    Details of the Battle at Carnifes
Ferry.
Gallant Conduct of the Union Troops
The Western Virginia correspondent
of the - Cincinnati Gazette gives that
paper full particulars of the recent vic
tory of General Rosecrans. The letter
is dated "Carnifex Ferry, eight miles
southwest of Sum mersville, Nicholas
county, -- Virginia, Sept. 11." The cor
reSpondent says:
On the last day of our disastrous
summer of '6l General Rosecrans
moved from Clarksburg, to pat him
self at the head of his army, and re
smile active operations. The popular
understanding was, that he meant to
attack Lee at Cheat Momitain Gaps.
The truth, as has heretofore been re
peatedly hinted in this correspondence,
was that he meant to complete the
work to which his strategic plans had
been for a month directed, by engaging
Floyd in the region of our Kanawha
line. Reynolds held Lee in cheek at
the Cheat Mountain; a gap in our lines
had been purposely made at Summers
ville ; Floyd had bit at the bait by
coining in, and now Rosecrans pro
posed to "hit him hard in the head"
be6)re he could run. Such was the
plan.
The writer then describes the march
from Clarksburg to Summersvillc, and
then proceeds : -
Manifestly, the column was now near
the enemy's lines, yet, contrary to the
uniform experience in Western Vir
ginia hitherto, uo attempt whatever
had been made to obstruct the road.
Floyd was known to be advised of our
approach, as his Scouts had been hang
ing around us since we arrived at _Birch
river; and the inference naturally was,
that as he knew we were coining, and
?wide no effort to stop us, he felt secure
'in his position - , and wanted us to attack
Mint. Finally, we arrived at forks in
the road, one branch leading to Cross
Lanes, the other turning down toward
the river, passing a short distance be
hind Cross Lanes, crossing the Gauley
by a ferry, and continuing down on
the other side to Gauley Bridge, thirty
odd miles distant.
Meanwhile Gen. Rosicrans found a
steep hill on the right which seemed
to command the whole country, and,
(lashing up to it, he examined every
point minutely, and watched the pro
gress of the skirmishes with field
glasses.
Suddenly, a musket shot, down the
road, in the direction of Lytle's regi
ment, broke in upon the' peaceful mur
mur. Quickly came another and an
other. Again there was quiet, and
again the straggling fire began. Evi
stoutly, Lyth3's skirmishers were coin
ing up to the enemy's pickets. Mean
time, MeCook's skirmishers had
thoroughly explored their territory,
and had returned, reporting it entire
ly clear. Presently sharper firing was
heard fin. a moment or two in the direc
tion of Lytle's regiment; then it re
lapsed again into the straggling . fire of
pickets. Pushing forward, it was soon
discovered that a strong detachment
of the rebels, probaly a regiment, had
been driven in fimn an exposed camp
on the left of the road, where much
of their camp eqnipage was still left,
though the more - valuable part had ap
parently been removed early in the
day. Thiscamp must have been about
a mile from the forks of the road,
thp.salp,,lnn u la t iVrst_baltell and
Lytle's regiment continued pushing
on down the road which here plunged
into a dense forest, tilled with under
growth, almost impassable for infan
try, and entirely so for cavalry. The
road itself was tolerably good—muddy,
but not deep, and more nearly level
than would have been expected on such
heights—but very narrow, and shut in,
up to the very wagon tracks, with the
jungleof underbrush. Gen.Rose,crans,
who was still in total ignorance or the
exact position of the enemy or of the
nature of their entrenchments, now
sent orders to Gen. Benham that Lytle
should proceed down this road to make
an armed reconnoissance ofthe posi don,
to be supported, if necessary, by the
remainder of Benham's brigade. Ly
tle was still about a mile ahead of the
wt: of the brigade, pushing cautiously
forward with tour companies of skit--
Mishers—A, B, C, and E—in advance.
Suddenly . these skirmishers, compelled
bY r the nature of the ground to proceed
more in a body than would have been
desirable, peering through the bushes
that skirted a short curve in the road,
Ibund themselves about 250 or 300 yards
in front of some sort of fortification,
exactly what it was impossible to see.
The enemy seemed to discover them
about the same. time. For a few mo
ments there was a resumption of the
sharp but scattered firing, then sud
denly there came a terrible crash of
musketry and a perfect storm of lead.
