First Attack on the Famous
Work.

BUTLER’S FUTILE ATTEMPT

 

This “'as in December, lSG4—The Powder
Ship Fiasco—Account of the Grand Naval
Bombnrdment—Admiral Porter’s Faith
in the Power of His Fleet.
Dec. 22': to 20, 1861, was the date of the first
attack on Fort Fisher, N. C. This famous
stronghold was located on the peninsula of
Federal Point, and was the largest earth-
work in the Confederacy. Previous to July,
“ 1802, the defenses of
the Confederacy at
this place had con-
sisted o f s o m 0
5111 all, detached
breastworks and
one inclosed bat-
tery, where four
guns were. mount-
ed. A new coni-
' niandant, Col. lVill-
. iam Lamb, was ap-
' ”pointed in 16:32. and
COL- WILLIAM he at once set to
work to construct an elaboz‘ .te system of
parapets and easements to slicker soldiers
and cannon during battle. ‘C'v'hen completed
,according to plan, the defenses would extend
four thousand feet along the sea front and
about fifteen hundred feet across the penin-
sula. The long sea face wasintcnded to guard
against an attack from the beach by columns
approaching in boats, and the land face
would defend against a column approaching
from the main land.

There was also a detached battery, Fort
Buchanan, located down at the point and
commandingr New Inlet, the channel to Cape
Fear river and the port of \Vilmington. The

,main parapet of Fort Fisher was twenty-five

feet thick and was soddcd at the outside with
marsh grass. The positions for the cannon
were protected by traverses, or side walls,
extending twelve feet above the parapet and
thirteen feet back from it, thus forming a
series of incloscd chambers having the three
exposed sides guarded. The traverses were
made of logs and bags of sand and were
proof against bombs. The interiors were
fitted up for magazines, and for quarters for
the soldiers of the garrison.

The land face had twenty guns in position,
and some distance out from the parapet there
was a line of torpedoes bur'ed in the sand,
with electric wires to the commander’s quar-
ters, to enable him to explode the murderous
nachincs whenever a hostile force should
venture to the works. On the sea face there
were twenty-four cannon in strong batteries,
and off shore was a system of sub-marine tor-
pedocs, connected with the fort by electric
wires. [The use of torpedoes as a. means of
defense for any position threatened with as-
sanlt is adm'ssiblc by the rules of warfare]

The space between the fort and the point
of the peninsula was a low, ride plain, sub-
merged during,r gales, and an assault from
that quarter ,was 1

not seriously dreaded.

The fort had not been completed when, in
1801', the Union authorities determined that
its capture was a. pressing military necessity.
After‘ihe closing of the port of Mobile by
Farragut in August of that year, lVilming-
ton, on Cape Fear river, just above Fort
Fisher, was almost the sole. depot for tralllc
between the Confederacy and the outside
world. During: the fifteen months from Oc-
tober, 18(3), to Dccumbcr, 186i, nearly 400
blockade r inning; attempts at this point were
anCessful, and only about fifty attempts
failed. There are two entrances from the
ocean to Cape Fear river, formed by Smith
Island, in the mouth of the river about
seven miles below Fort Fisher. The princi-
pal entrance for vessels of heavy draught is
through New Inlet. a channel along," the
shore of the peninsula of Federal Point. The
other channel, called the Old Inlet, is shal—
low and heavy gnnboats could not enter it,
and this made it c: “ ‘ light draught block-
ade runners to v the blockading fleet
off theinouthm _' z. ' Li' and escape. The
old channel was fit“.)l'03§9il by two forts, near
the mouth, Fort Czis Tell and Fort Johnson.
Fort Fisher was on the east side of Cape
Fear river, and on the was? lilo there was a
work known as Fort Anderson, designel to
lire at passing vessels should the Union lie-ct
pass Fort Fisher.

THE

NE'W IRONSIDES.

