y The o»ras ticlory, bore, will be fcoown ee
Ibt victor/ of Hilion Head. The eootb itlacd,
OQ which the main fighting took placet ia called
Hilton Hoad; the northern ialand it known in
Bay Point.
* Tpe regular garrison at Hilton. Head con
•itted of 800 men, troin Bsstb Carolina, but
wae rainfrrcfd *;oce Monday by 1 4 000 men,
from Georgia. The troops were all raw, and
- were made op of hasty levies of Home Gaarda.
The knapsacks of the Colombia Rifles, e?i*
denlly a crack-home company, were new end
their rifles plso. We know that, because the;
left them all behind.
The fortification at HUton Head ta an old
one—that it* it wee constructed at least aix
months ago. It wii aeieniifically conatructed,
being a regular fert, of earth work, moontiog
twenty gone, and wta a aery strong position.
Four of the guns were rifled and were made
at Richmond. The others were 32« pounders,
stolen at Norfolk, excepting one English gnn
captured by us* in the last war with Great
Britain, and honied at Not folk.
The fire from the Wabash on Thursday mum
log dismantled fire of the gana, shattering the
carriages to splinters. Two were spiked, and
the rest'were leaded and left, their frlgbt giving
them no time to shoot them eJT
The gnoi were served by a German Artillery
Company, from Augosta, Georgia. Oae of them
lies dead In the field behind the fort, and wm a
sturdy, flne-lookiag fallow. A piece of sbetl
passed dear through bis heart
The Georgians ran first They loft at 12
o*doek, making a dun track for the ferry at
• the farther end of the island. They were fol
. . lowed shortly after by the cavalry, then by the
South Carolina troops. T&ey started with all
__ their equipments, bat the paaio tnorcared as
they ran, and than they dropped everything.
The road from hero to the ferry is strewn with
gnns, blaoketi, kaepieeki and accoutrements.
It wak at-bed a panto as that at 801 l Run,
theroad being covered with every thing porta*
ble and eatable. The Artillerists ran last The
•fleers left everything in their quarters—s words,
trunks', clothes, letters, money end liqnors.
i The fort appears to beve been commanded by
- OoL He Siuisure, of fioatb Caroline.
Thej sent their wjaaded back two miles
from the beacb, and carried all but two off dur
ing Thursday nigbtr Bow many, cannot be
ascertained, but probably not over fitly, at the
infantry do not appear to have been io the
trenches. They left without firjog.a ehot.
| The msgsiines were full of ammuoition, and
_ ; si large quantity o! musket cartridges wae found
back in the fislds, where the infantry had pro
bably bivouacked. They were io new, prime
boxes, and along with' them large numbers of
percussion caps were found, of Eaghsh make,
and it is probable the cartridges came from
JEsglaed as wall at tbe caps. About one kin
dred boxes were found. The balls for the ions
were from the foundry at Richmond.
Every white person on the lilsod left with
the army, taking ell the negroes they epold
wKh them. Many of the negroes, howevsr,
have ilnoe found their way baok. They rep re*
•ant that the whites along tbe coast have fled
back to tbe highlands;, that tbe negro mth re
ivied to work as toon at Otey ktard the gunt;
that the planters then sent tbe women to work
- and tried to carry the children off, expecting
Hie women to follow; end that tbe women, in
most cates, have remained where they were loft.
There were twoTorta on Bay Polct, mounting j
15 guns, and manned'h/1500 aeo. 1 Several of
the gum were diiotnUtd, end the rebels appear
to have taken a greater sears lb ere than kero.
Tfarj left OTtrj thing— gone in boxes never
opened, ammunition, beat leads of stores, floor,

