J Yesterday, iko list day of July, 1841, agreat battU was fought and a great victory won by by the Confederate troops. Hearts smiled on our arms, and the God of battles crowned our banners with laurels of glory. Let erery pa triotic heart giro thanks to the Lord of Hosts for the rictory He has giren His people on His own holy day, the blessed Sabbath. Gen. Johnston had arrired the preceding day with about half of the force he had, de tailed from Winchester, and was the senior of- ficer in command. He magnanimously insisted, howerer, that Gen. Beauregard’s prerious plan should be carried out, and he was guided en- tirely by the judgment and' superior local knowledge of the later. While, therefore, Gen. Johnston was nominally in oommand, Beaure gard was really the offioer and hero of the day. You will be glad to learn that he was this day advanced from a Brigadier to the rank of a futl General. But to the battle. At half past six in the morning, the enemy opened fire from a battery planted on a hill beyond Bull’s Run, and nearly opposite the center of our lines. The battery was intended meroly to " beat the bush," and to occupy our attention, while he moved a heavy oolumn to wards the Stone Bridge, over the same creek, upon our left. At 10 o’clock, another battery was pushed forward, and opened fire a short distance to the left of the other, and near the road leading North to Centreville. This was a battery of rifled guns, aud the object of itefire was the same as that of the other. They fired promiscuously into the woods and gorges on this, the Southern, side of Bull’s Run, seeking to create the impression thereby that our oen- tre would be attacked, and thus prevent us from sending reinforcements to our left, where the real attack was to be made. Beauregard was not deceived by the msumuvre. It might not be amiss to ssy, that Bull’s Run* or creek, is North of this place, und runs near ly due east, slightly curving around the Junc tion, the nearest part of which is about Ji miles. Tbe Stone Bridge is some seven miles distant, in a north-westerly direction, upon which our left wing rested. Mitchel’s ford is directly North, and distant four miles, by the road leading to Centreville, which is seven miles from the Junction. On our right is Un ion Mills, on the same stream, where the Al exandria and Manassas railroad crosses the Run, end distant four miles. Proceeding from Fairfax Coart House, by Centreville, to Slone Bridge, the enemy passed in front of our en tire line, but et a distance ranging from five to two miles At 9 o’clock, I reached an eminence nearly opposite the two batteries mentioned above, and which commanded a full view of the coun try for mttes around, except on the right.— From this point I could traoe the movements of the approaching hosts by the clouds of dust that rose high above the surrounding hills.— Our left, under Brigadier-Generals Evans, Jaok- aon and Cocke, and Col. Bar tow, with the Geor gia Brigade, composed of tho 7th and 8th reg iments, had been put in motion, and was ad vancing upon the enemy with a force of about 15,000, while the enemy himself was advanc ing upon our. left with a compact column of at least 40,000. His entire force on this side of the Potomac is estimated at 74,000. These ap proaching columns encountered each other at 11 o'clock. Meanwhile, the two batteries in front kspt up their fire upon the wooded hill where they supposed our centre lay. They sent occasion al balls, from their rifled cannon, to the emi nence where yonr correspondent stood. Gens. Beauregard, Johnston and Bonham reachtd this point at 12, and one of these balls passed directly over and very near them, and plung ed into the ground a few paces from where I stood. I have the ball new, and hope to he able to show it to you at some future day. It Is an 18 pound ball, and about 4 inches long. By the way, this thing of taking notes amidst a shower of shells and balls is more exciting than pleasant. At a quarter pMt 12, Johnston and Beauregard galloped rapidly forward in tbe direction of Stone Bridge, where the ball had now fully opened. Your correspondent followed their example, and soon reached a position In front of the battle field. The artillery were the first to open fire, pre cisely at 11 o’otoek. By half-past 11, the in fantry had engaged, and Chart it was that the battle began to rage. The dusky columns whick had thus far marked the approach of the two armies, new mingled with great clouds of amoks, as It rose from the dashing guns be low, and the two shot up together like e huge pyramid of red and blue. Tbe shook wes as tremendous as ware the odds between the two forces. With what anxious hearts did wa watch that pyramid of amoks and dust 1 When it moved to the right, we knew the enemy were giving way ; and when It moved to the left, wa knew that our friande wart receding. Twite the pyramid moved to the right, and ae often returned. At laat, ebout two o'oleek, it begin to tnoveslpwl/ to tbe left, and thus It eon tinned to move for ffco mortal hours. The enemy wee seeking to tern our left lank, and to reaeh the railroad leading heme In the di rection of Winchester. T* do this, he extend ed hie lines, which he was enable to do by t ef kis greet on our part which .weakened the ferae of onr resistance along the whole Has of battle, wbleh finally extended over a spaoo of two miloe. It also rendered It the more difficult to bring up reinforcement#, ae tbe further the enemy ex tended hie right, the greeter the distance onr reserve foroee bed to travel to ooanteraet the movement. Thle effort to turn our flank wae pressed with great determination