The enemy had opened along his whole
front. The remainder of the Tenth
vas hurried up to the support of the
-four advance companies, and General ' 1
,Benham, who was well up with the ad
vance, sent back orders for the Thir,
,teentb, Colonel Smith, and Twelfth,
:Colonel Lowe, to come rapidly forward.
Meantime, our men stood their ground
manfully, and returned the fire with
spirit. The angry pats of musketry,
sharp as peals of heavy thunder, grow
fiercer, till the sound became one tre
mendous, incessantroar, while speedily
dat least one full battery of heavy field
pieces sent in their swelling, , deep
loned notes to mingle with the crash
ing rattle of the small arms. Forth-
nately, neither the artillery nor infan
try of the enemy fired with much ae
kuraey at this period of the engage
ment, and, though the poor Tenth boys
uffered severely, yet, under the par
tial cover of the trees, their loss was
far less than would have been expected
from the tremendous fire that was. di
reeted upon them.
Col. Smith's 13th now came in on
.the left of the road, but a very short
-distance behind the rear of the Tenth,
and falling over towards Floyd's right
flank, opened out in fine style, the reb
els continuing; a heavy fire of musket
ry, rifles, shells and canister. In the
very thickest of this firing, Col. Lytle
dashed forward toward the natural
glacis in front of the enemy's works,
leading up several of his companies,
apparently with the intention of at
tempting to storm the entrenchments.
As they emerged front the cover of
the woods, the enemy's fire was, of
course, concentrated upon them; and
As they began to reach the ghteis, Col.
Lytle received,4 severe wound in the
leg, while the same shot fatally wound
edhis horso. The poor animal plunged
frantically fbrward; reared up, and
threw the wounded Colonel upon the
field; then, in his death agony, gave
one final plunge clear over the parapet,
and fell inside the enemy's works.—
The gallant Colonel could find no refuge
on the field, except a deserted house,
right between the two fires. There he
lay, during the whole progress of the
battle, with cannon balls crushing
through and around the frail building
which constituted his only sheitt,r.
The Tenth, who had borne them
selves nobly thus flir, discouraged by
the loss of their gallant Colonel, now
became somewhat scattered in the
woods, though they held their position
with tenacity, and kept up an inces
sant firing.
Meantime, Col. Lowe, who had been
some distance behind, came up with
his 12. th, and was, led by Adjutant Gen.
Mastiff into a position• in the woods,
on the left of the road, near the spot
where the Tenth had first•received the
fire. It was the intention that from
this point Col. Lowe should work his
way up under cover, and form on Col.
Smith's right, now threatening the en
emy's extreme right flank ; but in some
way he crossed the road, and came up
a little to the enemy's left, in the very
hottest fire. He was leading his regi
ment up finely, conspicuous at their
head alike for his fine soldierly appear
ance, and the consummate gallantry
he displayed, when, while waving his
sword to cheer them on, he was struck
fair in the centre of the forehead by a
musket ball, and fell headlong from his
horse. Ile died a soldier's death,
bravely, gloriously leading his men
forward; and ho would himself' have
desired no other end for a life that of
late bad been too much embittered by
the earplugs of the ignorant, and the
sneers of the malevolent.
Adjutant General Hartsuff now got
McMullen's howitzer battery into posi
tion, and it began playing on the re
doubt with considerable vigor.
