Our small party of adventurers also went in one of the boats to a place called Fort Landing, and thence traveled eighteen miles on foot to Columbia, in Tyrrel county, N. C. There they embarked in a schooner, and landed at New Hope, where they procured horses and came on to Suffolk, Va. Our informant says that Capt. Wise was living when he left the island, and he learned from Dr. Coles that he was doing well; but there is still reason to apprehend that his wounds terminated fatally. Capt. Wallace, whom he saw after the battle was over, is unhurt, and also Major Lawson. Lieutenant Miller, he thinks, was wounded in the shoulder early in the engagement, but not dangerously. Mr. Desmond gives a glowing description of the brave and gallant conduct of our men, who contested the field for hours, and refused to yield to vastly superior numbers until their ammunition was exhausted.

Mr. Desmond is positive that our whole list of killed and wounded does not exceed one hundred; that of the enemy he could not ascertain, but saw enough to satisfy him that it was very heavy. Our forces retired up the Island, and meanwhile Col. Shaw sent a flag of truce to the enemy to negotiate terms of surrender.--This seems to have been made unconditional, for a message was soon sent to Colonel Anderson to march the men down. A council of officers was held, and the conclusion was very reluctantly arrived at, that as there was no means of escape from the island, nor any use to contend longer, without ammunition, against an overpowering force, it would be best to take the chances of a Federal prison, and they accordingly marched dow
