The bubble at first created only on the surface OF
society Lere in regard TO Hrasbear City has proved
70 be a mncN more serious mater than bubble.
They took from 10 there thirty thousand rounds oil
cannon ammunition, thirty pieces of fine artillery
1900 600 snters goods, aud medical stores in such
quantities that ia impossible to state their value to
ms but how valuable TO them With these they
cot vas, quantities Of baggage belonging 20 officers
now at Port Hudson, together with large sulpnes
OF COMPANY property OF every DESCRIPTION. Inc
flour, salt sugar, pork beef, and other comul.'ary
stores, were Of enormous quantities. l have heard
many persons say that our ioss at Brasheaf Was
more by far than all that we ever gained from the
Teche expedition.
The General 10 opening bis eyes 10 the designs OF
this band Of Texans, aud already be ha'
intercepted them at Donaldsonyille, killing ~
taking $50 prisoners, one Northumberland
four majors, and eleven other commissioner
officers together with giving Col. Green Acting
Brigader with his four regiments, good sound
whipping They will not be 20 apt 10 return AGAIN
TO Donadsonyille, the scene Of the battle. We had
but one regiment engaged, yet, how much one resi-
ment made up Of true men may do
TIE Irousides Regiment is mostly in the bands Of
the enemy.
AZ the regiment IL mostly from New-York ! have
takeu pains to furnish the number OF killed and
wounded in the fight a. Lafourcbe Crossing l re-
Qret cannot give the names. Az that hgbt Tour
were killed and twenty-threc wounded. Tnose only
who were in that action free FROM the sad fate
OF the regiment Itself.
+ Out Of the whole regiment loo arc now near Now
Orleans, together with the following officers: Lieut..
Trivia, Lieut. Good-ell, Lieut.. Kehr, Lieut.. West,
Capt. Terry Lieut. Ostram, Lieut.. Landers, Lieut..
Stevenson, Sergt. Cosuer, Lieut.. Weed. and Capt.
Barber. Among the prisoners IL Lieut.. Daniel Gsno
Gillette son Of A. j. Gillette. ID. ID. Of New-l ork.
Lieut. Gillette was one Of the few who made gallant
resistance TO the foe but he fell with the crowd, ~
many brave boys did, simply because their leaders
were not fit for their work.
Four hundred and eighty-iivo Rebel prisoners.
captured lately AT Port Hudson, were ordered, under
command Of Col. Davis Of the let Texas Cavalry,
70 proceed on board the Cahawba for Fortress Mon
roe. 1ney were Il sorry looking crowd, yet As they
went aboard tie shp their Rebel friends were on
hand with their comforts. One CAPTAIN, whOre
name is T.. +. Ihayer, who had charge OF zone Of
these prisoners, wac more la5orious and attentive
than any Of the Rebels. The >ccesh women made Il
servant Of him, TO carry money, food, fans, &c, 10
their Rebel soldier friends-a matter which appeared
20 make him stand high in their esteem. Two off,
GERS Of his regiment inform that he took Of
these prisoners and treated" them 10 whisky and
wine in the shops ere they reached the chip When
about to leave the Captain got three cheers from the
Rebels, matter which greatly disgustsd the Union
soldiers present many OF whom are manned for life
perhaps, from bullets fired by some Of these fame
wretches whom the Massachusetts Captain was 30
very attentive TO.
This may not be for the Secretary Of War,
but many Of us think 1t certainly is.
The prisoners were LETT at Fort Monroe on the
7th. They were taken at once 10 City Point 10 be
exchanged. C.
