In the march up the Cosahatchie Foad there was sowe skirmishing with the pickets along pearly the whole route; but in the otber direction our column was only fired on ouce.

Seon alter they of twetve-pouuders,. placed ta thoeord, upou our ors, consisting of the Oue Hundred and Twebty sev New York, under Colonel Gurr Several regiments and: some artillory-were at ones pushed on uy) the road, nerais Hatch and Potter both proceeding wish the advance. OTR TROOTS NOR. On the left of the road, for a quarter of a milo or so, were dense woods, aiid next a smal! cotton fei, hounded by @ creek, beyond which were n h a beavy undergrowth, On (he rigot of the road was a skirting of trees, with a feveo aud two ditches, and defond a wide field, reaching to the ereek. Generals Hatch and Potter personally superiatended the aispost dion of the infantry and artillery in the two fields ana k woods the fond, the One Bvudred and Twenty cevecth et ekivmishing throagh the woods apd up the road beyond the creek, While the sta’ of the two generals were in & group in the road, and just as both of the latter bad jumped their borses over the ditches, a solid ehot—the frat one fire¢—came ricochet. tng down the read and struck aming them. The shot oestly amputated a horae’s leg Captain Goraud, of Goneral. Foster's staif, was reconcottering up the-road on a fargo bay, and the ebot was apparently aimed at bim, He narrowly escaped. ARTILLERY IN POSITION, Our artillery soon got into position, under the direction of Lieut. Col. Ames, Chief of Artit'ery of the departmert Battery B, Third New York artiltery, oponed om the revel batiery with several pieces, amd the One Hundred ard Twonty-sovonth New York, supported by the une flun- dred and Foriy-fourth New York, Colovel Lewts, and the Thirty second United States colored troops, Colonel Baird, also kept up @ fre op the enemy, and soon caused the whole force to retreat, which (hey did in rather poor order. THE TORRES IN 10H Woops. Gur foam in going throngh the woods after crossing the creek was considerable. Lieut. Col. — of the Thir ty second United Stater colored tre wounded in this his regiment's fret fight. He wes struck by a grape shot, which doubled up his sabre ana caved acontusion of the groin. He was very indignant at being wounded so early ia the engagement. Capt. Penet, of the One Huvdred and Forty-fourth, hed a leg shuttered, Dut continued egeering bis men white bis leg was being wemrorartly bandaged. Private Van Buren, of bis com pany, bed both legs shattercd and mangled above the kves by a discharge of grape. THE ENeWY 7R/2s Pree. Op tbe right of the read, a litte further on, wasa Geld covered with ary grass, which the reels set on ore, partly, it wae suspected, with designs on our caissons, as we advavced. Scmeof the fgbting occurred there, our men advancing thropgh fire wud smoke and burulng coals, PUSHING AREAD, ‘The rebels contioued to ‘atl back up the road, pursued by our troops, and annoying them as much as porsibie. Part of the way the woods wera so dense that the advance was mecessarily in column along the road, with only a fow flankers out, struggiing along through « vine under growth, with aire beneath The rebel infantry retreated to near their Honey Hil! battery, «nd there made a stand, ith their fleld pieces at the bexd of the road, in front, thelr tufantry deploying tn line of pattie in their rear. THE ARTILLERY DURT. A duel between two pieces of about equal calibre on each side followed. Battery @ advanced to the point directéd with great rapidity, and foaght their guas tn tplendid atyle.

The battery had four em orasures, cach containing a gun, as vearly as the smoke would porumit of ascertaining. It was ov the brow of a email bill, with an outwork ip front mt Denking breast. works DISPORTIONG OF TAE ENEMY, The rebel forces were quickly disposed im these works, with a beavy fine of skirm:shers on esch flank, alarge force of infantry in the fort acd works in the centre, and a body jn the recr as areserve. The rebel flanks ad thick woods for cover, whie our whole live, from the formation of the ground, was necessarily much more expo ed. THR ACTION. The Thirty-second United States colored troops wero ordered to charge the rebel fort as soon as we bad got ia position at the hed of the rend, They attempted, but vot stuck in the marsh, which they found impass.ble at the point of their aesauit, aod a galling fire of grape, canister and inurketry being opeved on ihem, they wee forced to retire, The Thirty-fith United States colored troops alo es.

