third Concert at Connell’s Hall, on
Tuesday evening next, 6th inst., the

This is a worthy and patriotic object,
and we hope that all who can will at

Clothing for the Soldiers.
Gen; Ira R. Foster, in a letter to the
Atlanta Intelligencer appeals to the peo
ple in behalf of the soldiers. He says,
and wc should assume that he truly
says, “we have a long, bloody and des
perate conflict before us —that an infe r
rior army poorely fed and badly clad
can never achieve our independence. —
That Providence will feed our army
if we will cloth it.”
It is only necessary that our people
should know what the soldier requires
"to ensure bountiful supplies. Winter
is coming and clo'hing suitable to that
season should now be abundantly pro
vided. Let each family and each indi
vidual contribute their quota in Mate
rial for the comfort of the soldiers. -
Our Congressshas wisely authorized
a large increase of onr army in view
of the vast preparations of a barbarous
foe. Our all—| roperty, honor, liberty,
]jf e —hangs upon the struggle. Let us
show our troops that we, too, arc an’r
mated, by their heroism.
The goods can bo deposited with our
merchants any of whom will take pleas

CAMP MCDONALD.
Review —Speech of Gov. Brown Resig
nation of Gen. Phillips in order that
his men may go at once to I irginia.
We were prevented by circumstances
from a visit to the Camp on yesterday
—but wc learn from a reliable friend,
the chief incidcn s of this gala day with
our brave troops there stationed.
The whole Brigade, of about 2,500
men; infantry; rifle; artillery and squad
ron of horse, were all on the field with
soldierly, promptness and punctuality- -
all apparently in fine health and spirits
--except Gen. Phillips, who, just recov
ering from recent illness, looked pale
and feeble.
The day was bright and clear, a lit
tle too warm, but relieved s-mewhat by
a pleasant breeze.
The proficiency of all the troops, in
view of the fact that they, were so re
cently quiet civilians, is indeed most
gratifying, and reflects high credit upon
the officers and men, and furnishes ad
ditional evidence of the high order of
“material” of the masse, of the South.
Os the field evolutions it is but sheer
justice to say, they were admirably exe
cuted. The honor of Georgia upon the
sanguinary field, we fell fully assured,
will t»c untarnished, in the hands of her
noble sons of the 4th Brigade.
Gov. Brown addressed the Brigade
justly complimenting them. Our friend
doc* not undertake to furnish us the
details of his speech, but the most im
portant and interesting portion of it,
was that relating to the soidiers and
movement of the Brigade, In substance
he informed them, that in fulfillment of
his promise given at the time they on- >
tered ihes-amp, he had tendered them to
the Confederate Government —that it j
was his A'denC desire they should Ie ■
received as a Brigade, and he had used
every means to accomplish
that object. But. that in view us the
crisis in w hich we wee involved, whilst
he did not believe that their reception I
oil erwise than as a Brigade was the
full mvasare of justice to them or our
State, he had consented to waive that
question, provided the Confederate
tilatet gi»vcrnmenf, would receive tlreni j
fE MAR t&TTX SEIfT-WTEKTY ADV OCATE.
this vyas agreed upon, and he'
the pleasure of announcing that by
Bie 11th August, (.inst.,) they would
hasten to repel the invaders from the
soil of the.“Old Dominion” and add new.
lustre to our arms. The Governor in
behalf of Gen. Phillips; (whp. iyt tljxi.iir
gent solicitation of physician, Dr.
Batty, left the field) announced that the
General ha< patriotically declared that
his position should not for an hour de
lay the movement of the troops, and had
tendered his resignation, that they
might be mustered into the Confederate
State service as Regiments and Battal
ions. The Governor alluded to the high
compliment paid Gen. Phillips by his
men in the voluntary getting up and
forwarding by them to the President, a
petition signed by every officer of the
Brigade expressing their unbounded
confidence in him, and their preference
for him as their General.
The crowd of spectators 5,000 and.
troops 2,500, all seemed gratified—the
day was a success.
The Northern Reports,
The reports of the battle of Manassas
by the correspondents of the Baltimore
American, N. Y. Tribune, Times 'and
World, and the Philadelphia Press sub
stantially agree “.that there can bo no
longer any doubt about the disastrous
nature of the rout ot the grand Feder
al army,” and that from assailants the
North is now thrown upon the defen
sive.
The N. Y. Times says, “to attempt
any diminution of this victory of the
rebels would be absurd delusion. The
world will tell over the count of dead
and wounded, the guns captured and
standards seized will deteimine the real
magnitude cf the National loss.”
The fallowing sketch of the rout from
the World’s cm respondent will serve
from the general Northern account.
“But what i scene and how terrific
the onset of that tumultuous retreat.—
For three miles, hosts ot federal troops
—all detached from their regiments, all
mingled in one disorderly roir—were
fleeing along the road, but mostly thro’
the lots on either side. Army wagons,
o.jfUru’ teams and private carriages,
choked the passage, tumbling against
each other, amid clouds q( uusi, ana
sickening sightsand sounds. Hacks,
containing unlucky spectators of the
late affray, were smashed like glass,
and the occupants were lost sight of in
debris. Horses flying wildly irom 'he
battle field, many ol them in death agony,
galloped at. random forward, joining in
the stampede T hose on foot who could
ca'ch them rode them bare back, as
much to save themselves from being
run over, as to im.kc quicker time.—
Wounded men, lying along the banks
the few either left on the field or taken
to the captured hospitals, appealed with
raised hands to those who rode horses,
begging to be lifted-behind, but few re
garded such petitions. Then the artil
lery, such as was saved, came thunder
ing along, smashing and overpowering
everything. The regular cavalry, I re
cord it to their shame, joined in the me
lee, adding to its terrors, for they rode
down footmen without mercy. One ot
the great guns was overturned an 1 lay
among the mins of a caisson, as I pass
ed it. I saw an ar<illery-man running
between the ponderous fore and atter
wheels of his gun carriage, hanging on
with both hands, and vainly striving- to
jump upon 'he ordinance. Ihe drivers
were spurring their horses ; he could
not cling much longer, and a more ago
nized expression never fixed he features
of a drowning man. The carriage boun