Tba action commenced at prec:t*lv 10 j. m ,
the first ahot bciug fired from the Hiiion Head
fortification at tbo Big.ib'pi and three gone
w*.re fired before we replied. Tbe tboti then
elicited d reply, Cota. Dapont being too paoo
ulicme a gentlemen to permit to marked a
.compliment to be long unrecognized and un
answered. Tbo two eotire broadsides of tbe
Wab&ah, compcaed of :wo batteriee 0f25 gone
eacb, and the pivot gun, cl once poured in
their fearful itorta o( shell* upon the batteriee
on both tides of tho river at once. The man,
who bad stripped to their work, instantly re
loaded tbo gone, and ae the frigate moved with
joet sufficient epecd to give her eteeragowar,
and keep her uoder control, the bad tbe bat
tery m range lot treaty minutes, for all ol
which time tbe men were loading and firing at
tbe rate of onee a minute for eacb gun—thus
giving the immebse nambsr of 440 ebellc that
were rammed in upon that devoted garrison
by the Wabash alone every time she passed;
for after the first fire she used only tbe star
board guns. Let it be noted, too, that the ships
were within point-blank tango of the shore,
some of tbem approaching within less than
200 yards of tbe battery; tfar Bienville, which
ran closer in than any otoer ship, was so close
as plainly to duuogpisb tbe color of the shirts
ol tbe men.who worked tbe guns, and to hear
thei* cries of encouragemeut to oach other.
When it is remembered that tbe gnns need are
large enough to carry with effective precision
two miles and a half, a slight idea ol their
tremendous effect at sneb short range can be
formed.
Though the rebel guns jo this work were
Columbiads of the largest eixe/ao'd carrying s
180-pound projealilc, and the guns ero so
heavy as to require twelve men to work each
one, and nrive jt effectively on its carriage,
each wa* the irresistible force of our shot that
in 20 minute# three of tneso imatenae Coium
biadf were dismcuuted—knocked ftom their
carriages, aod rendered completely ageless.
Of course the shipa were not obliged to wait
until they got -abreast of the w oia to com
mence firing, but the make or the nver per
-Qitted them to brgm to throw angunr raking
•bote at a dlstanco of tbrse quitters yf a mile,
firing down the river, keeping it up as they
slowly drifted past, and finally finishing the
round by pitehmg some parting soots up the
river at a with the one# first fired.
This plan permitted enven or eijht of «.ur ves
sels to piay no the fortification* at the same
time.
The peculiar make of the river ia such that
not cure tbao eight of our ships could bring
their guns to bear on the shore batteries at the
same time ; but even then the sight was one
of the most magnificent conceivable. Eight
vessels would deliver a broadside of not loss
than 60goes at a siogie fire, l*d by tao battery
of tki Wabsib, of 27 guns, and is each gun
could be loadctj and (‘iscliarged once m a
minute at the vary lowest tsumalo,it.wili be
seen that more than 60 combs and other tern*
bly destructive proj-cuies were raioed mio the
Hilton Head fortification every minute that tb’
fleet was within range.
Eieh ship ws* in rfficiive range cf the for*,
foj about 20 minutes, every time the iioe came
round ; they moved like a terrible procession
r.t destroying angels, and atresch ol tneir vis
its, which indeod were lew; bat not fxr be
tween, the combined force'- hailed upon the
doomed shore a fiery storm of more than 400
fiery shells.
The spoclaci* was one of thevnost impress,
tie mat ecu!d be presented to the eye ot mm.
_ The air was filled with Worsting bombs—each
deadly projectile, as it boomed through the
air, first rose beavonward ia a-grtcefal carve,
ana then sw«opod down to earth to fulfill tts
fatal errand, leaving through the air a min
waveriog lino of smoke that was fl«t aaory

c.ear Ooathoro aky. Bsau::/«; as was the airy

was marked by a crlmron atream of fliwing
blood, by the sickening craab of sbatteriog
bones, and by wreck, ram and dte.ructioa ot
whatever thing it toothed. Nothing could
stand before this fiery storm— goes were buried
from thair carriages; booses were knockec into
beeps of brick ana mortar, anil beco* and
boards; the formidable fort»walia of the sol»~
ideal masonry were is places true and splint
ered, and the toogb trees of the pitch-pine
woods ware shivered, twisted, wrenched and
cat off like slender reeds; and the men were
beaten into quivering masses of bruised, gory
flesh, or were torn iolo mutilated, ghastly,
sickening objects,

