Editors: The enemy landed with their gunboats near Indian Mound, about a week ago; and moved down on Saturday night last, (28th ult.,j to tho vicinity of the old race track, thus extending their line to the bank of the Mississippi, a mile and a half further South. Early on Monday morn ing a force appeared'in the fallen timbers in front of the old race truck, in the bend above the city. Our artillery on the hillB above discovering their position, opened fire upon them, as did the infantry stationed in the flat along the edge of the timber which had been cut down to obstruct their passage. After two hours skirmishing, the enemy were forced to retire into the woods; but our ar tillery on tho hills continued to favor them with occasional shells all day. In Monday’s tight our forces, commanded by Brig-Gen Lee, on our right, achieved a glorious victory. Ths 3d aud 30th Tennes see, and 28th Louisiana regiments, bohaved most gallantly, and won undying fame. The rout of the enemy was complete. On the 3d Charge at our works, our boys greeted them with one dreadful sheet of fire from the in fantry and artillery—the iron hail annihila ting the leading ranks, and compelling them to tail baok in confusion and disorder, when our troops followed after, pouring volley af ter volley into their ranks, capturing four hundred prisoners and five stand of colors. The prisoners and colors passed ns on Mon day evening about .our o’clock.

Ho replied _if we would not shoot him he would meet me half way and give me a drink. After seme little hes itation on the part of the Colonel, he con sented for mo to go. I leaped over the em bankment und we met on half way ground. We shook handB, and I took a Bplendid drink of whisky with him and exchanged a button off of my coat for one from his, and we part- ed, hoping that the war would soon end.— Hurrying back at tho rifle pits we continued our conversation in tho distance, speaking freely about the war. He told me that Jeff. Davis wps an unfair man; bat that they would have given it up long ago, but that the men with the stripes on their shoulders who kept up the war. Their officers told them we were perishing to death, but they did not be ieye it. After this myself, Major Moore, Capt. Asbury and others met (hem on sever al occasions, and conversed freely. vYe rflet a Lieutenant and a Captain, of the 54th i. hio, and drank with them, when we were ordered to retire to oar quarters or we would be fired upon. During the day we gathered up all the spoilu of the fight, getting 17 Minnie mus kets, oil cloths, canteens, cartridge boxes, and haversacks. I captured eight guns, ten cartridge boxes, four haversacks full of pro visions, and a number of canteens and oap boxes. Iu tho haversacks we found ham, meat and coffee (ground) crackers. We had coffee this morning for breakfast and sup pose we have enough to last us till we have another fight, which will be soon. Our gallant Colonel, who proved himself wor thy of the position ho holds, and Adjutant Quii- iain came very near getting shot several times —tho bullets brushing them. Lieut. Col. Bell.ot the 43d Georgia is slightly wounded in the leg. Fortieth Georgia. . Company A— J_H Roach, killed. Wounded “Mortens. ^ _ were acting us a reserve, that we would soon be into it, our breast works in front being occupied by the 4th Ga. and 31st Louisiana. - In a lew minutes a courier informed tho Gen. that the enemy had made several successful charges on our breast« works, and that they were then cutting through, and if we did not have reinforcements soon they would take the works. This news surprised the General as he thought the works could not be takeu by any force. He immediately order ed the Colonel oi the 52d Georgia with his first three companies 10 re inforce the works. The Colonel desiring logo with the remainder of the regiment sent Maj- ivloore, who with undaunted bravery led hi* im-ii to the works, without los ing one—notwitliBiutiuing the bullet* were luil- ■ug as thick us a storm ot hail. 1 he boys had not more tfiau emerea the .u-.k* when- they fired a volley upon me enemy, who were sent under our breast works, in ten .tic style. Vol ley alter volley was Iiretl—the enemy mean while playing upon ua with iheir urtillery. ..The bullets from ijje enemy fired atour battery whiz zing over us and cutting the limbs above us where we were secreted behind the hill in a ravine which led to our works. Here one man had his canteen struck with a bullet, and one of Co.<F, James Warloy, of Rabun, was wounded in the chin, but not seriously. Another dispatch reach the General that the enemy were coming in superior numbers, and our force needed support, and that several were killed. He ordered our gallant Colonel, C. D. Phillips, whom we huve great confidence in and whom the men all love, and would follow any where, to take the remainder of the regiment as a reinforcement. All being ordered into line we proceeded dow n the ravine to our works, amid terrific firing from the enemy’s cannon and small arm*. We reached the works withont the loss of a man. As soon as we recalled the works our boys mounted the embankment and fired a terrific volley upon the enemy, [your cor respondent fired the first, shot,] who were stand ing by hundreds within fifty yards of us, at tempting to cut through our works, tearing tip the uirt in front ot us anu knocking it in our faces, and we sweeping them into eternity like chaff’ betore a burning fire. Our boys showed unflinching bravery, and shots fired by the “Bay’s Guards” lrom Dahlonega, and Captain K. R. Asbury’s company from the same place, were a terror to the enemy. Private Woody ol Company F—Sergt M M Johnson, wounded in hip and arm slightly; Privates C Makine, J Casorid and C D Kilter, killed. Company D—Privates A H Gray, wounded in the arin. Company G—Andrew Read and John Hamil ton wounded. Col. Johnson was aUo wounded, but not seri ously. This is not more than half the number of killed and wounded in our brigade, but is .all I can obtain this morning. In the battle that the 40th and 52d were en gaged in the enemy is supposed to have lost about 400 in killed and wounded. The 31st Louisiana, who were with us in the fight, lost great many, and I must Bay, that braver men never fought. Company if, who were in our pits, lost four killed and the Major of the regiment seriously wounded. The num bers lost on our right, commanded by Gen. Lee, I could not ascertain. This morning before day we evacuated our pits, and have taken a position half mile in the rear ou the hill, in rifle pitB, in order to draw the enemy out from their gunboats, and give them a complete reception. Defend the city at all hazards, stems to be the motto of our authorities here, and we have ev ery reason to believe that, let the enemy come in what shape or by what route he may, we will, aided by the Providence of an all wise God, who has sltap’ed our course, and sustained our stan dard thus far, be able to render the piesent siege of Vicksburg as fruitless as that of June and July last.

Jordan oi Co.’ (J,’and’ Corporal Cammel, should ever be remembered for their bravery and continuous firing in this fight. The men would load their guns id the works below them and they stand upon them to fire upon the enemy. These are tome that I noticed particularly, others deserve equally as much praise. The enemy finding he could not effect his de- mgn, ordered a retreat at dark, and the firing ceased. In this fight one oi Co. I, of our Regi ment, was shot through the head and killed.— Hi* name was Hicks. . At night we could hear the groan3 of the dy ing, and could hear their comrades carrying them from the field. No firing Monday night, and a very cold rain fell, filling our entrench ments with water, and wetting our ammunition so that our guns would not tire well. We lay in water all night, our sufferings being too great to be expressed by language. At daylight Tuesday morning we opened fire again which was answered, and kept up till in the afternoon, when the enemy came in with a flag 01 truce to carry oft the dead, which were close to cur piis. Permission was granted them We looked over the em bankment and saw them lying uead in every position, and the knapsacks, canteens, guc3, cartiidge boxes, cap boxes, haversacks, spade* and shovels oovertd the ground. On yesterday no firing was heard from the enemy; and we were notified at 1 o’clock, that there would be no firing for five hours.
