Tho Yanko fleet consisted of seventy
boats of various discretions—gun boats,
mortar boats, steam frigates, &c. The
defonco of Now Orleans rested upon
two forts, Jackson and St. Philip, a
few inferior batteries ribovo tho forts,
and a fleet of twenty boats, tho strong'
est which were tho Me Rat (carrying
seven 32-pounders and ono O.-inch gun),
and tho Manassas Ram. The Louisiana
(carrying eight large guns) was a com
plete fuilure. Sho had to bo towed
down the river and used as a floating
battery, for the two largo wheels work

enemy
said to have passed by without the
knowledge of the fart. Tho river is
bout a mile wide and covered with
heavy fog at night. The naval engage
ment extended for some miles up the
river. Exchanges of broadsides and
collisions were continuous, until but
one of the Confederate boats—a stoam
hulk with ono gun—returned to tho
city, and was burned and turned adrift.
A Galveston steamer sunk one of tho
best of tho Yankee gunboats alter run
ning into her three times'.' Sho was
soon sunk herself. Tho Me Rae was
seen gallantly exchanging broadside
for broadside Vfith two double-banIc
frigates. Sh# was commanded by Capt
Tom Huger, of Charleston, nnd was
sunk. Her commander is said to bo
in New Orleans, wounded, having
saved his life in ono of the small bqnts,
it is supposed. The Manassas, command
ed bv Lieut. Warlkv. of South Caroli
na, disappeared, but it was not known
whether sho botook herself, to ono of
tho bayous, was captured or sunk. The
conduct of the Confederate Navy was
desperato in gallantry and devotion
displayed. Hut their light was hope
less from the boginning. The great
Mississippi steam, ram had just Loon
launched a fow days, and would not
have been ready to operate for forty
days more) She was a propeller, with
three screws and sixteen engines, to
carry twenty guns of the largest calibro.
Her projection, or ram, was twenty feet
of solid timber, to bo shod with an ad
ditional Blcel point. Sho was three
times as large and powerful as tho T 7 iV-
finia, floated beautifully, and was sea
going. All the naval officers who saw
her say that alio was tho finest ship in
the world, nnd it is confidently asserted
by officers of high rank, that without a
gun sho could liavo destroyed tho wliolo
Yankee fleet. She was to have been
ready by the 1st of February. The
contractor was a M, Tift, a brother-in-
law of Mr. Mallorv. The wood-work
was finished long a go, amt thero has
been great anxioty and impatience
about the dilatory manner of complet

