at ooncortt ware given even among 10I-
rorortholcoo, I determined to ho pro*,
for thio was * novelty, indood. Arrirod
tho ground, imnsftglne my joy to find tho
jority of tho Atliutn Amateurs as tho par-
of whom wo might expect this treat. Tho
audlepce wot largo— oompotod of a heterogen
eous matt of people. There were young
Itdieo oud young ladiee’ sweetheart#—young
men with moustache, tod young men without
moustache— married ladiea—(no old maids)—
Colonels to tbe'amount of three—Majors and
Adjutaota ia profusion—Captains, it—Lieu
tenants tO or more, and soldiers, aa privates
aad non-commissioned, by the bueket full—
total, near 560, and all appeared to hare rad
caps, shared heads, long heads, busby heads,
but no swell heads. Among the leaders of ths
Amateurs, waa tho inimitable Bill, who noser
appeared to better sd rentage, for ho had a
thome perfectly inexhaustablo for hia famous
improvisatore, and ha need it to adrantsge, as
the Colonels well know, for he hit them sorer-
al broadsides, and they finally had to “root hog,
or die." Butthe transition from thetenor roiceof
Mr. B., to that of tha oharming treble and alto
of the Misses W., was truly fine, and as thay
warbled eong after eong, the feolinga of this
rest throng rose with them, aad tha gratitude
felt was silent, but deep. Then there was Mi*
M. and Mr. K., who ferored us with tenors and
altoa In almost ovary piece, and I assure you
that towards thsm and the few who farored us
with instrumental mnsic, compliments were
not acarce. But Lless me! how careless! I
come near forgetting the Doctor. Excuse me,
I shall not offend again. 'Tjs true, Doctor,
that when I “lay me dowu to sleep," it ap-
peard that Gabriel had sounded his trumpet,
and ns note after cote pealed forth, I could
hear nothing but “Blow ye vindB of morning "
How can 2 thank you, Doctor? command me!
And then I say, that all sellers of lager should
adopt tbee, Doctor, and that all ths Dinahs and
Viilikens should adopt you, supplying you
with tour krout and bolognas during life.
The evening's entertainment concluded with
tho touching and favorite old ballad, “good
bye," and as its last dying cadence of a “sol
dier's grave" floated on the breese, I cast my
eyes involuntarily to the front and rear, and
tears, hot tears that had alumbered for years,
gushed forth, and trickled down the cheek of
old and young. I thanked Heaven then, that 1
was a soldier. The nett proceeds, the tickets
being free, were devoted to the future welfare,
prosperity and happiness of the “Southern
Confederacy" Mark the last two vrorde. A
court of inquiry waa forthwith detailed, to as
certain whether it meant the seceded States or
your paper. Tho result has not yet transpir
ed, but you know, “birds of a feather, Ac."
We are now drilling every day in the School
of the Battalion, and we are fast approaching
perfection ; and I still say, that we will be the
beat drilled, and boat armed brigade that has
over left tho 8tato. But I grow tedioua. Your
lithograph of tho whole camp ia eagerly looked
for—hurry it up; for nearly every one will
take a copy. If you get this thiog up shortly,
I am instructed to releive your paper from
guard duty. More anon.

Louisvills, July l4.—Tba Rloh Mountain
fight 16 fissilng down considerably. Tha latest
dispatch states that lb© Southerners were only
800 strong, with two oau&eoa, Thalr lose was
about 76 killed and about as many woaadod.
Tha Federal loss ia 11 killed and 36 wounded,
tha abort is approved by Gan. MsCUlU*;
but bis own diapateh to Washington reports
20 killed aad 40 woandad.
Apparently, the Federal* had made plans
for a certain victory, and had sent out bulle
tin* containing an account of tho fight aad its
results before the fight took plaoe; but in
oonsequonoe of a oourior, who had bo«i sent
out to obtain information, losing bis wny, Mo-
Cltliaa waited a whole day for a sigaal, which
ba did not get. In cooseqatnoa of this, the
enterprise resulted only in dislodging eight
hundred Southerner* with n foroe of five Fed
eral regimants.
