A Port Royal correspondent of the Boston Journal relates the following:
Quite an amusing story is told in connection with the affair at Brunswick.
It seems that the gunboats, after reconnoitring awhile in front of the rebel fortifications, got into posish, and were about to let slip the dogs, when they discovered a boat push off from the shore at the fort and make directly for the gunboat, upon nearing which it was found to contain a couple of contrabands, who commenced yelling: Hold on, Massa Yankee, don't fire, der sogers all gone to Serwarner, dase leff me all alone.
And sure enough they had gone, and the anticipated sport was nipped.
