Official Despatch.

OH Roanoke Island,Feb.9,62. j
Roanoke Island is ours. Its military
authorities struck to as yesterday. Their
means of defence were truly formidable,
and they were nsed with a determination
worthy of a better cause. Tbey consisted
of two elaborately constrneted works
mounting together twenty-two heavy guns,
three of them being hundred pounder ri
fles; four other batteries mounting to-
j -'J 6. Urge proportion of
them being also of large calibre, and some
of them rifled ; eight steamers, mounting
two guns escb, and each having a rifled
gun with the diameter of a thirty-two
( nonnddr; a nrolonped obstruction of annk-
r i - r o
en vessels and piles to thwart our advance;
and altogether a body of men numbering
scarcely less than five thousand, of whom
three thousand are now onr prisoners.
Tbe fighting commenced on tbe morning
of tbe 7th inst., at about 11 o'clock, and
was continued until dark. The following
morning it was resumed at an early hoar,
and it lasted nntil well in the afternoon,
when by a bold charge of onr army tbe
rebel flig was made to succumb, aiid onr

Your efforts yesterday, and the day be

and congratulate you upon the result
achieved. No commander-in-chief could

The way tbe true positions of true men
are sometimes vindicated, is encouraging
to those who often suffer under persistent
misrepresentation and prejudicial false
hoods. But a few months ago, Abraham
Lincoln was industriously villified, by a
malignant party ia this country, as a crazy
fanatic, and as everything else that was
bad ; but a few months of trial has proven
bim to be one of the wisest and most con
servative of statesmen ; and tbosa who
were busy in misrepresenting bim, are
compelled, by his noble position, to hold
their peace or join eulogising his integrity
and patriotism. But this is not all : Sena
tor Sumner, who has been held up to the
people as a monster of evil, is now foond
co-operating with Abraham Lincoln in his
conservative policy, and ia the acknow
ledged leader of tbe President's friends in
tbe U. 8. Senate. This ia all n simple
vindication of Truth at l Justice. When
tbe Buchanan and Breekenridge sentiment
ruled tho country, conservatism was made
to mean devotion lo slavery propagandisaa.
A oy one wbo was eppoeed to the dominion
of slavery over the whole country, was a
fanatic ! But, thank Heaven, that has
changed now, and things are called by
Ibeir right names. Lebanon Courier.
