Letter from Sargent McPherson, of the Davis Infantry, to hie Brother A- Mc Pherson, Esq. Rioanonu, July 20. Dear Brother t Having a fin* opportunity to writ* you a foliar, 1 hasten to make ua* of U. As you sn, I am in Richmond—came down yesterday, with on* of my comrades, from Mananas, (Alonso Bnscd-I suppose you kosw him,) who was wounded in the footbyagrape shot. I am also slightly wounded in the head, by a Minnie rifle ball. It was only a “ tip," but th* tip went lo the skull, but without any fractur*. I did not think it went to the bone, until about aa hour ago, with two glasses, I could, with a pair of scissors, probe to the bon* without pain. The particulars of tbs battle you will find in tb* Richmond papers, fuller than I can give them ; but I will say that it was a terri bis, bloody battle, nod I was in it. 1 have seen the horrors of war, in all its blood and terror. My curiosity is satisfied; but I am a* anxious to sgaio brave its perils lo defend our oountry and repel her invaders. A man who has never witnessed the carnage of n battle field, oau form no idea of its terror aad grandeur. It is true, that during ih* in tense cxcitemebi of the conflict, the eight of a man being shot dowu by your side, or an- other mangled by a bomb, does not affect you; but, after all is over, and you walk over the field of strife, you have time to consider and reflect on tbs horrid scenes around y.u—bare a man, perhaps your friend, with a bullet through his heart, cold in death, others lorn and mangled—some dead, some dying, others wounded beyond hop* of recovery—mutilated bodies and parts of bodits—it is horrid to contemplate, especially when you remember that, amid all Ihl*. carnage, you was one of th* actors, and only lbs smallest partition of bon* was between yon and death. Th* Yankees were so badly whipped that they did not ask permission to bury tbeir dead, nor tak* charge of their wounded. We did *o, but many of them were in a deplora ble condition before we could render any as- sislauce. a « « Suob scenes wer* at first was sickening, but they were so numerous that we soon got " used to it ’’ It was my full intention, before I ever knew what a battle was, to take charge of any of my particular frieods who should get hurt and spared. I sxpeoled the same from them. Sneed, I am sure, would have spent all be had and his lime for me, bad there been occasion I shall do for him all in my power. I have brought blin hers, and hav* him in one of tb* most noble mansions I ever was in. Us baa a room to himself, fitted up in th* most mag- nifioeut styl*. We are non in the care of Mr. Thomas W. Dudley, aergeaot of the city of Richmond, who has offered to take charge ef ua both until there should not b* the least sign of a wound on ua, and would b* hippy to tak* charge of as many more aa his house would hold, withont fee or reward, except th* plsslurt of serving th* protectors of his coun try. Tbs good lady says w* shall be con-id •red as her children as long as we are under her care. I have been pleased with the kindness and hospitality shown soldiers ail through Virgin ia, who se*m to vie with each other in doing ail they can for us, except at Harper's Ferry, where I believe the people would have betray ed us, if they oould. I suppose you hav* heard of the death of John A. Puckett. There never was a braver an on a battle field then he, or on* with a kinder heart in the camp lie was shot dead whil* shorn iug aad sacoursglng th* boys, who followed him as they would a fath*r. His death is much lamented by th* whol* compa ny. Mr. Bagwell was also killed on lb* field. Of th* Davis Infantry, two war* killed, and steven wounded.

W*lay p«rtioBS*f them before cor readers. Th* first is from Jaa. N. Baa*, a member of tb* Now- nan Guards—Capt. Ilanvsy. Th* latter is da ted at Monl«r*y, 10 July. It wa* written to hi* father and mother, and not Intended for pub lication. After describing th* fight at Laurel Hill aad tb* retrial fr*m there towards B*v*riy in th* night, learning that that place was occupied by Ik* enemy, *h*n within four mile* of it, and taming back in a northerly course lo I •res* th* Allcgbani** into Hardy county, lbs writer stats* that they reached Tucker coun ty and encamped about 11 o’clook Friday night, th* 11th July. The next morning, be says “Th* min whtoh had be*n falling almtsll incessantly slno* w* left Laurel Hill, now poured down in torrent* and soaked to tbel skin, fatigued of msrehing, aad weak of bun gar, w* left our camp fires and moved on our journey. Th* roads w*r* so vary bad that car train of wagon*, hsavily Icadsd as they were th* day previous, oould not get along, and fearing test th* army should pursue us, th* tents and other baggage wer* thrown off to lighten the loads. We now proceeded on our journey and soon reached the Cheat River,I about two miles Irom estop. There our Reg imsnt (Col. Ramsey's) which bad covered the] rear Ibe previous day, but which had got ahead of tb* wagons after nigbt, having ford ad the steam, waited till the train, together] with tbs remainder of the army, bad passed them. This oonsumed about two hours of] lime Here it is proper for me lo state that the Virginians had.lhe utmost confidence in the skill and bravery of the G*jrgisns, for when ever there was any danger, there tbcGeorgiansl were placed, and as sn attack in the rear was anticipated that day, w* were placed there to meet it. The whole force except ours having passed, th* advance portion, in con sequence pf narrowness of th* road, being at least four miles ahead, our oolunin was ready] to prooeed, when our scouts reported that a] company of the enemy were about half of a mile behind us, and were tormenting our block ading parly by shooting at them'Irom behind trees at "long taw." Immediately one com pany from our Regiment was stretched to lie] in ambush for them, and the main body prow needed on their way. But we had not gone] more than one fourth of a mile, having been] hindered by the wagons * half an hoar, when the enemy were in sight. By this time wo had reached another ford of the Cheat riv er, it making thete a horse shoe-bend, when seven of our companies wore stationed on the sams side of the river with the enemy, at the fool or a Mountain about two hundred yards from the road white the remaining three com panies crossed the river—two stationing them Belres above and one below the ford and await ed the arrival of th* loo. But it ssems that tb* enemy 11 entiled a rat " end concluded not to pass ourseven companies, but instead of com ing across this bend as we had done,they follow ed th* conn* of the river and thus came up on the three companies stationed on the oppo site aid* of th* stream without approaching within range of th* guns of the seven compen sates on the same side with them. Now the battl* commenced, Ibe enemy pouring into our ,midst a volley of musketry of at least two thousand shots together with a shower of grap* shot. Our brave boys stood the storm of bullets without flinching, and quickly re turned the fire, taking as deliberate aim as if they were shooting squirrels. Th* combat raged, balls hissed past ns aa thick us kail but without effecting any damsgs or exciting any.fear in the hearts of Georgia's brave son*. Volley after volley was fired till the enemy was almost all around us, when Col. Ramsey seeing that the Virginians would not com* to our rescue, they being three or four mites in |sdvancs, and not being willing to sacrifice bis men byjoonttndingjagalnet afore* thirty tim«s our number, ordered a retreat. (The command was reluctantly obeyed by the three compan ies that were not lh*n cut off. This fight ended vboVlli o’clock,by which time our forces ware 6 mites in advene* of us. Wc overtook Col Tol liver’s Regiment at another ford of th* sum* stream, about 1 o’elook, where w* caw ihatjii wa* o*eea*arylhat we should leav* a portion of our wagons which In consequence of bad slat* •f tb* road oould not get along.
