Official dispatches have been received
from Admiral Dnpont regarding the recent

The rams came upon the feet during

so low in the water, the MercediIa was

was disabled by the first shot of the ram,
which passed clear through her, and ex

the power of motion, killing the gunrer,

ram, after being Detained half an hour by
the Mercediis, started for the Keystone,
and soon disabled her by shot through
both steam chests Ten rife shells struck
her, and two burst on the quarter deck.
The Housatonic gave chase and a shot
from her struck the pilot house Of The ram,