leading to a creek ; he lost his hold, fell,
and in an instant the great wheels had
crushed the life out of him
Who ever saw such a flight ? Could
the retreat at Borodino have exceeded
it in confusion and tumult ? I think
not. It did not slack in the least until
Centerville was reached. There the
sight of the reserve—Miles’ Brigade
formed in order on the hill, seemed
somewhat to reassure the van. But
still the teams and foot soldiers pushed
on, passing their cwn camps ami head
ing swiftly for the distant Potomac, un
til for ten miles the road over which the
grand army had so lately passed south
ward, gay with unstained banners, and
flashed with surety of strength, was
covered with the fragments of its re

stricken in a single day. From the;
branch row e, the trains attached to
Hunter's Division had caught the c< n
tagion of the flight, and poured into its
already swollen current another turbid
freshet of confusion and dismay. Who
ever saw a more shameful abai domm nt
of munitions gathered at such expense '!
The teamsters, many of them, cut the ,
traces of their horses, and galloped from .
the wagons. Others threw ,ont tlreir !

Le Iter From Virginia.
Manassas Junction, July 21, 1861.
Mi- dear M..
- Since Hast wrote you, I have passed, in con
nection with our whole Regiment through most
.ex.cUihg anil ■>trying scenes, closing with a hard
.fought battle, resulting in one of the most deci
ded and-glorious viciories ever won. We re
ceived marching orders on Thursday the 18th
5 and left Winchester, without tent or baggage,
lin the direction of this point; yet without a
thought of our destination, as our commanding
.General kept concealed, even from the Colonels
of our different Regiments, any positive inform t
tion with regard to our contemplated movements.
It was supposed, when we starte.l on our march,
•that we were about to proceed only some 2 or
S miles, to' meet the expected advance of Gen.
-Patterson’s Federal-forces; which-was strongly
sustained by a most successful ruse practised the
evening previous—that of marching the 'th, Bth,
9th Georgia Regiments, and- Kentucky troops
some 2 miles on the turnpike leading to Charles
" town, and destroying the fences for more than a
mile in width, to impress all with the belief that
• a stand was to be made there for the enemy.-
We soon,ascertained that this was not our des
tination ; and, after having marched about two
miles on the road leading to Piedmont, Gen.
Bartow announced to us that we were on onr
way to assist -Gen. Beauregard in his fight at
Manassas, where he had engaged the enemy the
day previous, winning a successful b.it'le. Col-
Gartrell also announced to bis men. that he was
happy to inform them this was no retreat; tut
that we were marching directly for the enemy,
and would soon encounter him, which intelli
gence was received with shout after shout along
our lines.
We marched that day and the entire night—
-13,090 men along the line—wading the Shenan
doah river near midnight, all -stripped, carry
ing our blankets and arms on our bayonets
- abo -e our heads : and as we crossed over, com
pany after company, you may well imagine the
ludicrous and yet singular spectacle which was
presented. We arrived at Piedmont, after a
severe march, where we took cars for this point,
arriving Saturday about noon, and encamping
on the ground until Saturday morning. About
0 o'clock the booming of cannon, in the direc
tion of Bull Run, some 6 miles distant, announ
ce I an engagement with the enemy, who had the
diy previous destroyed a small viil ge near
there. Our Regiment with the Sth Georgia an I
other troops, was soon in line moving towards
the scene.of action, nearly the whole time at a
double quick march. Shortly after 8 o’clock
we arrived in the vicinity of the b ittle field, our
approach to wlpx’j W as announced by the whist
ling of cannon balls and bomb shells around us ;
and as our column was discovered, hundreds of
these destructive missiles fell think and r ast
around us. Our first position was a most ex
posed one—(that of the 7th) —and we lay on
our faces flat upon the ground, for near one
hour, the enemy’s cannon playing directly upon
our line. Fortunately for us, they- did not get
