The following is special dispatch to
the Charleston Mercury Hendersonville,
November I, . o'clock p m--The prac-
tice Of our artillerists at Hilton's Head
has been very bad hence the successful
passage of seven OF the enenry's men of
war. Their transports are still outside.

and the troop. ure in good heart The
firing of the Yankee war vessels was very
accurate Hilton Head and Bay Point,
as at first reported, received the brunt of
the attack Our failure TO sink any Of
the vessels which passed our batteries is
owing to the poor practice Of the artiler-
lists. The enemys ships which passed
our batteries can be distinctly seen from
Beaufort. Forts Walker and Beauregard
are still firing. The enemy has lost one
gnn boat which was burned Shells can
be seen from here bursting in the woods,
Our lines of communication are complete.

artillery and cavalry. Four ships are now
IN sight over the land and up as far as
Skull Creek. There is reason to believe
the enemy are now making prepant ons
TO land large force at Hilton's Head to

A gentleman occupying n high position
In Mexico, has just arrived here with inn
portant information which has been laid
before the Government, from the west
coast of Mexico and Sonora. 1t appears
that the whole west coast is greatly ex
cited ut the contemplated intervention of
England, France and Spain in their af-
fairs and they have applied to our Govern
ment to know whether it will sustain them
in their stand rgainst the intrigues of
Spain. The rebel agents are nov very
busy in that section of Mexico, but have
thus far found little sympathy, the people
nearly all fayoring the cause Of the FEEDER
