More about the Fight at Charleston
Gen. Foster net yet Relieved.
HIS POSITION VERY PRECARI0Us.

New York, April l3.-The Times
publishes an extra containing detailed
account of the fight at Charleston.
1t says the result ofthe reconnaissance
proves the utter ineficiency of the iron
clad feet to take Charleston, alone.
The Nahant received thirty wounds,
several being bad fractures.
The Passaic was also wounded severe
ly in the turret and pilot-house
The Nantucket's turret was so Jared
that the ports could not be opened, rem
dering her 15-inch gun useless.
A steamer from Newbern, N. c., on
the 9Th, brings the following: 1t was
expected that Gen. Foster would have to
surrender for want of provisions
Transports with 800 men went on the
the Sth to reinforce Foster via Tar Riv-
er, but were obliged to return on account
of rebel batteries. Fosters force consis-
ted of l. 200 men,
On the 9th Gen. French with 5000
men endeavored to reinforce Foster, via
the Neuse river, but were met by supe-
rior force of the enemy, and they re-
turned.
1t is said the rebels are marching on
Newborn.

hausted.
The dense smoke &C., favored their OPP
erations, enabling them to approach very
near without our being able to observe
them.
Our siege guns and light batteries
opened with murderous effect literally
strewing the ground with meu and hors-
ss- l had halted Stanley four miles out
on the Murfreesboro' road. He at once
crossed his forces over to Heights
Mills and vigorously attacked Forest,
and moved down on the Lewisburg pike
Capturing 6 pieces of artillery, and
some 200 prisoners; but owing to the
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS of the country, he
was unable to hold them-being attacked
by greatly superior numbers-outhanked
and nearly surrounded.
Our loss in killed wounded and prison
ers is less than one hundred. While the
enemy's cannot be less than three times
that number.
The enemy were repulsed OF all sides
and driven until darkness prevented the
pursuit.
Captain McIntire of the 4th Regulars

NATURE OF THE DISTRACTIONS.

New YORK, April 13.-The Times cor

In the Charleston fight the iron-clads
were exposed to the concentric fire from
five different points, unparalleled in the
history of warfare.
The feet found it impossible to pass
up beyond Sumter and to assume the
appointed place, owing to Instructions
which extended across the entire chan
mel from Sumter to Moultrie, while above
these,.near the middle ground, were three
other rows of piles, and above these three
rebel iron-clads The fleet was thus com
PEELED to sustain this terrific fire, and
nobly it did so for thirty minutes.
During that time not less than $500
shots were fred by the enemy, loo being

Gen. Banks, the old Commissary in Fir.
GINA of the lamented Stonewall Jackson, ap-
pears to be doing good service in his depart
inent to Gen. Kirby Smith.
1t appears that the advance Of Banks army,
from Alexandria, met with no obstruction in
getting across the country to the Mississippi
river, and were then crossed to Bayou Sara
on gunboats and transports. The remnant,
consisting of a large Yankee force and 1000
negroes, wero in the rear, with about fifty
wagons loaded with supplies. a soldier who
was in The neighborhood Of Cheneyville, in
the lower part Of Rapides Parish, states that
quito a skirmish occurred there last week with
this portion of Gen. Banks force. He was a
witness to one portion of the fight. He says
General Morton, with 1000 or 1000 cavalry,
made a spirited attack upon the force accom-
panying the train, and after several charges
routed the Yankees, broke up their organiza-
ton, took q large number of them prisoners,
aud captured the whole train of wagons,
horses, mules, and provisions. Gen. MVrton's
cavalry also secured the whole 1000 negroes,
that the enemy had taken from the parishes
through which the army had passed. When
the soldier left the vicinity of Cheneyville
Gen. Morton's cavalry were hourly bringing
in prisoners, who had been routed and. scat
tered by the fight. General Banks proved
an excellent Commissary to the Confederatcs
in the Shenandoah Valley, and he is now sus-
tanning his good reputation in the Gulf de-
~partment. This is the second heavy train
General Nlorton's cavalry has captured from
Banks this spring.
