In the fight at Pocotaligo, it appears that the enemy's force consisted of detachments of eight regiments from Pennsylvania, New-Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Connecticut. Each detachment numbered four hundred men, so that the attacking force of infantry consisted of about three thousand two hundred men, beside which there was a full battery of field-pieces and two boathowitzers. These troops were commanded by Brig.-Gen. Terry. Having effected their landing at an early hour and driven in our pickets, the Yankees advanced rapidly toward the railroad. The Charleston Mercury says: They first encountered our forces about eleven o'clock A. M., and the fighting was kept up with more or less spirit from that time until five o'clock P.

And here I may as wehen just ahead. The cry was: Help, oh! Help! Help, oh! Help! Man overboard, called out Lieutenant Terry; throw him a rope. But, poor fellow, who could assist him in such a strait? We were in acwith the port-gun. The gun was got ready and pointed, and was about to be discharged, when Lieutenant Terry called out: Hold on; you are about to fire into the Hartford. And such was the fact; for t a desultory manner. The starboard bow-gun could no longer be brought to bear. Consequently Lieut. Terry ordered the men on the top-gallant forecastle to leave the guns in that part of the ship, andoke, rendering it next to impossible for the pilot to know where to put the vessel's head. Lieutenant Terry, therefore, stationed himself at the head of the ship, where there was a better chance of p
