A-RROONNOBSRANCE, _ General Schimotfenig, with a derachment of his forces, crossed from Folly iskand to K)swah on Friday last, and on Sunday advanced upon Seabrook Island, as far as Haal- over eut. Here tho enemy was found in considerable strength, and their ficid batteries opened upon us with some vigor. Schimelfenig’s orders were not to bring on an engacement, and after ascertaining the pumber and position of the enemy he retired, bringing of his men without damage. THR §IBGR OP CHARLESTON. ‘The fire of our battories on Morris Island last week was rather languid, though the garrison of Fort Sumter waa continually harrased by the dropping of our sbells amogg them. The rebel fire bid become quite mode rave alfo, until about ten o'clock on Sunday night, tho 16th, when suddenly their Suilivan’s Island batteries opened a terrific cannonade upon Fort Putnam, ot Cum mings’ Point. Fortwo hours the rebel bombardment was maintained with great fury. So sevore was the fire that the long roll was beaten and ali the troops on Morris Island oalled to arms, After expending their ammuni tion at an unprecedented rate, the evercios of the enemy evidently became exhausted at midnight, when their batteries became quiet. THR LENKA AGROUND, Doring Sunday wight the Monitor Lehigh, while on Picket duty near Fori Sumter, got aground. Daylight dis covered her porition to theenemy, who atonce began a furious fire upon her both from James and Sullivan's Islands. To her assistynce three other Mon/tors—tho Mantauk, Passaic and Nubant—i:moved up, and in the face of the fierce cannonade @ hawser was attached to the grounded jron-civd. At high tide -ehd was hauled off, having surtaino! no damage of a Feri ue nature. TUR NEW IRONSINES, E Yor the first time to several wecka the frigate Now Trensides was ye:terday unier way, tbe critical condi tion of the Lehigh seemed to demand sea stance, but the latter got afloat aud out of danger before the troueides could bring her guns to bear. SHELLING THE CITY. Doudtlees you will havo learned sooner than this reaches you of the bombardment of Charleston, which commenced today, At nine o’clovk this = morning our = hewy = =riflod = gunmat the upper end of Morris Island wero turned upon the city, During the day nineteen shells were lodged within the town—four more than the number which excited the in- dignation of Beauregard and drew from the foreign con- sule @ formal protest in August last. What effect our Projectiles have to-day produced remainn to be learned. ‘The bursting of the shells within the town was easily seen and their reporta plasty heard, I understand that (bis bombardment of the city in tobe majotained for reveral General Gilmore certainly has the town at bie ‘and cap destroy it if the in- habitante prefer sueb an event rather than its surrender. PUR REBELS CETTING THR RANGH OY THR CHANNRZ. ‘Verterday and to-day the enemy bas been firing from Moultrie and Jonnson towards Sumter. At first it was thought that they had evacnated that work and wore shelling $t, under the supposition that it had been occupied By our forces; but, as none of their min. siles struck the fort, it is probable that the enemy has deen endeavoring to get the range of the channel, in order to make his batteries more effective against tho iron-clads, which he evidently expects along that way at no distant day NO CASOALTINR, It is remarkable tiat im the throe weeks which have ela @yt wince the present bombardment began not a singte casualty bas been inflicted upon our men by the evemy’s guns.

Tie batteries bear upon only two faces of the work, The rebel guns enflade our face, and can bring oot fire to bear upon all the others, If we with our guns can compel the rebels to evacuate, they with their batteries could easily make it too hot to bold na.

When the Nahant came $a hailing distance of the Le- bigh, Commander Bryson informed the Admirai of his precise position, and asked for a line wo tow him off.

The en tire crew jumpod forward and offered themselves, and not one officer beid back, The surgeon of the ship, whose namo, I regret to say, Nas escaped ime, and two men were accepted, and immediately sprang into the small boat alongside, aud taking a line, pulled to the Lehigh, under a storm of missiles, The ling2was attached, and the Nahant essayed to pull her off pdid. not budge an jneb, and finally the line parted, Aga!n the rurgeon and the two men carried @ live to the Lehigh, and again did the cable part,or was shot away, and finally, a third time was a line carried to ber, and at a Hitle after (be turn of the tide she was téwed off by the Nahant, For their coolness and bravery Admiral Dahlgren pro- moted the seamen ov tho rpot to the grade of petty officers The gallant rurgeon will be properly noticed in official reports.
