As there has been conflicting rumors
in regard to Lieut. A. 11. Rutherford
wounds, wo publish the following ex
tract from a letter written by him, dated
Near Manassas, Sept. 1, which will allay
any uneasiness his friends may have
heretofore felt :
“ I was shot twico during the engage

ball penetrated. Brother Robert was
not hurt. Our regiment suffered severe
ly—about one-half, I suppose, is killed
and wounded.”
J.ate Yankee Papers.
We have received flies of the Neic
York Herald up to the 80th ult. Most of
the “ important news” which they con
tain relative, to tho lato battles, has al
ready been furnished us by telegraph.
As usual with the “ Herald,” it claims a
vielory for the “Union” arms up to the
30tb, and says Pope has given Jackson a
terrible drubbing.
As an example of its mendacity, wo
insert tho following dispatch from Nash
vilie, furnished by its special correspon
dent:
“NASHVILLE BEING FORTIFIED.”
“Nashville, Aug. 20.—Gen. Rosseau
has arrived and taken command of this
post. Strong fortifications commanding
the city have been erected. The Rebels
have evacuated Chattanooga and gone- to
Knoxville.”
The Herald also contains an account
of a “ large and enthusiastic Union
meeting” in New Orleans; also an ac
count of tho evacuation of Baton Rouge,
and the “removal of the State Govern
ment to New Orleans ” Os course the
accounts of these “Union meetings” are
visionary, and gotten up for the special
purpose of reviving (he drooping spirits
of the Yankee army, and to encourage
enlistments.
It contains an extract from tho Wash
ington “National Republican” stating
that there was a large “rebel” force of
cavalry at Leesburg, and that a “rebel
raid” upon Washington was daily ex
pected. One cannot read tho lato tele
graphic reports of the Herald, claiming
“ great victories” at Manassas and Bull
Run, without experiencing a feeling of
the deepest disgust at the hardened de
pravity and unblushing impudence which
can mature and publish to a deluded and
phrenzied people a batch of lies so pal
pable that they carry the marks of wanton
falsehood on their very face. The Herald
has long enjoyed the reputation of being
the most unscrupulously lying journal in
the civilized world, but it seems never to
have reached the lowest depths of Yan
kee depravity until the outbreak of this
Abolition crusade.
As soon as the crowded state of our
columns will permit, we shall probably
make some extracts from tho editorial
columns of this shameless sheet, more
for the gratification of a curiosity to see
to what depths of infamy this abolition
hireling has reached, than anything else.
From Virginia,
Jlr. J. W. Knott returned from Virginia
last Saturday. 110 went up from llieh
motid to tho Rapidan Station, Central
Railroad, with tho 2d Georgia Battalion
and left them there on tho 31st, but they
were on the point of a forward march.—
The Battalion hardly numbered 200 men
—one half of it being down with bowel
complaints contracted during their recoat
picket duty on the Peninsula, A*heio the
water and the climate wore equally bad,
and there were too many apples and too
much cider. Mr. Knott reports that Slc-
Laws’ division and other troops amount
ing to 40,000 men were at Rapidan Station.
They had been stationed at Hanover C.
H., to check any advance McClellan
might make from Fredericksburg, and
when he left, took up the line of march
for tho main army, having already foot
ed it seventy miles from Hanover Court
House. Semmcs’, Walker’s, and Ilow
ell Cobb’s Brigades were of the number,
which included many regiments, (Doyle’s
among them) from this region of Geor
gia. They were all in fine health and
spirits, had plenty to eat, and were
crossing the Rapidan on Saturday—the
river being about knee high. Mr. Knott
brought a large budget of letters from the
boys. He saw and conversed with Qon.
Cobb and John B. Lamar, who were in
fine health, and had not, of course, been
near any light. —Macon Tel. Bth.
A noble hearted lady of liaitimore
wrought with her own hands a magnifi
cent silk bed quilt, in the centre of which
she had embroidered tho name of Presi
dent Davis, with a large Confederate flag,
with-a, white oross in the centre of tho
blue ground. The names of the Cabi
net officers and some of the principal
Confederate Generels were also wrought
iu the quilt, with the finest taste and
ingenuity. The Federal Marshal of Bal
timore bearing of the prize, seized it as
contraband of war, and turned it over to
Gen. Wool as a specimen of feminine
treason. If deniod the privilege of per
secuting and torturing tho ladies, Lin
coln’s government would lose moro than
half its renown, and the whole of its
pleasures.
OUR RICHMOND CORRESPOJIOFNCE.
Richmond, Sept. sth, 18C2.
I Bear Sun: Six days have elapsed since
I the great battle of Saturday last, on the
classic Plains of Manassas, and wo are
without full particulars of the result on
cither side. The city 13 agitated with
wild reports from day to day, which on
the morrow, aro found to boas “baseless
as the fabric of a vision” ; yet all relia
ble general accounts concur ia tho fact
that the defeat and rout of the enemy,
was equal to, if not greater, than the
memorable conflict of July 21st of last
year. No bulletins are issued from the
War Department, and almost tho only
facilities for obtaining information are
from the columns of the morning papers,
and now and then, a “reliable gentle
man,” by the Central train. The latest
information received this afternoon is
embodied in the following extra, which I
send you, some, if not all of which, has
probably already been anticipated by
telegraph:
[From the Richmond Whig Extra, sth.]
