Extracts of Letters from the Battle Field.
G. B. Lamar, Esq., writing from Rich
mond date of July’’ 25th., and
speaking of the late battle at Manassas
says :
“The enemy thought, up to 4 o’clock
the# had the victory —and so they had;
but the opportune arrival of two fresh
regltnenls turned the battle and gave
us inglorious victory.
On cmr retreat previously our woun
ded fell into their hands. They treated
them kindly, lifting them into the shade
and leaving them with canteens full of
water, and I am credibly informed that
even then they told our men they did
not like to fight them ; they had no cause,
led «vw compelled to do it. Hence (1
think it was) that they Hod so readily
when the re verses occurred.”
“The Lynchburg Hepublican publishes
a letter dated in camp at Manassas,
July 23d, from which we make the fol
lowing extract :
“1 can’t realize myself in “the pomp
and circumstance of war.” But, great
God, what have 1 seen the wounded,
the dead and the dying-. You can pos
sibly imagine my first feelings, though
they were Yankees, when 1 looked in
upon them some shot through the head,
with legs and arms broken, some
through the stomach, and in fact all
over ; and to hear their mournings and
their groupings, and 1 thought “is this
war ?”
“They, (the Yankees) almost to a man,
say if they had known how things were
down here with ns, tl.ey never would
have come. They say if they can get
well, they will never come again unless
lo fight lor ns.
The Horrors of War.
A correspondent of the Daily Times
has tin- following description of the hor
rors ofpvar,
Washington, Monday, July 21, 1861.
To'read of a battle, with its poetry of
heroism, is a very fine thing. All men
applaud the bold fellow, and all women
•throw laurels on the gallant soldier who j
•is ready to throw down his life tor his j
.country's flag. If one sees it, the thing
w far different. I was i.t the defeat of
our forces yesterday near Centerville,
and as 1 witnessed the hot shot and the
terrible shell tearing through the air ;
us I saw the horrible grape and shrap
nel doing its too certain work al! around,
as 1 saw my friends storming heroically
masked batteries, which the terrible in
compettmcc of their leaders did not al
low them to silence owing to insuffi
cient reinforcements being sent in pro,
per time ; when I saw these heroes at
sll a month losing heads, legs and
arms, in thick profusion around me ; 1
when I witnessed the horrible rout
brought about by a masterly think move- !
ment of their picked cavalry and sharp- ,
sh oters, and when I saw our country-!
num unlimber the guns, cut loose the
traces of their horses and flee, leaving
the pieces behind; when 1 saw, too. our
boasted cavalry living in the same mad
haste, with regiment after regiment
pushing after (hem like so many sheep,
throwing for three miles guns, bayonets,
cartridge Loxes and provisions of every
kind away— dragoons riding over infan
try in their (light and the ground a su
lutely covered for three miles, with bod- ,
jes, then 1 realized as on’y those who |
i’au see it. the actual horrors us war.

Incidents of the Battle.
The following items we clip from the
correspondence of our exchanges :
An incident is related of a young Ala
bama boy, named William K. Oakley, a
private in the Lauderdale Rifles, lie is
only seventeen years of age, but good
ly number of inches, a strong desire to
volunteer, and a manly countenance,
enabled him to evade the regulations
and ioin a company. How well he has
done his duty the following recital will
show: During the action, having stray
ed away from his regiment to fight “on
his own hook,” he was taken prisoner
by one of the “Pet Lambs,” tied hand
and foot, and left lying upon the battle
field to be subsequently reclaimed.—
Young Alabama, however, was pos
sessed of too much Anglo-Saxon elas
ticity to occupy his recumbent attitude
in idleness, and setting to -work with a
good pair of jaws he soon gnawed apart
the rope which bound his hands. Then,
with a pocket knife, lie severed the
cords around his feet, and seized a mus
ket from the side of a dead man, he star
ted on his return to his own regiment.
On the way he on-countered another
•‘Pet Lamb,” and 'without further intro
duction ran I im through with his bayo
net, and secured his side arms. Con
tinuing his journey, he came suddenly
upon a Federal Colonel, who was recon
noitering on horseback. Not suppos
ing the young man to be an enemy, the
officer paid no attention to his appioach
until the juvenile hero presented his
musket and demanded his surrender. —
“Who are you?” asked the Colonel.—
“Pm an Alabamian; come down, you are
my prisoner.” Like Capt. Scott’s squir
rel, the officer did come down, and the
young man, mounting the horse, accom
panied him to the headquarters of Gen.
