Army of tiik Potomac. ) Centreville, Pec. 7th, lstil. j The Georgia Hussars were engaged in an affray two nights ag >, that came near resul ting most seriously. Like the Georgians elsewhere however, they Lore themselves with great gallantry, and got the belter of the enemy under circumstances which re flect much credit upon them and their com manding officer, Captain Waring. The Hussars, like the rest of our cavalry, are posted in front, their peculiar province being to watch the enemy, report their movements, and do such scouting duty as may be found necessary. Their duties are labori >us, and frequently dai gerous. On Wednesday night, Captain Waring left his picket camp just after midnight at the head of a detachment of twenty-four men. His object was to surprise and cut off the ene my’s picket at Annandale. It so happened that the enemy had stta trap to surprise him. Some mile or more this side of Au nundalo, at a place where the enemy had never been seen before, day or night, was the spot selected for the ambush. The road passes down a deep cut between two lulls and goes out up the opposite bill through a similar out, and is barely wide enough for a wagon to pass. At the bottom, however, the ground ascends abruptly on either hand, as well as in front and rear, the depression making, as it were, a cvl <le sac at the bot tom of the converging bills. The road here is much wider, and is so boggy that for a space of several yards the horses would mire up in the ice and mud to their knees. On reaching the middle of this mud hole, the advance guaid, eon.-istieg of a corporal and private, camj suddenly against an ob struction which arrested their progress. By the time the remainder of the detachment, which was a few paces in the rear, came np, they had discovered that a telegraph wire, doubled and twisted, had been stretched across the road just high enough to take the horses above the knees, and that another wire had been so place as to take the men under the neck and rake them off. The moment the fact was communicated to Cap tain Waring, he, supposing an enemy to be present, and to assure his men, gave the or der to charge. The instant he gave she or der, the enemy, eighty strong, and posted in the thicket all around them and almost near enough to touch them with the muzzle of the guns, opened lire upon the Hussars. — Private Cuthbert’s horse was shot down, and tivo other horses stumbled over him and fell also. Notwithstanding the confusion that ensued and the terrible disadvantage under which the Hussars were placed, they gal lantry returned the tire, when the enemy, nearly four times as num rous and concealed by the darkness and the thickets, ignomin ously took to their heels. One of them, iu his fright, took the wrong end of the road, and was captured ; and it was from him that the iu formation was received as to their numbers, lie said he took the road which he thought jed to Alexandria. This is a common practice with the Yankees. They always flee iu the direction of Alexandria on the principle, it is supposed, of the rat, which invariably strikes for his hole, how ever distant it may be. Capt. Waring received a flesh wound in the face, the ball about half burying itself in his check as it passed. His over coat has fifteen or sixteen buckshot holes in the cape, and the fastening around the throat was shot away. Another ball grazed his head. Private John McOay Mclntosh received three slight buckshot wounds in the right shoulder. Several shot passd through his clothing. Private S. Clemons received a slight flesh wound in the shoblder. liis hat was per forated by a large musket ball, and bis coat riddled by buckshot. Private Heidt received five buckshot in the calf of the leg, two of which, it is thought, lodged iu the bone. He was hit in four or five other places, but they were mere scratches. One ball entered his saddle. His horse was killed. Lieut. Waldhour lif ted him upon bis horse behind, and succeded iu bringing him off safely. Private Alfred Cuthbert’s horse as al ready stated, was shot under him. Five other horses fell over him, four of which, at the time, wore thought to be killed. Two of them got away and were taken by the enemy next day, and two others strayed off. Lieut. Gordon’s horse fell partially upon him, and it was with difficulty that lie was ex tricated. He escaped with a few bruises. Orderly Sergeant T. H. Dunham was wounded in the temple and somewhere in the body. He was taken off next morning at day-break by the enemy, and is now a prisoner, lie was walking when last seeu about a mile and a half beyond the ambush. Lieut. Waldhour’s gun was hit with a ball where the barrel joins the stock, and a part of the ball lodged in the cape of his coat. He was just raising his piece to fire, and had it across his breast., otherwise he would probably have been killed. A ball passed under private Bird’s chin, and through both sides of his to it collar.—■ liis coat was siDged with powder, so close was the muzzle of the gun to him. A ball lodged iu corporal Dilloa’s saddle. He was aomewhat bruised bv the fall of his horse. Private Ball’s horse fell with and upon him, aud being unable to rise, he was sub sequently taken prisoner. His captor de prived him of his gun and then commanded him to cross his hands preparatory to being tied. He laid the guu down and commenced to fumble in his pockets for a string, when Ball seized the gun and shot him down, and GDally escaped. The loss of the enemy was one killed, two wounded, (one severely,) and one taken pris oner. The enemy had a regiment posted on the hill in advance, which rendered the po sition of the Hussars still more hazardous. The time occupied in the affair did not exceed a few secondt. After delivering their pieces and extricating as many of their friends as possible in the darkness and mud, the Hussars fell back by the road along which they had advanced. They supposed, and very correctly as it turned out, that the enemy was posted in considerable force near the scene of action. They did not know at the time that tho 80 men who