The Southern Express Company has lost one OF its
most faithful and most valued servants. John is dead
that good old horse is no more He died of tetanus
commonly called lock-jaw, yesterday morning.
John was a white horse of vast physical powers and
great mental capacity of keen perception and vigorous
appetite. Although no longer young, yet was be not
stened in his joints weak in his knees, for John
was a moral horse and eschewed tobacco and strong
drink neither did he disspate in his youth, he
given to late hours ungodly gee Yet, like the best
of men and horses John had his faults. he was not
without spice of Old Nick and uUould rack in harness.
But he is gone. He run nail in bis foot or he ran his
foot on nail, we don't know which. He was laid out
yesterday il state in the hospital department of Mr..
Curry's stable. Peace to bis names! The Express
office is unhappy and the agent refuses to be comorted
But John is out of his misery, and if there be any sort
of horse heaven he is there enough head and tail
up and cavorting like unto colt. Yea, verify, rifle
barreled breach4oading, sver-mounted colt, with a
mahogany stock and double sights.

The Rebel Batteries Slenced by COL Brown-Ths first
National Account-Lack Of a Sufficient Force to
make the Victory complete.
The Columbia, from Havana, arrived yesterday
brought mail from Fort Pckens. Letters from that
post state that 10 the recent fight Col Harvey Brown
senced the rebels guns but had lot force enough to
land and drive off Braggs army.
By the courtesy of gentleman Of this city, We have
been permitted to read private letter from his son. on
board the United States steamer Richmond, recently
stationed at Pass POutre, but which subsequently
took part 10 the fight at Fort Pickens The letter is
dated Nov %, z. NJ.
At 10 o'clock on the morning OF Nov. o. the Rich
mond opened bombardment on Fort McRee and the
neghbOring sand batteries. For a while everything
went swimmngly; but the enemy, opening powerful
rfed battery on the ship, the conflict grew Serious
The writer Ia Lieutenant board the Richmond) says
81 had been complimentng the Captain of one of
our guns for the accuracy OF his aim, she'll from
Fort MeRee bounded through cur bulwarks and took
the poor fellows head square off, His brains and blood
were scattered all over my face binding my eyes and
making my brain reel.
We had thirteen men serving that gun. Of these,
six were wounded aud one killed outright, The spec
tacle of the most horrible imaginable.
The firing continued all day, and was resumed by the
enemy next morning. BY this time, however, we had
moved beyond the range of their guns but the Niagara
was still doing her best to silence them.
Up to this time, Fort Pickens had lost but one man
killed and seven wounded.
had in the fact, that when the shell alluded to above
struck the explosion raised the ship of the water
and made her stagger like drunken man Another
shell burst six feet below the waerine causing the ship
to leak freely, but by the aid of the steampumps we
think we can keep her free. We have impaired, but
have not destroyed, and cannot destroy, Fort McRee
unti we have riied cannon. The smooth bore guns
which we obliged to is no match for the ried
cannon OF the enemy, and the sooner the Government
acts upon the truth the better. The Niagara all the
while at some distance outside the bar and cannot
be much injured.
Tomorrow (23d) we intend to renew the lombard
meat, with the determination to whip or be whipped
The Richmond, previous to coming here, was en-
ployed in the blockade of the Mississippi Passes Du-
ring her absence from there we have learned that sew
eral rebel vessels have managed to go to sea.
A Spanish vessel had come down, with a number OF
Spaniards on board, who obliged to escape from
New Orleans TO avoid Imprisonment.
These ugitves report that the most vigorous prepar
ations were making by the rebels to repel attack They
had three lronclad steam batering rams ready each
carrying from Is to 20 guns of the heaviest cabre-
They were also constructing additional steam rams and
