Kong. Aug. 10. Further pariculars
of the fighting on Sunday night at Ma
late, of which news was wired" The Au
gusta Herald yesterday, furnished by
New York Journal representatives who
were in the trenches, states that .he
typhoon which had set in was hard,
the rain which was descending ca.ne
down in torrents, and the night was as
black as a hole in the uni
verse. This was (he situation when
three thousand Spaniards attacked the
American position on its right flank.
The Insurgents, as already told by
wire, had withdrawn for their feast
day celebrations, and their withdrawal
left our right open. But a line of
vigiiani pickets was out, and these men
fired on the Spanish advance and then
retreated, slowly firing as they came
in.

Back to the Attack.
They reformed, however, and came
again. By this time the Americans
were in position and under complete
discipline, and their fire was all the
more deadly. They poured volley af

flashed, and again the enemy retreat

was very techie, and some of the A
mericans pursued their retreat, doing
much execution.
The losses Sustained.
The loss was more than ordinarily
disproportionate, though the exact
Spanish figures cannot be Obtained.
The British admiral says the general
estimate in Manila is that between 300
and 400 Spaniards were killed and
nearly 1.000 wounded. These figures
are altogether possible, even in a night
engagement, as there was between
three ana« four hours’ continuous fight-

Battling Like Heroes.
When the First California and the

no flinching nor wavering.
They found that the Tenth Pennsyl
