More About tho Fight.

st. Louis, Feb. Is.
The Republicans 1T. Donelson CORES
pondent gives the following account of
the fighting on Saturday:
Yesterday morning, jus. at daylight a
heavy sortle was made by the garrison
from the left portion Of their works. This
attack was made upon the extreme right
wing Of the Union army, whore it was
weakest.-p OF Gun. MoClernands di-
vision under Col. Oglesby, consisting of
his brigade, which was stationed there,
also Sohwartzs aud McAllisters batter
los. The point was upon ridge leading
into the right redoubt and was situated
just above the main fort During the
night the enemy could be heard busily at
work, but whatat it was impossible to tell,
as thickets and woods encompassed the
Union troops on every side, rendering
the view in any direction almost i,npossl-
BILE.
At daylight a large body Of the enemy
suddenly appeared on the extreme right
wing Of Gol Oglesby's command and
opened terrible fire with cannon from
their redoubts, playing at the same time
upen our forces from guns placed in posi-
tion on the night previous. The camp of
the 10Th and 3lst Illinois was most ex.
posed, and the whole brigade was at once
formed into line as follows: 18th Illinois
held the extreme right, 9Th the left, the
30th next, then the 18th Illinois support
ing the right Of Capt Schwartz's battery,
the 3lst defending the artillery on the left.
From the firing Of the first gun until 2
o'clock the battle ragged unremittingly and
with fearful loss on both sides Again
and again our troops drove the enemy
back, but they were as often reinforced,
while our troops had, owing to the ex-
tended lines of the army, and also their
position on the extreme right. "a. fight un-
assisted. More gallant lighting never
took place than that of the Union troops
Exposed to the terrible fire Of treble their
number, they stood their ground until lii
some regiments every officer was killed or
wounded. At last, and reluctantly, regi-
ment by regiment, they slowly fell back,
leaving Schwartz's battery and three of
Allister's guns in the rebels hands..--
Retiring few hundred yards, they again
made a stand, and Gen. Smith arrived
with reinforccments, and at once drove
the enemy again into their works. In the
first Of the battle was also Gen. Wallace d
brigade, the l2th, 18th, 18th and 48th;
also, Col MeArthur's brigade, al Of
hich troops suffered severely. Opposed
to them were 1900 rebels, supported By
guns placed carefully in position. Gen.
Grant having command OF division drove
the enemy back with reinforceinents and
gained the lost ground. At once he or
dered an advance by Gen. Smith On the
left, charging under hot Gre up the ssoep
hill on which was tho ont redoubt. Our
troops gained the high breastwork, and
with hardly pause. went over them,
planting the stars and stripes over the
walls undera most CALLING fire. They
formed and charged and drove the rebels

DETERMINED COLONEL AND Coon PRE-
CEDENT.-0n Saturday afternoon the Both
Massachusetts regiment came through 1t
comprised rs fine set of men as ever hand
led musketS. Their number are Il thousand
and twenty, fully equipped, and armed with
finely made Enfield rifles. They were enlist
ed in Boston and the larger towns of Massa-
chusetts, and, as far as physiquei is concerned,
are a particularly fine set Of men.
AS everybody knows, in every regiment of
recruits there are always more or less men
who crave strong drink. They obtain it sur
repttiously, and on their way to the seat of
war meet with accidents, ottentimes fatal.
All the summer long, at intervals, drowned
bodies of such soldiers have been found and
many have been hurt by careessness when
intoxicated, in travelling upon the trains.
Col. Wild knowing all this, resolved when his
men reached the refreshment saloon, on Sat
urday afternoon, no liquor should be given to
them. While his men were partaking of the
Inequalities of the refreshment saloons, he
personally went to the prOprietOrS of the
drinking rooms in the vicinity. He request
ed them to sell no liquor to his men. In
making this request he also gave the reasons
forit, and to make assurance doubly sure
stationed guards at the doors to prevent his
men from entering. By the people of two
taverns, kept by men respectively named
Brown and Thompson, Col. Wilds request
was disregarded, and liquor was brought out
to some Of the men by back way.
This was reported to the colonel. Very
naturally he became indignant, for soldiers
lives are too valuable to be lost for the sake
of putting a shilling into liquor dealers
pocket. He therefore ordered out two squads
and sent them to the offending tavern keep
ers, with orders to break up all the liquor
casks they found. There are two recruiting
stations close by. One is for Col. Heenans
regiment the other for that of Col. Collins
Some of the men thereabout interfered and
drew knives. A slight disturbance resulted in
which an officer of the Massachusetts regiment
seized Zouave by the back OF the neck and by
his pantaloons, actually throwing him into
the middle Of the street. 1t was said that one
OF the Massachusetts soldiers received a stab,
but we could find nothing to verify the state
ment The liquor was destroyed by the col
onefs orders in spite of this disturbance.
The squads went to the places, and with the
butts of their muskets stove in the casks
The colonel said he was responsible for what
the men had done, and would pay for the
damage, but that no one should sell liquid
poison to his men
The regiment afterwards passed southwark.