for five long, weary hour*, during which the tide of battle ebbed and flow ed along the entire line with alternate for- tunee. The enemy'e column continued to slrctek awey to tba left, like a hugs anaeends, seeking to envelope us within its mighty folds and crush us to death ; and at one time it re- eily looked as if bs would suooeed. But hurt 1st me pens# to explain why it was cur rein forcements were so late in arriving, and why a certain other important mevemant miscar ried. The moment he discovered the enemy’s or. dsr of battls, Geo. Beauregard, it is said, dis patched orders to Gan. Swell, on our extreme right, to move forward and turn hie left or rear. At the earn# time he ordered Geaerale Jonee, Longetreat and Bonham, occupyiag the eenlre of our llnee, to cooperate in thia move ment, but not to move until Gen. Ewell had made the attack. The order to Gen. Ewell un fortunately mieesrried. The other# were de livered, but as tbs movements of tbe oentre were to be regulated eatirely by those on the right, nothing was done at all. Had tba orders te Gsn. Ewell been received and carried out, and eur entire force brought upon the field, we should have "destroyed the enemy's army al most literally. Attacked in front, on the flank and in the rear, he could not poeeibly have escaped, exoept at tbe lose of thousands ef prisoners and all his batteries, whils the field would have been strewed with hie dead. Finding that his ordsrs had in some way failed to be executed, Gen. Beauregard at last ordered up a portion of the forces which were intended to co operate with General Ewell. It was late, however, before these reinforcements came up. Only one brigade reached the field before the battle was won. This was led by Gen. E. K. Smith, of Florida, formerly of the United States army, and was a part of General Johnston’s column from Winchester. They •should have reached here tbe day before, but were prevented by an accident on tbe railroad. They dashed on the charge with loud shouts and In the most gallant style. About the same time, Msj. Elsey (formerly of the Augusta Ar senal,—I may have his title wrong,) coming down the railroad from Winchester with the last of Johnston’s brigades, and hearing the firing, immediately quit the train and struck across the country, and, as a gracious fortune would have it, he encountered the extreme right of the enemy as he was feeling his way around our flank, and with his brigade struck him like a thunderbolt, full in the face. Find ing he was about to be outflanked himself, the enemy gave way after the second fire. Mean while, Beauregard rallied the centre and dash ed into the very thickest of the fight, and af ter him ruahad our own brave boya, with a ahout that teemed to shake the very eaith.— The reault of this movement from three dis tinct points, was to force back the enemy, who began to retreat, first in good order, and final ly in much confusion. At this point ths cav alry were ordered upon the pursuit. The re treat now became a perfect rout, and it is re ported that the flying legions rushed past Cen treville in the direction of Fairfax, as if the earth had been opening behind them. It wae when Gen. Beauregard led the final charge, that his horse was killed by a shell. We captured thirty-four guns, including Sherman’s famous battery, a large number of small arms, thirty wagons loaded with provis ions, 4c., and about 700 prisoners. Among the latter, were Gen. Burnsides, of the Rhode Is land brigade, Col. Corcoran, of the New York Irish Zouaves, Hon. Mr. Ely, member of Con gress, from New York, Mr. Carrington, of this Stats, a nephew of the late Wm. C. Preston, who had gone over to the enemy, and thirty- two Captains, Lieutenants, 4c. Wc came near bagging the Hod. Mr. Foster, Senator from Connecticut. The official raports ef the casualties of the day have not yet come in, and consequently it is impossible to ssy what our loss is. I can only venture an opinion, and that is, that we lost in killed, wounded and missing, about 1,400—of which about 400 were killed. The enemy’s loss wae terrible, being at the loweat calculation, 3,000. Thus far I have said but little of tbe part ta ken by particular officers and regiments; for the reason that 1 desire first to obtain all the facts. Nor have I said anything of the gal lant seventh and eighth regiments from Geor- gia. This put of my duly i. molt nuleeeholy. It may b« enough to «»y, that thay war# the only Georgia regiment a here at the time, that they were among theaarliaat in the Sold, and in tha thickaat of the fight, and that thair praiaa ia upon tha lipa of the whole army, from Gen. Beanregard down. Col. Gartrell ltd tha aa.enth regiment, and Lieutenant-Colonel Gardner the eighth, the whole under the com mand of Col. Bartow, who lod them with a gallantry that waa never excelled. It waa when the brigade waa ordered to teke one of the enemy’i atrongeat batteriaa, that it suffered moat. It waa • meat deaperate undertaking, and Mlowed by the bloodied remit.. The battery occupied tho top of a hill, on tha op- poaite .Ido ef Ball'* Bun, with n amall piece of wooda on the left Demanding the .alley along the Bnn, he proceeded under co.er of the kill to gain tbe wooda alluded to, end from which he proponed to make a daah at the bat tery and eaptura Ik On reaching the woode, he diaeorerod that the battery waa anpperted by a hoary Infantry feroe, eatfmated at 4,000 man. Thli who!, force, together with tha bat tery, wu turned open the eighth regiment, which waa in tha res, with terrilo effect Indeed, he wea oxpoaed on tha Saak and in front to e tre that the oldeat retareal could net here meed.

