tion, marching down the main road toward Fort
Eric, keeping close alongside on the Buffalo and
Lake Iluron Railway.
"It was deemed certain that the main body of the in-
vaders under Col. O'Noill had evacuated Fort Eric, after
tearing up the railroad abut a mile above, and had started
for Chippewa, taking trio N,rth Western Railroad. Act-
ing on this supposition, the two battalions of regulars were
pushed forward in the direction of Fort brie as an advance
column, while the Volunteers, under the general command
of Col. Booker, protected their rear and kept open the line
of communication with Fort Colborne. On the arrival of
the advanco, of the leading column at Fert Erie, shortly
after daylight, it was found that the vnemy had evacuated
the place, but that instead of having marched for Chippewa
they had mado a feint movement in that direction, having

marched about four miles down tho Chippewa road, and

then striking into a cross road cut through the limestone
ridge road leading into Ridgway. Orders were then sent
back by the officer in command of the regular forces to Col.
Booker to hold his command well in hand and pro-
ceed to Ridgway, where he was to take up position on the
ridge, and act entirely on the defensive. Meanwhile the
advance column was to retrace their steps, and attack
O'Neill in his rear. Acting on these orders Colonel
Booker pushed forward, expecting to reach the ridge at
eight o'clock, which he did, but not in time to take pos-
session of the coveted position, for the enemy had reached
Hoffman's tavern just in time to seize the position before
the volunteers arrived. As the Queen's Own battalion de-
bouched into the plain, and were advancing towards the
position designated for them to occupy, they were suddenly
met by a scattering fire from a clump of low bushes, which
was soon found to bo the skirmish line of the force under
O'Neil. This upset all the preconcerted arrangements be-
tween the two columns of Canadian troops, and the Queen's
Own were compelled to take up a poor position behind a
fence exposed to a galling fire, the 13th Battalion advancing

rapidly to their support. All this time the enemy were con-
cealed in a small wood on the ridge. Before the volunteers
bad fairly formed an ensign belonging to the first company
of the Queen's Own was killed by the enemy's skirmishers.
The order for an advance was then given by Col. Booker,
when three distinct charges were made by the volun-
teers, each being repulsed by the enemy, who then came
out for the first time and chargedLupon the Canadians,
throwing them into considerable confusion, and causing the
order to retreat to be given. The invading force pursued
the Canadians about a mile, making, however, no decisive
demonstration. By this time the volunteers had reformed,
and fell back in good order on Port Colborne, the main body
reaching that place about half-past 11 o'clock.
The same messenger who carried Col. Booker his
orders also carried information from the officer in
command of the regular force to the effect that a
small body of Fenians were on au island in the
Niagara River, and were supposed to be fortifying.

Ile recommended that a tug be sent round from

Port Colborne, with whatever troops could be mus-

tered, and an attack made.
" His suggestion was acted upon, and tho Dunville Ar-
tillery, under Capt. Richard S. King, and the Port Col-

borne battery, Capt. L. M. Cullum, who were armed with

swords, bayonets, and muskets, were at onco despatched in
the tug Robb, when the vessel ran round the coast, land-

ing the forco about four miles below Fort Erie, on tho
Canadian bank of tho Niagara River. As soon as the com-

mand had disembarked they marched into the country,

mooting with no opposition. After a tiresome march of

nearly eight miles they came up with a straggling portion
_ _

of the enemy, who were engaged is plundering the coun-
try, and acting under the protection of an annexed force of
lonians. A spirited attack was made, which resulted in
the capture of 66 of the invaders, and the little band of

Canadians, numbering little over 90 men, immediately
. . . . . .

started for the tug with their prisoners. The guard of
Fenians, however, endeavoured tereseue their comrades

by making another attack, which was successfully repulsed,
and the affair would undoubtedly have proved a perfoct
success had not about 20 of the Canadians become detached
