On Friday morning, Ot-luoer 3d, our out post were attacked by the enemy in force, six mile norlhcant of thii place. By nine o'clock the engagement became general. Our men fought with great coolness, but regiment after regiment and brigade after brigade poured in upon ns, and w wer forced slowly bockwards, fighting despcratsly. The rebel pnslscd forward, holding every foot gained. They outflanked nur Inferior force right ami left and were forming In our rear. We were compelled to fall back itill lurlher, to prevent this. The movement from the ridge was ac cnmptlshrd. The cremy wcro now inside tho breastworks, pressing m toward the town, when darkness put an end to the fighting. During the day our loss wan heavy t that of the enemy must have exceeded ours. Three piece of Ihe First Missouri battery were cap tured by the enemy. Yesterday morning tho enemy opened briskly on Ihe town with shot and shell. Our batteries replied. For an hour Ihe cannon ading was very heavy.

A regiment of sharpshooters wns ordered nut to feel the en emy at hatfpnst nine, and met him three quarters of a mile from the town, advancing rapidly.

Onr loss was com paratively small during this fiarful chirge. In the cliarcc, one rebel llrlgadlrr and Iwn acting Drlgadlcrs were kilted and left on the field.