Beauregard, where he was duly deliver
ed up. The General was so pleased
with the account of the adventure that
hepresented him with theofficer’ssword,
and is said to have dubbed him Captain
on the spot. The prisoner was no other
than Col. Corcoran, of the notorious
sixty-nin'h New York regiment.
Gen. E. K. Smith’s Brigade, a portion
of General Johnson’s Winchester forces,
readied Manassas during the battle, and
rushed to the field, a distance of seven
miles, through the broiling sun, at
double quick. As they reached the field
from a double quick, they got fairly to
running, their eyes flashing, the officers
crying out, “On, boys, to the rescue I”
and the men shouting, at the top of
their voices. When Gen. Johnston saw
Smith, he exclaimed : “The Blucher of
the day has come I” They soon arrived
in front of the enemy, and, with a shout
that might have been heard from one
end of the field to the other, they were
launched at the adversary like a thun
derbolt. They delivered but two fires
when the enemy began to give way,
and in a few minutes he was in full re
treat.
The Brigade is composed of one Ten
nessee and one Mississippi Regiment,
and a battalion from Maryland. As
they rushed by me into the fight, I could
but recall, with an appreciation 1 never
felt before, the words of Holy Writ,
“As terrible as an army with banners.”
At almost every step as you passed
across the localities in which the fight
raged fiercest might be heard the feeble
cry for “water,” and in no instance that
1 am aware of was the appeal unheeded.
Our men spared no trouble to afford ro
llick One noble fellow—a South Caro
linian by the way—.just as I entered the
field, had a New York Zouave in his
arms, carrying him to a neighboring
brook, where among the thicket he
found a comparatively comfortable abid'
ing place timing the night. Another
had taken off his coat and made with it
a pillow; and a third, whom I saw, hud
torn up a part of his shirt with which
he was binding up the head of a woun
ded Yankee.
While on a visit yesterday to the
!S< venth Regimen* I had the satisfac
-1 tion to examine their flag. It has four
teen bullet holes in it, and the flag staff
was struck in four places. After <’ol.
I Bartow's fall, Lieut. Paxton of Virgin
ia asked leave, the color-bearer being
wounded, to carry the flag. His request
was granted, and he ami \V. L. Not
man, one of the color guards, of DeKalb
! County, were the first to plant it upon
, the captured battery Eli W. Hoyle of
; the Atlanta Confederate Volunteers was
i the first to mount the battery.
i Ely, the Republican Congressmen,
I who is in duraaee vile, was visited a
few days ag'o by Messrs. Keitt, Bocock
j ami Pryor, who informed him that they
called on a errand of mercy, and were
desirous of doing something to better
his condition provided it did mu con
flict with the military regulations. It
is related that the earnestness of these
gentlemen in their proposal, and their
generous forgetfulness of old party
lines, which always distinguishes the
true Southern gentlemen, affected the
prisoner powerfully, and that shedding
, tears he thing his arms around them
and said that “he had often heard of
Southern chivalry, but he was now able
to appreciate it hilly.’’

From the Savannah Republican,
Tile Fourth Georgia Brigade—Something
the People ought to Know.
In a late issue of the Atlanta Intelli
gencer, Governor Brown’s special organ,
wo find the following :
The Fourth Brigade. —We arc in
formed ’haf Governor Brown has ten
dered this fine body of troops, now un
der the command of Gen. Phillips, to
the President, fully armed and equipped,
and that the Brigade will be sent to the
seat of war as soon as the President
will accept and order it. We think the
President should do so at once. If
there is any delay in this matter, it will
not be Gov. Brown’s fault.
The above refers to the brigade that
lias been in camp at a place known as
“Big Shanty,” six miles from Marietta,
for the last two or three months, accor
ding to our recollection, 'flic brigade
are there yet, and the Intelligencer flat
ly tells its readers that the delay in its
movement to the seat of war is not
“Governor Brown’s fault.”
