COM. LOCKWOOD'S OFFICIAL REPORT.
CM1TII) STAT** r*OP*l.I K? D.O'U<iHT, )
ULtrroKT Hahuok, April 27, 18C2. j
Am?I km the honor to report that, on the 25 th inat..
Mr batten** on ahore being in position, Are was opened
about si* A. M. on Fort Macon. On its being reported I
got under way and (teamed toward th* other blockading
weeaela, making signals for them to get under way, to
prepare for action and form in lin* ahead. When witbin
range, as near aa the shoals allowed us to approach, the
Daylight opened Are, followed in succession by the State i
?f Georgia,Commander James F. Armstrong; the gun
fcoat Chippewa, Lieutenant Cemmanding A. Bryson, and
the bark Gemsbok, Acting Lieutenant Edward Cavendy.
The three steaaaers kept undor way, steaming around
la a circle, delivering their Are as they came
within range at a mile and a quarter distant from th^
fort. The hark anchored after firing a number of rounds
ef shot and shell. Fnding that the sea, from a southwest
wind blowing on shore, caused the Tassels to roll so
quick and deep aa to render our guns almoet unmanage
able to ear range and the aoooMcy of our aim. I re
tactaatly withdrew after being engaged about an hour
and a quarter, hoping that the wind and sea would sub
side eu as to euab:* us to renew ear firing in the after
noon; and the more readily adopted that course aa we
did not contemplate to be continuously engaged, but oc
aaaionallr open Are on the enemy, whom wo expected
would hold out for several days. The wind and aea in
areaaing rendered the renewal of the engagement Imprac
ticable that afternoon by the gunboats. Toward evening
? fiag of truce waa displayed rrom the fort, which paaaed
Into our poasesaion the following morning, and we hear,
fitly cheered the reappearance of our old flag over the
naparta of Port Macon, about ten o'clock, April 26,1802.
On entering the fort I had aa interview with Major
General Burnaide.and we Jointly signed the la rata of ea
pitualatioa on the part of the United Btatea force*. We
expended nearly one-half of ear fifteen-second fused
shelia, and, I am happy to aay, with good effect; and our
time of attack waa must opportune, as we drew the fire
ef the enemy from an important land battery, which
enabled eur force* to repair damages camaed by the con
?entrated lire thereon. The Ore of the enemy on the
v*eeela from guns of greater range was excellent. Their
ahot and shell fek around us In every direction. Many
flood line shota peased just over and beyond us as we
succeasively passed their line of (Ire, and we were ex
ceedingly fortunate in receiving eo little damage. Tlie
Daylight waa atruck by an eight-inch solid shot on the
a tar board quarter, below the *)>ar deck, pasaing through
several bulkheads and the deck b*low, to the opposite
aide of the vessel in the engine room, about six inches
above the machinery, among which it dropred. A
?plinter fractured the small bone of the right fore
arm ef Acting Third Assistant Engineer Eugene J. W*de,
and I am happy to state that this was the only casualty
that occurred.
I am informed that eur forces on shore had one killed
nnd two wounded, and that the enemy had eight killed
and twenty wounded It is rema. kable that so i.npor
tant a victory abould have been achieved with -o little
Ions of life, particularly as the interior of the fort was
literally covered with the fragments of bombs and shelia
and many of their gun* disabled.
I herewith enoloae the reporta of the several cora
mandera, and it givea me great pleaaure to commend the
gallantry of all.

THE SURRENDER.

run up over on# of the guns. Soon after, two of the rebel
?Ulcers waraa?ea son, in g out of tba fort, boarlDg with
tbem a flag of truce. They advanced towards tba bat
tsries, and aa they approached, Captain Pell, of General
Burnside's staff, end Liautauant Hill, of General Parke *
staff, west out to mewl them. They Introduced them
selves as CapUins Pool and Gulon, and stated that they
had come from Colonal White in order to And out upon
what terms the fort could be surrendered. The massage |
?ai conveyed at one* to General Parke, who replied that
Ifca only urma npon which be could accept the surrender
of the fort wer# unconditional, bat that their Inquiry
Should be at once despatched to General Bumai lat
who might make an arrangement differing somewha1
from that demanded by him. As the night waa near*
-and darkneae already settling over everything, farther
parley waa poetponed, and the meesage waa signalled
?vsr, by lights, to Beaufort: "Colonel Whit* desires to
know upon what terms he can surrender the fort.'*
Horsemen were instantly in readiness to convey the mes
sage to General Burnside, who wss on board the Alice
Price,some little distance up the North river, and the
consequence waa that the next morning at an early bour
the Alice Price waa sees coming down the river, and
beading In towards the fort. Another interview took
place between Colonel White and General Burnside, on
board the Alice Price, during which interview the full
arrangements fortbe surrender of Fort Macon were en
tered Id to. The General and the Colonel, after being to*
got her for some little time, left the cabin of the Price, and
getticg late the General's boat, In company with
General Parke and Captains Biggs and King proeeeded
to tbe fort. As the small boat left the side of the
steamer It was generally noticed that Colonel White waa
greatly depreooed. ft'pon entering the boat he placod bis
hands upon hts fac*. and loaning forward appeared to be
mentally unstrung. It waa some minutes before he
raised bis eyee, and wh?a be did so there waa aa expree

