the 11th near Munson’s Hill, in whieh the
Washington Artillery Jwith rifled cannon
and two howitzers, supported by three com

Federal vessels, Savannah, a large sloop of
Mar, and the gun boat, Day-hyht, lying
there, as a target to try the rauge ot gun.**.
The Patrick Henry opened fire and the
Federals replied. The Day-liff hi advanced,
when she received a broadside, which lorced
her to retreat. Advancing again, she was
wet in like manner, and again forced to re
treat. The engagement lasted for half an
hour, and was only discontinued when it be
came too dark. The Patrick Henry then
retired oat of the river.

[The following Hessian account .fa fight
between iWncranU and a portion of
Floyd’s force, is a report ..f a ren
eouirc between Rosenernntz’s army and an
advance post of Floyd’s force, which subse
quently crossed the river and joined the
main body. 1 hat is our understanding of
the despatch :]
Clarksville, Va.—A battle took place
■it three o’clock Tuesday afternoon (10th
instant), near Summerville. Knsenerantz.
: tter making a reconnoisauce, found Floyd’s
army SoUO strong, with sixteen field pieces,
entrenche.l in a powerful position, on the
top of a mountain, on the west side of Gau
cy river, with hisrearand extremes of both
Hanks inaccessible, and foot marked by
heavy forees through the juugle. A strong
detachment of the Confederates was discov
ered out of camp on this side of the River.
Shortly afterwards, the scouts discovered
themselves face to face with a parapet bat
tery, aud a loug line of paliisadea, when the
battle opened fiercely. The Confederates
poured up>on the Federals a terrible fire of
musketry, rifles, canister and shells, causing
some casulties.
Cal. Settle led several companies of his
Irish to a charge upon the hatteri. s, when
be was brought down by a shot in the leg.
Col. Smith engaged the Confederates ou
the left. Col. Lowe directed the attack
upon the front. Lowe was killed. McMul
len’s howitzer battery and Snyder’s two
field pieces were got into the best position
possible, and soon selected two Confederate
guns. 1 heir fire slackened at intervals, but
grew more furious as night approached,
when the German Brigade was led into
action by Col. McCook, under the direction
of Adjutant General Hartzuff.
After a furious fight of three hours, night
compelled the recall of the Federal troops.
The men lay on their arms ready to renew
the fight the next morning, but Floyd fell
back during the night, sinking boats and
destroying the temporary bridge. The
depth of the river and exhaustion of the
troops rendered pursuit impossible. Our
(Federal) loss was fifteen killed and seventy
wounded. Ihe Confederate loss is unknown
as they carried off their dead and wounded,
but it was certainly serious.
llosencrautz’s official account is similar to
that sent last night. He says that there
were about twenty killed and one hundred
wounded. He found two stand* of colors, a
few prisoners, with the camp equipage which
Gen. Floyd had left. Among the names
mentioned for gallantry and soldiery con
duct are Gen’U. Rosencrantz, Ben bam ;
Colonels, McCook, Lyttlo, Low; Capts.
Flartsxruff, Snyder, McMullen, and Major
Burke.

Col. Jaitse* VI. <liu in hero, of roluuiltus.
The name of the above gentleman has j
been proposed for the next Governor of
Georgia. .
He is eminently worthy, in ’eed is one of
nature’s noblemen—“ the highest style of
man.” an intelligent farmer, he was for
years the editor of the ‘-Soil of the South.”
He is rijie in years, and a man of great j
business capacity, a large farmer, a capital
ist. familiar with every interest of the State.
His personal appearance would have
done honor to the Senate, when dignity
and virtuous wisdom occupied seats in the
early days of the Republic.
Col. (’. is not a professional politician,
nor a partisan, but has ever been of the
State Rights School in his creed, since the !
beginning of our national troubles on the i
slavery question. If age, wisdom, expe
rience and virtue qualify for office, he is !
pre-eminently fitted for Governor.
He is “ without spot, or wrinkle, or any
such thing"—a Christian, a patriot, willing
to devote all his energies to the salvation •
of his imperilled country.
Let us, in these times of reform, place a
Man in office, and such is Col. C., physical
ly, mentallv, and morally.

ITls A COMMON OBSERVATION’ that there
are more sufferers from debility, among Ameri
cans, than can be found among any other civilized
nation. The reason is obvious. We take too lit
tle exercise, aud forget the wants of the body in
the absoibing pursuits of business. In all such
cases, ordinary medicines can do little good.—
\\ hat is required is just such a tonic and invigora
tor as Dr. J. Hostetler has given to the world, in
his CELEBRATED “ BITTERS.” The weak aud
nervous denizeti of the counting-house, the ex
hausted toiler upon the shop-hoard, and the pros
trated student of the midnight lamp, have found a
wonderful regeuerator in the “ Bitters,” and pre
fer it to more pretentious, but less efficacious
medicines. But it should not be forgotten that
the agent which is so magical in its influence upon
a frame which is merely debilitated, is equally
powerful iu a sisting nature to expel the most ter
rible forms of disease. Who would not give it a
trial *
