The News from Pensacola.

The following is an official dispatch received last evening at the War Department, from which it is reasonable to infer that the Federals got the worst of it in the two days cannonade:

‘ Cannonville, (Near Pensacola,) one o'clock, P. M. Nov. 23.--The enemy seems to be satisfied and do not re-open their fire. They have fired into our hospital, but my sick had all been removed. Many hot shot and innumerable shells were thrown into the Navy-Yard, with comparatively little damage.

(Signed) Braxton Bragg.
