The wight was beautiful, the moon shining brightly and earenely, but no damage of any account resulted from the affair, The firing lasted about two boura, end it was thought to be the prelude to an attack @ some part of our Hne. Heavy firing was also beard during the nigh', in the direction of Gen. Butler's Department, but nothing has been heard from thet point concerning !t, The cavalry under Gen, Gregg had an engagement with the rebels, and drove them from some works near the Newmarket goad, but the rebels rallied from the different forte fn the vicinity, and finally forced our cavalry to fall back upon their infantry supports, Col.Gregg, eommanding the Second Brigade of the Second Division of the Cavalry Corps, wae severety wounded ip the engagement, Is /s said that Gen.

M.— The mai! steamor Vanderbilt has just arrived from City Point. At one o'clock this morning, the rebels made a furious attack on our lines, or rather that portion of them consisting of General Burnaide's Corps, on the left. The fight was chiefly with artillery, and lasted two hours, when the rebele foll back without attempting an assault upon our works, Our loss was sinall, The left wing of the army on the north aide of the river rests on the James, and holds the pom- tion gained on Sunday last, The right wing has edvanced and is upwards of four miles from Ma)- vern Hill, in the direction of Richmond, Matvern Hill is in our possession. Very beavy cannonad- ing was beard np the river, commencing at one o'clock, and Inating til) 2:39 thie morning. The cause, or the result was not ascertained, FOrRTH pisratTcn, Washington, Aug, 19.—The mai) steamer which arnved to-day, reporta there was 4 rumor at City Point, when she left yesterday, that « strong recon- poleance sent by Gen. Hancock, bal reached Fair Osks, REBEL ACCOUNTS, Washington, Aug. 19.—The latest intelligence from Mobile ds the following from the Richmond mont to-~<day : Mobile, Aug. 18,—Two monitors and five gun- boate crossed Dog River bar, and coming up to within two miles of the obstructions, ned fire for threg hours on our batteries and gunboslay do- ing no ceaher. One of our gunboata replied hand. somely, Our betterioa were silenced. At sunset the enemy hauled off. Firing waa beard iu the direction of Fort Morgan this morning. (Dog Biver Bar is about 4% miles from the heart of the city of Mobile. It is 80 milos above Fort Morgan, which standa at the entrance of the bay.) (By Mail.) The Mobile Reatsres of the 10th has the follow- ing editorial, showing the feeling in the city: On reseipt of the news that the enemy had passed Fort Morgan, the Genera! ordered the bel! rung, according to gpevious notice as a signal to the cit- izens that tae time for completing their organiza- tions wae at hand, and thet this work could no longer be delayed. It je unnecessary to aay that this sumaious caused excitement ; but if it ook of che nature of panic, we were not able to jscover it. Several*new organisations were set oD foot atnong the: citizens, while those of the military why are bere ebeent from their com- mands showed a. commendable alacrity in their oh roy for bearing « in the work be- lore them, Among the acta of the day was that of the Mayor and municipal boards, pledging the resources of the city to the com- mending General, and requ n to defend Mobile to the last extremity. ese are stro words, and we doubt not the city autho ties used them with e full understanding of their org! import. We understand them to mean at Mobile is not to be made e second New Or- jeans but that when on shall have been ¢ for eafety, and in vain (if it must be en) the hon of the city will still remain in his handa, and thas the wish of the pic is that tt be made s pile of ruling, an altar of sacrifice, rather than become the theatre for euch disgraceful scenes ns have been enacted in our sister city. If there are any who dissent from this view, who would consent to live under Yankee rule, we wern them to book to their goods and chattela—their houschold gods, and the only ones which thoir craven spirita acknowledge for we have soundod the hearts of the real peop! of Mobile in vain for the last three years if it falls into the hands of the enemy otherwise than a <esolate, fire blackened waste. it we are persuaded beter things, though we thus and we do not be- Neve it ia written in the book of fate that the ene- my are to tread even the ashes of Mobile, and they themeelves do not expect it thistime. Where is their co-operating laud force? and without it what impression can they make upon our inner Une of defences? Indeed, if the forte but hold ous an o; it} ta iteelf for a en- did Glicten oven ror their naval force, rita whom {t is a problem for the solution of which we shall look with some curtosity how they ere to run beck Fort Morgan after they have burned all thefr coal, Even, however, tf the forts fall the powerful batteries which gird the front of our city remain to give the enetwny another Fort McAllister leason, and with this difference : that at Fort McAllister they had deep water to fight in, while bere its dhe)!ownese permits only the access of the woaker craft, many of which, if they have the folly to engage acriounly, will be sent to keep the Tecumseh company. On that side we are sale; on the other # bebooves us all, young men and old, to put our hands to the work and give our servicos to the Commanding General, who will Keep “watch bpared Yankee force or guile." In conclusion, to e of the city wo can only speak in terms of } Maury’s order, I means that the city should strip for the fight, and send off the non- combatants, The steamboats and railroads wil! carry off «ll non-combatants who apply, an with- out charge to those who cannot pay. The object in to save life and limb when the city is shelled. There is no thought of surrendering tho city, nor any belief that it can be taken. GENERAL SHERMAN, ‘The Fight at (ira:eville.
