Ashby’s regiments -with only Day’s battalion, who.after receiving and return* ing the lire of ihc parly in ambush, were order ed to fall bank, which they did in iho very best order. The party in ambush now came out and pursued this battalion a Short distance, when Col Morrison si 'Lie head ordered a charge.— The gallant Day repeated the order, aiu],a wild yell burst- forth, a cloud of dust rolled up. and the battalion,went thntfdcring towards the Yan kee squadrons who could not rtand tho impetu osity til' the onset.-but rapidlyTelt back oil their infantry and artillery. By this time the 1st Georgia and Col. Ashby’s regiment came up.— Col. Morrison at once saw the necessity ol in tercepting the force after Col. Chenault .before it could -reach Travtsville; where his train and sick were just arrived. Accordingly dispatch ing .Maj. Cobb (ivho was in' command ol Ash by’s regiment).-to intercept and engage the parly moving towards Tnivtavillc*. Col. M. intui tively almost, selected a strong position, whete hills on "each ' aide made into the little valley through which runs the Albany road Across the level space between these hills, Col. Mor rison ordered ibis regiment to form, and every man (o die before the path sboald be given'up at the same time ordering Day's battalion to take position 1 to the left of his regiment.' We wero not in line Jong before tho enemy opened on us with their battery. Ro'nnd shot whistled over head, while shells hissed like vipers at our feet. Nowand then.a shell would burst in air above us, sendiug its fragments bailing and shrieking among the files, tearing our clothes and cuffing our horses considerably.- .One .man and horse were knocked by a round shot clear out of ranks, killing both instantly. The men gave one quick, painful glance at their dead comrade and closed in loTheJeft sail nothing had happened. For thirty minutes the 1st Georgia stood under this hailstorm of shot and shell, neither man nor horse moving a muscle. Major Sam Da vine riding si .uly in front of the line, calmly and quietly reminding the men and officers of their great responsibilities and duty to their country. I do not think there, is an ino stance parallel! in the history ol the war where a regiment ol cavalry has s'ood the concentra ted fire ol a battrry, well manned, at the abort range of four hundred yards. At tho expit ation of this time, the enemy finding shelling to he of no avail, forwarded a regiment of cavalry, supported by infantry, toward our left flank, intending to charge Bay’s battalion; bat ho poured » galling tiro into theta, and just tlien CspL ilewnU turned loose his fino Parrot guns, and ‘ shell after shell burst among the blue and serried ranks of the Yankee forces. Their line tvnvere, they tujn, and now they scatter dll over tho valley, each vicing with the other to gain the front of the flying and confused non-s. Our battery had by this time exhausted all of its ammn- niti. c except five rounds for the gun that, from some cause, came late into the action — AVe had three guns in all, only two of which were engaged. CoL M rrisoa saw that he must ?oon withdraw, and now Beemed the most propitious moment; so, placing efaaip-shoot- er.» on each hill making into the valley, he directed them to keep up a continual firing until ho could get well on the Albany rood, and thru bring ftp the rear, (CaL.Carter’s reg- imrat being in reserve, and about four or five miles in our re»r, came up just before we withdrew; not in time, however, to.take any P-rt iu the action ) Col.

Ua their, l-outo through this county, they told a man tjhcy must have his horses, that they wero Van Dorn’s men, out impressing horses for tavalry service. Tho gentleman thought it wits all so, but wanted them to pay him or give Shim a rcc-ipt for. them. They told him to go to Jackson in three weeks, Van Dorn would be there and ho would pay him. They stopped our mail coach, took the hor ses, demolished the coach, opened the mail bag, and then presented tho mail driver with’ a handsome horse. Some of tho men robbed a Masonic LAlgo, but the Colonel finding il out, ordored (them lo fako back to the Lodge everything thisy had taken. While in OkJtctibeha county, a squad ol these Federal.* stoppid at a certain house and tepre- eented themselves as Confederates. The nbxt dav returning Itliey rode up to the same house, and asked lor something to eat. Bread and milk was sent to them, which they ate while Sitting on tlieig horses,' returned the glasses un broken, (contrary to what has been stated.)— They remarked to the family, they were “Con- lederates yestekday, Federate to-day, and they didn’t know what they’d be to-morrow.” The herd of the family,” a worthy, man, was kept a prisoner a few hours, then released. They took his watch and horse and in return gave him two'jaded horses and one V°one> sound mule.

