Burnside captures New Bern in bold march southward
News from the Neuse River describes Gen Burnside's forces landing near Swan Creek and pushing along the river to New Bern. Rebels abandon entrenched earthworks after fierce combat, with Union troops crossing the Trent by river to secure the city and drive rebel forces toward the railroad hub at Goldsboro. The attack yields several hundred casualties and captures more than thirty cannons, while civilians aid in preventing a town fire set by retreating Confederates.
