Price’s command, and Test him bat swo brigades—one of Arkausians, under Brig. Geu. Mcßae; the other of Missouriaus, uu der Brig. (Jen. Parsons. We copy from the report: f • ihe order of attack directed that I, “in command of Mcliea and Parsons’ brigades, should proceed by the Wst route, assume position, assault and take the Grave Yard Hill at. daylight.” I made my disposition accordingly, and moved at midnight, with Parsons' brigade in front. As my route lay for the greater part of my way across abrupt hills and deep ravines, over which it was utterly impossible to move my artillery during the darkuess, I ordered the pieces to be lett behind until daybreak, ordered details from each battery to accom pany the infantry in order to commaad. the guns which I expected to capture. Finding, when I had gottou within a mile and a half of the position which 1 hud been ordered to take, that my division would arrive on the ground prematurely, f ordered a halt, during which the Lieutenant Gen eral commanding came to aud-remained with the Division until the dawn of day, when the line of march was resumed. Then p vsh itig forward rapidly until my skirmisher* hud became engaged with those us the ene my and within a half mile of his works, the troops were formed into two columns of di visions, Parsons brigade occupying the right, moving in front. The enemy's tire becoming somewhat sharp at this time, the guards who were con ducting the columns took occasion to leave uo perceived j some confusion alii conse quent delay ensued; but another guide Laving been obtained, the head of tbe column soon occupied the position from which the aasault was to be made. A brief halt was here made to give the troops time to recover somewhat from the exu vast iug fatigues consequent upon the’-r march over a succession of almost precipitous ami heavily wooded hills. [ A portion of the report is here devoted to the radical of causes which produced de lay m making the assault as quickly as ord ered and caused some change iu -110 original plan of attack j j loth brigades moved forward ot tie ins tanf, rapidly, steadily, uuliiuching mad in perfect order, under a storm of grape, canis ter and rmnnie balls, which were pour&d upon them not only from the Grave i jrd liiil m their front, but from f Re fortitied hills upon the right and left, bu"h of which Were in easy range. The enemy gave way before the impetuous assault of the attack ing columns, which entering the works al most simultaneously, planted the Confeder ate Hag on the summit of the Grave Yard Hill. Each brigade had done its allotted duty with equal zeal, devotion and gailauv ry, and each is entitled to an equal share of the honor which justly attaches to those who discharge their duty, as those men cid fearlessly, well and successfully. Being in possession of the hill, and find ing that the captured guns had been shot wedged, I directed my Chief of Artillery to bring forward the pieces which [ had left behind. This he did as promptly as the difficulties of the ground would permit, but not. until it was too late for them to be used in the action. Meanwhile a heavy fire was concentrated upon the hill from positions which the enemy still continued to hold, and from the hill side and ravines. under cover of which their sharpshooters delivered a very effective and well directed fire, whilst the gunboat which lay in front of the town kept up an uniutermittiog discharge of its heavy guns. Perceiving at once that the surest way to relieyc my men from the disastrous ef fects of this bailing fire was to aid Gen. Fv gau to take the enemy’s works upon my left, and receiving information at the same time that that gallant officer had been re pulsed in every attempt to assault these works, I sejat to Gen. Parsons au order di recti eg him to move his brigade forthwith to the reinforcement of Geo. login. He replied to the officer by whom I sent the order, that Mcßae (who was by his side at the time) would, with my permission, go to the assistance of Gen. Fagan, whilst his Parsons’j brigade, being the stronger of the two, woould hold tbe graveyard hill. — Before this reply brought back to me, 1 gent another of Ay staff, by direction of the JLt. .Gen. Commanding, to deliver to Gen. Parson* an order similar to the one already sent. Gen. Parsons’ reply having been meanwhile received, auether order was dkeetieg hi* to held thikiU; (He. *• Rae to Teiofoic® Gen Fagan as rapidly as p jsibL with f*i brigade, it »o a oovioii#. however, tLat the Diigadfe had teen so modi: weakened by their heavy io*»rs in killed. Wounded, and particularly in prison erji (the most cf the latter having been cap t'lred in the immediate vicinity of rhe town, whiihet they had gone without orders from mt,) and by ibe straggling of those who were overcome by thirst and the intense beat of ihe day, or who had become dis heartened by the failure of the other assault ing column, that T could not send my cf fective aid to Gen. Fagan without too great ly endangering my own position It was equally obvious that unless such aid could be promptly scut to Gen. Fsgau, the gener al attack upon Helena must tail. It was under these circumstances that and received an order from the Lieut Gen Corud’g to withdraw my division. Iu compliance with this order, my troops were withdrawn to a poiut about four miles from Helena, where they rested for the ni»hf, and resumed the march hither on the morning of the sth. The LieutXJen. Conid’g was himself a witness of the conduct of my division. He saw the alacrity which they advanced to the position to which they had been assigned. — He knows the steadiness and uutalteriug courage with which, in the midst of a dead ly foe, they moved over deep ravines and precipitous hills, obstructed with felled tim ber, into and over the works which they had been ordered to take, driving every thing before them. lie was himself a wit ness of the undaunted bravery and enduring constancy with which, auimated by his owu inspiration, example aud gallant, bearing, they stood unshaken in the very centre of that unoeasiug lire which was hurled against them from guuboais, from forts, from rifle pit®. lam sure ttat, he will pay them the tribute of praise to which their courage and endurance entitle them.

