July 22.—The reports of the killed ~ j wounded were so unreliable last night, in the .itemeot and confusion following the victory at XaDiMW, that I refrained from mentioning them !-ful of giving pain to arixion* hearts. Gen. Beauregard and Suit are safe. Beau re £ , r j's horse was shot from under him. General j .cph E Johnson commanded the left, where the , .mr made their fiercest attack.

When the left was pressed the severest, the cen tre disengaged a portion of the enemy's force, and , 1 J the fortunes of the day. No other reliable reports received, but hourly ripected. _ it is -latcd that the enemy was commanded by G. erals Scott, Patterson and McDowell, and it is reported that the latter is severely wounded. .tmo.ig the dead are Generals Bartow of Geor fii *>'d 11*** °l South Carolina; Kirliy and Smith ot Florida, sttd Col.

The following dispatch, dat ed Manassas, Sunday night, read by t he Clerk • To General 8. Cooper, Adjutant General.—Night has closed upon a hard fought field. Our forces have won a glorious victory. The enemy was touted and tied pfe.cpiutely, abandoning a very large amount of arms, munitions of war knap sacks nd baggage. The ground was strewn for unles with the killed. The farm houses and ground* are filled with the wounded. The pursuit was continued along several routes towards Lees b-irg and Centreville, until darkness covered the fugitives. We have captured several field batte ries and regimental stand ol arms, aud one I'nited States fhg. Many prisoners have been taken.— Too high praise cannot be bestowed, whether for the skill of the principal officers, or for the gal lantry of all the troops. Ihe battle wa3 mainly (ought on our left, several miles from our held works. Our force engaged did not exceed fifteen thousand—that of the enemy is estimated at thir ty-five thousand. (Signed) Jeep. Davis. Resolutions offered by Mr. Memminger, unani mously adopted: lietolved, That we recoguizo the hand of the Most High God, the King of Kings and Lord of Lords, in the glorious victory with which he has crowned our army at Manassas, and that the peo ple of these Confederate Stales are invited by ap prop iate services upon the ensuing Sabbath, to offer up their united thanksgiving and praise for this mighty deliverance. lifsolved. That deeply deploring the necessity which has washed the soil of our country with the blood of so many of her noblest sons, we offer to their respective families and friends our warmest and most cordial sympathies, assuring them -hut the sacrifice made, will be consecrated in the hearts of our people, and who will there enshrine the names H the gallant dead, as tlie champions of Free aod Constitutional Liberty. Lend red, That we approve the prompt and pa triotic efforts of the Mayor of Richmond, to make provision for the wounded, and that a committee of one member from each State be appointed to co operate in the plan. Resolved, That Congress do now adjourn. City lull of rumors about the number killed and wounded on both sides, and tlie movements mak ing, bat all are utterly unreliable. Bodv of Fran cis 8. Bariow and perhaps other* expected in the train to-night. A correspondent of the Richmond Dispatch re lates the following incident of the t-kirmishe* at Martiosburg, last w eek: An inedeut is related of the Rev. Captain Pen dletoo, of the Artillery, in the receot skirmish, which shows clearly wliat “stuff he is made of.” Having loaded and aimed his piece, he calmly raised his hands and uttering the short prayer, “May the Lord have mercy upon their poor souls,” gave the command to fire ! and that ball struck the head of a column, and when the smoke cleared away it* path was still visible. The Life of a Soldier in Camp. —As the present war possesses at least the charm of nofelty—though the people of the South are as familiar as those of any other portion of the eouutry with all “the pomp and cir cumstance of glorious war”—a brief state ment of the daily routine of duties jierforined by the soldier while iu camp may not be uninteresting. A volunteer says : “At 5 o’clock we liavo revellie, when we all turn out ‘armed and equipped’ for ‘roll call,’ after which wc are at leisure uutil 7 o’clock, when there is a company or squad drill for one hour, ami at half-past nine this is reported. Wc are then allowed to employ ourselves as we please until half-past four, at which hour the Regiment is drilled in bat tallion tactics by tbe Cononel for an hour. At half-past six we appear in uniform for ‘dress parade,’ which is nothing more than the whole Regiment drawn up iu line before the Colonel, who ‘puts us through a little of the manual, and qurade is dismissed,’ At 9 P. M. conies ‘tattoo,’ when the roll is again called, and in a half hour thereafter, at ‘taps,’ we are required to put out lights aud retire. Each morning a certain num ber, from four to five from each company, are detailed, in alphabetical order, as ‘the guard’ for the uext twenty-four hours.— They are then divided into first, second and third reliefs. The first goes on at 7A. M. for two hours, and are then relieved for four hours by numbers two and three, who serve for two hours each, when number one go on again, and so on through the twenty-four hours. Only six men from each company are allowed to go into town during the day, and it never happens that the full number do not apply for permission, which is in the shape of an ordiuary ‘pass,’ signed by tbe Captain of the company.” Calico and Silk. There are people, we know, who despise calico. They iguore even a knowledge of its aspects and qualities—very good. We have no wish to quarrel with their taste. It is well for society that tastes differ; and that with the progress of luxury and means, that difference occasions desires that fill our stores with gay robes, shawls, mantillas, etc., in crease the exertions of trade, add an impetus to commercial enterprise, and swell the na tional wealth. But apart from all these con siderations, why should r-ot a modest woman look as well in calico as in silk ? Is there notas much real beauty, artistically speaking, in a form clad gracefully in one article, as a form no more gracefully clad, in another ? There are women, no doubt, so much con trolled by the mere dicta of fashion, that they despise common sense. They admire noth ing but what is costly. Tiny prefer ancient elegauce to anything new, which does not go beyond a good taste, and a durable sub stance” ‘Tis “a foolish and a vain pre tence,” and adds nothing to a sensible lady’s credit for sound judgement. In truth, it makes little difference what material a wo man wears, so it suits the times and her own social position. Be it calico or silk, it is the woman that adornes the dress—not the dress the wQman, A liiirl Praelicu. A custom is coining very much in vogue in the .South say* the Savannah Rtpyblicuis of politician* raising regiments and placing themselves at the head— or with the under standing that they will be placed there— and taking thoroughly educated ollieer* from the Regular Army f or Lieutenant-Colonels, - lajors and other subordinate, positions ” • know Colonels in the Southern Armv, who six weeks ago were profoundly ignorant of the mystery of “Shoulder Amis!” and jet are ambitious ot leading the armies of the Republic. i Tills is ail wrong, and public sentiment, j if nothing else, should put a stop to it.— Unskilled civilians who place themselves, or allow others to place them, in responsible military positions, of whose duties they know nothing, do injustice to professional soldiers, to the service, and to themselves.— Nor can we see how well educated military men can, consistently with a proper respect for their profession, consent to be placed in those subordinate positions with superiors in authority who are perfect dwaifs to them in understanding. \\ hat estimate must they place on their reputations when they are willing to peril them in time of battle upon the blunders of an incompetent leader! There is no reason why the rules of com mon sense should not apply to the affairs of peace. Every man should be in the right place, and no man in a place for which he is unfit. \) e are decidedly opposed to catering to unreasonable ambition by jeo parding the results of this important war upon the contingencies of a different philoso phy at ail.

My uncle was just at the point of drowning. He got his head above the water for once, took off his hat and said : “ Ladies aud gentlemen you must please excuse me !’’ and down he went.