Bui tbe enemy waa by oo means inactive
He offered a stubborn—so berate resistance.
Look.ng through a powerful telescope, belong
ing to the engineer officer* of the expedition,
l saw when the ships were approaching tbn
battery the second time, two men wearing red
shirts. They bad been particularly active,
and now tat at tbe musxfe of a gun, apparent’y
exbaaated, and waiting for more ammunition.
This terrible fire from tbe fleet was falling ail
aroccd them, but they moved-not, and I doubt
ed if they were alive, Ftoally they spring up
and loaded tbeir piece—a shell at that instant
burst near them, and they disappeared, doub -
lers blues into atoms I heard frequently,
during tbs hottest of the fight, most unquali
fied expressions of approval for tbe manner to
which tbe rebels served tbeir guos. That
their marksmanship was gooj, the torn buns
and cut nggiug oi our vessels, rather than toe
number ol killed on board, furnish full evi
dence.
By this time a new element begin to mingle
with the feelings of, the rebel garrison. Wun
astonishment end wonder—that they bad not
yet sunk anyofibe opposing vessels, begin lo
mingle n large, a very large prspott’on - I
doubt whether they could do it.
Wnuoui paying more attention to the bark
ing of the!battery at Futt-Beaarrgard, on Bay
Point, than to pitch them an occasional shot
merely to let tneta know they were Dot lor
gotteo, fop the third time the fleet rounded
their circular track, and came slowly down m
pay their > respects again. Again was tbo
whole of Hbe fire of tbe fort concentrated on
tbe Wabash, and afterward in turn on eacn
ol the ships, a* they passed in a fiery preces
before tbe lori, delivering with tbe utmost co<>].
ness and tbe moat exact precision their mur
derous fire, runoiog 'even nearer than before,
firing more effectually than ever, and agslu
■teaming away unharmed, ind turoiog tbe point
fur still another ioatd.
Tbe utmdtt coofternetion now took (nil
possession of tbe rebels, and in an uncontrol
lable pimc they fled with tbe utmost ptecipi
tatiou. The paoic at Bj!1 Ran was out more
complete; indeed, not bait so much ao, for
the rebels to their mortal terror ran lor the
woods without stopping for anything whatever.
Tbeyrieft in tbeir tenia hundreds of dollars of
monev, gold watches, costly swords, and other
valuables, showing that tbeir fear was uncon
trollable and complete.
The fl.ght was observed first from the little
gun-boat Mercury, was communicated lo the
flig-shlp, and was immediately telegraphed
to all tbe fleet,
Capt. John Rodgers, now tbe commander of
tbe aloop-of-war Flag, who bad been on board
the Wabash, acting as aid to Flag Officer Du
pont during the fight, was at once sent uc
•bore in a boat with a flig of truce to ascer
tain K the flight waa real or a feint. He found
tbe tort entirely deserted, and immediately
with bia own band tan up tbe Ftara and Stripes
on the ramparts- ‘
At precisely 3 o’clock p. m. of Thorsday,
Nov. 7, 1851, tbe Auxericao flag was planted
in South Carolina, on a South Carolina fort,
lor the first time aince it was hauled down at
tbe disgraceful capture of Fort Satnler.
Tbe vboutsads ot men on tbe transports
witnessed the event with frantic delight, and
bailed the cheers that see i.ed to
have no limit, either in number or in onthu
oiaara, and in leas than five minutes half a
diten brass band* on tbe various decks were
fi'hog tbe rebel air with tbe juyoua, trium
phant, and uuaocQatomed strains of “The Star
Spangled B*naer , *Vnd “Yankee Doodle.’*
Tbe action lasted exactly fire hours, from
tbe miDuie of firing tbe first'Shot to the inataot
of ruoning up tbe flag.
Preparations were now instantly made to
<aoa our troops, that. £bo place might be im.
mediately and tfficie'ftTfy garrisoned, and se
cured against a recapture. Tbe 7th Connec
ticut Regiment were embarked in 27 large
b?*ts, which little fleet waa towed aa near tbe
I shore as practicable by tbe steamer Wiufield
! Scott, when they were pulled near to tbe beach
1 by the oarsmen, and the men, numbering
1,046, sprang into tbe water, op to tbeir hips,
and with loud cheers waded ashore and took
possession of the plaoe. They were loilowed
by tbs rest of the First Brigade, under the
command of Gen. Wright. Pickets were
thrown out that same night lor miles in every
feasible direction, double guards were set, ana
every precaution taaen against a surprise.
Tnere wss but little need, however, of so
much caution, for the enemy bad deserted in
such a panic that tbe idea of return could
never have occurred lo them. Toeir tents
were left standing and ihey bad left in their
hurried departure everything ootactna : iy upoo
tbeir persons. Tbe tents were filled with cloth
mg, arms, lood, bidding, ana everything usual
ly pertaining to a camp, la tome of tae tools
were tables with everytbiogxlaid for dinner,
and covered with a bountilui\auppiy of cold
meats, bread, biscuit, etc., add in sundry hot- :
tics slid dem'jobns were certain liquid com
forts that caused epecixl rejoicings to tbe
heart! of tbo captors.
Ooe of onr anldiars discovered $lOOO to gold
and silver; and others were ao lucky or on
lucky, u is not decided wbieb, a> lo discover
considerable sum#' of South Carolina paper
mooey *
The search for trophies was universal, and
there w*re few who visited the shore on that
memorable day of lbs bailie, who have not
secared momentoes of the action, more or less
.•iioaoie. »
The road tbe rebels took was strewn' for
mites with muakets, kuapsseks, blankets, car'
tridge boxes, and other valuables that they bad
throws away in their flight. They bad re
treated acrois the island to Seabrook, a dis
tauue ol hpil a dciso miles, where they took
ooat for Savaunab. Even tha wharf at 6©a.
brook was strewn with valuables, carried even
so far and abandoned at tha last moment. Tbe
troops who were in charge of ibis fort, and wbo
certainly fought most gallantly, wero tbe 12;h
K+giraeot of booth Carolina Voluoteers, uocer
Col: Jones, and tbe 9:b Booth Carolina Volun
teers, commanded by Col. Haywood, and a
battalion of .German Artillery, aoder Colonel
Wegener. They bad iq the lort about 1,500
men in all—enough to serve all tbe guns to
the most efficient manner. They bad alio •
field battery with 600 troops stationed at a
point e short distance above Hiltoo Bead,whet e
they anticipated our transports would under*
take to send troop* to attempt a fliok move
ment lor tbe assistance of the navy. On the
opposite tide ol tho river they bad 400 men.
Jt cannot be denied tbat tho resistance was as
gallant at the final panic was complete; but
tbe hardest fighting on tba.rebel side was all
dose by tbe German Artillery, they being
the Us to leave the lort, which they did not do
until long after tbo greater part of the valiant
Palmetto “Chivalry” bad taken to the woods to
save their precious neekv.
They had spiked bat one guu,* most valuable
rifled esuoon, which they temporarily d:sabled
with a steel spike, which can with difficulty
be extracted. The other'guns were, most ol
them, colorobiad* of the very large*! sue,
130-pounders, and of theiflost admirable fin
ish, being tbe finest and latest productions of
tbe Tredegar Works, Richmond, and fully
equal to any gaos owned by tbe Norm. There
were 23 of these gun* in the lort.
Tbo fortification is of tbe most admirable
construction, evidently planned and built un
der.tbe superintendence of a thoroughly able
eogineer, aod is one ol tbfttrongesi works ol
the kind in the whole country. Uoder tbe
efficient eommaod ol Gen. Sherman, tbe lorce
here ts ample for present emergencies.
Tbe wbola of the military force was put
ashore si rapidly as possible, aod met with oo
btodrance whatever.

