the Yankees, having all gotten on deck and armed, were pouring it into us with remarkable rapidity. The flashes came full in our faces, lighting them up with a deathly pallor, while the sulphurous of burning powder pervaded the air. Struck by a splinter the first fire, bringing a profusion of blood from my face and nose, I could scarcely see or comprehend all the rapid movements of our little fleet; but I knew our boat was first at the side, Capt. Wood's close after, then came Lieuts. Hoge, Kerr, Porcher, Gardner, Roby, and Wilkinson, while a short distance away, slackened up to prevent running down the other boats, was Gift with his launches. Our boat once fast, Lieut. Loyall and Mr. Gill, engineer, sprang forward to lead the men on board. At this time the fire was the hottest I have ever seen even in three years experience in war, and I hardly dared hope one- half our number would come out alive Mr. Wood, especially, I looked every moment to see fall.

ngle fortifications on our left centre, held by Cheatham and Cleburne. They marched defiantly up in seven lines of battle. Our troops received their fire until they approached within a few yards of our breastworks, when we opened with grape, canister, and musketry, creating great havoc in their ranks. The fire was so rapid and destructive that the enemy could not rally, and was driven back with a loss of between 830 and 1,000 men. We captured about 100 prisoners, including Lieut Col John B Kerr, of the 74th Illinois; Capt H B Wakefield, of the 58th Indians, and Lieut J. H York, of the 63d Indians; two stand of colors--one presented to the 27th Illinois regiment by Brig Gen N B Buford.