We are kindly permitted to take tiio follow
ing extracts from a letter from an ollieer of
Gen. Jackson’s corps:
Wednesday, Aug. 27—About 2 P. M., General
Ewell, whose Division, except Trimble’s Brig
ade, had remained at Bristoe, was pressed by
heavy columns of the enemy from tho direc
tion of Warrenton. The Yankees were checked
with great loss on their side—some 100 killed
and wounded on our part. Gen. Ewell rejoined
Gen. Jackson in the evening, when the whole
army moved towards,Sndley’s Mills,the enemy
immediately occupying Manassas. In the eve
nings bloody fight ensued on or near Dogan’a
farm, already hallowed by tho blood of our
brave men shod on the 21st of July, 1801. Gen.
Jackson was satisfied with the result, though
our loss in officers is peculiarly heavy.
Thursday —A lerritic battle took place Ibis af
ternoon, near the scone of last night’s tight;
tho enemy repulsod with loss.
Friday —hi early all the day engaged in fight
ing. The enemy attacked us four- several
times, and each time was successfully repelled.
Saturday. —This was tho grand dav. before
which all other days of this war pale. Mc-
Clellan, Jialleck, Pope, ct id. omne genus, are
gathered on the same plain, and marshal their
mighty hosts for the subjugation of the Reb
els i No—for the preservation of their capital I
Ninety thousand Yankees, as if by (he move
ment of a spring, arc thrown witli thundering
force upon our gallant army—men wearied
with heavy marches and continuous fights.—
Without tho usual prelude of skirmishing,
they attack ourwhole tine simultaneously, aud
are driven back with a loss almost fabulous.—
Again they come—again repulsed. Fresh Di
visions—McClellan’s chosen troops—Fitz.John
Porter’s corps of regulars—come up to meet
the same fate of their comrades, when at last
our boys could lie restrained nolongcr. Witli
a yell ihcy charged on the rotreating onemy,
when a rout ensued equal to that of Bull Run
of the 21st July, ’CL They wore pursued for
miles—they hying to Oentreville, and wo fol
lowing immediately behind.
Sunday night.— The main battle of yesterday
was fought on the line of tho railroad from
Gainesville to Alexandria—tho independent
track which was commenced but not comple
ted—our left resting near Dudley’s Mill’s, and
right on the battle held of the 21st July, ’ui—
iu ranr sis Ornrolmi, by Dio Ito
gan house, and widening up in tho rout.
Such a series ot battles has never occurred
on this continent. Leo’s army lias marched,
within a fortnight, 150 miles, and fought four
battles and sundry combats. We owe to God
a debt of gratitude lor all his mercies, and for
his evident intervention in our behalf as a peo
ple.
We have also been furnished with tho fol-.
lowing extraci from a private letter :
Gainesville, Sept. I.—We have given the Yan
kees an awful drubbing—surpassing any day
before Richmond. Jackson and Longstreet
used them up. They went off in Bull Run
style. Our left (Jackson) fought on the left of
the turnpike, about where Evans fought them
fust on tlio 21st July. Longstreet whipped
them exactly upon the ground at the Henry
House. Three Yankees lie dead under a little
tree where poor Bartow lay. We whipped
them three times nearly on the same ground,
and Manassas 2lst, makes four times. They
ought to be satisfied now. 1 have just heard
that the Yankees havo gone from Centreville,
and aro pushing for life to Washington.
Sept. 1, OP. it.—ln. tho saddle at Sndloy’s
Church. Our troops going on to Fairfax—en
emy “skedaddling” yet, and wo aro getting
prisoners and contrabands innumerable. As
soon as we arrest the Yankees we release the
privates and send them to Harper’s Ferry, on
their way home. The officers we keep, of
course, for the benefit of Gen. Pope’s Procla
mation.
Privato J. J. Clapp, of the Columbus
Guards, has just arrived here from (ho
army, having left Monday morning and
walked fifty miles (0 Rapidan slation, in
two days. lie has furnished mo with a
list of killed and wounded in companies
and regiments from Columbus and vieini

R. J. Y. '
I'. S. Sittco the foregoing was written,
I learn from an authentic source that
another fight occurred Monday—proba
bly between Fairfax C. 11. aud Falls
Church—in which tho enemy Buffered
another disastrous defeat. The engage
ment, however, was only a partial one.
No particulars received.
Among the killed Saturday was the
Yankee General Kearney. An cfuoer of
a Georgia regiment writes that Kearney
rode up, by mistake, in front of the 49th
Georgia regiment, and being called upon
to surrender, turned his horse and at
tempted to escape, when a volley from
our boys brought him to the ground.—
His body was taken possession of by
Major B. H. Holt, of tho eamo brigade,
and forwarded under flag of truce to tho
enemy’s lines. Thus qads the career of
of one of their ablest Generals. The
85th Georgia, commanded by acting Col.
