k.Ssas;sIsss1 She had been lightly ra1nmed kgsszssgssy by the Monongahela, and, al- though she had been struck possibly a hundred times by heavy projectiles mainly from the nine inch broadside guns of the ships, she had suffered no material injury save, for q few holes through the smokestack, which could easily be repaired by her own force. After careful inspection her officers re- ported her otherwise to be in perfect condition.
 The Tennessee was casemated broadside ironclad 209 feet long, with a beam of AS feet. She was armed with six heavy Brook rifles, 100 pounders each in round numbers, two in each broadside, one pivoted forward and one aft; her ports, of which there were ten, were so arranged that the fore and after pivots could be fought in either broadside. She was entirely a home production of the Confederacy. The ship was built at Selma, the guns came from Richmond. the iron plating was made at Mobile from ore mined in Alabama.

The instant the watchers on the long ships discovered the approach of the Tennessee the signal for battle was flown from the Hartford. The engines were started at once, the ships gathered way, and this time under full head of steam, as fast as it could be made in the boilers, they opened out and made for the approaching enemy.
 Signals were flying from the mast head of the Hartford ordering the fleet to close in and ram the enemy. In the admirars steam barge Loyall named for his son, boat which he said was 'the wettest devil he ever sailed .n." Dr. Palmer, noble volunteer, was hurrying from ship to ship repeating the signal and carrying verbal orders from the admiral, while from points of vantage on the flagship the army sig nal officers were transmitting messages to the different vessels of the fleet. The slow, unwieldy, numbering moni tors were also getting under way as rapidly as possible.
 The ship nearest the Tennessee, which was now close at hand, was the Monon- gahela, which had been especially pro- vided with an iron prov with a heavy wooden backing for ranmtng purposes. The slight collision in the channel had done no harm to, either vessel. Cap tain Strong was eager to see how the ram would stand the impact of his iron prov backed by two thousand tons of ship going at full speed. He confident ly expected to cut her down or overrun her.
 The Tennessee was headed straight for the Hartford. Buchanan rightly judged her to be the most important shin. and thought If he could dispose Of,

A SERIOUS FIRE
Johnson's Racket Store Suffers
Severely Saturday Night.

About midnight, Saturday, Mat
Flood and Dan Roche discovered smoke
issuing from the Wheeler building oc-
cupied by Otto Johnsons Racket
Store. An alarm was promptly given
and the fire department was promptly
at work, but were at loss for q time
TO do efficient work as the dense smoke
prevented locating the fire readily,
but as soon as this was done the lire
was promptly extinguished, but not
before considerable damage was done
to the stock. The fire was between
the stove and the partition wall in the
back end of the sales room and before
extinguished had burned up the shely-
ing and goods in that vicinity. How
the fire originated is not known and
Mr. johnson cannot account for it in
any way. He was fairly we'll insured
but his stock is practically total toss,
the smoke permeating everything and
the crockery cracked and scaled,by the
intense heat,

day and were all cut too pieces. Geo.
A. Owens, Billy McCrea, Robt. Hur.

the charge. Billy McCrea they have
not found yet. The rest are buried.
They have been fighting for IL days.
Our regiment went out to Jackson
and skirmished all the way to Haines
Bluff and Walnut Hill. John Gem
mill and Isaac Demott died on the
march. 1 will now give you the
names of the wounded: Chester In
man in the leg, not dangerous; Still
man Converse in the thigh, not
dangerous; Finley d. Pierce in foot,
slightly; Andrew Miller lost an arm;
John Freeborn in ankle; Fernando
Reeves in arm and head. Capt. Web
ster led the boys gallantly and escaped
unharmed, also Lieut.. Kemmery was
not touched. John Logue was not
hurt. "Stote" was not in the charge.
1 cannot think Of all that escaped
without being wounded, and probably
have missed some that were, George
[Owens] died at his post and in the
charge of his duty. I regret his loss
and chiefly on account of his poor
wife, he thought 50 much of her, and
wished SO often he might be spared to
go home. 1 have often heard him
speak freely of how reckless some men
are in going into battle, in some in
stances ushered into their Makers
presence with an oath upon their lips.
Lieut.. Abernethy has just arrived
from the regiment. He says there
were 116 killed and wounded out of it.
Capt. Kelsey is dead; he was wounded
in the same leg as at Pea Ridge; am
putation followed and death. Capt.
Washburn was in command of the reg.
iment, and was dangerously wounded.
Lieut.. Granger was acLing adjutant,
and had desperate fight for the col
ors. The rebels had hold of the flag
stat, he caught the flag,:tore it off and
placed it in his bosom; he was not
wounded. 1t seems lmposi-
BILE to take Vicksburg, but our men
say they are bound to take it. They
had drove them to the last breast
works, but could not get over them
without ladders, being so steep. Our
men got in such position that they
could not use their cannon on them,
so they cut the fuse and fired it and
rolled the balls down on our men at
the foot of the hill. I think we will
be victorious at last, but 1T is going to
take good deal of hard fighting to
take the town. We have them com.
pletely surrounded and can starye
them out. Our boys that were taken
prisoners say they had to eat corn
bread and rotten beef.
