otton coming down to attack our batteries, the fight became severe and general. The gallant Buchanan was one of the first to fall. He was standing forward, spyglass in hand, a motionless target for the deadly missiles of the hidden enemy. W. D. Brown, Acting Chief-Engineer, who was near him at the time, having received a spent ball in the thigh, the Commodore said: Al! You've got it. The very next moment a ball struck Buchanan in the right cheek, immediately below the temple, passing thr, but it was a rashness which will endear his heroic name forever. The following are the names of the others who suffered on this occasion on board the Calhoun and Kinsman: Charles Daverich,(seaman,) Wm. Neilson, (landsman,) both killed; W. D. Brown, (acting Chief-Engineer,) slightly wounded; H. D. Foster, (Ensign,) badly wounded in the right cheek; John Lewis, Quartermaster, and Geo. Perkins, acting Quartermaster, both wounded while in the wheel-house; Wm. Adams, Coxswain; James Williams

Fredericksburg, or in the angle at Spotsylvania Courthouse. I think I am conservative in saying that General Gibbon lost 1,200 men killed outright around Fort Gregg. The following named members of the Claiborne Guards, Company K, 12th Mississippi Regiment, were in Fort Gregg, and assisted in its defense: Captain A. K. Jones, Corporal H. K. Fuller, H. M. Colson, W. W. Coutch, H. W. Porter, J. H. Roberts, A. J. Sevier, G. W. H. Shaifer, J. H. Simms, W. R. Thompson, and Pearson Wells. W. D. Brown was wounded before we got into the fort, and did not enter, but went on to the rear. John H. Roberts was shot some minutes after the capture of the fort, as many of our men were. For some time the Natchez Fencibles, Company G, were attached to Company K, and both regarded as one company. There were of the Natchez Fencibles present in Fort Gregg: Lieutenant Glasscock, Sergeant Barlow, Sergeant Lecand, Corporal Murray, Naftel Underwood, Joseph Vandyke, and West. O'Brien and Pode

The first response. --We are glad to record as the first response to the call of reinforcements for Jackson the company of Chesapeake Artillery, Capt. W. D. Brown, who, after full reorganization leaves in a few days to join the victorious army of the Potomac. The command numbers nearly an hundred men, with four rifled pieces, and being composed of Marylanders exclusively, the object in attaching themselves to the command is obvious. "Maryland, My Maryland" is to be changed to "Home Again."

Federal Outrages on the Mississippi. --The Vicksburg Whig, of May 23d, says: We learn that a marauding party from the Federal boats moored below this city, after killing hogs and cattle on the plantation of Brown & Johnston, on the Louisiana side, took their skiffs across the levee, and went to the farm house to plunder, when Mr. George W. Johnston, a brother of the banker, who was on the place, warned them off, telling them they had killed his cattle, &c., and to be satisfied with them, but they must not enter his house for plunder. Upon their attempt to enter forcibly, Mr. Johnston killed one of them, when the party fired upon and killed Mr. Johnston instantly. The party than took their dying comrade, and also the overseer, Mr. Martin, and John Periani, another man on the place, and went back to the gunboats, having Martin and Perrani in irons. The commanding officer, on examination of the facts, released the two men and sent them back to the place, telling them he co

The remainder of the infantry charged upon the enemy's batteries, several of which could not be seen until they entered the wood, where they came suddenly upon a large infantry force that had lain concealed from the commencement of the fight. This force opened fire upon our men with frightful effect. The slaughter at this point was very great, more than one half the men of the 28th New York were killed and wounded. Col. Donnelly, commanding, was mortally wounded; the Lieutenant-Colonel, Brown, and the Major, are both wounded, and there is not a Captain of a company left the regiment. The 10th Maine lost about one hundred and fifty in killed and wounded; the 5th Connecticut suffered similarly, besides losing Col. Chapman, who was taken prisoner. The 46th Pennsylvania had hardly enough men left to form a full company. Col. Knipe was wounded in the head and in the arm, but not fatally; Lieut-Col. Seltridge was slightly injured, and the Major was shot through his arm. But in th