$100,000 bounty was, some time since,
offered to tho contractor to get it ready

of citizens, that his hands were tied and
that ho could do no moro than ho was

To the Southern Cu.nteukracv :
Your notice in this morning’s paper
suggests tho propriety of a briol state
ment of facts concerning tho burning
9f tho Railroad Briclgb four miles be
yond Chattanooga, on the Nashville it
Chattanooga Railroad, over Lookout
Creek.
They aro these: On tho 2d instant,
Gen. Reynolds, second in command nt
Chattanooga, took a position at White-
sides, on tho N. & C. Railroad, Li miles
beyond Chattanooga, with two regi
ments of infantry, Col. McConnell’s
and Col. Harris’—the samo that relrc-a-
appearanco of tho Yankeo ships at
New Orleans, Gov. Mooro quietly de
parted with his oliief cousollors by way
of Carollton Railroad, about dark, hav
ing a stoamboat and picket of soldiers
■at that point. Anoymous letters prob.
ably corned if. Two days before tho
surrender of the city andexcited crowd,
prepared.with a,rope, appeared at the
ship-yard in search of the contractor of
Gen. Rehynolds’ object, as 1 was in-
tored, was to hold tho enemy in chock
or pursue them at Bridgeport, ns might
bo advisable. ITe took with him two
trains from Chattanooga.' On the samo
day, 2d inst., at about 5 o’clock, p. m.,
a third train went from Chattanooga
to Whitesides, taking about fifty men
from Ringgold and Dalton, volunteers
for tho special occasion, commanded
by Capts. Spray berry nnd Jackson.—
These arrived at Whitesides about sun
down. It was understood nnd expect
ed by those who went down on tho
Inst train, that they would join Gen.
Reynolds’ command nt Whitesides,
who wou'd.go down next morning be
fore day to Bridgeport, and capture
300 of the enemy who were understood
to be on this side of the bridge, then
proceed to .Stevenson nnd tako that
place also.
Proper steps had beon taken to ud-
wise nt Bridgeport next morning of the
exnct strength of tho enemy at Ste
venson.
Col. Gionri’s Regiment then at Chat
tanooga, was expected to go down to
Bridgeport, next morning. Gen. Rey
nolds, witli tho entire command mid
tho three trains, returned towards
Chattanooga nt ten o'clock that night.
On the 2d hist., the ekty Gen. Reyn
olds went to Whitesides, the enemy
moved forward from Bridgeport, ono
thousand men, to Huntsville, lonving
tour to livo hundred inch there ul
Bridgeport, with two rifle cannon and
tho two cannon which they took from
Gen. Ledbetter.
On tho siiuie day, or the night be
fore, 1,000 of tho enemy left Stovtmson
for Hunisv'llo, leaving 000 ruen -Col.
Rnttee’s 3d Ohio Regiment—-at Steven
son to defend it. Of the 400 men left
ut Bridgeport, 400 remaiued on this,
the east side of tho river. On'the 3d
instant, after leaving Bridgeport, tho
enemy burnt the,west end of tho Ton-
nesseo River Bridge, which Gen. Led
better failed to accomplish. Suoli was
tho stato of facts when Gen. Reynolds
retreated to Chattanooga at ten o'clock
at night.
Tho reason for tho retreat was this :
It had been rep'ortod to him that tho
enemy was crossing ut Kelly’s
Ferry. He hud sent a courior to know
tho facts. Tho courier reported “no
enomy thereabout) but a rumor that
0,000 of tho enemy hud grossed else
whore, going to ClmUnnoogu.” Gen.
Reynolds was then within 110 miles
of all tho crossings as far down ns
Rankin’s Ferry. He tolegrupliod the
report of his courier to Gen. Ledbet
ter nt Chattanooga, who replied, in
structing .him (Gen.-Reynolds) that “if
he believed tho report of tho crossing
of 5,000 to bo roliuble, ho would full
back to tho point of tho mountains
near Chattanooga, and to burn tho
bridges behind him.” Gem Reynolds,
thereafter, as stated, fell back nine
miles to the junction of tho Wills
Valley Rond, about two miles from tho.
point of the mountains, and early next
morning occupied the point, having
crossed the bridge over Lookout Greek.
Ho advised Gen. Ledbetter that ho
had not burnt any of the bridges,
thing*it not necessary. Gen. Lea hot
ter ordered the bridge over Lookout
Creek to be burnt, lie also ordered

The Duty of'Repontahcc oml Uesig-
nntion.
We liavo fallon upon troublous
times. While some lioarts are bleeding
under bcrcavemonts, caused by the
present strife, others aro aching with
anxiety for the objects of thoir love,
who are girdotl for tho battle, nnd pre
pared to go forth to tho field of blood.
First obliged to part with luxuries,
comforts were afterwards removed from
beyond our reach, and now wo must be
content with homely necessaries.—
Homesteads havo been abandoned, nnd
tho inmates obliged to tako relugefrom
tho spoiler under tho roofs of strangers-
Those who Counted their possessions
by thousands have been reduced to
want, and many contemplate with dis
quieted minds, tho probability of being
deprived of (hose means whereby they
maintain wife and child.
Wo are now experiencing some ol tho
evils of war, and wo feel that they aro
the most terrible of all tho rods which
God stretches out over a people, in
punishment of thoir wickedness. Wo
must not overlook tho vitnl fact that
our transgressions nnd obstinacy and
ingratitude, liavo caused tho Judge of
all tl\e earth, to inflict upon us this tho
heaviest of nil calamities, it is true
that all aro not guilty to tho samo ex
tent, many are free from the more
heinous iniquities, and in comparison
with atrocious offenders appear righ
teous nnd holy. But none of us aro
unnccused by conscience, and tho
smallest transgression kindles the
wrath of Heaven, and deserves eternal
punishment. More tcnlporniy evils
such as nileet the body, no matter how
numerous and bow grievous, cannot
ntono for tho most indifferent misde
meanor or delinquency. For every sin
is an insult and indignity offered to
Jehovah, an open expression of con
tempt for Ills authority, a breaoh of bis
honor. Every infructioinof the Divine
law is an act of rebellion, which, unless
repented of and forgiven, tho Almigh
ty Sovereign must punish .vitli fitting
retribution.
Tho judgments we aro groaning nu
clei huyo been visited upon us in our
nati.flop,i*capacity. The transgressions
which have cried to Heaven agaliist us
anil rtl'udo the 'Divide anger to burn as
a devouring flame, are the iniquities
and omissions of a people. And this
terrible aggregate is made up of indi
vidual sins. How incalculable their
number! Wlint a terrible forco stands
arrayed against us ! It' wo are appalled
aim distressed, when wo count over
tho offences we commit in a single day,
or when wo call to mind tho Bins of
which otliors uro guilty, what terror
must seize our souls, when we contem
plate tho long black catalogue of crimes
which the recording angel has written
down against us as u nation !

