Skirmish in North Carolina. --On the 27th ult., a Federal force of 500 infantry, with cavalry and artillery, attempted to cross White Oak river, in Onslow county, N. C. They were met by 125 of our cavalry, commanded by Capt. E. D. Ward. The Wilmington Journal says: The fight lasted about three hours, when Captain Ward fell back a short distance out of the range of their artillery. They continued to shell the woods until near dark, when they fell back. In the engagement we had one man, Sergeant Williams, of the Gatlin Dragoons, wounded in both legs, and one horse wounded by the bursting of a shell. Captain Ward learns from citizens along the line of the enemy's retreat, that we killed two dead on the spot, wounded eleven badly, and several more slightly.--Among those badly was their Colonel, who was shot from his horse. They curse our "two-barrelled cavalry," and say they want shot guns, too. They fell back about seven miles, to Mrs. Bryan's, where they met more of thei