We happen to know something of the
extraordinary and reprehensible rea
sons that have kept this gallant body
of 2,500 Georgians out of i lie public ser
vice, in a time of pressing emergency
and when the interests of the Confed
eracy were absolutely suffering for want
of troops, and we intend that the people
shall also know it. We give facts and
defy their contradiction ; by them let
all parties to this disreputable conduct
be judged. I
The Phillips brigade has been teiylcr
cd to the Government, by Gov. Brown,
after a fashion, but with certain condi
tions annexed, which made its accep
tance by the President impossible, with
out a surrender of his official duty to the
hands of others, a violation of the law,
and in his judgment, serious detriment
to the public service Why did the In
telligencer withhold this fact from the
picture ? Why did it seek to blind its
readers to the truth, that the only rea
son why this brigade has not been ac
cepted is that the President refused an
application of Gov. Brown, to bind him
self to retain his (Gov. B’s) appointee,
a mere civilian without military skill or
experience, in command of the body :
and tor no other ';-. aS on ? And yet this,
honest men of Georgian’s the truth, and
we challenge its denial.
The President was anxious to obtain
the brigade for service in Western Vir
ginia, where Garnett’s command met
with a recent disaster for want of sup
port—and had these Georgians been
there, the Laurel Hill retreat would nev
er have occurcd. He wrote to Gover
nor Brown urging that they be sent on
the men and arms ; Gov. Brown’s re
ply was : yes, if you will take the q//i
--cers whom 1 have appointed. The"TTcsl
- rejoiiu'd that he was not author
ized, under the law to receive brigades
—only companies, battalions and regi
ments. Gov. Brown responds : 1 know
that, but promise to appoint the men to
the brig’ade (hat 1 have already appoin
ted, and you shall have it. Such was
substantially the correspondence.
This, of course, the President refused
to do, not wishing to abdicate the ap
pointing power in favor of Governor
Brown, and not feeling disposed to be
dictated to, especially in a matter of
constitutional duty.
in a few words : he s ugh' to usurp
the powers of President Davis by for
cing upon him appointments of his own,
to offices where the law vests the ap
pointing power exclusively in (he Presi
dent.
Here are the facts, stated on the very
best authority, and now let the reader
say who is at fault, Gov Brown or the
War Dep •rtineiu, upon which his news
paper organ would saddle the responsij
bilily.
In what a light does such conduct
hold up the Empire State to the gaze of
the world ’ W hen such motives as par
tizan friendship and personal assump
tion are to regulate an army created to
fight for Southern independence, well
may we dcspairof the Republic, or give
up all hope of an honorable agency in
it a establishment.

A CHANCE FOR GLORY OR
INFAMY.
The Yankee Government have now
an opportunity of exhibiting that rare
quality of which they have boasted much
and which is called “pluck.” lhe sen
sation with which they arc about to wit
ness the Confederate flag floating from
the heights opposite Washington city,
can be more easily imagined than de
scribed. They have long ago taken the
precaution to box up the archives of
the Government, and to send theni to
some secure spot nearer to the North
Foie. It is believed by Weli informed
men that the public buildings of \\ ash
ington city are all mined, ready to be
reduced to a heap of ruins on the ap
proach of die Confederate army. The
fate of Balbec has been prepared for the
marble ci'y of the New World by the
very men who have been calling upon
soldiery to “protect the
National Capitol” as a sacred duty. The
fortunes of war promise soon to place
that Capitol in the hands of the South.
Its splendid mansions, its marble tem
ples and gilded edifices will then be
safer from harm, much safer from pol
lution, than they were while in the hands
of the unkept and unwashed brutes who
have lately had their quarters in their
halls and corridors ; but they are to be
blown up at the approach of our sol
diers, by the very men who have been
preaching the duty of protecting them
to their minions.
The battle of Stone Bridge was a great
event as great as any that ever happen
ed from the collision of r.rmies. But
it is to be succeded by a political event
even more important. \\ c are now to
test the nerves of the President of the
Scotch cap and grey coat, and of the
Cabinet who were to make a breakfast
of the South, and a dinner of England
and France. We are now to try the
pluck of Senators wdio have been using
such great words in debate, and placing
such valiant votes upon the records of
Congress for three weeks past. Henry
Wilson, the cobbler of Nat'.c who was
diss ippointed of his champagne at Cen
terville, is to show whether he will
make a stand at the capital for his bud
get of war bills, pr cO’Hiniie his fight
in the direction of his native village of
shoes. Hickman is to prove themetai
of which he is made, and to show wheth
er he is made, and to show whether he
is still of opinion that eighteen millions
of Yankee are a march for eight millions
of Southern people.
In short, there is to be the best prac
tical test ever tried of the pluck of a
boastful and vain glorious government.