It wan obaerred that tha hem with whlak hla maya- storm the battery; so, pleciog himself At the heed of the seventh regiment, be ageio led tbe charge, thle time on feet, and gallantly en couraging hie men as they rushed on. The first discharge from the enemy's guns kilted the regimontal color bearer. Bartow Immedi ately seised the flag, and again putting bimeelf in the front, dashed on, flag In hand, hie vefoe ringing clear over the battle- field, and saying* “On, my boye, we will die rather then yield or retreat." And on the brave boye did go, end faster flew the anemy’s bullets. The fire wee awful. Not late than 4,004 muskets were pouring their fatal contents open thsin, while the battery itself was dsaling death on every side. The gallant Eighth Regiment, which had already passed through tbe distressing ordeal, agsiu rallied, determined to stand by their ohivalric Colonel to the last. Ths more furious the fire, the quioker bscene the advancing step of the two regiments. At last, and j ust whan thay were nearing tha goal of their hopes and almost in tbe arms of victory, tho brave end noble Bartow was shot down, the bell striking him in the left breast, just above ths heart. His men rallied around him, aud find ing him mortally wounded and that the (orcts that had been ordered to support their charge had not yet come up, they gradually fell back bearing him in thair arms and disputing every Inch of ground. I learn that they would nev er have retired hut for the orders which came to them to do so, and which were given in conse quance of the non-arrival of the supporting force. It appears that the order to sup- portonr charge, like that to Gen. Evell, miscar ried—a failure which had nearly cost us two of the best regiments in the army. Col. Bar tow died soon after he was borne from the field. His last words, as repealed to me, were: "they have killed me, my brave boys, but never give up the ship—we’ll whip them yet." And so wa did I The field officers of the Seventh Regiment escaped except Col. Gartrell who received a ■light wound. All tbe superior officers in the Eighth Regiment, except Msj. Cooper, were killed or wounded. Lieut Coi. Gardner had his lag broken by a musket ball, and Adjutant Branoh was killed. Cspt. Howard of tbe Moon tain Rangers from Merriwether county was al so killed. But I shall not go into a statement of the killed and wounded preferring in deli cate and painful a matter to await the official report, which I hope to get to morrow, when I ■hall have more to say about our heroic regi ments. I will add just here, that our lose in officers was very great. Among others may be mentioned Gen. Bee, Lieut* Col. Johnson of Hampton’s Legeon, and Col. Tbomts of Gen. Johnston’s Staff, and others. Gen. Jsckson wss wounded in the hsnd, and Coi. Wheat of the New Orleans Tigers was shot through the body. •Col. Jones of the 4th Alabama Regiment it is feared wss mortally wounded. The regiments that suffered most and were in the thickest of the fight, were the 7th and 8th Georgia, the 4th Alabama, Fourth South Carolina Hampton’s Legeon, and 4th Virginia. The New Orleana Washington Artillery did great execution* If we consider the numbers engaged and the character of tbe contest, we may congratulate ourselves upou having won, one of the most brilliant victories that any race of people ever achieved. It waa the greatest battle ever fought on this continent, and will take its place in history by the aide of the moat memorable gagemeuts. It is believed that General Scott himself waa nearby, at Centreville, and that he directed as he had planned, the whole move ment. Gen. McDowell was the active c mander upon the field. President Davis arrived upou the field at 5 o’clock just as the enemy bad got into full re treat Hia appearance waa greeted with about after about, and was equivalent to a reinforce mentof 5,000 man. He left Richmond at 7 in tha morning. But"little Beaury” against the world. Lead t Lead! Lead ! W« would most earnestly call tbe attention of Southern people to the importance of in creasing the quanity of lead. There are large quantities of this metal in various parte of Virginia and ether Southern States. It is on ly necessary to be known that there ia a de mand for every pound that can he got. Indi viduals cannot employ their means more pro fitably than by working lead mines Tbe soon er they do it the better for them aud them county. Wa cannot kill all the Yankees without tbs help of lead. Steal will do very well for thoas who will aland close quarters. But there are a great many of them w ho “caU oulata on keeping at a respectful distanoe and picking us off "at long taw.’* We must have lead for them. All papers in the State and in other South ern 8tates ere requested to call the attention of their readers to this subject. flG^We cheerfully comply with the request of the Riehraond Whig by giving publicity to the above. The Battle at Carthage, Missouri. We see it stated that Col- Hughes, of the First regiment of Missouri 8tate Guard, baa furnished the St. Louie presi with an accouot of this battle, fought, ae will be remembered, on the 6th of Julv. It la represented as being and obstinate, desperate affair, continuing from 11 o’clock in the morning until dark.— The Slate troops Lost fifteen killed and forty wounded, including several offioere. Tbe as certained lose of the Federate wae 160 killed and 800 woundedd, n cannon, baggage and horses.

