Editorial Correspondence.
. Bivouac ok Stfn Ga. Rec.,
Sundav. August 24, 1802.
Dear Courier: Yesterday our Brig-
ado passed through ono nf tho severest
ordeals to which it is possible to subjeot
oven tlio best of troops—that of being
under a-heavy, cannonade, when they
could do nothing but grin and. bear it-
At eight o’cloolf'A. M;, it wo» order
ed that one regimont of Gen. Evans’
with ono* of Col. Anderson’s should
cliorgo a Federal battery on the South
bank.of the ri.or, at Rappahannock
Station, and be supported by the bal
ance of Col. Anderson's Brigade., We
had already been marched to within
about a mile of this battery, and drawn
up in lino of battle.
At tho command the Brigade moved
forward as silently as possiblo. When
within about 800 yards of the battery to
be charged,' U’o calcic to a bGautiful opou
field, with’ no obstruction whatever
except a cedar wicker work fence,, run
liing across the fiold at right angles
with eoiu'so, a»<d about midway between
us and tlio battery. The ground, sliglit'
iy inclined towards ,lio battery, teemed
foaifully smootli, and.the yawning can
non stared our men full in tho faco,
On moved tlio Brigade in almost per
feet line and in good order. Besides
the battery to bo charged, throo others
yards beyond the 8th, when the ene
mies fire became so intolerable tlioy
turned back. About fifty, however, re
mained bohind somo breast works tlio
enemy had thrown up there the night
before. Seven of their men were kill
cd nnd twenty wounded.
The constant expectation was that
the enemy would advance their infan
try nnd try to drivo us back ; but this
they did not do, and we lay five hours
under the severest kind of cannonade.
When wo had been there two hours
one of our regiments came up to the
hill in front of us, but could not Bland
the fire and left immediately. Not ono
of our Brigade fired a gun. The 8th
and 1st Rcgimcu ts were not as much
exposed, but the hill behind which
they were,. seemed to ho nn object of
special apprehension by tlio enemy,
and it received largely more than its
share of attention.
The Brigade finally being in a posi
tion where it could do nothing, was
ordered to move off by regimen ts, seek
ing ns safe a passage out of range of
the enemy’s cannon as possiblo. The
8th was not fired into as wo moved off,
but tlio 7th 9th uud 11th were. So far
as ascertained tho casualties in the 8;h
were twenty-seven wounded—there are
four mortally it is feared. There were
only three wounded in all the Rome
companies.- Lieut. Koucbe, a flight
bruise on the forehead j Bean, cf the
Floyd Infantry, very slightly, and
Quarles, of tho Miller Rifles severely
in tire arm, whioli was so badly shatter
ed that it is feared lie may die. The
1st Georgia hud throe killed and twen
ty-one wounded; tha7tli had eight
wounded, ono mortally; in the 11th
thoro were two killed and twenty-seven
wounded.
The Brigade moved back about threo
o’clock P.*M,. and after halting a while
inarched to the same bivouac where
they stayed tlie night before. Scon
Yesterday we subsisted on fresh bref
and green corn without salt. This
morning rations have been issued. If
Jackson comes down on the other side,
our forces will probably attempt to
forae A crossing hero. The want of
rations will forco us forward or back
toon. Tho country is exhausted, and
tho cars only run to Orange C. II.

Profoundly sonsible of our depend
ence upon tho Supreme Ruler of the
Universe for every blessing of life, and
recognizing our indebtedness to HirA
as a community, for the exomption Wo
have enjoyed from tlio prescnco of a
cruel und merciless foo, and for tho se
curity, honor and peace of our families,
and as a portion of the people of tlie
Con federate States, for tho multiplied
evidences of the Divine approval and
aid in our national struggle, in tho
long scries of brdlinnt nnd signal victo
ries, which llo lias vouchsafed to bur
arms. We'sought earnestly nnd hum
bly, in our distress these blessings,
should wo not in liko spirit gratefully
acknowledge His merciful answer lo
•ur petitions. Believing such to be
the sentiments of this community, nnd
that all may Unite in a .common ex
pression of gratitude-— .
I, Tuomas J. Word, Mayor of tho City
Roma, do issue this, my proclamation,
setting apart Thursday tlio 11th inst.,
to be observed by tlie citizens in re
turning thanks to Almighty God foi-Miis
mercies nnd blessings to this communi
ty, and for the,coiitinned manifestations
of His favor and blessings to our Gov
ernment und urmy, and in humble and
faithful supplication, for a continuance
of llis goodness and power in support
of our cause, and for a speedy return
of peace, prosperity and indepen
dence to our now distracted and suffer
ing country.
Aud to this end I would request that
all socuiur employments be suspended
on that day, anJ Hint the people unit#
in Mich religious exercises as may bo,
held by the Reverend Clergymen «f
tlie oily; whom I would most respoct-
fdilly invito to open their usual places of
Divine Worship, and to conduct servi
ces appropriate to tho occasion.
