As I learn to-day, the two sail vessels have anchored opposite the town and sent some men ashore. I have no information as to the force of the enemy and have no clue as yet to his future movements. I have been reinforced to-day by Elmore's regiment, Wilson's battery, and one company of Griffin's battalion, Captain Cook's. I will observe the movements of the enemy and promptly report the result, and shall lose no opportunity of inflicting injury upon him. Your obedient servant, A. W.

Wilson's battery of six pieces was to attack the enemy from the center wharf; the railroad ram was sent to the upper wharf.

f 800 infantry. I had 300 cavalry and a light battery. Having made a reconnoissance and determined to attack, I directed Captain Jones to place one section of his battery in the road under Lieutenant Smith, another under Lieutenant Gregory on the left, supported by Lieutenant Vineyard's detachment. The other section was held in reserve, the guns directed to move in advance of the line. Captain Robinson was placed in command of the main body of cavalry, Anderson's battalion, under Capt. D. W. Wilson, on the right, and Giddings' battalion on the left. Lieutenant Gregory had orders to move under cover of the hills and chaparral to flank the enemy's right, and if possible to get in an enfilading fire. Captain Gibbons' and Cocke's companies were sent to the extreme left, with orders to turn the enemy's right flank. Skirmishers were advanced. The artillery opened fire before the enemy were aware we had guns in the field. Lieut. M. S. Smith threw several well directed shells and ro

Commander Napoleon Collins has been detached from the steamer Wachusett, in which he captured the Florida, and ordered to regard himself as waiting orders. He is to be put through the forms, at least, of a court-martial trial for his seizure of the Florida. In this connection it may be added that Wilson, late Consul at Bahia, who was dismissed on account of his connection with the Florida affair, has been still further punished by being appointed to a consulship in Canada.
