We sunk the Cumberland. drove the Congress ashore, where she handled down her colors and hoisted the white but she fired upon us with the white flag flying, wounding Lieut, Minor and some of our men. We again opened fire upon her, and she is now in flames. The shoal water prevented our reaching the other frigates. This, with approaching night, we think, saved them from destruction.
