O., May 5.—Knowing that an expedition which left this place last Tues- day will have been successful, or not so, before this letter will have reached you, I brieily state its purpose. Since the attack on Charieston, the extra rebel force which was assembled for the detense of that city and it8 surrouuaings, seem to have been again distributed, both in force and detachmenis, all around us. They occupy, with guerilla bands, openly and stealthfully, the islands adjacent to us which we do not hol@ by @ military force.

I have since learned trom officers from Pulaski, that the firiug was from one of the rebel forts up the Sayannah river. itis thought that some rebels were trying to desert from the garrison in smal! boats, ‘as they have done before, and that their remaining comrades sent some unfriendly shelis and solid shot afier their frail barks. ‘Lhe Rebels haye a large battery at Legreo. ville, just the other side ot Cole’s Island, which adjoins Folly Island. This battery can just command the lower extremity of Folly island. ‘The other day the rebels opened with this batiery vpon what they supposed to be Gen. Vodges’ head-quarters. Their shots fell short, although within range; and the Pawnee replied vigorously to the hostile fire.

This order was strictly obeyed. When a Zouaye enters a street, he generally manages to escape the fire of Ortega’s soldiers, ; either by aleap or by throwing himself flat on } the grouné. Then he gets up, rushes at all spetd to the house or battlement he wishes to take, breaks open the door and pursues his foe, j who never waits for the point of his bayon-t. it ts in this way that two-thirds of the city of Pucbin has been taken. One of the objects of General Forey in getting hold of the cathedral now in his power, was to have ground high enongh to direct a plunging fire upen Juarez’s forces, doubled up on the j hiuis of Guadalupe and Loretto. [t was exe pecied, however, that these two forts would rrender in consequence of the suppression the French of the two streams which were supplying the army of Juarez with water, Jt is calcuiated that since the beginning of the siege of Puebla, the Mexicans have fired 15,0.) cannon. and 1,000,000 rifle shots, killing 41 French soldiers ohiy, and wounding 161. The policy bitherte pursued by Gen. Forey, im his operations, is not to make a glorious campaign, bul a nsefal one, d to carry his army intact te the city of Mexice. “The teking of Mexico,” he says, “is not a question of blood, but a question of tims. I do not come here to gather laurels, but to obtain serious ad- vantages, as profitable to the Mexicans as to France,’ The soldiers «*e convinced that the policy of their general must finally bring good results, and manifest no impatieace at the slowness of his movements, They evea do not grumble at the system adopted for th- siege of Puebla, which, they say, they might have taken in three days by assaulting it, and wait patiently for the surrendering of the place.
