troops, though still inferior in numbers
determined TO try the efficacy OF cold
steel, aud advanced with the bayonet.-
The enemy Immediately fell back. A
portion Of Col. Jones regiment, in the
heat of pursuit, vcntured within range
of the boat howitzers of the Yankees,
which poured sudden fire into our
ranks, killing six aud wounding twelve
OF our men. The enemy rallied under
cover Of their guns, and again pressed
forward. But this time they were met
sya still more impetuous charge, our
brave boys pursuing them to their very
boats. So precipitate was the flight Of
the Yankees that they incontinently
threw down and abandoned their guns
and whatever else encumbered their val.
liable persons. II is said that in the
second charge Of our troops not mus.

did not fancy the portentous tramp of
our companies and the silent glitter of
our bayonets; so they broke end ran in
the true Bull Run style.
Our loss. beyond those killed and
wounded by the shells OF the boat how
itzers, was but trifing. Of the enemy's
loss We have no definite account. When
they finally departed in their boats, they
left four killed and many wounded upon
the field; but il is known that besides
these, they carried off with them mum.
bers both OF killed and wounded.
Early yesterday morning. the enemy
again approached the mainland in much
heavier force than on the preceding day.
