engaging and finally driving them before him with such rapidity that they were compelled to make a stand on Monday at Irish Bend, where a sharp and decisive battle was fought, in which the rebels were defeated and fled into the woods. Three gunboats — the Diana, Hart, and Queen of the West--are no more. The two former were fired in the Teche by the rebels, to prevent them falling into our hands — the former on Monday, the latter on Tuesday--while the Union gunboats Estella, Calhoun, and Arizona, at ten o'clock on Tuesday morning, discovered, attacked and destroyed in Grand Lake the famous iron-clad ram Queen of the West. Three large transports — the Newsboy, Gossamer, and Era No. 2--which were lying at Franklin, were also destroyed by fire, as it was found impossible to get up steam and escape up or down the Teche before our troops would overtake and seize them. The consequence was that, like the Diana and Hart, they were burned to prevent them from falling into our hands. <

The vessels will be ordered to work at it occasionally, and it will be soon destroyed. In this last-mentioned fort was mounted the eleven-inch gun, which, I am led to believe, lies in the middle of the river, near the fort, the rebels throwing it overboard in their panic at the approach of our gunboats. The raft which closed the entrance I have blown up, sawed in two, and presented to the poor of the neighborhood. I sent Commander Woodworth in the Price, with the Switzerland, Pittsburgh, and Arizona, up Black River to make a reconnoissance, and he destroyed a large amount of stores valued at three hundred thousand dollars, consisting of salt, sugar, rum, molasses, tobacco, and bacon. David D. Porter, Acting Rear-Admiral, Commanding Mississippi Squadron Hon. Gideon Welles, Secretary of the Navy.
