The confusion in the encampment of

the position of General Kent's and Cen
eral Wheeier's divisions in the line of
battle. General Kent bivouaced some
what to the right and rear of General
Wheeler, but the first movement this
morning placed the dismounted cavalry
in the right front of Captain Grimes

The old Third cavalry of many gal
liant memories greatly distinguished it
self in the first determined assault upon
the enemy's center. Major Vessels was
in command. Later a volunteer regi-

the Third. The GOODNESS and discretion

the Sixth cavalry, which was
brigaded with the Third, captured the

The Twenty-first New York did ex-
cellent work and has many killed or

One Of the finest features of the
days battle was the charge of Cen
eral Kent's and General Wheeler's di-
visions about midday up the slope to-
ward the San Juan battery, which was
carried by storm. The Spanish forts
all along the line throughout the day
fought with great courage, but they
were Cvermatched, both in morale and
physique by the American army. Never
was there a finer body of men than
those of General Skaters army hurled
against an enemy. Despite the slow
ness and embarrassment of their
movements, the night before had put
them into a most exalted strain of
cheerfulness, and when the morning
broke they were only too eager for the
fray. When the artillery fire was
opened by Grimes and Hill, long self
congratulatory cheer ran along the
line from left to right. There was in
it the assurance of victory, and not
Withstanding the unexpected persist
ent defence of the Spaniards, this
cheerful assurance never faltered for
an instant. Even the wounded men,
hundreds of whom your correspondent
overlook While returning to the rear
spoke most cheerfullys in the midst of
their sufferings and asked the news
from the front and in the whole of this
long line of MANNED and bleeding men,
not a single complaint was heard. The

quickly and effectively.
A somewhat amusing feature of the
afternoons fighting was the second

The Sally was soon alongside. After
Talbot had conferred with her captain,
the latter and his crew came aboard
the frigate, while Lieutenant Hull, with
party OF seamen and marines, the
latter led by the brave Captain Car

1t was about noon of the following
day when the sloop stood into the har-
Dor of Port Platte. Before her lay the
Sandwich, with her broadside bearing
on the approach; and, at no great dis
lance beyond her, the battery on shore
showed its row of black teeth.

Wild commotion reigned on shore, but
Hull and his men went to work with
all their might to secure their prize.
She had been dismantled above her
deck by the Frenchmen, as "a measure
of precaution against seizure and her
guns had been slowed in the hold; but,
before sunset, her royal yards were
crossed, her guns scaled, and her new
crew quartered- She got under way,
with the American flag at her ensign

Evening was rapidly verging into
night when a ship, followed by a

Commodore Talbot.

officer of the deck through his trum-

commodore. "'Tis - cool job well

He returned the Sally's captain and
crew to their vessel, with many thanks
and a more substantial reward, and
ordered Hull to spread every rag of
canvas on the Sandwich.