THE OrrTBASA'D ELEMENT.
As soon st Uic negro tijrea observed u»
coming no shore they flecked aioig tne bank*
in great nombe's. tome bearing parcels and
butd’et :b il expecting us u> take thrm nt
once to a liras of freedom. Ercry variety of
negro and •lave was represented. 1 say no
gru and slave, for it it a mesancnnly fact tsnt

Jubilant, Jakfe# middie**ged, sno eager, ard
gray.haired, solemn-looking fellow*. Some
appeared mtitified, and totnetnteliigent. Tho
quadroon and tho octoroon, possessing an in
di*tingm#bsble unto! negro blood mingled, one
drop with seven oi Southern nativity and *t,.
ctent family, formed, to speak ratdiy, an intc
esttng aceoe.
Aa fut aa the contraband article oame within
rc&sb, it was plaoed in the guard house, an old
frame building behind Fort Walker. Hero
qoitfl a collection was made. They wore hod
-4 ling together half in fear and half in hope,
when a naval offioer of tho Bienville looked !□
opon them, nakiug t “Well, well, what are von
all about r *
“Dat’e Jsat what we'd like to find cut, maa'r,"
was the response.
The officer assured them that they would be
kindly takoo earoof.'aud perhaps, foacd some,
thing to do, and need not b*' aiaroiod.
“Tank God for dot, mat'r." w&b the reply.
On drawing them into conra.-sa ioo, they said
toat they caught a great deal »f fish in Pert
Hojal hatbot, fishing at night, after the plan*
Ution work was over. Two daves were found
reooanoiteriog about on their owu account, and
on bolois brought* into camp, rxplalned that
thay belonged to Mra. Pinoknt-y, ui Charleston,
and came dewn to "tee wba*. de white peoplo

Slaves repurled that "wheo do whi e folks see
4e little boats cornin' up, dey laffed at dem,but
when d-y eee do big cnecker tided vessels corn
in', dey laffed on ue odcr side der tnouf# "
The number of slaves will probably increase
each dsy, aod the importance of their aid must
be gro&t.
kEAUTOBT.
The town oi Beaufort, I am told, is a pri
vate watfrtng place. That is,the wealthy plan
ters, tor miles around, hive erected commo
dious summer residences th:rc, at.d in the
beigbth ot the season the town sccotamod&les
from three thousand to tour tbtyo..r.d inhabi
tants. The remainder of the year ,bc white
and colored pjpalatiun together doe# not ex
ceed five hundred. When the recoanoitertog
party landed they fouod that extreme terror
<’t an attack, consequent upon the defeat of
tbetr counlrymen at the mouth of the bay, had
prompted a stampede of all the white people,
with one solitary exception, the day before.
The exception was a man who doubtless
woald have gooe also, but he wis too drunk
to move. He was taken <m board the Pembma
and questioned, but ho was too stupid to give
a coherent story. The negroes were then
fbeking in from the plantations and pillaging
the bouses. They tend dreadful stories ofbow
their owners bad ailempcd to deter them from
coming in by shooting a few downy but they
bad heard that the “Yankees*’ would give
them liberty, and for such a boon they took
the nek of a bullet.