our range exactly, and but few shots did any in
jury. It soon became too hot, however, '.Hid the
order was given to advance, immediately across
the ti.e of the enemy’s batteries, towards our
troops, hotly engaged to the right. This order
was obeyed in double quick time, b ills, of every
conceivable size and shape flying threatengly
across our path. We here suffered pretty se-
The Sth Georgia Regiment,shortly afterwards,
engaged a portion of the enemy's advancing
column, but suffered so severely, that, after 3J
minutes fighting, they were compelled to retire
from the field for the balance of the day. From
this time until near 5 o’clock, the battleraged
furiously ; and the scene presented was sufficient
to appal the stoutest heart. Our columns fre
quently were compelled to waver, un ler the
telling fire of the enemy ; and onr Regiment par
ticularly, hid to endure a continuous exposure
to itj, for 2 hours without an »pportunity of re
turning the compliment— lying the whole time
flat upon the ground, listening to the singularly
shrill music of cannon balls, and dodging tiie
I bursting bomb shells. Occasionally however,
Qur men would get a glimpse of the enemy thro’
the intervening fences or brushes, an I would,
at the greatest risk, send back a shot, to remind
the hirelings of Lincoln that we were still far
from being kors du combat. At several times
many of ns thought the day lost; but when Gen.
( Beauregard came to our Regiment and ordered
: Col G u t roll to march to a position, in an old
; apple orchard, where the enemy, sustained by
; Sherman's celebrated battery, were endeavoring
i to gain our left fl ink, and to maintain that posi
j lion at all hazards, our spirits, scarce a moment
depressed, became lively and confident. We
[ reached the point assigned u> an 1 for two hours
! engaged the Federal forces, in more th m qn id- !
j niple our strength, pouring into them the most |
incessant and destructive fire of the day. It was
to the stand made here by our gallant 7th. that
the victory was due—so regarded and acknowl- ;
edged by all.
Col. Gartrell had been ordered not to retreat
: until reinforcements should arrive ; and he only
i fell back froir his position when the day had j
- been won —the enemy routed by a charge, head
led by Gen. Beauregard.—Sherman’s battery
c.q tured. and the banner of our Regiment plan ;
ted upon it. pierced by some dozen balls. In ;
the action, our officers an 1 men behaved with
the greatest courage and coolness. Gen. Bar
tow was shut down, and caught by Col. Gar
trell in his arm*, almost instantly expiring.—
Col. G. then mounted Gen. B’s. horse, nd took
.commaml, soon after which his horse was shot ■
ftum uqjler him. and himself wounded in the I
leg. by a bomb shell, which killed a soldier by ;
Ids-i-le. No withstanding his wound, and the
certainty that his son had been mortally woun
ded--(sthce dead; he maintained his position on
(Tie field, gallantly and bravely sustaining and
.etieering; on his men. Lieut. Col. Cooper. Major
Dunwody and Adjutant Buller, of the Staff, and
ol godd t'ld C« bb, also deserve special mention
for the coolness, ability and courage with which
they; performed the duties of their stations.
Col. Cooper and Adjutant Butler escaped with
out injury, save a-slight scratch in the face to the j
latter, sufficient to serve as a brief momanto j
of the severe battle and glorioiis victory. Maj :
Dunwody was founded in. the right shoulder-
and had his horse severely wounded in the right
hip. But he never left his post throughout the
day.
Our Cobb boys all behaved gloriously. Our
own Mountainee ,- s fought like tigers—which, in
deed, can be said of the Roswell and Powder
Springs boys also. Capt. White, was himself a
host—cool as a cucumber, and brave as a lion. —
D. B. Parks was mortally wounded, and Jno. N,
Daniell perhaps also. Cur other wounded are
Messrs. Coilins, Mullins, Bryant, Simpson, Kir
bow. Johnson, and Daniel, the German. Os the
Paulding Company. Capt. Jenkins, who bears
; this letter, the following is a list of wounded :
| Capt. C. S. Jenkins, Privates B. F. Lee. W. A.
■ Burns, A. Steinhamer, Moses Cooper. Noah
j Adcock. David Hollins, Mien White, G. B. Har
ris. Os the Power Springs Company, Capt.

