under command Of Col. Wood, about ono mile
nom Rodney. The enemy were forced TO re-
treat ne the Federal command advanced, keep.
ing up continual skirmish, until arriving 1t
Cclenpsn's pleptation, elcyen miles from Rod
nsy. Hero the enemy made stand, and
checked our advance; but soon the entire COM
mand came up TO their support, and q sharp
fight ensued, lasting about eight honre. The
enetny made several desperate charges on our
| lines, but were a often repulsed with severe
loss. The b2d regiment colored, became con
fused In the hrst charge, but were soon rallied
and formed in fine again by their ofiicers. The
General In person rode along their lne amid
showers OF lead nom the enemy, telling them
| 10 stand firm. .rS1r'HF' ' ..'
The enemy made three different charges, but
were repulsed each time, and were finally
driven nom the field, leaving their dead In our
hands. Their wounded were carried of the
field before they retreated. 4 Our forces pur.
sued them ive or siI miles, when dsrkpess m
setting in, 1t was found impossible TO follow
them. The General then marched his CONS
maud toward the river. On the way back he
found portion Of the enomy In the rear, whom
he succeeded In passing without any loss. One
company Of our cavalry was sent TO the rear
\ and succeeded In ambushlng the enemy three
times, killing and .wounding a great many,
aftor which they did not follow our lines any
further The opomy lost about 150 men,
Killed, wounded and prisoners. We took 0
prisoners, including one signal officer, with
tequipments.I We lost one man out OF Co. b,
fcayalry, Geo. Hubbart, and five wounded.
The colored troops sustained much greater
loss-ten to fifteen killed and fifteen or twenty
wounded. The colored troops fought like
tigers, Often ciubbing the enemy down with the
butts Of their muskets. No cowardlce was
shown by any Of the command, and all acted
with the most determined bravery and cool
pees. The General then returned TO the river,
and encAmped At Rodney. The command OK
haustsda all tho ammunition and had TO sond to

he will attack tho enemy again. Gen. Ellet
