cover of tho woods moved upon our left to get possession cfj the first-gun chamber, laieui uaioain, of Capt Adams' Light Battery, was sta tioned with two guns at a point com manding the causeway leading to the palisade line, fthe palisade itself having been destroyed by the enemy's fire), with orders to run his guns Into position as soon as the fire of the fleet had slacken ed. What occurred at that period on the left of the line I am unable to stale, be ing myselt engaged on the right, and the first intimation I had of the enemy's approach vis by ctrisj their fi plant- ed on the third traverse. As soon as discovered all the uvailab force was led to repulse this attack by Major-General .Whiting in person, bat it tailed in dislodging the enemy frooa the position occupied, and at this poiatl have, with much regret, to state Major-General Whiting was seriously woundt-d and was carried from the fi Id.

I was then ordered by Major-General Whitiiig to communicate with the general couvnand ing, hich I immediately attempted to do. as he is awn re. 1 have also to add that the garrison, though in good heart, were sadly worn out by the hard work they were called upon to perform by day and night, but that a feeling of much disappointment existed; that the long hoped tor co opera tion from the forces outside the fort, which they expected would have tieea rendered, tailed iham in the hour of need.

Sidbury, formerly of this city and a brother of Mr. Jobn Sid- bury, died suddenly at the Hot Springs, in Arkansas, on the 17th inst. 1 The de ceased was raised in this city and served an apprenticeship under Mr. R. B. Wood. He had many friends here who will be pained to hear of his death. ' At the clote of the war Mr. Sidbury moved to Corpus Cristi, Texas, and embarked in the lumber business and has resided in that town up to the time of his death at Hot Springs, where he was on a visit. His remains were interred in Corpus Cristi. He had met with much success in his adopted home and was known as the "Lumber King." It is said he left an estate worth $300,000. He had been married for a number of years but his union had never been blessed with chil dren. It is said that Mr. Sid bury died intestate. A Kind Ilearted Act A newspaper certainly accomplishes good in more ways than one. Our refer ence on Thursday to the poor destitute woman and her little babe living on Fifth street, beyond the railroad, has caused $5 to be sent to Captain Brock for the sick woman's benefit, from a firm always noted for their benevolent acd charitable actions whichareonly exceed ed by the very modest and unostenta- tions way in which these gentlemen gen erally make their donatioas. Captain Brock has invested the amount in a most judicious manner for the sick woman's benefit. But this amount, though lib eral enough from one source, will not last very long and we hope others will come to the suffering one's relief also. . The LTils that Attend Success. Success generally creates envy envy begets hatred hatred gives place to malice malice prompts mischief, and so the baneful list goes on, followed by crime and wrong doing. The Louisiana State Lottery, established by the highest authority, meets with no exception to this rule. Its success, induced by integ rity and honesty in its management, with liberality and charity, have caused to spring up iu New Yoik opponents who try to circulate all kinds of false re ports as to its permanence and abilitj to redeem its promises. Let erery one who has a lingering doubt write to M A. Dauphin, New Orleans, La , to estab lish the truth that all that is promised will ho perfonaed. - 27, 1881 NO. 202 1 he stoim The whirlwind which was mentioned on Tuesday laat as prevailing at St. Thomas, W. I., has reached us at hst. Gen. 'Hazeo, the Chief Signal Officer, tells us iu the official bulletin issued this forenoon thit it has pursued a North westerly course and this morning entered the South Carolina Coast. The wind then shilttd towards the North and was soon felt on the North Carolina Coast Early this morniug , the barometer at Charleston, S. C, was 20 58 inches, a fall of .37 of an inch in twenty four hours The maximum velocity of the wind reported at Charleston was 48 miles, blowing from the East, and at Smithville.50 miles, from the Northeast 1 Telegraphic communication along the North Carolina coast was interrupted by the storm. Cautionary signals were dis played all along the coast as far North as Sandy, Hook and the shipping were cautioned against the approach of the storm. Jn this city Mr. McCann. the Signal Observer, personally visited all of those interested and informed them of the near vicinity of ihe storm. The advices from Smithville are to the eflect that the blow was very severe at that point. At 7:20 a. m., the wind had reached a velocity of 50 miles an hVur, Ihe sea was the highest known for years, and was reported as breaking over Oak Island in the rear of Fort Caswell. The tugs were compelled to leave their wharves and seek safe anchorage further up the river. At Wrightsville Sound, seven miles from the city, the storm has been very severe. iThe sea was very high and is said to have reached the Banks House, i At Masonboro the waves of the sea washed in some places clear across the banks. . In this city the wind has been blowing by starts fiercely throughout the day. It has been accompanied by very heavy rains, which, by the way, fell nearly all night long.! The water in tho river lias been backed up by the wind, but it is not near as high as we have known it. Neith er has the storm been ot unusur.1 severity in this locality, that is to say, ve have Known it to blow much harder here There are no damages, to report herea bouts, so far as we have yet been able to ascertain. i The steamship Benefactor, borrnd for New York, is at Smithville, and has not' attempted to go to sea. There is no com munication with the shore and if she at tempts to go to sea the Signal officer at Smithville will endeavor sto communicate with her by signals and warn Capt. Tri bon pf the full extent of his danger There is no probability, however, that this will be necessary. There are no disasters reported as yet, and we trust that there have been none to report. 1 To Builders and others Go to Jaco bi's for Sash, Blinds and Boors, Glas3, fcc.
