EDS. JOURNAL: An extract, published
in your paper of Saturday, from the
Princeton Clarion, may be construed to
reflect discredis on the Vanderburgh boys
for a part which they took in little
affair while the Goth Regiment was at

1t is true that went out after forage
with some twenty of my company and
some cavalry, 1t is also true that we
exposed ourselves to an attack from the
enemy just as soldiers are generally ex-
posed. 1t is also true that while passing
through lane we were fred into from a
cornfeld Our teams became confused
and some OF them ran away, as they were
mostly secesh horses which had been
"pressed and were in the habit of run
ing. But it is not true that we went off
and left the wagons, or that the soGgons
were burned.
The Vanderburgh boys returned the
fire promptly, and in short time were
rallied from the confusion which the
trains in. the lane had occasioned, and
went back to the place where the firing
commenced, and skirmished through the
field where we supposed the guerrillas to
be. t
In the meantime Major Platter came
from town with some more cavalry. The
teamsters made ready to start forward
with all the forage, except one load Of
corn in the husk, which had been over
turned in the road and the wagon bro
ken. Major Platter, who was now my
superior officer, gave orders to move or
to town and leave the broken wagon anG
the corn behind When we afterwardi
returned with more infantry this ont
broken wagon had been burned by The

Natehez BOmbarded by Commodore
POPteF.--Surrender Of the city TO
the Bayou Sara Burned.

The New Orleans Delta ofSetember 9,
gives full particulars of two battles by
the iron-clad gunboat Essex, the des-
truction of Bayou Sara, and the bonn
bardment and capture of the city of
Natchez
The United States iron-clad steamer
Essex, Commodore w. d. Porter, arrived
from up the river yesterday. We have
some very important and interesting
news by this arrival, comprising some of
the acts and doings of this monster iron
ship with iron hearts
About week (more or less) ago, as
the Essex was cruising along in the riv-
er, the lookout reported the rebel gun
boat VIM H. Webb in sight Chase was
given Immediately, and she was pursued
past the guns at Vieksburg The Essex
then started down the river, and on
reaching Natchez, sent a boats crew
ashore for ice The boat, on nearing
shore, was fred into by the rebels, and
several Of the crew wounded For this
act of temerity the whole shooting force
of the Essex was brought to bear upon
the ill-fated city for about two hours and
half, when deputation was sent down
with proposition to surrender the city
and hoist the Stars and Stripes. Com
modore Porter then ordered the firing to
cease, and proceeded down the river un-
til off Bayou Sara, where he came to q
\ stop long enough to burn that ill-fated
abode of rebels. There were but two
houses left standing-one belonging to a
gentleman who is said to be friendly to
- Al 81,
erty of lady. We did not learn what
insult was the immediate cause of this
visitation of vengeance.
On Sunday, as the Essex was coming
down the river, rebel battery of thirty
four guns, opposite Port Hudson, opened
upon her, and fierce battle, at not more
than eighty feet distance, began, which
| lasted an hour At the end of that time
the battery was silenced and the steamer
passed down.
The rebel battery was mounted witt
guns of very heavy calibre, but the cir
cumstance only suffice to prove the re
markable powers of resistance of tn,

multitude of places with 10inch ant
other sized balls, the result in all case
being the same-a slight indentatlon int

The Essex commenced with the uppe