The Senate of Rome sat composed and
unaffrighted while the Northern barba
rians were rushing into the city, and
received their death with a dignity
which was only equalled by their fear
less heroism. Will the Yankee Con
■ gross and Government copy their ex
ample? With cannon balls whizzing
1 over their city, and shells bursting un
der their feet, will they retain their
j posts, sharing thefateof the Capital wito
the heroism of the old Romans, or will
J they scamper ingloriously away to dis
tant places of security? The next few
days arc to bring out the most interes
ting developments on this subject. It
is certain that a little personal heroism
on the.part of the men conducting the
- ’ government would go tar towards re
trieving' the fortune that has befallen
them. The capture or the martrydom
of these men would rc-cxcite the war
• spirit of their people, and produce a
rally around the Star-Spangled Banner
which would save the honor of the
North, if it did not restore the entirety
• of the l’nion. The best chance for glo<
ry ever presented to men in conspicm
! ous and responsible position, is now
offered the government at Washington.
If they will stand their ground, and
share the fate of the Capitol, they will
make a fame which will be honored in
• I history, and excite a temper at the
1 I North that may yet save its honor and
i I retrieve its military fortunes. But this
‘ ■ roZe is attended with imminent person
i al bravery in the execution of it which
he of the Scotch cap and his minions
are believed to be strangers to.
On the contrary, if the Lincoln Gov
’ i ernment flee the Capi 01, exploding their
mines ami leaving it in ruins, they
will bring upon themselves an igno
‘ ! my, and upon their Government and iA
cause a reproach which will decide the
(opinions of the world upon this contest,
I and tei initiate the strife of sections. —
The abandonment of the Capital will in
fact be an abondonment of war, and a
i commission of imp >tency and imcompci
tency which will discredit the Northern
cause not only through history, but
.! among th- Northern people themselves.
lhe decision of t!ie Washington Gov
: ernment upon the question of abandon
! ing or rem titling in the city, will be the I
most important political event in its 1
i consequences of modern times.
The Way to Raise the Blockade. — G. I
B. Lamar, Esq., conclu les a letter from
Richmond about our victory, with the '
following very patriotic and truthfuf
• views.
“I a n sure if Congress will cut off
Jail imliiect means of Europe getting!
cotton and tobacco from us, ex- cpt by
raising die bl ckade, and then offer free '
tr.ide and no duties on goods, that the
I blockade will be raised by Fiance and
England by the Ist of October, or very
soon th reaftcr. I hope they will levy
a t tx to the amount oi $25.000,0U 1 ); pay
their tro- ps promptly: and keep up our
pi *gr ss till winter, with its sufferings,
compels our fanatical enemies to l>t us
go in peace.”

Proclamation.
AVhercas, one Abraham Lincoln, Boss
of all Abolilidndorn, is organizing an
army of fifty millions of men, to drink
all the water out of Pensacola Bay, to
dig up Santa Rosa Island and remove
the same, to swallow Pensacola, the
Navy Yard and other valuable appute
nances, to catch and put in huge iron
cages all Southern men, to tote off be
yond Mason and Dixon’s line, the villa
ges of Charleston, Savannah, Mobile,
Montgomery and New Orleans ; to
change the course of the Mississippi and
not permit it longer to run through a
Southern State ; and whereas the sub
jects of the said Lincoln have placed at
his disposal nine hundred thousand bill
ions of dollars the better to enable him
to effect his diabolical and inhuman pur
poses.
Now therefore I, Zcdekiah Muggins,
in the name and behalf of the universal
world issue this my proclamation, com
manding the good and loyal people of
Europe, Asia and Africa of North an 1
South America, of Australia and the
Sandwich Islands, to hold themselves in
readiness to prevent the terrible catas
trophe threatened by the said Abraham;
and I hereby warn him and the power
ful combination ot which he is at the
head, that lam unwilling' for them to
do these things, and if they do not wi h
in twenty days lay down their arms,
disperse, and quit it 1 shall get after
them with the sharpest kind of a stick,
and ‘somebody will be hurt.’
I also declare all the oceans, seas,
bays, estuaries, rivers, creeks and other
water courses which may be used by
said combination for purposes of navi
gation, in a state of perpetual blockade,
and all men, animals, reptiles, fish or
insects disregarding ibis my blockade,
shall incur the penalty of my severest
displeasure.
