Neither of them had been used for any other purpose than as a guard to the creek, to prevent the escape of slaves since the commencement of the war. After a shot or two from their cannon at the house of Mrs. Fitchett, a widow lady residing on the creek, they essayed to depart; but one of their steamers getting aground, afforded time to our people to assemble.