Washington, July 14ih.— 1 Two Southern la-
dies, who inveigled Capt. Goodwin, of Con-
neetiout, to hia capture by tha Confederates
a few days ago, have been arrested and are
held aa prisoners as a guarantee for Goodwin's
safe return.
Hon. John B. Clarke, member of Congress
from Missouri, has besn expelled from tho
House for having served under a State law of
Missouri as a soldier, [to protest his people
from the encroachments of Federal usurpa
tions —Eds. Confederacy.]
Boston, July 14.—A French vessel with aa
Admiral on board has arrived at Halifax, lit is
awaiting the arrival of six other vessels, when
ths fleet will sail for tho South. [Aba had
belter be looking out for hit blockade.]
The Steam Frigate Vincennes, is looking
out for the Privateer Jeff Davis, which has
recently captured several Boston vessels.
Richmond July, 15.—On Thursday last, a
detaohment of Cavalry, six miles from New
port News encountered a detachment of the
enemy ; killed four and took twelve prisoners.
Passengers to-day from Staunton (in Au
gusta oouuty, Va.,) stats that reports ars cur
rent there, that the Confederates had mot with
severe reverses at Laurel Hill. One report
states that sixteen hundred men under Col.
Peck were surrounded about 100 miles from
Staunton, and that Qen. Garnett’s command
has been compelled to evacuate Laurel Hill.
The reports need confirmation ; but there has
evidently been hard fighting in that section.
A letter will appear in the Richmond Dis
patch to-morrow, dated Laurel Ilill the 7tb,
which says there has been another fight and
a success for the Confederate troops at tbia
place. ‘Before daylight this morning out troops
were aroused by the firiug of the picket guard.
About daylight another volley was fired about
a mile off, and the excitement was increased
by a rapid movement of the Georgia Regi
ment and tha Cavalry. The Georgia Regiment
held the enemy in check and kept up the fire
until 3 o’clock in the afternoon, killiug and
wounding many of the Federals. At 8, the
Georgians retired, and their position was oo-
pied by other regiments.'
Another letter to the Dispatoh dated Lau
rel Ilill, 9th July, referring to the oontinued
fight, says: The gallant Georgians, under Col.
Ramsey, were again engaged early on Monday
morning, and until a late hour in the day kept
up a continous fire. The Georgians left the
ground at a late hour in the day, without a
man killed or injured.
The Lynchburg Republican of to morrow
morning will contain a statement that a skir
mish occurred 12 miles from Winchester, in
which two Federals were killed and thraa
prisoners were taken. The Confederates were
uninjured.
Nothing of importance has transpired at
Manassas and other points.
Qov. Letcher, under a requisition from tha
Secretary of War, will publish a proclamation
to morrow calling into immediate service the
militia of all the counties North of James
River and East of the Blue Ridge, as well ss
the militia in the valley in the State North cf
James River.
The Cincinnati Enquirer, of the 10th inst.,
confirms tho report of the oaptur* of three
entire companies of Federalists by O. Jennings
Wise.
The ene ay occupies Phillippt, Buckhanan
and Burlington, which ths Enquirer thinks
may help Gen. Wise.
Reports brought here by passengers rela
tive to the fight at Rieh Mountain, through
out, ara confused and unreliable, and every
way unsatisfactory. One passenger in high
official position, states that only three compa
nies, under Lieut. Col. Pegram, were engaged
with the Federals. Ths loss of the Confede
rates in killed is from 80 to 40.
Colonel Pegram was seriously woundsd and
taken prisoner. Aboot 800 Federals ara re*
ported killed.
Many Confederates, supposed to be killed
or taken prisoners, havs sines reached tka
Confederate eamp uninjured.
However intense the interest for reliable
nawa about this battle, it is impossible yet to
obtain It.
Thirteen prisoners wars brought boro to
day from Yorktown; alto two spies.
