The following account of tlie death of tliis brave man is%opied from the Xew Orleans correspondent of tho X. Y. Times, the wri ter of which says, lie received the statement from Bishop Polk’s Inspector General : * It seems that Gens. Joe Johnston, Polk and Hardee, accompanied by Gen. Jackson, oftho cavalry, and an escort of staft-officcrs, had ridden out iu front ol Hates’ lino to ex amine a position, thought to he snitablc for the ’Washington Artillery. The horses were made fast at the foot of the hill, and the-party ascended to the crown. Here they .were the initials to an “abattis,” with several eminisures, rendering the plheo very much exposed. Onr own guns were less than eight hundred yards in front. There lmd been little desultory firing during lin early hours oftlie day, but tliis had ceased some tinfti before the group of officers began their recqiinyivance. This was prolonged to a much greater extent than usual, and glided into n general and animated conver sation, all oftlie officers being gathered into a knot and using their hands and glasses with a freedom bespeaking rank and inter est, The gunners upon onr side could i«ut fail to see them plhinlv, and while they were being observed, deliberately returned jhe observation, with full time for catcula- djiistiiicnt. The party seemed to ir exposed situation, although e ennooneers who had been at work upon the little tier of breastworks, pointed out to them the accuracy of our shots.' Presently a spherical case shell was discharged from our battery, and exploded directly above the beads of Gens. Johnston, Polk, Hardee and Jackson, all of whom fell to the ground to avoid the concussion or fragments. It was then proposed to divide, mill the different officer* separated to sniff courses as'were at hand. Gen. Polk select ed a very secure shelter; but,becomingim- patiidA and anxious to see the range of lire more accurately, be stepped out upon the brow and was intently gazing out across tlie country—his arms folded and his k*lt side presented—when a thrfe-iuch round shot from a steel rifle (aumou struck the elbow, eniririiig both arms, and pnssi'jg through the heart, a portion of the cli£8| and stom ach, nud out and on its inuriVnms course.— Leonidas Polk fell lifeless and mangled to the ground.
