reconnoissance and returned in the afternoon, followed by the Clara Dolsen, which she had captured some twenty miles up the river. She is a magnificent boat and worth about sixty thousand dollars. We lay there all that night and the next day and night, tortured dreadfully by musquitoes. On Sunday Captain Kilty put the Dolsen in charge of the Third Master of the Lexington, James Fitzpatrick, and sent her up to Memphis. Next morning, (Monday, sixteenth,) at five, the gunboat Conestoga, Captain Blodget, and the transports New National and White Cloud, came up the river and we then all got under way and proceeded up White River. We anchored that night some fifty miles up the river, and sent the Spiteful on ahead to reconnoitre. She returned in about two hours with the information that the enemy had erected a battery at St. Charles, some four miles above. Next morning at six we all got under way, the Mound City leading the St. Louis, Lexington and Conestoga, and the transports White

M., (cavalry,) (who took a gun and fought,) and the Rev. Mr. Wynes, Post Chaplain, (who, in the face of the enemy, assisted in removing the wounded from tile battle-field,) deserve great praise for their gallant conduct during the engagement. I am under many obligations to Major Steger, Lieutenants Campion and Blodget, (members of General Brown's staff,) for the efficient service they rendered me. There are many other officers and men deserving of honorable mention. We lost fourteen killed, one hundred and forty-four wounded, and four missing--making a total of killed, wounded, and missing, one hundred and sixty-two. The enemy's loss cannot be definitely ascertained. Their own estimate of their losses range from two to three hundred killed and wounded. Among their slain is a major. We captured seve

An instance of energetic work which does great credit to Capt. Blodget, and indicates that he will not prove an unworthy son of the man who voluntne to swim the Willacoochee, in defiance of an ambush of hostile Seminole. Capt. Blodget and his company will be heard of with honor in this war. They will be ready of our citizens, who is not the man to blazon his good deeds to the world. Mr. Blodget had engaged to uniform and equip the company at his own expense, and was makse. His design became known to Thos. S. Metcalf, Esq., who at once sent to Capt.

Blodget, enclosing a liberal sum of money, which he says is "from a man of color, a friend of the South, and ever expects to be." He hoped the recipients would remember that the prayers of the people would follow them.-- Augusta Chronicle.
