Correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch.from Charleston. Charleston, S. C., June 29th, 1861.
Yesterday, being the eighty-fifth anniversary of the battle of Fort Moultrie, was celebrated with unusual eclat.
The Moultrie Guard and the Palmetto Guard celebrated the day with target shooting at Mount Pleasant, and in the evening these two companies marched, escorted by the Citadel Cadets, to the Institute Hall, where an oration was delivered by B. R. Carroll, Ecq.
Among the numerous pleasing incidents of the day was the presentation of a neat and handsome flag to the Charleston Zouaves.
It was presented in behalf of the givers by Gen. James Simons, who discharged his part quite agreeably.
The flag combines the Confederate and the Palmetto flags.
It is made of red, white and blue silk, trimmed with golden fringe.
The Union in blue silk.
On one side is the motto of the company--"Droit et avant"--encircled by eleven stars, and the reverse has the Palmetto tree, worked
Loss of Richmond Soldiers.
--The following is a list of the killed and wounded in company A, 15th Virginia.
This company was formed on Union Hill:
Killed: Privates Geo. W. Brooke, Charles Kepler.
Wounded: 1st Serg't C. C. Cherry, Privates Geo. W. Otey, Wm. D. Brown, James Fox, R. A. Day, W. R. Atkinson, J. B. Garthright, P. H. Hall, J. W. Herbert, T. B. Jackson, C. T. Lockett, Wm. H. Manning, J. T. Schwalmeyer, R. R. Smith, and T. P. Gill.
None of the field officers were present at the engagement and the command devolved on the senior Captain, who led the men gallantly, but was soon killed.
The next ranking Captain being also absent, Rev. E. J. Willis, formerly pastor of the Leigh Street Baptist Church, and Captain of company A, took command as next in rank.
He encouraged the men by every possible means, and exerted himself to the utmost to make the victory sure for us. At one time, seeing that the flag-bearer had been shot down, he seized the colors himself.
