THE FORTIFIcATIONs OF nLTeN head.
oeETRABAEDs AT woRE.

It is certainly very amusing to observe
these contrabands engaged at what in a
measure, has been misnamed "WOrk." n
order to transport bale of hay distance of
from twenty 10 thirty yards it taxes about
eighteen or twenty laborers-men and boys
who perform the operation somewhere in
the neighborhoOd of twenty minutes First,
one will give it turn over, roll his body on
it drOp. down on his elbows and have quiet
grin for several seconds. Thea it will be
passed to the next one, who proves to be a
perfect genius in the art OF imitation; and
SO on it goes through the whole gang. At
times the gangs will suddenly grow small
and beautifully less in consequence Of some
Of the laborers having decided to sause
themselves a Ia HeeRan, others having start
ed of on foot races, and more resolved on
getting up sn imprOmptu circus.
Just about this juncture a sergeant may be
seen re-eOllecting the scapegoats BY dint of
resort to summary expedients and q very
powerful use of his lungs. Not unfreouent-
ly Mr.. Contraband is made aware of the fact
that there is an "all seeing" eye, by having
brick pass his legs with considerable rapldity
at distance rather too close for personal
comfort. When ! describe how a bale of
hay is unloaded, the description viii serve as
q very safe criterion by which to Judge the
manner in which every thing elss isremoved
and stored away. 1t is not unusual to see
half dozen negroes wheeling hand-cart
generally with nothing in it; a ceal cart
backed up in g heap of lumber almost of
the dock, or into some other cart OF wagon,
rather than where it is wanted; eight or
all, --off
while the same number are engaged in warm
ing t9eir feet or dancing q jig; little ebonies
nuriahing Tor some nOtability in the hope Of
getnng penny nom passing officer; more
little blacks playing soldier, sosmpering after
band Of music, or throwing dust and
wenches staggering, grinning, and caperinR
6y the roadside OF eoquetting With their
fellows.

Items from Port Royal.
THE REBELS BURNING COTTON,

LaE REBELS hNlNd NOEIENs
Four days before the Vanderbilt sailed, a
guyl-boat went up one of the rivers in the
vicinity of Port Royal, and remained over
night. On the passage up vast quantities of
cotton we're discovered stored ready for GIN
ming. The gun-boat penetrated for several
miles. No rebels were discovered, but on
the return, the cotton which had been no
ticed was found on fire; and as FIR as could
be seen in all directors, dense smoke rose in
clouds, indicating that an organized effort to
burn all the cotton, and probably other prop
erty, had been made. The rebels, it is
thought, were under the impression that the
vessel had come for the purpose Of sei-ing it.
However, not a single white man vas seen.
The reconnoisances have revealed the fact
that vast quantities of cotton are stored upon
the numerous small creeks and inlets, within
easy reach Of our forces. It is, in nearly all
cases, ready for ginning.
THE FORTIFICATIoNs OF HILTON ERAD.
Nearly the entire force of Gen. Sherman
yet remains on Hilton Head Island. The
entertainments in progress are rep:dly ap.
preaching completion. They begin on the
mainland side of the island, a mile and
half from Fort Walker, and are about three
miles in length. The works consist of a
ditch, with a breastwork, and viii, when
completed, entirely protect the island from
any attack which could be made from the
mainland. The work is performed under the
superintendent of Capt. Gilmore, oS the
Engineer Corps, formerly stationed on Gov
ernor's Island.
The improvements heretofore rsoo-ted as
in progress at Hilton Head are going on ez-
peditiously. Roads are building; and the
wharf, when the carpenters and laborers TO
be sent from this city arrive, will soon be
completed.

Col. James E. fressEns
MrssRs, EpIroRs: 1t was my good fortune to
ha an the battlefield Of Manassas q few DAYS
after the ever memorable Sunday, the 2lst,
md learned from cye.witnesses an incident in
~relot;on to the above named gentleman that
orrht TO be known. For noble daring, courage.
md promptncss, I venture the assertion, It'll
not surpassed by any one in the annals of
modern warfare. After the charge, in which
that regiment freely participated, which re-
suited in the capture Of Sherman's battery.
and putting to flight the enemy, tho 4.h Viz.
giuis Regiment commanded BY Col. Preston,
were rapidly pursuing the enemy, and in some
disorder. Such was the ardo. OF his command
that they could not be kept in line. "A
division Of our army, known by Col. Preston
to DO friends, were seen to his left, and from
Their position, were preparing to Gre upon his
regiment, installing them for the enemy re.
treating In disorder. Col. Preston Immediately
ordered his men to halt and form their line, and,
rs not a moment was to be lost in hesitation, he
exclaimed at the top Of his voice, to stand still
and that he "would sacrifice himself to save
them" instantly putting the spurs to his horse,
ran at the top Of his speed to inform that d.
vision who he was, expecting to be literally
riddled with bullets. But as God would have
it, they withheld their fire until he appraised
them who he was, thus saving his regiment
from q most destructive fire.
When impartial history has recorded all the
events Of that glorious battle. the names of.
Col. James F. Preston, Major Joseph F. Kent
and Capt. William Terry, will be read and adj.
mired in its pages. whilst the history ofbattles
is read.
