How Fate and she had done it;
She took her head out of the hat,
And put il in a bonnet.

Her lips grew Tain, her cheeks fell in,
And gloomed from out the bonnet.

Some days ago news came from the south
that the Insurgents who still remain at Pensa-
cola looking wisttuIly over at Fort pickens,
bad, to retallate for the burning OF the dry
dock and the capture of their priyateer, the
judith landed on Santa Rosa Island at night,
attacked Col Wilson's ZOuaveS, there en-
camped and almost annihiated the regiment.
They killed great many, took a great many
more prisoners, spiked several cannon, and
got off, as the Insurgents always do-accord-
ing 10 their own accounts-without loss.
Scarcely was this news properly digested
when there came Il dispatch from Holllns, the
traitor in command OF the rebel fleet Oh the
Mississippi, that lie had sunk the Pre- bic sloOp.
war destroyed the Saranac frigate, run the
rest OF the Mississippi fleet "on the sands, and
'peppered them well"
These are two great exploits and though
we know that Col. Wilson's ZUuaves had no
cannon TO be spiked, though we know that
there are no Sands on the Mlssissi pi Tor
Hollins 10 run our ships on, and no Saranac at
the Belize to be destroyed, still we waited with
some curiosity for further news from the
south" We have waited three months for II
South side view" OF the battle OF Bull Run,
and conclude that Beauregaid, who won great
fame there, is too modest 10 speak OF al affair
in which he was so greatly concerned. IL
seems that HolnS, whom lew suspected OF
such virtue, is also modestly silent Nearly
d week has now gone by, since his dispatch
reached the north, and though southern
news" COMES through 10y way OF Kentucky as
usual, not a word more is heard from the mod
est Hollins, who has doubtless requested eager
southern journalists 10 say nothing OF his sue
cess.
There is something farther about the Santa
Rosa Island affair but it does not come up TO
the expectations raised by the first dispatch.
IL seems, according TO these later accounts,
that Colonel Wilson and his men rapidly fled
beyond The eastern wall Of Fort Plckens,"
which is likely enough as this was their best
way II they found themselves attacked by a
superior force They could not have been
greatly hurried however, as we read that the
prudent enemy did not follow them nearer than
within a mile OF Fort Pickens. That the tort
and the feel did not fire upon them Is not un-
likely as the night was dark, and the COM
manders probably feared lest they might fire
upon our own men. AS the rebels acknOw
ledge one general and twenty nine men wound
ed and more than dozen killed, and claim
thirty prisoners, their success, taking their
own account, was very slight--or else Gen.
Bragg has also caught the prevailing epidemic
Of modesty.