Some Confederates considered ”Wilmington
more inn.)(u'tunt than any other port, not ex—
cepting Charleston, and even of more value
to the life of the Confederacy than the pos-
session of Richmond. \Vith lVilmington and
the Cape Fear river open, the supplies that
would have reached the Confederate armies
would have enabled them to maintain the
contest for years. The blockade was a fail-
ure, and Fort Fisher, by its commanding
position and great strength, effectually barred
the way against the Union navy, and with-
out a naval armament in the harbor lVil-
mington, if taken by Union forces, could not
have been held. Fort Fisher was the key, for
it guarded lVilmington both from land and
naval attacks, and up to December, 1861, the
north made no serious attempt to close the
famous port by seizing the land defenses and
occupying the harbor. When, however,
Lee‘s army was at bay on James river, and it
was seen that a. nearby port was essential to
him to supply the munitions of war, IVil-
mington became an object, and the active
military and naval as well as the administra;
tive authorities began to plan for an attack.

Finally an idea, adopted by Gen. 13. F.
Butler and approved by the war and navy
departments, for a combined movement of
naval and land forces was authorized by Gen.
Grant, and Butler and Admiral D. D. Porter
were selected to lead. A feature of the at-
tack was the explosion of a floating mine of‘
a. couple of hundred tons of powder near
the walls of the fort, the expectation being
that the walls of sand and logs would be
jarred down by concussion, and the alarm
and confusion to follow would paralyze the
garrison, and a. prompt advance from all
points would enable the assailants to secure
the works. '

The floating mine consisted of an iron hull
propeller of 295 tons, the Louisiana, with a
{light upper deck specially prepared for the
work. The powder, amounting to 430,000
gpgunqs was placed in barrels and canvass
mags. through 69.911 0: which passed a fuse ar-

lraugedin four separate threads and termi— '

lusting at the sterri in a pile of combustibles.

 

 

The combustibles were 'to be fired by a. per-
cussion cap set off by clockwork, by sperma-
ceti candles, and a slow match.

The naval preparations were on the grand-
est scale, and it was intended to open on the
fort with hundreds of cannon, in case the ex-
plosion did not accomplish the destruction,
so that the land columns could advance with
prospect of success. The largest fleet that
had ever sailed under the American flag as-
sembled off the coast, led by the New Iron-
sides, a powerful ironclad, with sixteen guns
in broadside.‘ There were four other iron-
clads, .he Canonicus, the Mahopac, the Mo-
uadnock and the Saugus, and the screw frig-
ates Minnesota, Colorado and Wabash. The

remainder, to the number of fifty. consisted ,

of gunboats, sidewheelers, double-enders and
other steamers converted into warships. The
total amount was 01 Oguns. The land column
consisted of several thousand men, command
ed by (iron. Godfrey ll’eitzel. They were
brought up in transports and were to effect a
landing under cover of the guns of the ships.
The garrison of Fort Fisher at this time
nunbercd 1,500 men, 450 of them beingjunior
reserves. or local troops. -
‘ A FAILURE ALL AROUND.

Much was expected of the navy, because it
was found that there was seven feet of water
right on the beach. After several attempts
to have the transports with the troops and
the war vessels rendezvous at some point off
the fort, the navy alone weathered the gales
that blow for several days, and reached the
position on the night of the fZS-d of December.
About midnight the powder boat was placed

at anchor 2) ‘2: yards from the beach, opposite .

the fort. nndthc match was applied. At 1:40
the explo:.irms occurred. four in number. At
daylight the vessels stood in for the scene.
The fort was still there, grin and defiant, its
lief: floating proudly an no evidence of in-
jury visible. The transports with troops
were. not up, and Porter ordered the bom—
bardment to begi: . The Kew Ironsides led,
inking position in gallant style under fire
from several guns of the fort. The entire
ll *ct drew up in lines as detailed, and the tire
was directed with great deliberation upon
particular guns in the huge work. The fort
answered and fired (573 shots at the llco'. The
connnandor ordered the firing to cease, be-
cause his supply of ammunition was limited.
The navy, believing the enemy had been
silenced, withdrew. Many Confederate shells

struck the vessels, the Mackinaw having llCl"
boiler exploded by one, and the Osceola re-
ceiving one near her magazine that nearly

sank her.

