The right cheek has been indely smitten, and the left has been turned to tbe same en emy, who has net foiled to infliet donble blows. While wa have fought on the defensive, and while prisoners; of war from the enemy’s ranks have motived the most favorable treatment that we have hern able w afford which hAsibeqaenily depnVed our own wounded sol diers of comforts and attentions due them, our enemy has porsacdm widely different course.

Indeed il would seem that if wc wcinld fartiu vbrtnc nourish the eqsirik chivalry, and cherish the principles which are the birthright of every true man; we must exercise that first, strongest and fost instinct, Which God has planted deep in tbe nstnre of every species of animat'd, creo- tnres to prompt then to seWdefeute, br the use of every means that ts pot in their power.

' ! 1 have jnst learned "that Gon.

Our forces occupied the ground last night, and have renewed the attack this morning. Oar troop3 are said to have behaved, splendidly. General Sherman hea moveil his division, by means of trans ports, about fanrlesn mPes up the river, in or der to operate directly against the right ll itik of the enemy. These attacks are merely a commencement of the grand affair that fo to come off to-uoirow or Monday.

She maniged to return In a point just above the upper ball cry, where she sunk in fifteen feet of water. From fifteen to forty are reported killed, drowndeif and wounded. , The following description of the gunboat Cin- riunati is given ih the Herald. We htvo information that the IT. 8. gunboat Cincinnati has liecu sunk by the rebel batteriea. at Vicksburg. She was one of the seven built at the commencement of tho war, at St. Louis Her dimension I were aa follows : Length, 175 feet; breadth, 51J feel ; depth of hold, °ix feet; draught of water; with every- iliing.on bdatd, six feet three inches; thickness ot bottom plank, five inches ; thickness of li ning plank, three inches; thickness ol side plank, lour inches; thickness of deck plank four and a half invites ; flooring timber, te.n in ches square. She was flit bottomed and with out a keel, like all vo-mcI.s used in navigating ihe shallow waters ol Western rivers. Her sides spread cu: from tbe bottom at an angle of foiiy- tire degrees from the perpendicular until ihe detk nas reiehod when they lell in it tbe same augle.. This arrangement was intended to secure tho glancing of shot—those striking behw, the -tack being deflected inter the water, while those striking above would be throw u off into the &■> and over the boat. Tbe sideS above the main deck were called the casemates, and this cremating was carried across tbe deck at the bow and also at the fturn, presenting at all parts the same angle. From the top of the cw>ema'ea ihe upper deck was elevated about seven feet almve the gun deck, and made proof against any thing less than a twelve pound shot. The forwardca-.'-matcs were pierced for three guns, wete twenty-six inches in thick- neon, nud plated with boiler iron two ami a half inches thick. The after casemates were pierced for two gnn9, an.I in thickness and plating write similar to the forward ones. 'The ride casemates were of timber; ten inches thick, and, with the exception of sixty feet, were plated with hall inch iron. These sixty feet eaclocel the tp~.ee occupied by the engines, and were covered two and a half inch iron, whitft extended, two feet below the water.—! Oas hundred ant twenty toes cf iron-were used in building her: Thia peculiar construe tion produced a craft similar to nothing else afl -at, and resembles nothing on land except a big turtle. She ha l two independent engines, with cylin detanf six feerstroke asl twenty-two inches diameter. * Her wheel was placed a recess ia the fftern of the boat, inside the caiaaiafrn 1 . thereby insuring ita protection from shot and shell- It was, with Ihe exception of the pad dies, of iron, fine cost about $120,005, and w *= ■- £ ■ every retpe* t, at.
