At half past five o'clock in the
morning the guns of the land batterie9
were trained on the island, which lies
in the bay Of Rio Janelro only short
distance from the city, and opposite
the marine arsenal
a heavy fire was directed against
the rebels and this continued without
cessation for five hours. Then a
white flag appeared and 1t was be-
icVed that the rebels were ready to
surrender, but they asked only for an
armistice, probably for the purpose Of
removing the dead and injured. Tho
bombardment OF the island ceased for
an hour, being renewed at II o'clock.
The land batteries and two loyal
warshios took part and the artillery
duel continued with great violence
until half past three o'clock this aft
ernoon.
The Island proved a good target for
the batteries and replied with a Wig
orous volIey, employing shrapneI.
Several persons were killed along
the shore and adjoining streets. The
fire against the scout ship Rio Grande
de Sui lasted three hours and among
the killed was one officer. Small
bands OF rebels climbed into launches
and drew near the front of the Pa