Horrible ifriitaiiq A correspondent of the P.ichmoud W hig, writing from Mathews county, under date of October 10th, furnishes the following ; On Tuesday, the Orb instant, the Federal gunboats, transports aud other vessels,- to the number of twenty, entered the waters surrounding Mathews county, Va., and com-, imdcTd shelling the shores most furiously. At tho same time a large uninber of caval ry , under the command of Col. Spears of the Eleventh Pennsylvania Cavalry, entered the county f rom the direction of Gloucester Pfinf. A battery ot artillery, numbering four pieces, accompanied them , also, a regi ment, of negroes, who were posted near Bridger’s Store, in the upper portion of the county Their cavalry and infantry com meneed to scour the woods and Helds, and to rearch the houses for tho purpose, as they r.vowed, cf catchiDg “Beall's men/’ whom ibey styled “pirates,” and whom they threat ened to hang on the spot where caught—not aware, perhaps that the party whs regular ly organized, and acting under the authori ty of the Navy Department, the officers bolding commissions in the Confederate States Navy On Wednesday morning some of the cav alry chased into the woods Mr. Sands Smith, one of the most, widely esteemed and patri otic citizens of Mathews eo., and over 60 years of age, with the intention of capturing him. During their last raid, they had drag ged him from his own house, destroying at the same time a portion of his property, and off his negroes aDd horses. On the occa sion he had armed himself with a doable barrelled shot gun and on the approach of the Yankees, lirtd ou them, killing one in stantlju He leveled his gun at the other but tbe second barrel missed lire. They then rushed upon him, and seizing him, overpowered by main force, and took iiirn prisoner. They tied a rope to his feet and dragged him to hi- own yard. His daught ers, who have now neither father nor moth er," with prayers and tears upon their knees, implored the officer to be allowed to see. i him and bid him farewell. They were re fused, ai.d their lives threatened if they dared to approach him. He was then tied behiud a buggy and carried four miles be -3 ond Mathews Coart House, on their return to Gloucester Point. While ou the march, Mr. Smith was so ' brutally treated by the private soldiers that ihe asked to see Col. Spears. When that j officer Cc*me up, instead of reproving the »ol j diers, he seized a stick aud beat the prison er over the head. He begged for a glass ol > water which was refused Dim, with the re | mark “that he Would not want ior water long. ! They then, by order of the Colonel, tied his hands behind his back, placed him on horseback, tied a rope around his neck and threw the end of it over the limb of a persist mon tree. The horse was then diif «& fate wader him. The tail was wet swf VOLUME Xi.l-NO. X. heient. and It fe 11 to the ground. He beg ged tor mercy, but- juwn l/on, and Gt.i'SpjHffLrdeired nis men »m$ him, which they did, and he died pierced with Ijve balls. They buried him near the tie**, leaving his feet sticking out of the ground, and placed at the head the follow ing inscription : •‘Warning tod—u bushwackers. Every d—n man we catch with arms in the woods we will hang so high that the birds will build nests in them. So take warning.— Here lies ihe body of an old bushwhacker ' The next morning, after the departure of the Federal*., Mr. Siniib’s was earned to his alrnoist distracted and now orphan family.

Such brutality needs no comment. The Yankees carried off from the county a number of citizens, burned a mill, drove otl a number of cattle, anil destroyed all tbw salt works and lishing seines.

Mr. Smith has two sons and a son-in law in the Confederate army, and his brother has also a son in the 26th V irginia Kegi uient of infantry. The Federal* expressed their determina tion to return shortly and burn the house of every one who dared to t-utertaiu Capt. Beall or any of his men.
