Letter from the Fire Zouaves,
[Corrwpondmce of The Press.]
Camp Advance, near Chain Bridge, Va., >
September 26,1861. $
I smelt powder and, saw blood shed for the
first time, yesterday. I had the honor to
command a detachment of ten men from our
company, who, in conjunction with ten men
from each company of our regiment, formed
the Advance Skirmishers for the army yester
day, (IVednesdav, 25tli). Think oi' that!
placing us ahead of men who liavo been here
for months; who fought at Big Bethel, Bull
Bun, and in all the fights. IVc made an ad
vanee yesterday with 15,000 men, for what
obieet Ido not know. Wc were thrown out,
and with the Seventy-ninth Highlanders and
Berdan's Sharpshooters, who took the loft,
(we took the right), we advanced about eight
miles, driving in their pickets as we went.
We finally came in sight of one of their bat
teries without being discovered. Wo fell back
to the brow of a hill and waited until Gene
rals Smith and Baker came up j they then sig
nalled our battery, who came up double quick
and took a very good position, under the com
mand of Captain Mott. We were then sent
out again, in order to draw them out, and in
scouting through the woods, we came upon a
number of their pickets, but having orders not
to fire on them, we contented ourselves by
taking tbeir captain prisoner, who, by the
way, was an aid-de-camp to General Stewart,
of the rebel anmy. He would not tell any
thing, so we sent him in the lines j the rest of
them made their escape.
Their battery soon commenced shelling the
woods, but the most of our men were to the
light, behind the hill. There were four men
wounded by them, when our guns opened on
them, and completely annihilated their bat
tery. They had got our range pTetty accu
rately, and their halls were coming uncom
fortably near when Mott got his eye on them.
When lie fired he knocked their gun all to
pieces, killing some men, but of course we
do not know how many. We could sec their
gun turning a complete somersault, when
Baker, who was laughing all the time, says:
“Now, you devils, give three cheers,” which
was done emphatically, I can tell you. Some
of tlieir balls must have come within two feet
©f his head, but he never flinched; never re
tired ; stood on top of the hill, in full view,
telling us every shot that told. I tell you
what, when they burst over your head, within
four or five feet of you, it makes you feel
queer! And then Colonel Baker would sing
out, “ Down, you devils! don't you see that
fellow coming ?” And, I tell you, he would
be quickly obeyed. We had nobody killed.
Yours, O. B. S.