wishes, or by simply taking the oath OF neu-
tra|itv. while they defantly refuse to take the
oath of allegiance. What hope Is there =
They laugh at such foolislness on our part,
and only take us to be the very doughfaces
they have always called us. They like well
to have us feed and protect their families,
while they fight and kIillns.
The drafting suits me exactly. A govern
ment that has not the power to call her men
into the field, compel them to fight, and pay
them just when and in what manner she is
able to, is no government. 1t is all that will
save us, When | see the earnestness with
which the south are in the work, the zeal with
which they leave their work and Join in the
war, burning their own homes when they can
no longer keep the vile Yankee" from pol
luting them, and look at the north, plodding
along as though everything was all right, bus
mess Of all kinds fair, if not better than ever,
with now and then an adyenturer, willing to
go to the war upon the receipt Of more money
than he ever possessed before. Were it moi
in Justice due to the men. we have enlisted,
that their officers stay with them, l would
leave, and use my influence to have others.
Don't for a moment think that | forget the
many who have fallen, or been crippled for
| life, whose sufferings we as brothers are
bound to avenge. have the same confidence
that the cause is just, but have, fear, lost
trust in the heart of the northern people. II.

CITY AND COUNTY.
Progress OF EnIistments-The Bounty
Offered.

Progress OF EnIistments-The Bounty
offered.
The city council, at their adjourned meet
ing last evening, unanimously voted bounty
of 800 to each volunteer who enlistS from
the city, under the call for nine months men,
and appropriated the sum of $4,000 for this
purpose. The bounty is TO be paid when the
men are mustered into the United States SER
vice. This order passed without the condi-
ton that the whole quota should be filled by
volunteers. But it is now confidently expect
ed, as it is most ardently desired, that no
draft will in any event be needed in Worccs-
ter.
The business mems war meeting, adjourned
from Tuesday afternoon, was held at the City
Hall last evening-Mr S. Il. Haywood pre-
siding. Spirited and earnest speeches were
made by Rev Messrs. Richardson and Ship
pen, Col Chamberlain and Major McCafferty
all addressed to the one point of promoting
enIistments During the meeting the COM
| pany rolls were brought forward and twenty
names were added to the list of volunteers.
ne meeting ADJOURNED 10 meet AT lne same
place this Thursday evening at O'Clock.
Let the good work go forward
Something like two hundred and fifty
names are still wanting to complete the mus
ter rolls of this city alone. Three working
days remain before the time appointed for
volunteering expires. If the citizens of Wor-
ceSter desire to announce to the country, on
the LIST of September next, that their repre-
sentatives are all ready for the work to which
they are called-to keep its yet untarnished
name among the foremost of those which
give cheerfully all the country asks of
them, they have only to say it shall
| be so, and IT WILL BE. Five compa-
MES are now forming, which, with the
assistance other towns are waiting to render,
can be filled by Saturday night. In each of
these companies it will be alike honorable to
serve. Well directed and determined efforts
in behalf of any of them, contribute alike to
the grand result. The city government has
done its duty. The recruiting officers are
trying with laudable energy to do theirs.
Now let the citizens who have the will and
the POWER accomplish the rest!