The procession, u H niovsd along tba edge of the shore?
with tba bright, new banner of the Union flapping its
folds, as if in defiance of the rebel flag, which was still
lloailng over the fort, p'esented a very pleating sight.
Coming to the southerly slope of the fort the column
filed to the left, and, rounding the edge of the green
sward, entered the sally port. Ascending to tb? ram
parts the battalion marched once around the fort, with
the banner still before them. The companies were then
told off to their respective places, and the ceremouy of
taking possession bad ended, with the exception of
HAC-UKO DOWH TUB REBEL FLAO.
This was soon performed; the halyards were loosed, and
the bunting came to the ground. It was given into the
possession of Major Wright, who intends adding it to the
collection of trophies in the legislature of Rhode Island.
It was made out of the old flag of the garrison, with the
stars withdrawn to suit the number of revolted States.
A second flsg had been lying in an obscure part or tba
fort; it was hunted np and brought to light, adjusted to
the halyards, and in a briefer time than I can narrate the
fact it went flying to the top.

m accordance with the orders of Geieral Burnside, the
elevation of the colors was forbidden to be attended with
any demonstration by the soMiars, though, as they ex
pressed it themselves, they did want to " scream,"
aad vary loudly at that. But from across the water
came three tremendous cheers. Beaufort had emptied
itself upon its wharves, and when the troops and Union
ists saw the Stars and Stripes at the top of the flagstaff
they vented their feelings in one grand uproar of joy.

of railroad iron laid slanting from th<-teraiiUues to the

make * demonstration on a body of rebels above Eliza
beth City, who bad collected there to make a stand
against the rumored advance of General Rurnside and all
his forces upon the rear of Norfolk. The troopa which
left here were the Twenty flrat Massachusetts and Fifty,
flrit Pennsylvania regiments. They proceeded in ?te.un.
ers to Hoaaoke Island, where I bey were joined by detach

and Sixth New Hampshire, nuking la all a force of about
2,600 men.
They laaded a little above Elisabeth Pity late on Friday

resistance, and then marched nearly twenty miles up the
river, the gunboats accompanying and shelling out the
woods in the advance. Early la the taornlng they
encountered and engaged a strong fores of the enemy,
who, with well built intrenebmenta, disputed any
further progress. Our forces were Immediately
disposed to attack the centre and right and
letl flanks af tbair position, and a severe
engagement ensued. The rebel po?lti<? wss not
far from the little villages of Csmden and South Mills,
and in ths rsar of an open space in the woods, through
which the read runs in a line parallel with and dleUnt
about three miles from the river. The Sixth New Hamp
shire tied to thaleft, and, traversing the woods, steadily
advanced upon the enemy's right* while the Ninth New
York, Eighty-ninth New York, Twenty frst Masgachu
aetts aad Fifty first Pennsylvania 'tallied to the right,
and skirted around the edge of the woods, with a view o1
flanking them on their left. Durlug their progress they
kept up a harassing cross Are. which compiled the
relieis to fall back a short distancs The Hawkins Zou

manned by the 1/outSlaaa ''Wild Cats," npeaed aaud<lau

Our troop* prepared to encamp on the battle (round
foi the night, when it was observed that the rebels were
rectiring strong reinforcements by steamers which
ratine down the rivor from Norfolk. Aa it was not the
Id entlon of the expedition to undertake a general on
gi genient, bat merely to make a reconnaissance, it was
dtemed mo?t prudent to retire, and the regiments with
drew to the beats and returned to Roanoke Island, hav
i ag accomplished the feat of marching over forty miles
la twenty-four hours. Owing to the fatigue many of the
flieu fell out of tlio ranks before and after the buttle, part
of whom are. no doubt, enumerated in the list of missing.
During the enp^zement, Adjutont Gadfcn, Ninth New

