West Por, Va., Mav 8, 1862, Thave gathered the following details of a most deape- rate engageipent at this point yesierday:— After the landing of General Franklin's division, which camped tn a large field, surrounded on the south, west and north by a dense wood, and on the east by the York river, the Thirty-second New York, Colonel Matteson, of Newton’s brigade, was ordered to clear the wood of rebels, who had mado their, presence known to our pickets. The Sixteenth New York were ordered to the same work in other portions of the wood. The Thirty. second proceeded to execute their orders. Entering the wood they came upon a raving, at the bottom of which they wore fired upon by the rebel skirmishers. Up they charged, delivering a galling fire upon the eoemy’s position. The enemy retired, our troops following until a second ravine appeared in view. In atiempting to criss this the rebels from the otlar side again poured a volley invo them with considerable effect, which had not, how- ever, the power to drive our men back, who gallantly pur- sued the rebels, delivering their tire upou them, or rotuer ‘upon their position, for they kept themselves concealed by the woods, Ata third and last ravine, the rebels had erected @ breastwork on the opposite side, from which they opened on our men with small arms and grape and canister from mountain howitzers. ‘The Thirty-second charged gallantly up to within afew feet of the work, but were forced to retire on accou tof the superior foroe of the enemy. They retired in admi- rable order. There were only seven compun'es of the ‘Thirty cecond regiment engaged against Alabama, Texas, South Carolina and Tenuessce @oops. The celebrated Hampton Levion formed a portion of the rebel force. At two o’clock P.M. our gunboats, three in number, opened fire upon the evemy from their / larger guns, the shells taking, to all appearances, effect in the right quarter, for the enemy soon after wa! retired, their battery being silenced on the first shot fyom the boats. We could trace the enemy’s retreat by the line of smoke in their rear, They were seemingly destroying everjthing as they retreated. ‘The Sixteenth and Thirty first regiments New York Vol- unteers were also engagod in skirmishing with theenemy in the woods. The detai's of the part these regiments played in the ekirmish bas notreached me. I Jearn tha, the Thirty-second rogiment New York Volunteer’s loss wili be nearly 100 in killed and wounded. Three ufficors,— Gaptain Young, of Company D; Captain Brown, of Com- pany C:and Lieutenant Wallce, of Comnany G—wore killed, and Lientenant Stone, of Company B, and Lieuten- ant Twaddle, of Company F, wounded severely.

Captain Montgomery, of General Newton’s staff, and Captain Baker, United States dragoons, Franklin's sta(f, made a most miraculous escape from the Hampton Legion, into whose picket lines they became entrapped. Captain Montgomery coolly ingtfred the name of tho regiment. Receiving the answer, The Hampton Legion,” he inquired for General Hampton, and was told that he was @ehort distames off. He and Captain Raker immediately put spurs t@ their horses. The rebel pickets fired a volley after them, seven balls entering the body of Captain M.’s Rorse, killing him instantiy.