The armed reconnoissance was rap
idly developing into a severe and gen
eral engagement. Gen. Rosencranz's
orders had been positive that nothing
more than a reconnoissance should be
attempted, but Gen. Benham had been
unable, on account of difficulty in the
transmission of orders, to arrange his
brigade in the way which he believed
would have at once carried the works
and support for the regiments already
engaged became necessary. Captain
Snyder's battery was hurried up, and
took a position to the right of the road,
commanding the entire front of the
enemy's works. The batteries, corn
b!ned with the effective support of the
infantry, soon silenced at least two of
the rebel guns, while they began to
serve the others much more slowly„—
Meantime, Gen. Rosencranz, who had
been off on the bill under the hottest
fire, on the right of the road (tl'e ene
my's left.,) directing the movements,
and attempting to gain some idea of
the fortifications, despatched Adjutant
Gen. Hartsuff to bring op the German
brigade. This, together with Seam
moo's, which was held as reserve, had
been standing drawn up in line of bat
tle in the old camp, from which the
rebel regiment had been driven when
the fight began. The battle had now
been raging over an hour (beginning
at 3.4- o'clock in the afternoon ;) large
numbers cf the wounded had been car
ried back to the hospital ; it was known
Rt i oikeirtliTt!'ai ; . " Ey 4 tre"t r t ' -a ' .; shot
dead, and that his regiment was utter
ly cut to pieces; straggling soldiers
had become separated from their regi
ments, and, as always occurs with a
few in any army in a fight under cover,
had worked their way out of danger
and were sneakingly attempting to
evade the disgrace of their retreat by
enormous stories of the fearful slaugh
ter, from the very midst of which they
had so gallantly escaped; the terrific
firing, which some experienced milita
ry men pronounce the heaviest they
ever heard; the mystery of position,
which nobody could understand; the
news of Lowe's death, and the uncer
tainty about Lytle's fate, had all coo
blued to craate a general feeling of de
pression, and a conviction that the
battle was going against us.
Such was the prevailing feeling when I
Adjutant General Hartsuff came gal
loping up, apparently as calm as when
ordering a detail from a regiment for
guard duty, and announced that Col.
McCook's brigade was to be removed
forward to storm the entrenchments,
and that he claimed the privilege of
leading them over the works. Could
you but have seen that German brig
ade as this announcement was made!
Colonel McCook, wild with delight,
dashed up and down the lines, told the
men what they had to do, and deman
ded if they were, ready to do it. And
then such a volley of' cheers as rose in
deafening response to the inquiry,
swelling over, and for a moment fairly
drowning the roar of battle, while the
delighted soldiers waved theft hats and
tossed them in the air, threw their
arms wildly about, and seemed fairly
frantic with joy! McCook. dashing
furiously along the lines, shouting as
he went, in a tone that rtnig like a
trumpet over the field, that be had
tried them before, and he knew what
they would do; that he and the Adju
tant General would lead them up, and
that they would carry these works if
the ditch had to be filled full of dead
Dutchmen before they could get over;
that-the traitors would soon see what
his Dutchmen could do, and thus work
ing the enthusiastic fellows up, till, in
the patriotic frenzy of the moment,
they would have stormed anything;
the Dutchmen yelling, and waving
their swords, and clashing their mus
kets, and flinging up their hats; Hart
suff, calm as ever, but with a look that
spoke his delight far better than words,
already galloping to the head of the
column, the brigade dashing off at an
impetuous double quick; Col. Porsch
ner clamoring because ho was com
pelled to make his regiment wait for
its proper place, and his men starting
off as if they intended to dispute the
van with the Ninth; Porsehner shout
ing in excuse that they wanted to fight
some too, and McCook shouting back
that he knew they would, and that
that was what ho wanted them. for;
Col. Moor riding proudly at the head
of his regiment, his grim face wreath
ed in unwonted smiles; and Hartsuff
' galloping far ahead as the brigade
' came hurrying down—the whole scene
which occepied but a moment, yet
cannot be described in an hour, was,
to many of us at least, the most exci
dog and inspiring sight of a lifetime.
We waited impatiently for the as.
sault, but, alas! as the brigade came
down they were met by peremptory
orders from Gen. Rosencans. He bad
been examining the plan of storming
in front, right over the principal re
doubt of the enemy, which Hartsuff
had originated and begged authority
to carry out, and he had resolved to
countermand the permission to attempt
it,. Prudently, perhaps, be was unwil
ling to risk so many lives in the dread
ful uncertainty of storming a well-de
fended work without a more thorough
reconnoissance; and the brigade was
therefore divided. Pour companies of
McCook's own regiment, the Ninth,
were sent far up on the enemy's left,
where they charged up almost to the
parapet that there constituted the reb
el defence, and had to' be recalled by
the bugle signal. They poured in a
deadly volley, and brought back the
most accurate infi rmation concerning
the main rebel redoubt.
Moor joined Smith, on the enemy's
extreme right, Is 1610 Porschner, great
ly to his disappointment, could not get
into action at all.
