The Knoxville R“gut»r I arns from oflicial dis

Gen. I’egram turned upon the enemy and pur
sued him until and irk, llis most obstinate stnnd
was in a dense forest two miles south oi Cumber

and revis*d by a boardof ctfic.rs, of which Major
Gea. E. A. Hitchcock was president. Having
been approved by the President of the L sited
States, he commands that they be published.
Among other things, tbe instructions set forth
that a place, district or country occapied by an
enemy stands, in consequence of the occuoation.
under ths martial iutv o loeinvadiDg orcccupying

has been issued or not. MartiaUaw is the imme

anthority, exercised in accordance w.tn the laws
and usages cf wor. . .
Military oppression is not mania, uw ; it is lue
abuse cf the power which that ia v confers as
martial law is executed by military force, it is in

liner it is for humanity. Sharp wars are brief.
The instructions also treat ot tbe appropria

1 here exists no law cr body of authoritative
rules of action between hostile arm es except the
branch of the law of natur-i and oi nations which
i3 called the law and usages cf war on the land.
Slavery, complicating aud confounding the
ideas of properiy (that is of a thug) and of per
sonality, (that is of humanity,) exists sclording
to municipal cr iocal law only, -he lav of nature
and nations La3 never acknowledged it.
The digest o? the Roman Jaw enacts the early
dict.on of the Pagan Jurist, that “so far as the
ia>7 cf nature is concerned, all men are equal.”
Fugitives eecipi g from a country, m wnich
they were siaves, vdiains or serfs, inti another
country, have, for centuries oast, been held free
and i oknowledged free by judie al dc-cu-ioos of
F iropean countries, even trough the munic pal
law of the count y m which the slave bad tukSn
refuge acknowledged slavery wilhiu its own do
mimons.
Therefore, in a war between the United States
and a belligerent which admits o. slavery, if a
person held in bondige by ibat be ligerent be
capture ■ by or come as . fugitive under tbe pro
tectioi o! '.be military iorees of ihe United
SUt b, such ;>- «on it immediately ent'tieh to tbe
liuuts and pimlege: of a free i an.
To retard such pet son into slavery woo'd
amount to ensiavin ; a free person aid n-ither
the United States nor any oflicirs und.-r their
authority cun enslave any i.uniau oeing.
Moreover, a psrson, if made free by the lews of
war, is under the shield of the law of nations, and
the former owner or Stats can have, by lbs law
of port limine, no belligerent lien <r claim of
service.
A traitor, under ihe law of war, or a war
traitor, is a person in a placi or district under
martial law, who, unauthorized by the military
commander, gives information of any kind to the
enemy, or holds ins rcours > with him.
The war trfitor is always s.vere y punished it
his otlence consists in b.-traying to the enemy
anything concerning the concision, safety, oiiera
t.ons or plans of tho troops holdmg or occupying
the place cr district. His punishment is death.
It the ci! zjn or subject of a country or place
invaded or -conquered gives information to his
Government, from wuich he is separated by the
hostile army, or to ihe army of his Government,
he is a war traitor, and death is the penalty of his
ollence.
All armies in the field stand in need of guides,
and impre s thedi if they cannot obtain them
otherwise. No persou having be n forced by the
enemy to serve as a guide, is pu. is’auble for hav
ing done so.
If a citizsn of a hosti e end invaded district
voluntarily nerves as a guide to the enemy, or
oilers to do so, he is deemed a war traitor, and
shall suffer death.
A citizen serving voluntarily as a guide against
liis oin c mntry commits treason, and vv.ll no
re At with according to the law of his country.
Guides, when it is clearly proved that they
have misled intention illy, may be put to death.
Ad i nauthor.zid oraeorit communication with
the enemy is consider.d treasoaable by the law of

10,000 of the enemy, und r G-ns. Kemball uctl
Mowry, on the 4h oi June. With two brigades
of infantry and two regim.nts ot cavalry, and a
battery of twelvo field pieces, they advanced in
two columns, one from Sartartia and one from
Vicksburg. One of the cavalry regiments was
Jim Lane’s Kansas Jayhawkers. Being fully ad
vised of the movement, Gen. Adams sent Major
Borer with part of the 20ih Mississippi cavalry to
rkirmish with them on the Vicksburg road. Capt.

Ail finally fell back to» Meeb'anicsburg, when
onr battery opened upon their ad.at c;. They
soon got the range with their battery, and ad -
vanced in great force iu front and on ootii of bur
flanks—whereupon our battery was withdrawn
and the whole column followed in good order.—
The rear was onvered by Capt. Nei.o ’s compa
ny, previously hotly engaged'or two hours. YV
proceeded about a mdo when the enemy’s caval
ry charged upon Copt. Nelson's company in a
lane, discharging their fire-arms and ilrsn cirurg
ir.g with drawn sabres. Our rt ar guard returned
the tire and checked ihcm twice, aud they charg
ed a third tim a , aud a hand to hand fight ensued,
in which Oapt. Neluon loßt ten men ; most ot the
men having their horses killed under them, and
being unahie to retreat, were captured ; only one
18 fteuered to ha»e Deeu killed.
The rear guard then fed back to where onr line
was formed, under Lieut. Col. Word, in the
woods, to cover the retreat of the battery, but the
enemy did not follow, fearing to enter the woods.
We had ten killed and wounded, and twenty live

the day. Several of our men came iff with sub.e
cuts.
The enemy retreated precipitately on Saturday