 

INTERIOR OF roar FISHER.

Duringr the night of the 21th the transports
brought up the troops, and arrangements
were made to continue the bombardment on
the filth and follow it up liy'a land assault.
A column under Gen. Adelbcrt Amos was
formed on the sea coast, and advanced to with-
in half a mile of the fort, capturing an out-
work and some men. Go: . \l'eitzel went to

‘110 front in person and saw that the fort had

not been seriously injured, and repeated it
ii'npi'egiial.)lc. The“ navy kept up a steady
fire, and it was observed that the garrison
left the parapets where the shots struck. but
were out in full force at other points. \thr-

vcr the fire took clIeet the sand walls were
scooped out, leaving great gaps, so that there
was no longer a continuous line of shelter for
troops. Admiral I’ortcr says in his report: “I
suppose about 23,000 men (Union) landed,
when Iwas notiiied that they were rc-cni-
barking. Ieould see our soldiers near the
forts, rccommitcring and sharpshooting, and
was in hopes the assault was deemed practic-
able.

“Gen. ll’citzel was Inakin?> observations
about 000 yards off, and the troops were
in and around the worl-zs. One gallant OiIl-
cer, whose name I do not know [Liviut “'all—
ing, One Hundred and Forty-secoml New
York], went on the parapet and brought off
a. 111;: that we had knocked down. A sol—
dier went into the works (lines) and led out a

Another soldier tired his musket into
the bomb proof among: the rebels, and
eight or ten others who had ventured near
the forts were wounded by our shells. As
the a1 mnunition gave out, the vessels retired
from notion, and the ironclads and Minue-
sota, Colorado and Susquehanna were or-
deer to open rapidly, which they did with
‘uch effect that it seemed to tear the works
to pie c “’0 drew oil" at sunset, leaving
the ironclads to fire through the night, ex-
pugting the troops would attack again in the
morning, when we would commence again.”

The bombardment on the 533th lasted seven
hours, and the {3 re Was returned at intervals
by the 1? us of the fort, The Confederates
fired sh. hundred shots at the fleet and used
some grape and canister on the troops. Five
guns on the works were disabled by the naval
fire on the 335th. ' ln'cc had been disabled on
the 531th and one had burst, leaving, thirty—
four yet in position. The fort gave the part-
ing shots as the vessels were retiring. In the
two da l‘mmbm‘dmcnt the Confederates lost
six killed and fifty—live wounded.

Gen. Butler had learned from the prisoners
taken the. there wnsalarge land force of
Confederates, the division of Gen. Hoke from
Petersburg, on the peninsula. in rear of his
land column. On the night of the 25th he
notified Admiral Porter that he would sail
with his transport fleet to Hampton Roads.
Butler’s decision was final, although the ad—
niral stated that he .vas about to r~ceive
fresh ammunition and would fire much faster
than he had done, and hoped that Gen. But-
ler would leave a force on land to press the
assault.

The abandonment of 'he expedition was a
great blow to the hopes of the authorities.
In his memoirs Gen. Grant says: “Butler
was unchangeable. He got all his troops
aboard except Curtis’ brigade, and started
back. In doing this Butler made afearful
mistake. My instructions to him or to the
officer who went in command of the expedi—
tion were explicit in the statement that to
effect alanding would in itself be a great
victory, and if one should be effected, the
foothold must not be relinquished; on the
contrary, a regular siege of the fort must
be commenced, and, to guard against inter-
ference by reason of storms, supplies of pro-
visions must be laid in as soon as they could
be got on shore. But Gen. Butler seems to
have lost sight of this part of his instruc-
tions, and was back at Fort Monroe on the
28th.”

