I special dispatch to the Mobile Alvei tiser A Regis-
I ter ;
j Treato, Miss., Oct. 7.—fiaviig driven the ene
i aiy’s skirmishers, the combir.ijd forces of Van
| Uorn and Price attacked them h their entrench'
j ments at 0 o’clock A. M. f on Friiay, driving them
| out, and capturing nine j ecesof artillery, and
' continued repulsing them, slowly driving them
back until night.
Our less was heavy during: th* Jay, Phifer’s and
Green’s brigades suffering most Geu. Martin
wan killed, and Cola. McFarlaid and Irwin, of
Missuuri, seriously wounded,
j At 4 o’clock on Saturday merning, the enemy
| ooened with heavy artillery,which ccasiuud but
j email loss.
j At 8 o’clock A. M. we advanced, capturing sev-
I eral siege guns ; Green’s brigade again offering
| heavily, uud being the fiist to enter the town ot
I Corinth.
I Cabell’s brigtde charged the fort on College
j tlili. Ihe enemy reserved his tire until the brig
, ade was within 30 yards of the fort, ahea he
| - pened a murderous tire upon CabeP, repulsing
| w t th great loss -
Information was then received that the Federal
army at Bolivar, Teun , 20,000 strong, wa« march*
mg, via Pocahontas, on our rear; whereupon a
retreat was otdered, at 10 o’clock A. M., our army
being somew hat disorganized, but bringing off a
part of the captured artillery, and our wounded
end baggage. We then tell back ten miles to
Cypress Creek.
At 8 o’clock Sunday morning, Col. Adams com
menced skirmishing with the Yankee forces fiom
Bolivar, at Pochahontaa, and tell back one mile
when he was reintorced by Whitfield s Legion,
and a section of artillery, and afterwards Maury’s
Division, which was, also, reinforced; but the
whole of this f.irce proved insuificieut, and was
driven back, the enemy burning the bridge and
trapping Moore’s Brigade and 4 pieces of artil
lery.
Van D rn and Villepigue coming up, recap
tured Moore’s brigade, together with a brigade of
their captors and 13 pitces of artillery. The en
emy were then driven back to Matamoras, and
»ur army continued their retreat to Ripley, Miss.,
over the road which our baggage had passed
Our loss in all the engagements is estimated a t
5,000, and that of the enemy much heavier. The
lo>» at Pocahontas wm equal to that at Corimb.
Our loss may be over-estimated, as the stragglers
were numbered by the thousand, and the retreat '
was not very orderly.
We lost 1 pieces of artillery. We captured3so
prisoners at Corinth, who were all brought off.
The enemy made no attempt to follow us fp m
Corinth, nor did the Bolivar force after their
defeat at Da via’ Bridge.
Vun Dorn was conspicuous for bis daring, and
Price, a* usual, felt at home in the leaden .-hower
each of the gallant leaders escaping unhurt.
God. Price’s command was the first in tbe en«
Irencbmentß. Manry’s Division suffered the
heaviest loss. Gen Cabell’s I> vision also suffered
a severe loss, and acted most gallantly.
The enemy fought determinedly, and were
marceuvred splendidly.
Rosencrarz commaud-.d tbe enemy.
Oar army is perfectly safe at R'pley, Miss, and
no fears are entertained of its being followed by
the crippled Y’ank-es. We will be quickly or*,
gan'zed and r.*ady for action.
The killing ot Cols. Rogers, Adams and Gen. |\
Moore, is contradicted. Lieut. Xam Farrington, >
of C«pt. Wade’s battery, of St. Lou a, is among 1
the killed. He fell in tbe heat of battle, while
nobly discharging a sddier’s duty. (

FEDERAL SOLDIERS TO PILLAGE WHEN IN

troops, rem msurating against pillaging. Tbo
f yliowiug extract,trom it will dhow how much *.t id

i know, moreover, iu some rnytauces, where our
soldiers are complained of, they have been insulted
by sneering remarks about “Yuukees," “Norm
ern baroanund/' Lmco n hirelings,” Ae. Sircb
people must seek redress ibrouga tile civil au
thorities, for 1 w.H uot tolerate tosul s to our

justify pillage, but it takes from the officer the
