MIR; Lovejoy asked MIR. Fouke of Illinois what
was done with the negroc that led them into
an ambuscade? MIR. Fouke replied that he sent
out scout who brought him in, and the TACT
was reported to Gen. Mcclellan. He didn't
know what had become of him. He had no
time to look after negroes. If his colleague
pald less attention to negroes and more to the
interests OF the country, we would get along
much better. Much applause]

FROM FORT PICKENs,

private letter received at New York, from
on board the steamer Richmond which took part
nitho fight at Fort Pickeus, dated Nov. 23d,
states that that vessel commenced bombarding
Fort McRae at 10 clock On the ed
The writer says he had been complimentipg
the Captain of one Of the guns, on the accura-
cy of his aim, when shell bounced through
our bulwal ks and took his head off, and wound-
ed six more men. This shell, on exploding,
raised the ship out of the water and made her
stagger like u drunken man. Another shell
burst six feet below the water line, causing a
bad leak, but the steam pumps kept the vessel
free.
The firing continued all day and was resumed
by the enemy the next morning, when the
Richmond moved Out of range. The frigate
Niagara still kept at them, but being outside Of
the bar she was not much injured. Fort Pick
ems had, up to date lost but one man killed,
and seven wounded Fort McRae is much dam
aged, but we cannot destroy it with our smooth
bore guns, as they are no match for the cnemy's
riaed cannon. The bonbardmont was to be
renewed the next day, the 24th with the de
termination to whip or be whipped.