Only one man was used roughly; he attempted to ran, and received a cut on Ins head with a sabre. They then gave him seven horses and ten ne groes, by way of a plaster lor his wound, which was slight. Pretty good plaster don’t you think ! Bnt he sent the negroes off to find their way back to their masters.

(llutncc.loravllle Burnt. « The Richmond Examiner of the 11th says: During tbo battle, tho large brick tavern on the Orange plank road, which, with ils out houses, constituted Chancellors ville, and which was occupied by the Yankees as a hos pital, was accitleutally set on tiro by our shells, and, with all its iumates, five or six hundred in number, was consumed. . Among those who lost their Uvea by this catastrophe, was Brig. Gen. Seth Williams, of Maine, who was Adju tant-Genera), first-to McClellan and after wards to Burnside, add lastly, to Ho >ker, and who is said to have been, betore the war, a warm personal friend of Gen. Lee. Such was the exigency, of the- hour, the battle being at its fiercest, that none could be spared from the ranks to save the poor wounded, wretches from the most borrib.le of deaths—being roasted alive. As the flames approached them, and they became aware of their situation, their frantic screams were distinctly heard above the roar of battle that raged nround them.— Subsequently to this, another conflagration, even more appalling, occurred. The woods on a portion of the bottle.field, where laid ia- (ermingled the dead and wonnded of both ar raies, took fire, and .many, whose pounds pre vented their moving, were burnt to death. It is said by some (hat Hooker had tho woods fired to prevent onr pursuit of his shattered divisions, bnt this story is too horrible to be helieved even of a Yankee. For the erf dit of human nature, we are unwilling to believe that a General, even though a Yankee, would con sign his own countrymen, who bad been dis abled iu his ranks, to the most excruliating of deaths. were nofofighung^for the niggers, but lor. the Union the Constitution, and that twentj ia tne i-onsittuuon, and that twenty thousand troops would comethrough Mississippi.

Accompaning her v as her soldier son, some sixteen or seventeen years of ago, in some what delicate health, who had obtained a furlough at Vidksburg, and was on his way home to spend a short season with his-motli- er. *■ i On their arrival at Edward’s depot, and bearing that that point was threatened by the enemy, the mother remarked to her son that he had probably better return to his regiment? that he might be cut oft from bis command by going on with her, that a critical juncture was upon us an i that, his country now needed his services more than ever. As happy aa she would be to share his company at home tor a fev? weeks, she told him she would prefer that lie should remain at the post of duty until the present crisis was passed over. He accordingly got on the down train and returned to Vicksburg. IIjm1 the nren of onr Slate the courage, patriotism and self-denial of this"widowed mother, a Yankee conld not remain within the’ limits of the State twenty.four hours.— Jackson {Mist.,)Appear, Qth Mag. t'H VHL11SWN matth.br- .

One hundred and twenty Mis souri in fantry, after marching three days and fasting and fighting thirty hours, formed line of battle, received Gieireon’s, charge, killed forty of his men at the first fire, aud sent the rest reeling and plunging back to Elkhorn, and they moved quietly off to join General Price. The artillery was saved. Grierson did not try it on any more. Two hundred men with shot-guns and with sand in their gizzards, taking advantage of position, could have arrested Grierson,s march, and saved U3 this humiliation, and the disasters that may follow. Whenever the Yankees commence any demonstration against Vicksburg, Gen. Pemberton immediately issues orders to the telegrayh operators prohibiting the send ing of news till the action is over. He says that if it is .known when tho Yankees are firing at the city, all the women and. children in the; surrounding country will A KO. 1 f*tCA!US*IKK»S FOR SAI.K. \ ii IV »•' f.ir sato mio of tho nun vaYuI.I.* »>f ; Twinf* lo Lt- ?'mi i*l iu a»»y coiuitrjr,. htticoglng to ** . o LornNMl.>i'U\ Te-an, «•- n-inliujr oi • WcniuitfS ■ ■* > Bt who U 1 iu evt’iy leapoct S :a:a*i;re»B, ,tt k, Wirthfrsnti /d.MicJ* tauii ^vuoral house nenraot, aud ii»r ill no (.hiltlr.Mi, They wUI Le h 4«!t»n leans to a i?o-h? mister, Itap.ili.jitioa is in.ila aOJii to ll M CLARKB, ty!4 "t* Hiietl AtlfiDta, U& Just Received.
