wnYL b , e [° re ,u ® force under Gen- Crawford
was seat forward to give them battle, and no
sooner i.ad we arrived here than our outposts
were fired upon by their pickets. Skirmishing
was kept up all the forenoon, and the enemy
heid completely in check • but it was not an.
Dt 8 o clock ?. M that the fight assumed the
dignity of a battle. At that hour the rebels
opened their artillery upon Gen. Crawford
from the wood to the right of the read about
one mile
The cannonading continued cn both sides
wben ® en Ranks appeared upon
the field with wen. Augur s division and the
remainder of Gen. Williams’ division. Gen.
Crawford’s force was thrown to the right, with
the exception of the artillery, for the purpose
of making a movement upon the enemy’s flank
—the most important movement of the day —
The loth Maine was then moved forward to
the support of the centre, and the remainder
of the brigade formed, as stated, cn the right,
wnh the addition of tho Wisconsin and an
effort w&: made to drive the enemy from their
cover in the woods.
Dating all this time the firing on both aides
was teninc. and the men were falling by the
score The line advanced steadily, with the
exception of the 2d Wisconsin, tinder a galling
fire, and drove the rebels back. The Wiscon
sin regiment fled at the first fire, and it was
with great difficulty and great personal risk
that the General succeeded in getting them iu-
to line again. They had hardly returned to
their positions, however, before they broke and
ran again—in fact, proved worse than useless.
The remainder of the infantry charged upon
the enemy’s batteries, several cf which could
not be seen till they entered the wood, where
they came suddenly upon a large infantry
force that had lain concealed from ;Le com
mencement of the fight. This force opened
fire upon our men with frightful effect. Tee
slaughter at this point was very great, more
than one-half the men of the 28th w New York
were killed and wounded Col. Douneily,
commanding, was mortally wounded; the
Lieutenant-Colonel. Brown, and the Major are
both wounded, and there is not a Captain of a
company left to the regiment. The 10th Maine
lost about one hundred and fifty in killed and
wounded; the oth Connecticut suffered simi
larly, besides losing Col. Chapman, who was
taken prisoner. The 4Cth Pennsylvania had
hardly enough men left to form a full compa
ny. Col Knipe wa9 wounded in the head and
in the arm, but not fatally; Lieut.-Col. Self-
iidge was slightly injured, and the Major was
shot through his arm.
But in the confusion of the hour it i3 impos
sible to get particulars accurately Geary’s
and Gordon s forces have all suffered. Gen.
Geary is slightly wounded, and a few minutes
ago Gen Banks received an injury from a
cavalryman, who ran violently against him
while he waa about to mount his horse.
Gen. Crawford and staff were near being
taken prisoners twice during the fight. On
both occasions they were examining different
points, with a view to a change of position,
when they came upon the rebel pickets. For
tunately, they all escaped unhurt.
While I am writing, the wounded are beiDg
carried to the rear ; for although the firing on
both sides stopped at 9, p. m , it Is expected
the fight will be renewed in the morning, with
largely augmented forced on both sides
Our cavalry force at Madison Court House,
under Gen. Buford, has been driven out, and
from every point we receive intimations that
the rebels have determined to offer us an ob
stinate and bloody resistance. What the rebel
loss has been to day we cannot ascertain.
ANOTH ER ACCOUNT OF THE BATTLE.
Cclbepfer, Va., Aug. 9.
In consequence of tbe advance of the rebels
to this side of the Kapidsn, Maj. Gen. Pope
sent forward two army corps, commanded by
Gen. Banks, to hold thorn lu check.
At daylight this morning It was discovered
that ihe enemy had advanced as far as Cedar
Run Mountain, holding its wooded s ! des and
cleared slopes Only a small portion of their
strength, however, was visible. They also
held a range of elevations and ravines west
ward of the mountain.
An elevated spot, a mile and a half from
the mountain, and a mile long, east and west,
was selected by Gen. Banks as the best place
to receive their attack. The forenoon was
spent by the enemy in manmuvres, only occa
sionally showing themselves.
At 3 o’clock in the afternoon, a battery on
our front, at a mile and a half range, epensd
upen us, and their infantry drove in our pick
ets into the woods cn our right wing. After
wards battery aftery was unmasked on the
mountain slopes and on every hill, making a
cresent of batteries of nearly three miles,
commanding our position for two hours. Our
batteries were exposed to cross fire3 and flank
fires at every point. The rebels evidently out
numbered us in guns and weight of metal.—
We replied shot for shot till 5 o'clock, when
the rebels epensd an enfilade battery on our
right. Gen. Banks here gave orders to cease
fire and charge this battery. The duty was
assigned to Crawford’s brigade of Williams’
division, and the 46th Pennsylvania regiment
led the charge. Behind the battery was a
thicket cf shrub oak, and before the 4Cth
Pennsylvania regiment eouid reach the rebel
guns they were mowed down by a terrible fire
from the thicket. The rest of the brigade was
quickly brought up, and subsequently the rest
of Gen. Williams’ and Gen. Anger’s com
mands; but the brigades cf tlie rebels were
found at every point.
The battle ground was m a thick set wood,
with a ravine on our right Here nearly all
the enemy's infantry had been concealed du
ring the shelling, after securing themselves
from observation by expelling our pickets
This was probably one of the hardest
oonte3tei battle-fields in Virginia, lasting un
til dark, when cur forces retired from tho
field, taking a new position beyond reaoh of
the enemy’s guns, which were in an advanta
geous position ou the heights.
Our infantry were badly cut up. We lost
two guns. The enemy’s I033 was certainly
greater than ours, as their dense columns were
frequently riddled by our artillerists. We
took many priseners.
Culfktfek, August 11.—The enemy, this
morning, sent in a flag of truce, asking per
mission to bury their dead This shows that,
with all their superiority of numbers they
were too badly cut up to maintain their posi- (
tlon, and that their falling back yesterday was j
from necessity, not choice
Our troops are engaged in bringing on our j
wounded from the field and bury in a the dead, i
Washington, Aug. 11.—Accounts from Cul- 1
pepper represent the enemy’s estimated force
engaged at 20,000, and our own, exclusive of
cavalry and artillery, as not exceeding 7,000.
The number of United States soldiers woun
ded is large, but tbe wounds are generally
slight. The number of killed is small.
On Saturday night the teamsters let their
fires burn, causing the enemy to shell our new
position for two hours with considerable ef
fect.
Yesterday morning tho rebels wer8 not in
sight on our front, tut tbe indications were
that they were reinforced cn Saturday night,
end were attempting to flank our movpments.
Washington, Aug. 11, P M.—Advices have
teen received down to three o’clock this after
noon. There bad been no further hostilities
up to that time.
A large number of wounded officers have
arrived here from the scene of the late battle.
They report our logs in officers disproportion
ately heavy. Some who were in the battles
of Winchester and Port Bepublic declare that
this Tight was much severer than either of
those.
The excitement over the battle has engross
ed public attention ber9 to-day, almost entire
ly to the exclusion cf everything else.
FURTHER FROM FOPE'3 ARMY.
The following appears in the Baltimore Sun
of the 13th inst.:
Cue pepper, Aug. 12.—The stragglers from
the battle field to town have all been arrested
by General Pc-pe, and to-morrow a list of the

