At an early stage of the proceedings General Beauregard and staff, and Brig.-General Gist and staff, arrived and took position on the upper deck, which, being elevated soméclat which inspired confidence and gave an accelerated impulse to our holy cause. It conferred name and fame, too, on Beauregard and Ripley, inspiring confidence in them as our leaders, and it proved the grave of the reputation of the renegade Kentuth-Carolina.

in successive lines, carrying off their dead and wounded, and leaving no arms or ammunition on the field. Of the exact force of the rebels, of course, we know nothing, although Gen. Brannan was of the opinion that it equalled our own. Certainly their artillery exceeded ours by four or five pieces, and this we have from the seven prisoners taken, one of whom, Wm. Judd, belonged to company B, Second South-Carolina cavalry, whose horse was also captured. The prisoners informed us that General Beauregard commanded in person. While these events were taking place between the main forces on either side, Colonel Barton, of the Forty-eighth New-York, with three hundred of his own men and fifty of the Third Rhode Island regiment, under command of Capt. J. H. Gould, went up the Coosahatchie River, convoyed by the Patroon, to within two miles of the town of the same name. Landing this force here, a march was made to the village through which runs the railroad. Arrived there, they commence

Rebel reports and Narratives. General Beauregard's despatch. Charleston, S. C., Oct. 28. The abolitionists attacked in force Pocotaligo and Coosahatchie yesterday. They were gallantly repulsed to their gunboats at Mackay's Point and Bee's Creek Landing, by Col. W. S. Walker, commanding the district, and Col. G. P. Harrison, commanding the troops sent from here. The enemy had come in thirteen transports and gunboats. The Charleston and Savannah Railroad is uninjured. The abolitionists left their dead and wounded on the field, and our cavalry are in hot pursuit. G. T. Beauregard, General Commanding. Richmond Dispatch account. Richmond, October 31, 1862. In the fight at Pocotaligo, it appears that the enemy's force consisted of detachments of eight regiments from Pennsylvania, New-Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Connecticut. Each detachment numbered four hundred men, so that the attacking force of infantry consisted of about three thousand two hundred men, bes

me. We lost nearly three hundred men in crossing the water and cleaning out the town. Several houses were fired by our bombs, but for hours they burned slowly, as they were nearly all composed of brick. Just before sundown the fire in the town burned more briskly. The enemy opened a few batteries upon our men in the town and on the banks adjacent, throwing shells at the troops whom they could see pressing on to the pontoons. Our batteries, right and left, replied, and there was what Beauregard calls an artillery duel. The scene as the sun went down certainly had the elements of sublimity. The horizon was hazy as on a day of Indian summer. The sun, sinking in a sky of royal purple, looked like a big drop of arterial blood. The quick rush of the smoke from our batteries on the hills, along a semi-circle miles in extent, was plainly visible, half a dozen fountains of sulphurous vapor playing horizontally. The vehement vibration of the bombs in their flight could be felt in the

e. A large number of these shells exploded within the Fort, and there must have been considerable loss of life. Their guns, except when run forward to fire, were entirely out of sight of our gunners, consequently there was but little opportunity of dismounting them unless the immense earth-works in front could have been dismantled. The shells and shot of the enemy when they struck in the water near the monitors would send immense bodies of water flying over their decks and turrets. Beauregard is said to have been in the Fort during the whole siege, assisting in its defence. The rebels had large supporting forces near at hand to meet any troops that might land. The scene was very exciting, and amid the din and noise of battle we all felt a confidence in the result, so far as the safety of our iron fleet was concerned, even if they should fail in reducing the Fort. Their invulnerability to the projectiles of the enemy had been fully ascertained by the previous conflicts of C

ed a great relief to all on board the unfortunate steamer. We anchored for the night in the channel. During the day, the rebel batteries at Light-House Inlet, or Folly Island, four or five miles distant, tried the range of their guns upon us. The range was too long, and their shells exploded harmless on the beach, a mile or two short of us. At night, the rebel lookouts on Folly Island fired rockets, emitting red fire, at intervals. This appeared to be a signal of warning, either to Gen. Beauregard that the Yankees were approaching, or to warn off contraband blockade-runners. On Friday morning, the twenty-eighth instant, the Belvidere and Expounder steamed into Stono River, opposite Coles's Island. Under the direction of Commander Balch, of the Pawnee, they took anchorage within a few hundred yards of the centre of the island. The steamers' boats, with those from the gunboats, were all brought into use at eight o'clock A. M. The troops commenced disembarking. Major D. D. Nas