To the president Gen. Grant announced:
“The lVilmington expedition has proven a.
gross and culpable failure. * * * Delays
and free talk of the expedition enabled the
enemy to move troops to Wilmington to de-
feat it. After the expedition sailed from
Fort Monroe three days of fine weather Were
squandered, during which the enemy was
without a force to protect himself.”

Admiral Porter complained in his dispatches
to the navy department that he had been
abandoned by the .army just as the fort was

Only a part ol’ llrngg’s army had gone south,

rison to its uinlcrground shelter by the

The New lronsidcs. which \ li:‘—l‘i:ig;i"" c..
in this attack. was one of the first ironc..uls
of the war, and on amountol‘ the rapidity
of lcr construction wn called a “ninety day
guzboat.” She had a wooden hull covered
with iron plating four inches thick. She had
sixteen guns in broad and two pivot guns,
and was provided Will: a wrought iron beak

for ramming.

The :uval display as it appeared to the
Confederates was most forniidaolc. The
vutcrs on two sides of the peninsula were
alive with swaying; masts and sails, and the
bristling armament on board gave warning
of tlic desperate work that was at hand.
This continent had never before had so large
a fleet brought up for one attack. The Con-
federates, however, vcre confident that Cape
Fear river was secure so long as the land de-
fenses held out, for the channels were well
obstructed with sunken hulks and chains.
One of the obstructions placed here was the
old Arctic that Dr. Kane used in the Polar
seas while searching for Sir John Franklin.

The Confederate navy did not perform any
elllcicnt service in the defense of Cape Fear
river. The famous cruiser, Tallahassee, we.
in the harbor of IVihnington when Porter
was bombarding the fort, and during the
fire she ran out of the river past the blockade
on an eirand for supplies; for Lee's army.
The cruiser Chiclunnanga put ii to \Vilming—
ton just before lutleris attack, and got a.
load of coal. During the lighting; her crew
'21:: on shore and served batteries com-
l landing the channel, and the vessel was on
duty as a river picket.

As in the case of other important points,
the Union grovernnion t had many plans volun-
tccrcd for the capt—
ure of the portof
\Vilmingten. Early
in 1804 a citizen of
hasten, lir. Fri-d-
urick Kidder, who
had lived in lTil-
mington before the
war, presented to
Gen. llnriisilc a
plan for {-ur,
the place.

should be moved over the shallow sound cast
of l‘fihnin, ton, where the distance is only
txvelvc mats by land, to land an armed
force, which shmild march rapidly upon the
city. A column of cavalry was to move a
the same time from New Borne and come up
on the rear of Viilmington. In this way the
works at Federal Point and at the mouth of
Cape Fear river would be avoided, and if
the city should fall these would become use-
less and the Confederates would abandon
them. Gen. Burnside was at the time re-
cruiting in the east to fill up his Ninth corps,
and it was believed that the intention was to
send him to North Carolina with this force.
But when the lVildcrncss campaign was be-
gun by Gen. Grant, Burnside united his
troops with the Army of the Potomac, and
the Kidder plan was abandoned.

During tnc summer of 1804, Gen. Charles
K. Graham volunteered a plan, wnich was,
to move upon lVihnington with three col-
umns from three different points at once.
One body of picked cavalry was to go out
from New Borne and cut all the railroads
leading; out of the city. Another, to be
transported over the waters of the sounds on
the east to within twelve miles, should strike
the city proper, and a force of infantry and
light artillery should land on the west side of

in the rear of the Confederate defenses on
that side and attack the city in concert with
the cavalry coming across from the sounds.
This plan like that of Kidder aimed to avoid
contact with the formidable Fort Fisher,
and this, too, was ebandoned for that of the
combined land and naval attack on the great
stronghold itself, a more difficult task, but
destined to be accomplished shortly after the
failure of December.