Sunday night, about 11 o’clock, while Gens.
Pope and Banks were in conference in the rear
of four advanced batteries, a body of the eue-
my'.8 cavalry charged in the most daring man
ner through the woods on our front upon the
group
The discharge of musketry and the wkiziing
of builets near them gave timely notice of the
rebels' approach. Horses were immediately
mounted and a regiment of infantry fired a
volley, checking the charge and probably sa

MORGAN* IN TENNESSEE
Louisville, Aug. 12—The guerilla John
Morgan, with 1,800 cavalry and four pieces of
artillery, entered Gallatin, Tenn , early this
rcornirg and captured Col. Boone, command
ing the post, with about three hundred men of
the 28th Kentucky, and a Federal freight train
containing CO horses and a lot cf oats and
corn, and then retired.
There is great excitement here
'The Editor of the Savannah Niwi and
the Irish,
.Vesara Editors:
In looking over the Savannah News cf tie
30th ult , I notice the following ;
“ In almost every paper we pick up we see
a notice of some scoundrel who has been pass
ing counterfeit Confederate Treasury notes.—
As a general thing, they are paid out by Jews
and Irish who have been buying cotton at
enormously high price?, os well as provosions
of all kinds, and paying for the same in this
counterfeit money, which they or their agents
buy from the Yankees at Nashville, Hunts
ville, and other places, for little or nothing.”
Surely this is very strong language, and a
sweeping charge. He says the Irish—meaning
all. The. noble and enthusiastic editor men
tions a Jew firm in Columbus. Ga., who are
implicated in the above infamous charge ; but
he fails to give the name of any Irish firm of
Columbus or any where else, that is guilty.—
Now, as an honest and honorable man, he is
bonnd to do so, or retract the charge. It’s
wrong to confound the innocent with the
guilty.
The editor is not as well posted in regard to
the price cf cotton as he pretends to fce. The
writer can inform him that the merchants in
almost all the town3 on the line of railway
from Savannah to Atlanta have teen paying
from 13 to 20 cents per pound for good cotten
for some .time past.
He also makes a Morgan da3h at the facto
ries. and says most of them at least are a dis
grace to tbe State and a curse to the South. I
trust thoae factories are not ail owned by the
Jews and Irish.
In conclusion I shall venture to make the
editor of the Neirn a proposition. Tt is this :
If he can mention the name of one Irishman
in the Confederate States who is guilty of tbe
foul charge he rnp.kes against them, I wil
show him a black swan that may swim on the
pools of corruption, when the reptiles of the
day are engendered.

Richmond, Aug. 18.—The Confederate Con

rum was present in both Houses.
Among the papers submitted to Congress fcy
the President, is a highly interesting corres
pondence between Gen. Lee and Gen- Halleck,
touching the question of retaliation for Fede
ral wrongs.
Halleck says that he has no official knowl
edge of the execution of Mumford and Owens,
in New Orleans, by Gen, Butler, but that he
will inquire into the matter and communicate
the result. He expresses the hope that the
war will be conducted according to civiliied
usage.
Halleck declines to receive Lee’s letter re
garding Pope’s atrocious army orders and the
enlistment of negro regiments, on the ground
that it is insulting to his government; he,
therefore, returns it without further answer.

we stated that the one who attempted the life
