WAR NEWS.

The Northern papers and dispatches give
details of the engagement near Dranesville,
on Friday last. Fire was first opened by
the Confederates with their artillery, which
was responded to by the Federal battery.
The infantry soon became engaged, and a
very close conflict ensued, the lines of both
armies sometimes being within sixty yards
distance of each other. The Federal loss is
seven killed and sixty.four wounded, some
dangerously. Gen. Ord, who commanded
in the battle, is Marylander, and his bri-
gade consisted of the 9th, 9th. 10th, and
10Th regiments of the Pennsylvania reserve
corps; the Bucktall Rifles; Easton's battery
of ten 24-pounders, and two l2-pound howit-
zers, and detachment of artillery from
Col. Bayard's regiment; altogether it is sta
ted numbering between four and five thous-
and men. The Confederates are supposed
to have had an equal number on the field
Col. Thomas Taylor, of the Confederates,
commanding the Kentucky Rifles, is suppo.
sed to be among the killed. The accounts
vary as to the number of Confederates re-
ported to be killed-some say from forty to
sixty. r8 z.s59l
The cannonading at Falling Waters. four
miles below Williamsport, and at dam No.

We have intelligence from Port Royal to

heavy firing was heard in the direction of

feet, destined for Savannah, had returned
to Hilton Head after losing five of their
number, which were driven ashore on bee
Island. No further movement of troops at
Beaufort had been reported. Cotton pick
ing is still going on. Sickness, to quite an
alarming extent, prevails among the troops
at Port Royal, eighty deaths having occurred
in the command since it's departure from
