majority Of them were placid and serene, and
looked as though they tlumbercd. Two lying
h,side the picket tent, one a sccessionist, and
the other n ZOuave, attracted my attention.
From th,ir position tho rebel must have ap-

None Of the bodies were mangled or dis

was shot down and then fesrfully giu,hcd with

Captain Bradford the secession captain who
led the left wing, WAS, happily for us Killed in

PROSPECTS or A uoMnARDMENr
1t was rumorod that, Immediately after tho
FIGHT Fort Pickens would open her guns on
on the Navy Yard, but from the scarcity of men.
and the absence oi ships to cooperate, il wa.

| Fearing that the enemy would commence the
attack, Col. Brown determined TO erect breast
works between Us and the fort, running from
he Lincoln to the Totem batteries. This has
been accom- lishcd, and an immense body of
