What George Alfred Townsend ("Gath")
knows about Senator Bayard is published
on our first page. George is a smooth wri-
ter, but he is accused of having a thin kind
OF veracity. Some of the Democratic pa.
pers of this State have been slow to admit
this when George has been criticising some
Republican official, but now they cannot
insist upon it too stronly And with all
their insisting, we think that some of the
assertions he makes are not as thin as they
could wish.

began to whistle around them. Let
them come little nearer-we can afford
to throw away powder
The men stood firm, as though hown
from the solid rock, patiently waiting the
word. At last, when the English had ar
rived within 100 feet of them, the COM
mand was given. A sheet of flame ran
along the breastwork, and as the leaden
shower fell among the assailants terrible
gap was made in their number. lmmedl-
ately, as the report Of the first yolley rang
in the air. the stern voice OF Colonel Eos
ter was heard above the din :-'Rear rank,
advance! Present! Fire !" and another
death-dealing discharge poured from the
breastwork.
In spite of the efforts of their officers
the English broke and retreated toward
the handful OF men. But this time no tri-
umphant cheer accompanied their onset.
On this occasion the assalants rushed on
at a charge, with the evident intention OF
carrying the breastwork at the point OF the
bayonet. Not Il shot was fired until they
arrived within point blank distance, when
again the fiery storm was hurled upon
them and again they broke, while another
well directed volley threw them into per-
feet disorder. A general rush for the
boats Immediately ensued, and while
crowding into them the Americans ieis

the action the British brig had caught

aud experienced severe loss from
the Americans, who continued to pour
their fire into her until she tloated and was
removed down the river. In this battle
three Americans only were killed and
small number wounded, while the killed
and wounded of the British amounted, as
near as could be ascertained. to 100. Al
ter this repulse the British did not make

wounded on board, they weighed anchor
and stood out of the bay on their return to