B. 11. Holt, suffered severely, though he
has thus far escaped unhurt. This regi
ment was also in the battle of “Cedar
Run.”
It is authoritatively stated that the
New York and Brooklyn Zouaves, by
their own request, were oa Saturday pitt
ed against Hood’s Texas brigade and tho
Louisianians, they desiring to avenge the
terrible castigation inflicted by the Tex
ans on Friday, The consequence was
that greund was .“pilol with Zouaves
slain” and their regiment almost literal
-1 y annihilated, as were their predecessors
ou nearly tho same spot a little more
than thirteen months ago.
Tho present lcoalitias of tho two ar
mies is not definitely known, though the
transportation of pontoon bridges for tlio
past day or two, from this oily is signifi
cant of the very close proximity pf out
army to (ho shores of Maryland,- and
tho intention of the Commander iu Chief
to carry tho war beyond tho Potomac.
Those pontoon bridges were oapturod
from the enemy on J.imeu Hirer gome
time sins o
The 21 Georgia battalion having been
detached for the purpose of guarding
Commissary stores at Rapidan Station, 4
miles below Orange C. 11, were not en -
gaged in tho late fights.
I will write again very soon, and com
munieato any further reliable particu
lars that may be received ia the interim.

The Richmond Dispatch of Saturday
says wq have no additional news from
our army on the Potomac. Tho accounts
which v.’o receive of Liao battle of Satur*
Joy last tend to confirm tho opinion that
it resulted in ono of the.most decisive
and glorious triumphs of the present
war. The loss ou both sides must have
barn great, but wc understand that it is
asserted by -oflioers who rode over tho
hold after the bailie was ended, that the
enemy’s loss was at least live to ono.
Tho reports with reference to the pros
Cut position of our army arc conflicting:
one representing it to bo at Munson’s
Hill, in sight of Washington city, and
another at Leesburg, in Loudon county.
This much we aro guaranteed in saying :
I hat it is not idle, and that at no distant
day wo may hear of another and more
effective blow than even this last, power
ful as it Ins been.
A dispatch received late last evening
at tho War Department confirms tho
evacuation of Winchester by tho enemy’s
forces.
—____ <*. —
'i’ll* Nrerctary of Hie STavy.
A writer iu the Richmond Enquirer,
says.
U iicj Ms. Mallory was made Secretary
oi th. Navy, there was, as all conceded,
no civilian in tho Confederacy so well
qualified for the position. Fora number
of years, us Chairman of tho Committee
of Naval Affairs in the Unitod States
Senuio, ho has had his attention turned
to this subject. His studies havo been
iu ibis direction. It has been his speciali
ty. Who is there now in the South that
can brtt:r fiil his place? Could his as
sailants agree upon a proper person?
Would anybody suit them a month or a
week?
Speaking of the general dissatisfaction
growing out of tho destruction of the
Virginia, lie says:
Public opinion still condemns the dc
ttvffcfion of the ship, and very justly;
but, who will deny that Mr. Mallory has
i Imo his full duty in tho premises? Por
| sistent malieo may allege that bcoauso
Mr. Maßory went to Norfolk he directed
I iisovacuaticn, andthusrcnderednoces
earyi tfo destruction of the Virginia. But
any one wilt seo on reflection that this
; evacuation was a military measure puro
ly, and that when this was directed by
the War Department, in express accordance
with the opinion of General Joseph E. John
ston, (recently published,) tho Secretary
of tho Navy had nothing to do but try
end save as muoh as possible from the
Navy Yard and naval stores.
The next caso is tho destruction of tho
IKet on Lake l’ontohartrain.
Mr. Mallory did not order that oithor,
aud he has ordered the officer in question
to be tried by ft court martial. Aro tho
critics satisfied here, or do they think it
would havo been wiser for tho Secretary
to have directed the burning of tho fleet
and not ordered the court mariial? The
aicamevH Louisiana and Mississippi come
next in turn They were incomplete
when the enemy passed the Mississippi
forts, and wore burnt to prevent their
falling into his hands. Now it is plain
that the irUe question hero is—were the
vp*»,-'!3 pushed forward to completion
with duo energy ?• er was there unneccs
aary delay, and did Mr. Mallory know
and permit it ? Naval men of high abil
ity had charga cf the .business. Naval
officers cf character who were in New
Orleans say the work waSpushod forward
as fast ns possible. The last case is the
-Arxwisfi-i.' Bhc was completed on the
Yario river. Her ougine proved a poor
or.c, failed to wprk at the critical moment
of haVTc, i.nd made the 'destruction of
the vessel necessary. At present the
! has not the materials, workshops
and artiz-iBS lo make steam engines. Is
Mr. Mallory lo blamo for this? Tbo
commercial aud industrial dependence of
the South upon (ho North, which lias
■cm bar roused us so much in this war, i3
r,rnr> rly attributed to the Union which
‘ aaigcod us to a hopeless inferiority iu
,j; th-j useful arts. Those politicians
v j,-,;a cbicfstack in trade was to preaorvo
the Union and perpetuate this depend
ence, would do well to say as little as
possible on this head.