CHARACTER OF TH ACTION. ‘Tho musketry Oring was terrific. For seven hours the din was kept up, almost drowning tbe artillery d8 charges. Sometimes volley would follow volley the whole leogth ofthe line, and then a scattering Gre would fotervene, but for ® moment only, to be sue ceeded by deafening discharges, Tho result would havo been more apparent io killed end wounded on both sides but for the trees, which stopped many buliots, THR WOUNDED. The wounded wore rapidly removed by stretcher men, and hcepitals were located all along the route, where surgeoos were located and attended to their wounds, The conduct of some of the sufferers was herole, Some, when mortally wounded, insisted on remaining with their regiments, and only reiuctantiy allowed thomselves to be taken away when they found they could not stand or help thernselves. All were patient, and only those who were tora by ehells or received painful wounds groaned or complained. BEHAVIOR OF THR NAVAL BRIGADR The Naval Brigado behaved splendidiy When the order came to them to go to the front and take porttion on the right (ney seemed as plossed as if invited to an extra ration of grog. A bunéred or two py hands were thrust into blue ebirts for tobacco, and a hundred cheeks protruded with the battie’s supply, and then they wont ahead, led by the sturdy Commander Preble, hia gray bair fluticring in the breeze. Whcu a straggler was encountered Jack showed bim ne mercy. “What ye doing, way off bere, ye luvberf” would bo his saluta- tion; and then, if he didn’t "bout face, blows and even kicl rere tbe penalty. “Starboard a littiel’’ shouted captain of a guo, apprehending collision in double quickiog past acolored regiment. When they got ioto. action they worked on their knees, and the e:nd about was full of the snuke-like tracks they made. When the pieces were discharged they were under and all about them, and when one wes fatally shot his earest comrade usually informed bias that he was ‘gone up.” There was pot e ekulker from the brigade during the dey—not aman sbirkeé bis duty. I cunnot say much for their marching or the precision of the naval ivfantry movements; but T never saw so much coolness, or se much espris du corps befere. Une sailor, badly wounded, was laid by the cide of a colored soldier shot through the leg. The latter was groaning @ good deal, and the eailor imperiously directed kim to “sbus up.’? Not complying, he was ia- forined that bis nose would be “‘masbed"’ if his “muy” remained longer open; aod the next groan that came wis the signal for a blow (vom a fist lire e sledge. INCIDENTS. Ove skirmisher, who was Iving down ta the extreme front, rose up to light bis pipe. The latter was in his while be beid a match in bis right band, and the matcb box to the other. A bullet, piercing bia forehesa, kiffed him instantly, and his body lay there for some time, the pipe still in bis mouth, and the Gagers clutobing the matc’ and box, Colonel Pierce, a volunteer on General Hatch’s ata, while at the fromt, remarked that be would go back where the rebels wore turnieg our let and sce bow strong they were. Hi 8 gone but a moment and returned with his coat tora and a wound on the leg, where @ bullet had greed it. Lieutenant Colonel Bennett, Capt. Silva, Lieutenants Mc Martin ard Vav Winkle, Captain Jewett, Surgeon Burton, avd ip fact all the stall officers, wore consptcuons for thelr bravery, and most efivient in the discharge of their duties. Fortuuatcis and elngulas Bone of them were bit. Liertenant Colonel Woodford, of the Ove Hundred and Twenty -#eventh, bid the bridge of his nose jast grazed by @ Minie ball, but received uo other Iojury. Colonels Gurney, Baird aud Lewis, though much ox- posed, were not bit. THL NOVEMENT ON THR COOSAWRATCHIB ROAM During the forenoon of Wednesday, a force under com. mand of Maj. J. Anderton, of Gen. Vorler'e staff, went up the Coosawhatchie rond, the same trast taken by our ad- yance on the afternoon of J.

Niet, Superinteudont of Armed Tromsports, was with Major Avacceop, and they were al- most under the murzies of the gone when they diecow ered them by being fired on, ‘They withdrew because they found, by de=pstehes from headquartera, (hot cotk- ing could be gained by advancing. THE PREP NT Poss OF OUR FORCES, General Yoster findiog the encmy’s position at Honey Hill too strong to bo esclly token, and not of sefficisat improtance, considering the cbject of the expedition, to warrants continvsnce of the engagement, withdrew to a atrong position on the Savannah road, from which he will be abic to conduct futnre operations. 2 Caavalticn im the Battle.

The gold market has been jess excited tc-day thao yes, terday, aod there was xn absence of importact rumors on the street. The speculative feciing at the close of bus! Dees was rather tame, and the upward movement conse- quent on the absurd bill istroduced by Mr. Stevens ie Congress,as well asthe radical tone of the President's Message and the {nilure of the Secretary of the Treasury to propose a pla for the future, bas been partially checked, The quotations were as follows:— At the first seasion of the stock board there was an active brokers’ market, with @ disposition to advaace pricos.

