and cleaned out his fowl house. They got

was located just under his window and as
Capt. May heard nothing at all during

SATURDAY, MAY 5,
Under Fire at Charleston.
Tiie Raleigh Observer has a very inter
esting correspondence from Newhern,
giving a roster of the names of the North
Carolina officers and soldiers who were
held under fire in Charleston harbor in
August, 18G4. As a matter of interest to
-the people of this section and as some
thing worthy of being placed on record
for future reference, we publish here the
remarks of the Observer's correspondent
as well as the entire list. He says: .
On the 20th of August, 1864, six enlist
ed men and about six hundred (600) offi
cers of the Confederate army, prisoners of
war, were removed from Fort Delaware,
where they had been confined, and were
sent by the United j States authorities to
Morris' Island, S. C, then occupied by
Federal forces engaged in their 1 abortive
siege of Charleston. From Hilton Head
S. C, where the prisoners arrived August
23lh, 1864, forty of their number,disabled
by wounds or disease, were sent to the
hospital at Beaufort, S. C. The remainder
landed on Morns Island, September 7,
where they were placed in stockade under
fire of the guns of the defences of Charles
ton harbor, remaining there until October
Jlst, 1864, when they were transferred to
ort rulaski, Ga. Oh the 4th of March,
looo, such ot them! as could be moved
were embarked in very sad plight for Fort
Delaware, arriving there via Hampton
itoaus, March l'4th:
I send you a roster of the North Caro
liuians, who were of the party, which is
compiled from memorada made at the
time by Cap t. John L. Cant well, Co. "F,"
u a. C Infantry, himself one of the pris
oners. -
, It may be said of these men even more
appropriately than of that other famous
Six Hundred of jTcnnyson, and with but
slight alteration; of His text, that
,1
"Marched the Six Hundred
These could ! have, in their equally
deadly peril, nono of the enthusiasm', the
maddening excitement that sustained men
in the charge at Balaklava, but were com
pelled to wait day by day and face a
death, not to bo shunned, that friendly
uns, whose hre might not be withheld,
hourly threatened. I).
