The force opposed to us was not large, but had the advantage of position and of making a complete surprise. The total force of the rebels both here and at the batteries below, did not exceed ten thousand men. Our loss was considerable, and that of the enemy must have corresponded with ours. Sibley's brigade was included in this number--two regiments of Texas cavalry, Capt. Sime's battery and the Va and Pelican batteries. The whole force was under the command of Gen Dick Taylor, son of the late Zachary Taylor. At this moment the whole force is retreating from our troops, demoralized and hopeless of their cause. By the time our troops had a rived at New Iberia, nearly five hundred horses, mules and beef cattle, had been collected, and were placed in kraals along the wayside.