fired upon them, had disgracefully tied, notwithstand ing their numbers and advantages. This they learned next morning from the prisoner, who naively explained the circumstance by saying his friends supposed the Hussars would charge upon them as they had been ordered to do by their Captain. They did not seem to know that it was imposstblc for cavalry to charge up a steep hill through the woods, and that at night. The Hussars behaved with great coolness and gallantry, and further il’ustrated the character of our good old State lor courage and daring. They have lost but one man since they came to Virginia, either in battle or from sickness, and that was private Dun ham, spoken of above, No further indications of an advance by McClellan. His foraging parties, which fre quently go out in consideaable force, are sometimes taken for the head of his advanc ing columns. A few days ago our scouts killed four and captured fifteen men, who formed a part of an escort to a foraging train. AH the men taken were newly arrived Ger mans, who knew so little English that it was with difficulty they could he understood. There is reason to believe that. Mr. Lin coln has sent agents abroad, for the purpose of procuring foreigners to come to the Unit ed States to enlist in the Federal service.— Our scouts tell me that it is seldom the Yan kees deliver more than one fire before they incontinently take to theii heels. They not not only run, but they throw down their arms. This they do, I presume, in obe dience to St. Paul’s injunction to the He brews, viz: to lay aside every weight which doth wo easily beset them, in order that they may run the race set before them the more swiftly ! The weather is dry and bracing. More or less ice remains in wet places throughout the day. The mercury descended, a few days ago, to 15 degress above zero.

Wm. 11. Snvorfl, JSrrretary of State: Sir—For nearly three mouths 1 have been confined, a close prisoner, shutout from air and exercise, and denied all communion with Family and friends. “ Patience is said to be a great virtue,” and 1 have practised it to my utmost ca pacity of endurance. 1 am told, sir, that upon your ipse dixit , the fate of citizens depends, and that the sign-manual of the ministers of Louis the Fourteenth and Fifteenth, was not more po tential in their day, than that of the Secre tary of State in 1861. I, therefore, most respectfully submit, that ou Friday, August 23, without warrant or other show of authority, 1 was arrested by the Detective Police, and my house taken in charge by them; that all 1113’ private letters and papers, of a lifetime, were read and ex amined hy them: that every law of decen cy was violated in the search of my house aud person, aud by the Hurveillauce over me. We read in history, that the poor Maria Antoinette had a paper torn from her bosom by lawless hands, and that eveu a change of linen had to be effected in sight of her bru tal captors. It is my sad exjn rienee to re cord even more revolting outrages than that, for during the first days of my imprison ment, whatever necessity forced me to seek my chamber, a detective sentinel stood at the open door. And thus for a period of seven days 1, with my little child, was placed absolutely at the mercy of men without character or responsibility; that during the hrst evening, a portion of these men became brutally drunk, and boasted iu my hearing of tbe “nice times” they expected to have with the female prisoners; and that rude violence was used towards a colored servant girl during that evening, the extent of which L have uot been able to learn. For any show of decorum afterwards practiced to wards me, 1 was indebted to tbe Detective jailed Capt. Denuis. In tbe careful analysis of my papers I de ny the existence of a line I had uot a per fect right to have written, or have received. Freedom of speech and of opinion is the birthright of Americans, guaranteed to us by our Charter of Liberty—the Constitution of the United States. 1 have exercised my prerogative, and have openly avowed my sentiments. During the political struggle, f opposed your Republican party with every instinct of self-preservation, 1 believed your success a virtual nullification of the Constitution, and that it would entail upon us all the direful consequences which have ensued. These sentiments have doubtless been found recorded among my pap an j I hold them as rather a proud record of ni y sagacity. I must be permitted to quote from a letter of yours, in regard to Russell of the London Ti me*, which you conclude with these admi rable words: “Individual errors of opinion may be tolerated, so long as good sense is left to combat them.” By way of illustrat ing theory and practice — here am I, a pris oner iu sight of the Executive Mansion, iu sight ol the Capitol where the proud states men our land have sung their pueans to the blessings of our free institutions. Comment is idle. Freedom of speech, freedom of thought, every right pertaining to the citi zen, has been suspended by what I suppose the President calls a “ Military necessity.” A blow has been struck by this total disre gard of all civil rights, against the present system of government, far greater in its effects than the severance of the Southern States. Our people have been taught to contemn the supremeey of the law, to which all have hitherto bowed, and to look to the military power for protection against its de crees. A military spirit has beeu developed, which will only be subordinate to a Military Dictatorship. Bead history and you will find that the causes which bring about a revolution, rarely predominate at its close, and no people have ever returned to the point from which they started. Even should the Southern States .be subdued aud forced back into the Union (which I regard as im possible, with a full knowledge of their re sources) a different form of government will be found needful to meet the new develop ments of national character. There is no class of society, no branch of industry, which this change has not reached, and the dull, plodding, methodical habits of the poor can never be resumed. You have held me, sir, to a man’s account- ability, aud I therefore claim the right to speak on subjects usually considered beyond a woman’s ken, and which you may class as “errors of opinion.” I offer no excuse for this long digression, as a three months’ im prisonment, without formula of law, gives me authority for occupying even the precious moments of a Secretary of State. My object is to call your attention to the fact; that during this long imprisonment, I am yet ignorant of the causes of my arrest; that mhouse has been seized aud convert ed into a prison b3 7 the Government; that the valuable furniture it contained has beeu abused and destroyed; that during sonic pe riod of imprisonment 1 have suffered greatly for want of proper and sufficient food.