Abe amount, it will be re. membered, was official, ated to be twenty-five mntilions; but wo understaad that a well known specu- lative banker in Exchange place received through the Fourth National Baok twe millions ef the loan in excess of tuis amount fe ts supposed to bi been lergely “plore” of the boads previous to the Treasury award ‘boing made, uader tbe expectation that he would be able to get al he wanted from the government at 194, imevead of 106, at which the award was made When nations! bank presidents sell down gov- @rnwent securities in the opon market, in the hope of Drivately making cheap purchases irom the Treasury ‘with which to fill their contracts at a handsome prolt to themavlves, a strong argumoot is presented both against their patriotism acd loans negotiated in such a rep. rehensible and suspicious manner, Moreover, this addi. tioual issue of two millions to a Treasury favorite was, ender all tue circamstances of the cage, a very dubiow Proceeding, and the omission to include it in the oMcial statemolt calls or explanation from the Sub-Treasurer, ‘The rate for money on oail was more strictly seven per oent to day, and the capital offering was barely in excess of the demand in some quarters, First class commercial paper is discounted at 734 @ 10 per cont, There im only w very moderate inquiry for foreign ex- change. The asking retes for bankern’ sterling arc an- changed, viz:—-100% © 3% at sixty days, and 110% at Whree days, Merchanta’ bills are offered at 108 a 34. ‘Whe etrauge error respecting the amount of the national debs which cropt into the publiebed report of the Prest- dent's Message can hardly be attributed to the I’resident Or bis assistants in ite preparation, a8 svoh no rence of facta and figures as it would indi. cate can bardiy be e@upposed to exist in the Executive mansion, We put it dowo as a telegraphic misteke ov Orat reading it, and thérefore omitted to call Sttoution to It; but it would be eatisfsctory to know whether or not this inference is correct.

The discretion thes confided should, in the Opinion of the Secretary, include the power of inoreasing the currency.” What te the nation to expect from a finonce minister who tulke in this way, wheo pot very Tauck jess than a thoussnd miluous of curremoy, includ. ; ie the State and national baok issues, already dood the and .whon this currency infigtion . bas, on more. than the eutire funded debt to do Preciate the gold value of the paper dollar to About forty one cents, at which it stends today?, Mr Fessenden would seem to be deliberately inviting the | worst evils that inevitably overtake excessive teaues of irredeemable paper money, And yet, while asking for this wide—too wide—discretionary power, be appeals. to the people to save bim from the necessity of using i in these words:—'Nor does he believe that @ patriotie people, struggling for national existence apd possessed of amplo means, would compel bm to adopt @ measure so fraught with, injurious conzequences as an Issue of paper money beyond the Hmit #0 prescribed.” And “to no individual ‘would any considerable addition to the circulation tn ang form be more objectionable than to the present head of the Treasury Departwent, and po one would resort to Such @ measure when the circulation was adequate to the wants of business with more reluctauce,” Nerein we have.# virtual aduisaion that ho t ready to ingreuse the volume. of: the currency indednitely to foat hia loans, or when there is, in his opinion, wot enough money togupply the wants of trade. If a hundred and sixty millions tu coin.and ove hundred and forty miliions jo bank notes was suflicient for the needs of commorce in the whole of the loyal states at and before the time of the suspension of specie payments, nearly « thousand millions ought to be enuugh now. Mr, Feasenden unfortunately seems to overlook the fact that the more paper money there ts in circulation the more we require; for overy addition to its balk tends to its depreciaiion, and coneequentiy the greater ig the amovut required for commen uses, When thonsands of milltons of Frenoh assignats had. been issued, where before hundreds had eulced, the Dircotory etill wanted and issued more because their purchasing power had di- minished Ja proportion to the extent of their issue; and so it was with the old Continental money of tuis country, amd the end of both was worthlossness and repudiation by the people, But the waraiugs of bistory may well be wegiected by one who tas fai to profit by the great lesson tanight by the Secal policy thus. far pursued ucdor this Administration, ‘It is for the people,” says Mr. Feasca. den, “to determine whethet tbe necessary meaus shall be furnished by way of loans and the circulation be re- Mrained wilbio safe limits, or whethor they will prover to endorse the evils of exorbitant prices, with & Joss of aredit in the present. and @ debt of Beediess mogaitude entailed upou the future, Their Auencial officer oan culy submit to their deaisien and act 08 the nececaities Of the cocasion way demand."’ As he makes no objection to the amount of cusreucy outstand- ing, but, Mke Oliver Twins, asks for more, ft. is to be inferred shat be conaiders it as yet withio ‘nate limite '” He speaks of loangas the only eiternative of curreacy inflation, apparently placiog no retience upon increased taxation. Indeed in that part of hie report where ho refers specially to taxation, he estimates tho probable receipts (after adding what he considers a contingeut sum of fifty millions) from intcroal revenue at only three hondred millions fer (be current fiscal year. It i exsy, however, for any one scqualuted with tho resources of the nation to see that double this sum might be raised without pressing unduly upov any section of the commu. nity. But upon this impertant branch of bis subject the Secretary has nothing to ray worth meastioniug, He avoids it as he bas avoided telling the people what the waticnal debt is at the present timo, and the ratio of increase of this from the lst of July, apto which time his statements only extend, to the end of October, con. tradict higestimates for the future, and he leaves the country tn a fog, to got out of its financial embarrase- ments in the best way it enn. Therefore the country aust look to Congress and not to the head of the Trea- sury for relief.