And now, while the Germans were
pushing hard on the enemy's left, and
the other - regiments continued to bold
their former positions, Col. Smith, with
the Thirteenth Ohio, had worked clear
around on the right till he was ready,
with a short rush, inside of short mus
ket range, to storm the irregular par
apet that was found to defend the right
Rank. He had his men lying close un
der the brow of the bill, and saw to it
personally that they lay there and did
not expose themselves unnecessarily
while firing. A single rush over a
short exposed bill and ten minutes
hand-to-hand fighting would, in Col.
Smith's opinion, have ended the mat
ter. The fight had now raged between
three and four hours. It was already
so dark that it was almost impossible
to distinguish the forms of men in the
entrenchments. The men had been
up since four o'clock in the morning,
and had made a rapid march of eigh
teen miles, besides doing severe duty
in scouting and skirmishing up and
down steep hills before going into the
engagement. To continue it further
would have been folly, and Gen. Rose
trans therefore ordered the troops to
fall back on our lines.
The Late Dreadful Railroad Accident.
[Froat.ilio Cincinnati Comma 611 of Thutaal.ty.]
. .
. The special train that started on
Tuesday night for the scene of the
railroad disaster, conveyed Drs. Slid
kins. Quinn, Norton and Wood, a special
reporter from the Conimerciul, and a
number of railroad attaches, provided
with every appliance deemed necessa
ry to meet an emergency. At Sey
mour they were joined by Dr. John A.
Warder.
No certain intelligence of the disas
ter could be procured until reaching
the neighborhood of the scene, where
a train of ears, containing one hundred
of the wounded, was found, under the
direction of the physicians and sur
geons from the surrounding country,
who had flocked to the rescue. Taking
on board the city surgeons, it proceed
ed to Seymour, seventy-five miles dis
tant, where the inhabitants, men and
women, turned out to assist in wash
in..° and dressing the mcn.
After the train left, our reporter
proceeded a few rods further towards
the scene of disaster. His first sight
~wuccu OH Llie
some twenty yards from the bridge,
the next that of another car standing
on one end. He then learned that at
ten minutes to nine on the night pre
vious, the train, consisting of six cars,
carrying about two hundred and fifty
of the Nineteenth Illinois Regiment,
Col. Torehin, had broken the bridge
down, under the following circumstan
ces: The engine passed the bridge in
safety, the first car was thrown off the
track, but ran to a place 20 yards be
yond the bridge; but the second car
fell directly into the creek, hind end
downwards; the fourth and fifth ears
run on top of the third, crushing it flat
as a board. In the third ear was Com
pany I, where the greatest mortality
took place. The sixth and- last car,
containing the field officers and their
attendants was not injured.
Those who escaped represent the
scene as full of every conceivable hor
ror, Fires were soon lighted on the
hanks, messengers despatched for as
sistance, and the work of rescue be
gun. All the while the air resounded
with the groans,
and prayers and im
precations of the sufferers. A train
was sent down from Mitchel with a
detachment which had arrived there.
Before daylight eighteen bodies were
recovered in addition to rescuing all
the living. Lieutenant Whotten was
caught by both legs between two plat
forms, and it required three fourths of
an hour to chop and saw him out,
every blow of' the axe causing intense
agony. A colored servant caught in a I
similar, though less painful situation,
was two hours undergoing the opera
tion of rescue. A brakesman, with an
arm and leg both broken, crawled from
under the bottom car to a place of'
safety. The water in Beaver Creek,
over which the bridge passes, was about
three feet deep.
Fortunately, both the regimental
surgeons, their hospital steward and
Lieutenant Kellot, also physieians,
were in the forward car and escaped
without injury Companies I and G
were the greatest sufferers—the latter
entire company, except Lieutenant
Briggs and two corporals, were more
or less injured. The Colonel, who is
an old Russian campaigner, Lieuten
ant Mellott and Fife Major' oom, were
accompanied by their wives. These
ladies not only . rendered great assis
tance in dressing the wounded, but
even tore their under garments off
their persons to make bandages.
Captain B. B. Howard, fbr many
years post masterof Galena, and a
fine soldier of the Mexican war, was
completely crushed, not a whole bone
being loft. After finding the body of
their captain, his company, or the few
who sere left, covered it with green
bushes. An old German ; himself bad
ly hurt, sat at the head of the corpse
telling of Captain Howard's virtues
to all that could listen. One poor fel
low named Clark, saw his brother
drown,
be standing by unable to help.