Captain Graham, Captain Htmtnlll ant Lieutenants Bar

Our total loss in killed, wounded and missing is one
hundred and tweuty-seven, principally in the Ninth
New York. Four ambulance wagons only hid been pro
vided, so that all the wounded could not be removed,
and about ten were left behind. Assistant burgeon
Warren, of the Twenty-first Massachusetts, nobly re
mained in charge of them, with a flag of truce.
Fourteen prisoners were made, including a captain of
the Georgia Third regiment, Colonel Wright, who stated
that the rebel loss was between sixty and seventy in
killed and wounded. Niue dead rebels were burled by
our troops on the battle field.
The forces of the enemy consisted principally Of
Georgia regiments, several companies of cavalry, and
the liOiiisiana "Wild Cats," who worked the battery of
four guns.

A* the Yaukees have succeeded in thotr pur|<ose or

similar a' eupt < n Mobile with a view of the capluie of thut

of their success in (Missing the defences below Mobile,
they may venture as tar up the Alabama river as it is
navigable for their gunboats.
Our ?"th Titles have doubtless done all they could to
render M bile and ihe mouths of the river secure against
attack; but as at New Orleans and other points the tor
tilleai ioi.s were not Buttle ent to obstruct their |unsafe,
it is not impo-'ibu that the Yankee* may meoeed informing
their way pa* the defnees. Shell Id they do this, unlets
tlie river in so obstructed that they cannot navigate it,
they would be quite likely to push on to Montgomery.
we hope tliemay never hi iibie to |>ei'etrato so far In

an agent of the French g< v rnment is in this city, authorized
to puichare an ind-hnue "mnu? of co-'Um.
The de-igns are evl t*utly this: Th;.agent Is to purchase
a la ge supi l.v of cotton, and then, In case of a ih-eaieooii
Yankee occupation ol ihu city, he wo^ld hoist theF, euch
flag over it to p-eveut It from being destroyed by our
authorities at d the citizens. With Montyimery and
the Alubatn i w.r in the hards of the 1'anktes, arultlu

supply of cotton aullxieut to meet their requirements,
England and Kianco woi.ld lose all their interost in the
American question, and l.iucolfi would no longer. be
troubled with fear s of a foreign Intervention.
It is dou tless a very nice arrangement on the part of
those who wish to relieve themselves from a very disa
greeable dilemma; but ux can assure tie French agent and
all oth-rt that the ?? heme won't work. The question con
cerning the protection of foreign flags baa alrea ly toen

[Krom the Norfolk Day Book, May 1.]
The B mthern 4nows s;fcl c ntlnies uncertain, but
enough is known to prepare the public mind for dUaster
aad revei s -. Let us then a ldres* ourselves to the cco
tem illation of this melancholy fact as man and patriots.
Let as consider the di-aster with fortitude and discuss
the result with dispassionate calmness.
In doing this we t annot attempt, as soma of o ir con
temporaries hare done, to Judge the action* of General
Lovoll. We dare njt, In candor, pronounce against his
course of ac ion until we have his official report before
us. In the ai sai.ee of that we undertake to say in his
?Indication that this ooorse was, ee far as we are In
formed, the on y ons loft for him to adopt.
In Uiep.esent state of public opinion we era aware
that thia opinion will be challenged, and yet, when tha
first sharp paroxysm ts over, the people must aeo that
for him to l*ve remained in the city would have been to
provoke its desuui i io. .
How far hu Is rcsp >nsible for tha passage of gunboats
by the for.s b low is another question upon which no
judgment can bi intelligently formed with our limited
iniorinatioii. Tne act of evacuating the city was una
Cestui ry seq ester upon the a rrlval of tbefoderalsh.ps,
for tenantry cannot light men-of-war. By this movement
ho leaves room Tor the municipal authorities and rorolgn
residents to pro. est against th< destruction or the city?a
result which m st have necessarily followed upon Its
continued occupat ion by our troops.
The reasons bilny?und an awful one it la?was incur
red, not by the t vacuation of Naw Orleans, but by tha
government, in leaving the river so that tho enemy'a
fleet could pass ihe btileries so as to assail the town.
Thin is an instructive and costly les on, and comes ss *
most happy illustration of the truth ot our frequent
predictions of los-is on the coast. We can only dcfa.id
our navigable sti e tics and h irhors by obstructions.
