iven whenever a well directed shot was observed to strike. They clung to the rigging like bees to a hive, in clusters as close as they could cling. Their dark figures were clearly defined on the western sky, lighted by the afternoon sun. The water was perfectly still, reflecting the ships and their loaded spars, adding greatly to the striking appearance of the scene. The gunboats of the naval squadron under command of Flag-Officer Goldsborough, with their armaments, are as follows: Southfield, (flag-ship,) armament, three nine-inch shell guns and one one-hundred-pounder rifled gun; Delaware, one nine-inch shell gun; Stars and Stripes, four eight-inch shell guns, one twenty-pounder Parrott gun, and two Dalghren boat-howitzers; Louisiana, two heavy thirty-two pounders and twenty-eight-inch shell guns; Hetzel, one nine-inch shell gun and one eighty-pounder rifled gun; Commodore Perry, two nine-inch shell guns; Underwriter, one eight-inch gun and one eighty-pounder rifled gun; Vall

Maggi, at Roanoke Island, on the seventh day of February. Hee hundred-pound Parrott, sent terrific messengers into the gunboat and the battery. The gunboats of the coast division, under the direction of Commander Hazard, U. S.N., did excellent service.

oners at this house. The wounded rebels were carried about two miles to the rear, to a farm-house on the eastern shore, at Shallowbag Bay. The following were among the number: O. Jennings Wise, captain in the Fifty-ninth Virginia regiment, (Wise's Legion,) wounded four times; once in a boat in which he was being taken to Nag's Head. He has since died. He is a son of Gov. Wise, of Virginia. E. Allen Quigley, Co. K, Wise Legion, slightly wounded. J. T. Sloan, of Salisbury, Roanoke County, N. C., a member of the Eighth North--Carolina regiment, wounded in the arm. George Groves, Wise Legion, in the head. James Groves, Wise Legion. James Kay, Wise Legion, badly. Six others lay wounded in one room, and five or six were being operated on in the kitchen of the house used for the hospital. One wounded man lay in the same room with Capt. Wise, and several up-stairs. The body of Wm. B. Selden was found within the field-work pierced through the head by a bullet.

our lines under a white flag, causing our men to mistake it for a surrender. They arose and gave three cheers, and the enemy fired upon them in the act of cheering. They then en masse literally crowded upon and crushed our battery of field-pieces, and about the same time the enemy passed through the cypress swamp which Col. Shaw thought impassable, and turned the right flank. They also turned the left after Capts. Wise and Coles fell, and thus cut off the retreat of our forces across Roanoke Sound to the beach, and thus the struggle ended about one P. M., but the fighting was kept up irregularly all that day and part of Sunday. Col. Shaw ordered a retreat early, and Col. Jordan's men were completely demoralized by his order to take care of themselves. Lieut.-Col. Green and Major Fry never got into action. Thus four hundred and fifty men of the Wise Legion and North-Carolina infantry, fought upwards of five thousand of the enemy, at an in defensible place for five hours and a

island, resulting in the capture of the prisoners mentioned above. We have had no time to count them, but the number is estimated at near three thousand. Our men fought bravely, and have endured most manfully the hardships incident to fighting through swamps and dense thickets. It is impossible to give the details of the engagement, or to mention meritorious officers and men, in the short time allowed for writing this report, the naval vessel carrying it starting immediately for Hampton Roads, and the reports of the Brigadier-Generals have not yet been handed in. It is enough to say that the officers and men of both arms of the service have fought gallantly, and the plans agreed upon before leaving Hatteras were carried out. I will be excused for saying in reference to the action, that I owe everything to Generals Foster, Reno and Parker, as more full details will show. I am sorry to report the loss of about thirty-five killed, and about two hundred wounded, ten of the

His regiment had been stationed at Fort Hill, near Washington, until ordered to North-Carolina. His estimate of the forces on the Island was three thousand two hundred rebels. The body of Capt. Robert Coles, of the Second regiment, Wise Legion, was also found inside the stormed work. A bullet passed
