half-past one O'Clock the steamer Resolute
was ordered from Acqua Creek to Matthias
Point, for the purpose of reconnoitering
Seeing a battery filed with barrels on shore
just below the point, boat was sent from the
Resolute with six men to bring off the batteau.
No sooner had the boat reached the beach
than a volley of musket balls was opened upon
them from a secession force concealed in the
woods, killing three men instantly, namely
John James Fuller, of Brooklyn, masters
mate, who, it was subsequently ascertained,
was pierced by ten balls, George Seymour,
captain of the gun, of New York, by seven
balls; and Thomas Duly, of Boston, by two
balls. Earnest Walters, a native of England
is wounded on the head-it is feared fatally.
Another voly was fired by the enemy as they
moved their position or as soon as they had
time to reload. The Resolute was about sew
en- hundred yards from the shore and fired in
the midst of the rebels one shot of canister
and nine of scrapnell, with, it is thought, ex-
tensivo havoc, while other reports are positive
to this effect. The scene aboard the small
boat is described as heart sickening. The
dead lying stretched out in it covered with
their own blood. The boat was towed short
distance from the shore by one of the crew
named Sanderson, who quietly slipped into
the water for that purpose, and thus conceal
ed himself from the enemy. The other unin-
jured man it is said lay in the boat stupified
by the scene through which he had Just pass
ed, while the wounded man helped Sanderson
to row the boat toward the Resolute, from
which assistance was Immediately rendered
The enemy congratulated themselves that
they had killed the entire boats crew.

There are several interesting deductions to
be drawn from these tables In the first place
the actual white population of the fifteen slave
states, between the ages of eighteen and forty
five years, is shown TO be only trifle 0 er a
million and half of souls 1 ,655, 000) while
the free states nineteen in number) show an
aggregate Of very nearly four millions (3,778,.

and Ohio Showing respectively a white male
population OF 77S 900 600 5Sl 900 and 46S-
000) erceed the entire aolite male population of all
the SLdUe states. Three states against fifteen is
pretty fair exhibit, suggesting the question
Where will the slave states find sufficient
force OF volunteers to prosecute this war
against the Union?
