The number ofliouses destroyedby it in the

10 o'clock, P. NJ, May 9, 1876.
Sir-I have the honor to report that I
marched with the main body OF the army
al 2 o'clock to-day having previously
thrown forward in body Of light infantry
into The forest which covers the Matamoras
road. When near Ihe spot where now
eucamped, NV advance discovered that
ravine crossing the road had beei occu-
pied by the enemy with artillery. ! i'm.
medialely ordered battery Of field srIil-
lery to. sweep the position, Aanking aud
sustaining it by the Sd, 4th, and 9Th regi-
ments, depleyedIas skirmishers TO the right
and left. A heavy fire Of artillery aud Of
musketry was kept up for. some time,
until finally the enemy.'s batteries were
carried in succession BY. squadron Of
dragons, ard the regiments nf infantry
that were ou the ground. He was soon
driven from his position, aud pursued by
a squdaoon Of dragons, battalion of arti.
llery, Sd infantry and a light battery, TO
the river. Our victory has been complete.
Eight pieces ofertilery, with greal quan
lity of ammunition, three standards, and
some one hundred prisoners, have been
taken; among the latter. Gen. La Vega, g.
several other officers. One general is un-
derstood to have been killed. The enc
my has recrossed the river, and | am sure
will not again moles. US on this bank.
The loss Of the enemy in killed has been
most severe. Our own has been very
heavy, and deeply regret 10 report That
Lieut.. Inse, Cd dragons, Lieut.. Coch-
rane, 4lh infantry, and Lieur. Claiborne,
9Th infaulry, were killed on the 6eld,-
Lieut.. Col. Payne, 4th artillery, Liout.

Gates, Selden, McClay, Burbank, and
Jordan, 9th infantry, were wounded. The
extent Of our loss in killed and wounded is
not yet ascertained, and is reserved for a
more detailed report.
The affair Of to-day may be regarded
as proper supplement 10 the cannonade
Of yesterday; and the two taken together,
exhibit the GOODNESS and gallanlry Of our
officers and men in the; most favorable

light. All have done their duly, aud done
ii nobly. 1t will be rny pride, in more
circumstantal report OF both actions, to
dwell upon particular Instances Of individ-
ual distinction.
1t affords me peculiar pleasure to report
that The field work opposite Matamoras has
sustained Itself handsomely during can
nonade and bombardment of l60 hours.
But the pleasure is alloyed with profound
regret at the loss Of its heroic and indom.
liable commander. Major Brown, who
died today from the effect Of shell. His
loss would be seve!e one to the service
at any time. bat in the army under my
orders, it is Indeed irrsparable. One Off

The casualties incident to this severe bonn
bardment.
