    THE BOMBARDMENT OF CALLAO.
11111eial Report of Commodore Rodgers
The following despatch from Cqmmodore
Rodgenkwas to-day received at the Navy
Department: -.- _ _
U. S. STEAMER VANDERBILT, at Sea, May
10, 1866.—51 R :—I have the honor to report
that on the 27th of April, the Spanish Ad
miral, Mendez Nunez addressed a letter to
the Diplomatio Corps in LithEt, declaring
that the'port of Callao was blockaded from
that date; also another, justifying the course
of Spain, and announcing that he should
give neutral, inhabitants four days to re
move their loersons and property, previous
to the bombardment of ,the city.
On the 30th April Admiral Pearson an
choied our men-of-war out of gun-shot of
the, fortification of Callao. Merchant •ves
sels had some days before taken up posi
tions out Of the way of hostile operations.
It was thought that the attack would com
mence on the Ist of May, when the time ex
pired given to neutrals for removal;, but on
the 2d of May, about ten o'clock, A. M., the
Spanish fleet got under way. Some
lines, time,
was spent in dressing their nes, and about
eleven o'clock the squadron moved in two
divisions to attack the defences of Callao.
The, first division, under Admiral Nunez,
consisting of the iron--clad-Numancia, of
seven - thousand tone burden, with , the
frigates Blanca and Resolucion, moved
.alongithe low Ca7-"ZO 'lsland to attack the
batteries off . the south side of Callao, while
the frigates Villa de Madrid, Berengaele.
and, ALmanza, passing in front of the
National and merchant vessels anc‘iored in
the bay, steamed at first towards the Peru
vian batteries on the north side of the - city.
As these vessels approached they accelerated
their speed and ran swiftly into position.
At fifteen • minutes after twelve the first
gun was fired; ;I thought, from the Nu
mancia, quickly followed by two from a
battery on the south side. The Spanish
fleet carried about two hundred and forty
guns, mostly 32-pounders. The ,Nuraancia
was armed with 68-pounders, as was also
the three-gun corvette Vincedora, which
was held in reserve, to tow, if necessary,
and also, I presume, to cover the transports.
The Peruvian batteries numbered in the
aggregate forty-five guns, five of them 450-
pounders, Blakeleys, and four Armstrong
guns, 200-pounders mounted on top of iron
turrets; the rest were 32-pounders.
Sand bags were extensively used in
making the batteries, to which were added
brick masonry and some of adobe. The
firing soon became warm. About ten
o'clock the Villa de Madrid set her jib and
trysails and ran out of the fight. She made
signals, and was taken in tow by the,Via-,
cedora, with steam escaping abundantly
from below. She was soon followed by the
Berenguela, listed over to one side and with
smoke pouring from her ports. Just before
she retired a puff of black dust had shot out
at her water line on the side away from the
batteries. A ball had gone through the coal
bunkers, I thought, and through both sides.
We saw men over the side attempting to
patch with canvas the ragged hole, which
seemed some two feet square.
The Almanza moved to join the first
division, engaged with the Southern batte 4
ries. The Resolucion and Blanca, about
2.30, steamed away from the Southern divi
sion, leaving the Almanza and the Numan
cia still engaged. These vessels drew off at
fifteen minutes before five o'clock; the Peru
vians firing after them as long as their guns
could reach. The actions fought under way
by the SPaniards, was urged on both sides
with courage and persistency. The Peru
vians' guns, which were all on barbette,
never ' ceased firing, and the Spaniards, I
believe, only left off when their ammunition
was exhausted.
The killed and wounded in the batteries
were said to number eighty. In one of the
iron-clad batteriee a shell exploded, igniting
other powder and disabling the guns. By
this explosion Senor Galvez, the Peruvian
Minister of War and Marine, was blown to
atoms. Next to the Dictator in power, of
liberal views and marked ability, his loss
will prove a serious one to the country.
His Excellency, the Dictator, is said to
have been everywhere in the thickest of the
fight, animating, encouraging and directing
the Peruvian batteries. Ido not know the
damage to the Spanish fleet, but the loss
was no doubt heavy. It was obvious that
several of the vessels had been badly pun
ished. The Spaniards, we thought, did not
go very near the batteries, many of their
shot falling into the water. Tne presence of
torpedoes may have inspired caution.
In coming away from a farewell visit to
Admiral Pearson, I picked up one floating
adrift near our vessels. It was a red keg,
containing about fifty pounds of wet prow
der, with some yards of insulated wire at
tached, , and inside the arrangement for ex
plosion by a galvanic battery. The senior
surgeon, Dr. Peck, was sent to the Villa de
Madrid and Berenguela as soon as they an
chored, with offers of assistance. His - ser
vices were accepted by the surgeon of the
Villa de Madrid, but on board the Beren
guela the officers gathered around him at
the gangway, and said they were deeply
grateful, but needed no help.
When the Numancia anchored, Dr. John
son was sent on board, while Dr. Peck, who
had returned to the Vanderbilt, went on
shore to tender his services to the Peru
vians. I was sorry to learn, through Dr.
Johnson, that Admiral Nunez had been
badly wounded by splinters, no fewer than
eight injuries havir g been received in the
head, arms, legs and side. The Doctor was
not permitted to see the Admiral, asd I
apprehend he has been seriously hurt. The
Peruvian batteries were but little injured.
The authorities on shore were confident that
on the morning following the bombardment
they would be better prepared than at the
-first to resist an attack.
There were two iron-clad vessels on the
side of the Peruvians, one a monitor,
the Loa, with a single gun (sixty-eight
pounder) in a turret, and one the Vittoria,
built in the shape of the Confederate iron-
Clads, covered with railroad - iron, and hav
ing a sixty-eight pounder at each end. The
monitor was struck ten times but received
no damage. Ido not know how the other
fared. There were several small men-of
war, but their artillery was too light to be
used, and they were secured inside the mole.

I have the honor to be
Your obedient servant,
JOHN 'ROGERS, Commander.

Navy.

From ISIL Louis.
ST. Loins, May 22.—1 n the Old School
Assembly to-day, the action of the Assem-,
bly in regard to the exclusion of the Louis.:
Tide committee was ordered to be recorded,'
and 'a committee, with Dr. West as chair
man, was appointed to answer it. The re
port of the Committee on Foreign Missions
shows that the Board has forty-six inissions
in different countries. The receipts for the
,year were $207,000, and the expenditures
1210,000. Nearly half the churches Of the
denomination -failed to contribute to the
support of the Board. Both money and
men are needed. -
The_Hon. Sand. Galloway, of Ohio, con-'
immed most , of to-day in replying to Dr.
13oardman's speech of yesterday, taking
strong grounds against the conduct of the
Louisville Presbytery,- and dealing tren
chant - blows against ' disloyalty in and out
of the church.
Nothing of special importance occurred,
in the New School Assembly.