Of the cause of the disaster we are
somewhat loth to speak. Not a soldier'
on the train, with whom we have con
versed, save one, has any doubts that
the bolts hadnbeen tampered with, and
such, also, is the opinion of many rail
road men and the inhabitants there
abouts. Certain it is, the bolts look as
if they had been filed. There are some
_ . _.
Secession ,sympathisers thereabouts,
with, Whom' the company bad trouble
in times past. Until within two weeks,
the bridges have all been watched.
The Day of Humiliation,
The 26th inst., set apart by the Pres
ident as a day of national humiliation,
is likely to be observed by all the reli
gious denominations. The following
has been issued by the Preachers',Al
- of the Methodist Episcopal
Church, of Philadelphia, to the vari
ous congregations under their charge
in the city and vicinity :
DEAR BRETHREN: The President of
the United States, by request of Con
oTessl • and with becomingreverence
.
for the supreme government of God,
has by proclamation recommended the
observance of the 26th inst., as a" day
of public humiliation, prayer, and fast
ing for all the people of the nation,"
that in this time of national trouble
we may humble ourselves before the
Great Searcher :if hearts, and confess
with penitence, our manifold sins; and
reverently implore His blessing on our
councils and our arms.
We need not say to a people taught,
as you have been, to acknowledge
God in all your ways, and habituated
as you are to the exercises of prayer,
that the intercessions of the Christian
are the best support of the labors of
the patriot; and that in the resources
of religion we shall find the firmness
of faith and elevation of hope which
shall bear us bravely and patiently
through this struggle for the perpet
uation of the Constitution and the
Union.
Cherishing a firm persuasion of the
righteousness of our cause, as that of
law and order, and' maintaining a
strong confidence in its ultimate suc
cess, under the blessing of God, let us
humble ourselves befoi3 Him, meekly
confess our sins as a nation and as'in
dividuals, and around the altars of our
holy religion seek to learn those duties
He has given us to perform, and, with
uplifted hands, invoke the Spirit to an
imate us in their di charge. It is not
in following the multitude to the house
of God and joining in services which
neither the mind weighs nor the heart
feels that the solemn duties of that day
are to be perfimmed ; let us, therefore,
lift our thoughts to the God of all the
earth, and, acknowledging his justice
and wisdom in our national calamities
seek, by the study of his providences
therein, to learn the requisitions of
His will.
It is too common that national fast
days are but indifferently regarded; it
is more lamentable that the Church
sometimes shares this indifference; but
if', when borne on the tide of prosperi
ty and cheered by the voice of peace
in all our borders, we have closed our
gates against the God of the nation,
surely, now in the day of storm and
battle, we should not be slow to call
upon his name. Let us, then, as a
Christian people, suspending all secu
lar business, assemble in our respective
places of worship, at least once, on that
day, to offer fervent supplications to
Almighty God, and so deport ourselves
throughout the day as to make it em
phatically what is designed—" a day
of humiliation, prayer and fasting."
_The Rp.hal Army.
The Washington Sunday Chronicle
of Sunday last contains the following :
"A young man of n telligenco, whose
name is withheld, owing to his posi
tion and probable future movements, I
had an interview with the Secretary
of War yesterday, during which he
made the following statement Was
a resident of Kentucky and appointed
a Lieutenant iu the Federal Army.—
He had occasion to go South, where
he was impressed into the Confederate
army. He was present at the Bull
Run engagement, and has been in the
army in that vicinity up to the time
of his escape, which was a few days
ago. He escaped by getting beyond
the lines, and obtaining the aid of a
farmer who brought him along in his
market wagon covered up in straw.—
Ho says Beauregard has now 186,000
men at Manassas and vicinity. They
are all well clothed, and abundantly
supplied with shoes of good quality, of
which these are a sample. (Showing
a very good article on his feet.) Their
pay is prompt. The Virginia troops
are all well paid in Vir g inia bank bills,
and all the others in gold. The Loui
siana troops were offered bank paper
of that State or gold. The boys put
the matter to vote among themselves,
and decided to take gold, which was
paid them.
Their rations are liberal, and, in
short, to use his own words, " They
have plenty of everything." He was
offered. and declined a colonelcy in the
rebel army. He was yesterday of
fered and accepted a lieutenancy in
our army, in which his father, from
Pennsylvania, is now chaplin."
