FIGHT BETWEEN OUR STEAMERS AND TIE IRON


This d!spatch was brought % Capt. Porter
this afternoon by Captain Boggs, late com
mandeT Of the Varuna, whose vessel was sunk
in the action. From Cspt. Boggs / obtained
ssme further information He stated that before
the Yaruna sunk she destroyed alone six of the
rebel steamers, of which he learned the names
Of four, VIZ The VIM. II Webb, Palmetto,
Phenix and jackson. As he passed the forts,
Capt. Boggs, as well as all the other vessels re-
ceived their FIRE. The Richmond, and one or
two more of the large steam sloOps, slowed down
and poured three or four broadsides each into the
enemy. The Varuna did not wait afler deliver
ing two brosdsides, but pressed directly on into
. hornets nestIof rebel gunbOats which were a
mile or two above She was assaied by these
two OF three at e time, in ram fashion, butting
at her with their iron-cased prOws. and several
large holes were made in her.
As long as his vessel Aoated, Capt Boggs
fought gallsnty with his guns, and drove the
enemy's steamers ashore, where they were fred
BY their own crews. One Of the Varuna's shot
disabled still another steamer by making hole
in her boiler, and this vessel surrendered to the
Oneida, who took her officers and crew prisoners.
The Varunas last guns were fred when her
decks were under water, and no clothing or
other property was saved by a soul on board.
There were three of the Varuna's crew killed in
are not expected to survive their injuries. In
Guiding the ram there were eleven Of the rebel
steamers destroyed and the captain Of the ram
is prisoner on board the Mississippi
After the fight, the whole squadron repaired
to the quarantine anchorage, which is seven
miles above the forts. There the dead were
buried, and the wounded made as comfortable as
circumstances would permit The number of
our killed and wounded is estimated by Capt.
Boggs at sbout l25, and II of these belonged to
the Richmond He thinks the loss on the side
of the rebels was enormous. The chain cables
which were fastened on the outside of our vessels
proved an admirable protection to their ma
chinery, as in every case where the shot struck
them it bounded off without penetrating. A
great deal of damage was done TO Us by :ne
floating dock Of the rebels, to which | had be-
fore adverted; and although many brOadsides
were discharged at it, they had no effect what

Fvervtbing for the Cause.

Cur people do not fear death so much as they
do Inconvenience, deprivation Of comfort, and
loss Of property. They would wage war to the
death, but they would feign solace themselves
with the delusive hope that it can be waged
without any other sacrifice than that of blood
They must no longer recoil from the idea of such
losses They will have 10 make up their minds
TO endure the reality. Corn bread and mule
meat may yet become the fare of our men, If
we are in earnest in this struggle we will submit
10 It, and with il we will conquer. Should we
reach that point Of heroic virtue and selfdenial
then nothing less than the armies Of the living
God could subjug2te US. If ny a combination of
land and naval forces our chief cities are taken,
let US remember that the country is left to as.
We can there concentrate our forces at proper
points, and whip the enemy in detail They
will have TO keep armies il captured cities and
towns TO bold them, OF their pretended conquests
will be but farces. We have an ally ofimmense
power in the approaching summer. It's heat
will generate fever that will more than decimate
our enemy. Their ships will become hospitals
and their camps will become graveyards.
No great object Is accomplished without a cor
responding sacrifice, and in order 10 accomplish
our Independence we must at once make up our
minds TO sacrifice everything necessary to it.
Tha; done, then the great difficulty is removed.
Then we exhibit our unconqueTable will and
energy to the enemy and our merit to an admir-
! ing world. Corn bread and potatoes and such
daintes when we can get them This cheap
and simple fare, aided by good arms and sufii-
| cient ammunition. viii make Us invincible
| When we learn TO eat what our heroic fathers
! lived upon during the seven years war of the
revolution, then viii we show ourselves TO be
| worthy Of them Providence may not design us
to encounter such trials, but if we desire to be
heroic and truly virtuous, we must resolve, il
necessary, to submit to them. We must at once
make up our minds to sacrifice everything, 10
/ matter what, that inteTferes with our success
T7e hare got to succeed. If we fail, posteTity the
offspring of our own loins, will curse Us for com
meIcing a war which we had not the courage
and the virtus to prosecute to success. It we
must suffer ourselves, let US, at least, bequeath
| TO our children freedom, a country, and an hon
| orabe name To Roman courage we must unite
! 9partan economy and selfdenial- Richmond

! UNITED STATES BARKESTTEE Horace BEALEs .
| MISSISSIPPI RIVER "Wednesday April %, 1862
The siege Of Forts Jackson and St. Philip has
| been in progress almost uninteyTuptedly during
the past six days and five nights, and still they
are not reduced All this time l have been pa
| tiently waiting the end, Convinced that sue
| cinct narrative of operations after success had
! been achieved woul be far more acceptable to
you than a difused statement of events in the
order of their occurrence. But it is'impOssible
to conjecture how long The rebels will remain at
bay, and meantime my note book is becoming
fearfully full. Therefore, if l would send the
news in detail, must write il now at the risk Of
its appearing tissue Of shreds, patches and
fragments.
Iwill premise with the statement that to-day
the 23a day of April-wil be remembered as the
date of one of tho most desperate of naval bat
ties. At o'clock in the morning the greater
| part Of Commodore Fauaguts squadron, CON
slsting of FIVE sloop5- of-war and nine ganboats,
successfully passed up the river, running through
a fearful fire, and are now above the forts The
mortar fotla and eigh. armed steamers are still
/ below the enemy, who is thus placed between
/ two fires, with his supplies from New Odeaus
cut of, and rendering his surrender merely a
/ question of time. Of the damage that has re.
suited to either side, l have at present little
/ knowledge.
From my position with the mor.ar vessels /
can see the masts If our Aeet, apparently three
or four miles beyond the forts and the flag of the
Union is flying from the top Of every spar The