severely ; J. N. Scott. Carter Meek, Win. Canant.
B. 11. Smith, W 7 Meadows, Elphin. Bishop, Thos.
Patillo, Marian Duncan slightly wounded. Os the
Roswell Company, Capt. King. Lieut. Dunwody
and Bishop were dmgeronsly wounded ; Thos.

lins, Alex. Cupp, Jno. A. Hicks, Jno. Hunter,
Jos. H. Hunter, Win. S. Mitchell, Joel Pickens,
Joshua Stephens, John Simmons, Jos. Simmons,
N. 11. Roberts slightly wounded.
Joe Tucker fought with us, but on his own
hook, with his Sharpe's Carbine, and made at
least one Yankee bite the dust. I would like to
speak of the individual bravery of our men. on
that day, for the gratification of their friends in
Old Cobb, but have not the space or time. —
Where all behaved so ncbly, comparisons would
be out of place.- Our’s was the only Regiment
which was exposed throughout the whole en
gagement, to the incessant fire ot tjie enemy ;
and to its gallant stand the victory is due.
Os the result of the battle, I can only speak
briefly. After the charge upon the enemy from
our position, the enemy fled precipitately, and
were pursued by our reserve cavalry, under the
lead of President Davis, who had a short time
previously arrived on the field,
The enemy had at least 40,003 engaged—some
say 60,030—whilst ours was scarce 15.033. Our
loss was from 1,00 J to ISO J—that of the enemy
from 10.00) to 15.033. We also captured 67
pieces of their b *st artillery, including Sher
man’s celebrated rifled battery, and thousands
of arms, besides much valuable property. We
also captured some 1200 •- r 1500 prisoners. I
have, myself, several trophes of the battle, taken
from the spot occupied by Sherman's battery,
which I visited just as the enemy retired.—
Many of onr boys have also obtained many
things as Keepsakes to remind them and their
' children of that glorious Victory.
1 should like to give you some idea of the bat
! tie field, as it was presented to me. as I looked
j for our dead and wounded, in company with Dr.
j Wilson. W. IIP Hudson, and Jas. Doncaster. For
■ a distance of three miles, over which the battle
raged, there were, at almost every ste]). traces
of the day's destruction to life and porpe.ity. -
Dead men lay side by side with the wounded
and dying—hon ied, ghastly spectacles : dead
I horses were strewn over the ground by hundreds,
| with thousands of arms, of every concievable
i variety, an I countless blankets, haversacks,
! knapsacks, cartridge— boxes, clothing, and all
the little convenien<*'“s of a soldiers lile. But I
j must leave you to 1.11 ip the picture, in imagina
tion. and close my already’ lengthy letter. 1
i cannot, however, close ’without s tying that 1,
; in common with all our men, I verily believe.
I sustained by an unwavering confidence that the
J Gcd of battles wis with u- to shield us and
J sustain us. that our cause was just, and that we
■ could not be conqureed. Besides, we fought
; bravely and cooly, with the knowledge that
* upon our efforts depended the honor ot our be
| loved homes, the safety of our wives and lami-
■ lies, by whose prayers we were sustained, and
I by whose smiles we were encourvged. Coward
ice or defeat, under such feelings, is i-mposs.ble.
Os the South Carolina Regiment, we saw \V.
j C. Davis, Doling Glover. Payson Ardis, Win.

visit after the battle. Ot the Bth Geo. ilegi
