Towards morning, owing to frequent use of opiates and anodynes, they became easier, and I went down to the battery to see the result of the bombardment. It was after two o'clock in the morning. Passing by the quarters of Major Hill, we found the gallant officer already up and preparing for the forthcoming fight. By him was Capt. Taylor, C. S. A., the officer in general charge of the ordnance on the island, and also Lts. Talcott and Loyall, all of whom fought nobly and bravely during the engagement. The night was intensely dark and misty. The light of the burning huts reflected its red glare upon the ramparts of the fort, and showed us where the enemy's shots had taken effect.--Just below us was the beach, up which the little waves washed musically, and far beyond the lanterns hung in the rigging of the ships indicating where they lay at anchor. We went through the work examining every embrasure, the magazine, parapet, gun

ime I feel at liberty to say but little, owing to the terms of my parole. To relieve public anxiety as to the result of the fight, I will premise a little, and give the list of killed and wounded on our side to-day, although it properly belongs to the succeeding letter.

Immediately in front was the "Fanny," with the gallant Taylor, actively working his gun, and beyond the "Beaufort," Captain Parker, and the "Sea Bird," the flag-ship of Commodore Lynch, and the others whose names I could not distinguish at the time. All acted nobly. All fought li gunboats could not be silenced, and continued the fight as actively as in the morning. --At fifteen minutes past two, the Curlew received a shot which soon after sunk her. She was run up to the opposite shore and her ammunition taken off by the "Fanny," which boat immediately returned into the fight.--At 4 o'clock a small steamer was run ashore below the Pork Point battery, and the landing of troops begun. Only one gun in Fort Bartow could bear upon the point, and it was kept engaged by a gun
