of the enemy, erected during the preceding night, nearly opposite to Tiptonville. On discovering that the enemy had been at work on the west bank, our gunboats got up steam early in the morning and went out to attack them. The enemy had placed three twenty-four- pounder rifle guns in position, for the purpose of cutting off our communication at Tiptonville, where the land transit across to Island to begins. The gunboats (wooden) engaged were the McRae, Lady Polk, Ivy, Pontchartrain, Livingston, and Marapas. The fight continued some two hours. The fore and aft chains of the Marapas were out by the enemy's shot. They also sent one shot clear through the Gen. Polk, which struck her, or came out, below the water line, but which we have not been able to ascertain. She immediately withdrew, and at last accounts it was found necessary to resort to her pumps to keep the water down. The other boats continued their fire a short time longer, and then withdrew to their anchorage
