A few word* to those who write articles which they wish to appear in our columns: If you write anything of local interest only, let it be rcrv xAorf ; we eannot spare the space in our paper and pay our printers for sotting up a long article, when we know that only a few of our readers will take any interest in it. When you write anything of general inter est, m»<k<- it .-■>■ short us possible. Strike out all amplifications. Don’t hang on and hang on, and spin :t out and spin it out. but gather up your burning thoughts into a focus, and give the strong points in a few words. Don’t send us a long article. If you are going to become offended, if we decline to publish your communication, don’t send it to us. We don’t want to offend you, and we had rather take the chances of miss ing a good article than of giving offense. Don’t ask us to return your communication if it is rejected. Save the live cent piece you would enclose for us to prepay postage on re turning it. If you have any doubt about our publishing it, keep a copy. We positively have not time to return articles we decline to publish. We receive a large number of attempts at poetry. Nine-tenths of these we decline.— Very few persons who attempt to write poetry can be convinced that their productions are sorry. Let all your tirst attempts at poetry be submitted to some one of well-known scholarship and literary attainments, before offering them to the press. ts - -I - - Red Mark Again.

Contributions to the Georgia Hospital. We have before us two letters from the Sec retary of the Georgia Relief and Hospital As sociation, addressed to Gen. J. 11. Rice, one of the Committee in this city to receive and for ward contributions, acknowledging the receipt of a well-assorted box of Medicines, the con tribution of Dr. Massey and E. E. Rawson, Esq.; and a lot of sundry valuable articles contributed by Mrs. Dr. Massey. Gen. E. Kirby Smith. This distinguished soldier was desperately wounded at Manassas on the 21st of July, while gallantly leading his command into bat tle. He was conveyed to Lynchburg, Virgin ia, where he remained till he had sufficiently recovered to travel. He was then united in wedlock to Miss Seddon, of Lynchburg, and made a visit to his home in St. Augustine, Fla. After remaining there a short time, till he had sufficiently recovered to be able to enter upon his duties again, he returnod to Richmond.— While he was on his way there, an-order from the War Department was sent to him at St. Augustine, assigning him to the command of the Confederate forces in his State, to fill the vacancy occasioned by the recent death of Gen. Grayson, of which he knew nothing till he reached Richmond. He is now assigned to his former command in the Army of the Po tomac. The News.

JfBYUHEGnsmg FOR THE - SOUTHERN CONFEDERACY.” (Special IDispatch to the Knoxville Register.] Lynchhchu, Oct IS.—There was a fight yes terday near Romney. Hampshire county, be tween four hundred of the Hessians and a body of our militia, who were ambuscaded. — The enemy left fifty or sixty killed and a large number wounded, and fifteen taken prisoners; our loss oi.e killed and two slightly wounded. From Green Brier River we learn that the enemy have driven in our pickets, and with about two thousand men are moving down the river with supposed intention of making an attack on the rear of our forces. A battle has doubtless been fought in that locality. Richmond, Oct. 23.—Several gentlemen who were engaged in, and were witnesses of, the battle near Leesburg.on Monday last, say that the rout and panic of the Federalists exceed ed that of Manassas Plains. When the Fed eral is s took to the river, their heads appeared to be as thick as a large swarm of blackbirds. They say it is impossible to describe the scene, or to estimate the number of the drowned. — Hundreds of the enemy were shot while strug gling and swimming in the water. Many of them left their clothing of all kind behind them ; and many of them drowned each oth er in their efforts to escape. Most of our wounded will be brought here to-morrow; and nearly all of the prisoners are expected to arrive here to-day or to-mor row. Richmond, Oct. 24.—Five hundred and twen ty-five prisoners arrived here this morning from the Leesburg battle on Monday. Among them are Cols. W. R Lee of the 20th Massa chusetts, Cogswell, of the 12th New York; Maj. Revere, 12th Massachusetts; Adjutant Pearson, and Assistant Surgeon Revere, both of the 20th Mass. ; six Captains, eleven Lieu tenants from the New York, Massachusetts and California regiments. A considerable number more prisoners are to bs brought to morrow. Some reports are, that over 1,000 were taken. The lowest reports are 650. No reliable account has been received of the killed and wounded of the Confederates. Washington dispatches to the Northern press up to the 17th instant, say that the Pawnee was struck by six shots from the batteries on the Potomac, on the 16th- Northern telegrams report a great Federal victory near Harper’s Ferry over Col. Turner Ashly ; also, that the Confederate States desire England and France to extend their protection over them, for a limited time. Seward's letter to the Governors of t he North ern States has caused a decline in stocks. The New York Herald warmly approves of the recommendations of the letter. LATER. Further details from Leesburg state that the fight was ierriblo on both sides The federate were well sustained by heavy forces. They wer-a routed by the Confederates, three times, at the point of the bayonet, and were reinfor ced each time. Tfie Bth Virginia charged and captured a brass battery and put the enemy to flight. The federate made a desperate stand at the river, but were slaughtered there till, panic stricken, they attempted to cross, and hun dreds were drowned. The battle field was thick with federate kill ed and wounded. Col. Burt, of the Sth Mississippi, was badly wounded. The Confederate troops fought under great disadvantages. They endured a heavy march Sunday on two meals, slept under arms, in the open air, Sunday night, had only breakfast Monday, and fought all day without any re freshment or reinforcements. Oue hundred and sixty more prisoners from Leesburg reached here this afternoon. Passengers report that Leesburg is now in possession of 20,000 Federate. The Confeder ates retired under orders to evacuate Leesburg, if the Federate appeared in large force. Previous to the battle on Monday, it is un derstood that a similar order was issued, but Evans fought the battle notwithstanding. The Confederatejjloss is not over 200 killed, wounded, and missing. The federal loss in killed, wounded, prisoners and missing, is a bout 2,000. Several hundred prisoners more are expected to-morrow. Numerous incidents are related of the gal lant deeds performed by our soldiers. Men never fought more with daring chivalry. LATER. No official information of the occupation of Leesburg by the Federate has been received ; and a gentleman who left there at 4 o’clock, P. M., Wednesday, denies the statement; and yet, in official circles, it is regarded as very probable, though it may not yet be accom plished-nothing from other camps. Norfolk, Oct. 23.—Heavy, rapid and long continued firing was heard below last evening. The cause has not transpired. The Details Os the Confederate loss at Leesburg come very slowly. We fear it was very heavy.— Three regiments against that host was such terrible odds as no soldiers, save Southern volunteers, could contend against. —♦ ♦ It is said that Secretary Cameron at the commencement of the battle of Bull Run, im» plored the 4th Pensylvania Regiment to “strike for their homes,” and they did so at the rate of ten miles an hour COAL!