One of those, James Woolridge, of Capt. Blankin- •hip’s company, who wae wounded, made for a tree, wbloh would afford him protection, but just as he arrived there a Unoolnite came up, who disputed the possession of the tree with Wooldridge. The matter wae, however, quickly eettled, for without aey parley Wool ridge ran his bayonet tbrongh tbe Yankee, killing him Instantly. A federal officer then rode up, who had observed the affair, and while Woolridge’s bayonet was still in tbe body of his victim, ordered him to surrender. The proposition, however, did not accord with Wooldridge’s idea, for in an inetaot bis bayo net was withdrawn, when he let the offioer have tbe full benefit of it, and killed him in stantly nlso. Two more Linooluites were just then rushing upon Wooldridge, but observing the fate of those who had preceded them, im mediately turned about, and taking to their heels os fast as they oould, left our hero ia possession of the much coveted tree. Wool dridge was subsequently wounded, no doubt in consequence of exposiog bimeelf unneces sarily. Another of tbe incidents mentioned to us is, that while a negro servant of Capt. Laog- horne’s company [the same, no doubt, refer red to in the letter of our Army Correspond ent, published yesterday.—Eds. Confsdbua— ct ] wae moving about over the field, he wae ordered to surrender by a Federal officer, who rode up to where he wae unexpectedly.— Nothing daunted, however, and not relishing tbe idea of surrendering to a Yankee, the ne gro replied, “ No sir-ree, you are my prison er/ 1 at the earns moment drawing a pistol aod shooting the officer dead. Tbe sable hero then secured tbe officer’s side-arms, and when the battle was over boasted largely of having given a quietus to one at least one of “ the Blinkin’ Yankees who como here ’ppecting to whip ut Southerners.” A Procession of Starving Women. The New York Journal of Commerce of the 16th of July says : A large number of hungry women, with babies in their arms, misled by erroneous an nouncements in several newspapers, gathered on Monday in front of the branch office of the Union Defeuse Committee, No. 14 Fourth avenue, expecting aid from the Committee. That office not having been re opened, tbe half famished creatures marched, two by two, to the City Hell in search of the Mayor, who was not there. Tired with their long walk and ravenous for food, they became wild with disappointment on learning that the Mayor was not in. One of them threatened to drown herself and child. Another said she was wil ling to starve, but her baby should have food, even if she stole it. A third said that she would never have allowed her son to enlist (in the Mozart Regiment) if be bad not prom ised that his mother would receive two dol lari a week from the city. These frantio ex pressions of grief and rage were at last silenoed by one of the Mayor’s clerks, who directed the poor women to the rooms of the Union Defense Committee, in Fine street. Thither they went, and rushed into tbe apart ment, orying out: 44 We are starving.” **We want money.” Gen. Wetmore, Secretary of the Committee, kindly explained to the clam orous crowd that there was no money ou hand, but that several gentlemen were trying to raise some, and would probably be ready to relieve them in a day or two. He advised them to go home. This advice, though unde niably well meant, did not fill empty stom achs, and the poor women continued lo plead for money and food, alternating their entree ties with execrations upon the war, the Com mittee and the oity authorities for a long lime. Finally, finding that their implorations availed nothing, they one after auother with drew from the Committee’s room, to seek for oold charity in the streets, or to go home and starve. The Sub-Committee on lleiief mot in the afternoon, aud prepared a plan of assistance which they will present to the General Com mittee at that meeting to morrow. Do.v’t Confooxd thx Names.—The Fairfax Station is often confounded with Fairfax Court House. The former is situated on Orange and Alexandria railroad, eighteen miles from Al- andria, and tbe Court House or county teat of Fairfax county, is a village about fourteen milos from Alexandria, ou the wagon road leading to Warranton. And ths earns may be said of Manassas Gap and Manassas Junction. The latter place is where our soldiers are en- oamped, and is about 25 miles from Alexan- daia. The Gap is in tbe valley of Virginia, running through the Blue Bidge mountains, and about 60 miles from the Junction.—Rich mond Enquirer.
