FRolI PENSACOLA.

NEW YORK, Dec. u.
A letter from Key West of the 9th inst,
states that their Pensacola dates are of the
26th ult.
1t appears that the rebel steamers have
been'plying between the navy yard and the
town, constantly carrying guns, munitions,
SO.
Col Brown notified Bragg that be should
fire on them, to which Bragg replied ''ire
away" On the morning of the 2lst the
steamers again appeared. Col. Brown dis
abled one, the other escaped. A general
oannonade then took place between Pickens
and Fort Baraneas, the Niagara and Rich
mond opening on Fort MoRae end several
water batteries. The engagement lasted
nearly two whole days. McRae was
siIenced, and also the water batteries in
reach Of the Richmond's guns. No person
was injured aboard the Niagara. James
Cook WAS the person killed .on the Rich
mond. Both vessels we're slightly damaged
in their upper works. Piokens had not
even sand bag displaced by Barancas'
fire.
On the oath, while removing fuse from
shell it exploded, killing five men and
WOunding many others.
Col. Brown sa.s he has BaraDcss COM
pletely Of his mercy, and is awaiting rein
foroements to hold the forts when be shall
take them.
Another letter slates that one of Wilson's
Zouaves was killed and another wounded on
the 22d. About $500 guns were fred in
the two days. 4eaal ~.
At 3 o'clock P. n. of the 23d, Warrington
was set on FIRE by our guns, and that place
and nearly all the Navy Yard destroyed.
The steamer Times was disabled at the frs.
sbot. The rebels FIRE slaekened on the sec
ond day. Two Companies of Wilson's ZOu-
aves had charge of batteries near the fort
two companies assisting on the fort and the
remainder Of the regiment have work in the
trenches to repell a midnight attack. The
heaviest rebel guns were near the Light
House, and their best mortars on both sides
of ths Hospital The Water Battery below
Fort McRae is bad customer. The ranges
Of our artillerymen are splendid. A note
dGted the 24th states that Col. Brown pro-
hibited firing unless the rebels opened, 1t be-
ing the Sabbath. One of our guns burst
yesterday. The rebels have evidently sut-
fered much.

A JUsF RErRIBUTIoH.-A letter from
private in the Seventy ninth HighIanders
disoloses an instance of just retribption
which fell upon an earnest traitor, who
should have been hung months ago. It
will be remembered that in tho early part
Of the summer a man employed in the
Washington Navy Yard was discovered
filing shells with sand instead Of the prop
er material This man had received ned
iesl education, and on his escape within
the rebel lines resumed the practice Of his
profession When the Seventy ninth land
ed ct Port Royal, the irst sight which greet
ed them on entering the hospital was this
man. seated ct q table, with a splendid
oase Of surgical instruments before him,
his LEFT arm resting naturally upon the t..
bic, and the position Of his body indicating
perfect ease, but upon 3 closer examination
it was discovered that the entire upper
portion Of his head had been cut away,
from the crown 10 the back Of Ills neck, By
q cannon ball

An improved style Of oOngreYe reoket Is
about to be introduced in the army Of the
Potomac. This weapon is one Of the most
fearful that can be devised for setting fire
to ships or villages, or for use against com
pact bodies Of cavalry or infantry. They
fy with q loud, HhizEing sound, scattering
a shower Of fire along their path, and, in
stead Of projecting in straight line like
cannon ball, they turn sharp corners and
shoot of In different directions like zig
zag lightning" No enc can tell but that
rocket speeding past him at furlongs
distance, may turn dozen angles end kill
him the next instant.
