From the Richmond (Va.,) Dispatch, July 29 The Eigth Georgia Regiment in the Battle* at Stone Bridge. The following graphic description of scenes on tlie battle field and the gal lant conduct of the Eighth Georgia Re giment was written for the “Dispatch,” by a gentleman who participated in the tierce conflict of the 21st July: EIGHTH GEORGIA REGIMENT. On Thursday, the 18th inst., about 2 P. M., this Regiment left W inchester for Manassas, under command of Lieu tenant Colonel Montgomery Gardner. Col. Bartow had been for some weeks acting Brigade!’ General of a Brigade, consisiing of the 7th, Sth 9th and J Ith Georgia Regiments, and a battalion of Kentuckians. 1 lie'Sth marched 27 miles over the mountains, fording the Shenandoah, to Piedmont on the Alanassas Gap Rail road, arriving'th ro about 12 M., Fri day. '.i he march was fatiguing in the extreme. Alter a delay of a few hours they left for Manassas on car, and a slow, tedious ride brought them to this point late Saturday morning-. They three and a half miles to camp in the woods, without tents, and without food. Early next morning they were ordered to the fight, where they arrived after a circuitous, wearisome, and at times double-quick tramp of between ten and twelve miles. Breathless, tired, faint, au-.l footsore, the gallant fellows were eager ior the fray- They were first ordered to support Pendle on’s 'Virginia Battery, which they did amid a furious storm of grape from the enemy’s Inactive as they stood cool and unfhirried. They were finally oidered to charge Sherman’s Buttery. To do this it was necessary to cross an intervening hol low covered by the enemy’s fire and establish themselves in a thicket flank ing the enemy’s battery. They charg ed in a manner that elicited the praise of Gen. Johnston. Gaining the thicket they opened up on the enemy, 'i he history oi war .arc probably affords no instance of more desperale figlning than took place now. From three sides a fierce, concentrated murderous, uncesing volley poured in upon this devoted and heroic “six hun dred Georgians. The enemy appeared upon the hill by the thousands. Between six and ton regiments were visible. It was a hell ot a bullet-rain in that fata! grove. —• 1 he ianks were cutdown as grain by a scythe. W hole platoons melted away as it by magic. Cool, unflinching, and stubborn, c icli man fought with gallan try, ami stern determination to win or die. Not one faltered. Col Bartow’s horse w-is shot under him.

Some of them took the musk ts of the dead, and began cooly tiring at the en emy. It was an appaling hour, 'i he shot whittl'd and tore through trees and bones. Ihe g’round became literally paved wiih the fallen. Yet tlm rem u tnt stood composad ami umpmiriting carefully 1 lading, steadily aiming, un i-rin I' in La id thua quio'ly 1 > >king ta s< e the I'ffect of th( ir sho's.

Their own friends taking them for the enemy, poured a fatal fire upon the multilatcd ranks. At length they withdrew from the fight. 'Their filial rally was with some sixty men of the six hundred they took in. Bu’aklava tells no more heroic tale than this: “Into the valley of death marched the six hundred.” As they retired they passed General Beauregard. He drew aside, fronted, raised his hat, and said: “I salute the Sth Georgia with my hat off.” Os all the companies of the regiment, tlie Oglethope Light infantry suffered most. 'They were on the extreme right nearest the enemy, and thus were more exposed. Composed of the first young gentlemen of Savannah, this terrible loss will throw a gloom over their whole city. An organization of five or six y r ears .standing, they wore the favorite corps of Savannah. Col. Bartow had long been captain, and was idolized by them while he had a band of sons in them— It is suposed that his deep grief at the mutilation of his boys caused him to ex pose his life- more recklessly than was necessary. He wished to die with thorn it he could not take them back home. they fought with heroic desperation. All young, all unrnairicd, all gentle men, there was not one of the killed v. ho tv as not an ornament to his com munity and freighted with brilliant promise. In sending them to Virginia, Savan nah sent her best to represent her, and their loss proves how well that city was represented upon a field whore ah were brave. This company was the first one to of fer its services to President Davis un der the Confederate act authorizing him to receive independent companies, and the honor of being the first receiv ed. 1 hoy left home in disobedience to the orders of their Governor, and brought away their arms in defiance of bis authority, so eager were they to go where our country needed her best sol diers. 'they were one of the two compan ies that took Fort Pulaski. When there was a riot expected in Savannah, early in the year they were called out to quell it, with another corps. '1 heir whole history is one of heroism. First to seek peril, they have proved in their sad fate how nobly they can on dure it. They will inevitably make their mark dining the continuance of this holy war, I’hey have enlisted lor the whole war. and not one will turn back who can go forward, until it is ended, or they arc completely annihilated. After the gallant Sth had retired with but a fragment, Col. Bartow, by Gcn< Beaurcgaid’s order, brought up the 7ih Georgia Begimcnt, exclaiming, in reply to Col. Gartrell, of the 7th, who asked him where they should go—“ Give me. your flag, and ( will tell yon.” Leading them to their stand amid a terrific lire, he posted the regiment front ing the enemy, and exclaimed in tlmsc eloquent tones so full of high feeling that his friends ever expected from him: “Gen. Beauregard says you must hold this position, and, Georgians, 1 appeal to yon to hold it.” Regardless of life, gal antry riding amid the hottest fire, cheering the men, inspiring them with his fervent courage, he was shot in the heart, and fell from his horse. 'Lhey picked hijn up. With both hands clasped over his breast, ho raised i.is head, and with a God-like ef fort, liis eye glittered in iis last gleam with a blazing light, he said, with a last heroic Hash of his lofty spirit, “They have killed me, but boys, never give up the field,” —emphasizing the “never” in b s j ( culiar, and Stirling manner, that all who know him, will so feelingly re call. Thus perished as noble a soul as ever breathed. He will long live in rernern brance. He met the fate he most wished the nmrtyred patriots grave, lie was a pure patriot, an aide statesman, a brilliant lawyer, a chivalric soldier, a spotlis-; gentleman. Ilis imperious sc a n of littleness was one of his leading r'l.iLic!' i isti -s. Ilis lofty patriotism will consign his name to an immortal page in this country’s history.