— Also, 1 have to complain, that, more recent ly, a woman of bad character, recognized as having been seen on the streets ot Chicago as such, by several of the guard, calling herself Mrs. Ouderdouk. wac placed litre in my house, in a room adjoining mine. In making this exposition, I have no ob ject (if appeal to your sympathies. If the justice of my complaint, aud a decent regard for the world’s opinion do not move you, I should but waste time to claim your atten tion on any other score. [ may, however, recall to your mini, that but a little while since, you were quite as much prescribed by public sentiment here, for the opinions and principles you held, as I am now for mine. 1 could easily have escaped arrest, having had timely warning. I thought it possible that your statesmanship might present such a proclamation of weakness to the world, as even the fragment of a ouce great Govern ment turning its arms against the breasts of women aud children. You have the power, sir, and may still further abuse it. You may prostrate the physical strength, by con fiuciueut in close rooms and insufficient food —you may subject me to harsher, ruder treatment than 1 have already received, but. 3’ou canuot imprison the soul. Every cause \vortli3 - of success has had its martyrs. The words of the heroine Cord;i3’ are applicable here —“ (Test le crime quifait la honte cl non pas Tenchafavde.” My sufferings will afford a significant lesson to the women of the South, that sex or condition is no bul wark against the surging billows of the repressible conflict. ’ ’ The lt iron fuel of power” 1110.3- keep down, but it cannot crush out (he spirit ot resist ance iu a people armed for the defence of their rights; and I tell 3 r ou now, sir, that you are standing over a crater, whose smothered fires in a moment may burst forth.

Let them en joy it while they may, as the payment for tueir fun will he a sorry reconing : A number ot gentlemen—officers, corres pondents and Government agents—have ar rived. I hey relate some curious incidents of the light, and their experiences are inter esting, in so far as they exhibit the various manners of thought and conduct which agi tate the different spectators on the eve of a great battle. They all agree to the beauti ful appearance of the fleet when the cannon ading was about to commence. The transports that lay outside the har bor were crowded with sailors and seamen, who gazed across the water in a agony of expectation, enthusiasm and anxiety. i-Yw men could have been seen on the decks of the war vessels, as they were hidden by the high bulwarks. 1 be \\ abash was the observed of all eyes, as her high masts and immense hull moved slowly towards the shore, and all her ports blazed lire and iron in a moment. Vei / little could he seen, from the transport decks, of the rebel batteries, troops or guns. A few palmetto trees extended in a line an > a beach of sand, with the woods iu the 1 ground, aud some moving bodies behind dark mass of ramparts were all that ted the presence of a large force of mined rebels, who were alreadv riv’ ‘ muzzles of their cannons towards ti. the Wabash. The shells throw n by the Wab; h readily seen exploding among the r and at the first discharge a hundred c; ■ns ran over the waves from ship to ship. The: < were drowned iu a moment by the booming of cannon. Alter the fight, a great deal of curiosity occurred as to who should first plant foot on the rebel soil. There were many suspicions of treachery, and the first boat’s crew to land looked distrusfully about them, as if expecting to be fired upon by some concealed foe. When the sentiment became general that the rebels had deserted their posts, soldiers and seamen thronged upon the island, ami amid the greatest cheering, yelling and fight ing, the rebel banner was hauled down.— 1 hose who had bawled themselves hoarse, before, continued to demonstrate their joy by sciearning, until they had no voices at all ; and it is exceedingly questionable whether, in the whole fleet, there was any one who could give an ordinary regimental order. There was, in fact very little order about the whole transaction. It was no un common sight to sec a private slapping bis Major lustily on the back. A number of privates improvised on the spot a game of leap frog, and some hundreds of men were falling into each other’s arms, and weeping, laughing and shouting by turns. There was not a sick or lame man in the expedition that had not crawled out from his hammock, leaped over the ship’s side into a launch, and joined his comradeson shore. There was something solemn in rais ing the flag of the Union upon the soil where it had been insulted and trodden un der foot. The event was significant, for so shall the whole soil polluted by treason again acknowledge the supremacy of its law* ful banner. The joy felt in the two fi rts bad some thing of sternness and passion about it. — It partook of the feeling of retribution, and the occasion, was hailed by none so cheer fully as tiie Pennsylvanians who were con cerned in the capture and occupation. All the returned gentlemen are iu good spirits, and state that they had rather lose ten years of a lifetime than have failed to witness the bombardment of Port Royal. The Views of the Rebees. —F. W.