the Mississippi. Ife was gone. The tho bridge for this wagon road at tho
Mississippi was burned and sunk by the
authorities.
Our informant states that there is a
feeling of profound exasperation.against
the Administration and its agents? T’lio
people feel that they have beon system
atically trifled with and sacrifice!. When
tho Yankeo officers landed, five Sicili
ans, who cheered them, was shot dowa
by the crowd. All who sliowod any
signs of favor were knocked down as
traitors. The foelinfi was intenso. All
the cotton was burned, and all the to
bacco, except that claimed by tho
French Government. The sugar and
molasses remains in tho city, as private
property, in immense quantities. Much,
however, is on the plantations still;
tho crop being very large. Gen. Lov
ell carried off, by railroad, tho machin
ery of tho workshops and iron mills',
anil all tho rolling stock of tho railroad.
Tho machinery is important, and enti
tles him to’credic. In preparation for
the defence of tho city ho has oithrr
been permitted to do little, or has done
little of his own accord. His forces aro
at a camp of instruction at- Jackson,
Mississippi, protecting the railroad
whore it cosses Pearl River. He is not
expected to reinforce Beauregard, ex
cept as a, reserve corps. His forces are
said to : be about twenty thousand.
1 W6iv<j thousand foreign denizens in
New Orleans had organized to fight in
defense of New Orleans, hut declined
going to fight in the Confederate cause.
Recruits have been pouving in to

The wagon road budge was destroyed
promptly. Tho bridgo over Lookout
Creek was burnt nt three .o’clock, p.
m., every person that past it protesting
aguint it.
The undersigned passed over it nt
2 o’clock, p. in., before it was burnt,"
and requested that it might bo spared
until he could seo Gon. Ledbetter. It
was burnt before ho arrived in Chat
tanooga, where Gen. Ledbetter was.
Wo understand that Gon. Ledbetter’s
orders from Gen. Kirby Smith were to
burn the bridges if the enemy advanc
ed on Chateanoogn. It is duo to Gen.
Ledbetter to say that the retreat of
Gen. Reynolds from Whitesides to
wards Chattanooga at ton o’clock the
night \ previous after receipt of tho
order "to fall back to the point of the
mountain if ho deemed' tko report of
the enemy’s crossing with 5,000 relia
ble,’’ would load Gen. Ledbetter to but
one conclusion, which was that lie
might roly on tlio report ns true—on
tho truth of which liis orders from
Gen. Smith were to burn tho bridges,
and he therefore) ordered it. Thus far
he would . seem to be excusable. It is
true, also, that seyoral hours before
that bridgo was burnt, lie was fully ad
yised that the reasons for burning it
had failed, sinco tliero was no enomy
nearer than Bridgeport. No 5,000 had
crossed tho river, and most that lind
boon at Bridgeport and Stevenson had
gone to Huntsuillo, and had that mor
ning burnt the west end of ute Ten

Under these circumstances it was
When we consider tlio number and
enormity of our transgressions, wo are
obliged to acknowledge that our suffer
ings liavo .thus tin been light—Unit
there is no proportion ' between our
crimes and the strokes of tho afflicting
rod. And this knowledge should cause
us to apprehend yet* niti'iiy direful ca
lamities, if we continue to provokcGod
to anger by breaking His lmly com
mandments and refusing to amend our
ways. It is made the bounden duty of
all to confess and forsake our sins —
Wo must break in pieces the idols we
aro worshipping in stead of God; we
must sever tho bonds that bind us
to vicious habits; wo must weep bitter
tears over our transgressions nnd short
comings, and beseech God to grant us
grace whereby we may walk before him
in the exercise of a lively faith—in the
practice of every virtue?—in tho per-
ibrmanco of every duly.
Wo aro disposed to murmur at the
evils wo arc cant’d upon to bear. It
seems hard according to our foolish way
of thinking, that in tlio prosecution of
a purpose so noble and just, as tho ono
which 1ms forced us into the present
contest-, wo should bo required to en
dure so many privations, hardships, and
woes. If wo will consisder the iniqui
ties and sins which have lighted tho lire
of God’s anger, their number, their
blacknesp, their wnntonoss, wo will bo
smitten dumb, and our murmuring
will appear to us, as it really is, one of
the most enormous of our great trans
gressions. Instead of charging God with
harshness and cruolty, and wickedly
calling in question bis justico and lov
ing kindness, trembling under a sense
of our gufft, we would fall prostrate in
tho dust, bewail our offences, and dep
recate severer chastisement. Profound
and hearty conviotion will fill our
hearts with adoring gratitude to God
for not having meted out to ns tlio full
measure of tho punishment we deserve
nnd make us ashamed of our com
plaints, nnd we wo shall be jesjgnod to
