om Bowling Green, under a recent date: Yesterday we had a grand review of the regiments at this place. About 9 o'clock we were mustered out into a field about two miles from the encampment, when our brigade of Tennessean, consisting of Cols Brown's Palmer's, Lillard's Martin's, and Hill's regiments, were drawn up in a line. When Buckner and his aids rode in front and rear, he remarked to Col. Brown that he might well be proud of his regiment. Charles Johnson, one of Gen. B's aids, said Col. Brown that he might well be proud of his regiment. Charles Johnson, one of Gen. B's aids, said that he could take half our regiment and whip Rousseau's brigade. I had a fair view of Gen. Buckner as he road along the line. He was mounted on a Chesnut mare, and I tell you she was a noble animal. I am not much acquainted with soldiering and soldiers. but I will say Gen. Buckner is the most soldier-looking man I ever saw. I would judge that he is about five feet ten inches in height, and would weigh about 150 pounds. His hair is mixed with gray, which makes him look older than he is.

Pensacola, dated Sunday night, Oct. 20. I telegraphed you last night that Lieut. C. Sayre, of the Confederate Marine corps, had been released on parole by Col. Brown, on honor that when his wound would admit he should return to captivity, unless honorably exchanged. I have just left his room; he is in fine humor, and in hisken to the hospital, where he was treated with the utmost kindness by the chief surgeon, the officers of the army, as well as by regulars and Zouave privates. Colonel Brown also visited and conversed with him in the most amiable manner. Lieutenant Sayre will divulge nothing that compromises his honor. All our prisoners, while on the Island, were treated in a similar manner; and it was no doubt gratifying to Colonel Brown to learn that General Bragg has acted in a like manner toward the Federal prisoners in his hands.--Lieut Sayre was brought over on a litter. I send you below a correct list of our wounded and prisoners of war at Fort Pickens, capture

to rush down the beach in force, and, with light draught steamers on the Sound, to take Forts Hatteras and Clark, as they swore that they had built them, and they would have them. And they would have done it had not our regiment run the gauntlet and foiled them. No later than yesterday they chained the United States steamer Strius plump into Hatteras under the very guns of the fort. The excitement was intense. The enemy were preparing to land, our troops waiting to receive them, when Colonel Brown received a peremptory order from Colonel Hawkins to retreat. A meeting of the commissioned officers was called, and it was decided that, under the circumstances. it was most judicious to retreat. And we sorrowfully turned our backs on our camp and prepared for the long march to Hatteras light- house, where we expected reinforcements from Colonel Hawkins It was now 9 o'clock in the morning. A terrible march along the sand beach. The sun was shining on the white sand of the bea
