our only means Of transportation was
one scow and metallic boat Of little Of
no service. We landed under q steep
bank. 100 feet high, covered with rocks
and jungle. 8 13'it3C ~ CE5l
Scrambling up the bank, we found an
open field Of six acres, with thick woods
on three sides. ont of which came q
constant, irregular firing from the ene-
my. tEfft5
Here were Col. Devins' 18th Massa-
chusetts Regiment on the right in line at
the edge OF the woods, having been
driven in after proceeding mile and q
half toward Leesburg. We formed on
the left. and presently advanced two
companies Of skirmishers to the woods
in front. The concealed enemy drove
them back with a heavy. telling volIey.
and followed the regular with an irregu-
lar firing. Our men fell on their bellies
under the brow Of the hill, the enemy
not being in sight. The artillery could
not be served, because the gunners we're
not to be found.
Capt. Stewart Of Gen. Stones staff
came with a message to Col. Baker TO
hold his ground, as Gen. German, with
5000 men, was marching from Ed
wards Ferry to re-enforce him. One
company was advanced to the left, the
direction from which Gen. German was
expected. They were met by a yell
and volley as before, and fell back to
the line. The hidden enemy now ap-
peared to be in force on three sides Of
US. which, with the river at their back,
disheartened the men.
The line officers Of the Massachusetts
Regiment ordered their companies to
retreat. and the enemy coming out Of
the woods for the first time in sight,
general confusion ensued. The men,
running to the waters edge and finding
no boats, rallied. ran up the hill, dis
charged two volleys. when an officer of
the Massachusetts Fifteenth tied white
handkerchief to his sword. The ene-
my ceased firing and took prisoners
Many escaped into the woods. Some
swan for the island, others found small
skiffs. Among them many of the
wounded.
Soon after Capt. Stewart's appear
ance, Colonel Baker. who was, during
the whole engagement. perfectly cool
and brave, on foot, cheering and lead
ing on the men, was shot from the
wood, several balls making fatal
wounds, and all believed to have been
shot from one revolver. The rebel
who shot him ran out in his shirt sleeves,
followed by four or FIVE others. As
they approached the body Capt. Devins.
Bieral Of the Twenty second. and Ward
the pugilist. with ten men of his COM
pany, rushed forward, shot the killer,
and drove away the rest.
Capt. Young bore the body from the
field.
Three hundred and twenty of the
first battalion, the only one in the en-
gagement OF Bakers regiment, were
missing at 10 this morning; of two
companies OF the Tammsny regiment
engaged there were 100 missing; Of
600 Of the Massachusetts regiment, at
least half were missing yesterday
There was about L., 700 in all engaged.
Gen. Banks crossed at Edwards Fer
ry at 5 o'clock yesterday, and joined !
5000 Of his command already on the
other side. There was fighting at that
hour, with cavalry, infantry and artil-
lery engaged. The firing had ceased !
at O'Clock. with no result.
