How many Monitor ships to take Charleston
A Civil War era dispatch argues that Charleston’s defenses are formidable and that only ironclads can breach the harbor. It questions how many monitors would be required, noting uncertain pilots, uncharted channels, and the risk of loss before reaching the city.
Six to eight Monitors Needed for Charleston Assault
The author argues that Charleston harbor cannot be attacked with fewer than six to eight Monitors. They warn of Monitors stranded ashore becoming Confederate assets, urge waiting for favorable timing, and stress rescuing public confidence while supporting President Lincoln. Three Monitors may capture the city, but others must reach Sumter and Moultrie safely.

Appeal to stragglers and absentees for return with pardon
The Fayetteville Observer urges Confederate soldiers who are absent or deserters to return at once. A private, distinguished officer endorses the appeal, warning that a single major success by the enemy could prolong the war, while urging sixty days of effort to secure peace. Missouri governor Reynolds announces sequestration and announces troops may return when the military position allows.

Touching romance of a faithful servant and captain’s death
A tale from Rockingham County recounts Captain Glenn and his loyal servant Mat who grew up together. During the Battle of Boonsboro Mat rushed to bury his master after a fatal wound and returned home with messages for the mistress and children. Mat fell ill and died February 4 1363, leaving a legacy of devotion and a wary critique of a “negro worshipper.” The piece ends with a post office department financial summary from the Richmond Whig.
