Tilt: Gheat Eastkus. —Captain Walker, of the

The London Telegraph and Star deny that the

The Liverpool Albion says: “ Mr. Clay, of the

Tue Despatch of Troops to Canada. —Tho
Army and Ifary Gazette says; “ Her Majesty’s
Government has‘determined to make an important
increase in the strength of our military three in
North America, and three regiments of infantry
are about to be placed under immediate orders for
Canada. They will probably embark in the Great
Eastern before the middle of September. It is
very likely that, three old and thoroughly efficient
battalions will be chosen. V hatever may be tho
ufloct in some quarters of tho announcement wo
now make, we have little doubt that the publio gene
rally will recognize this step as an act oi wise pre
caution on tlie part of those responsible tor the dig
nity and integrity of the Empire. .
The Globe says: ’’The course taken by the Go
vernment is wise, prudent, and praiseworthy.
With respect to our friends in the Northern States
of America, we are not qute sure that it is our
duty to say anything to justify this step. If an of
ficial inquiry be made, no doubt, it will be satisfac
torily .answered. If the Government of President
Lincoln nsksus what we mean, we ehall, of course,
tell it civilly and politely. But as regards the re
marks which may be made and the construction
which may be put upon this proceeding in the
American newspapers, we do not feel called upon to
say one word. We have nothing to explain, and
no excuse to make. Tho Government has done
what it has done for most excellent reasons, and
the English people will most willingly assent to
it.”
The London Times of Monday, September 2,
gajg ;
-■ These three regiments do not to Canada to
threaten any offensive operations against America.
If they arc'a demonstration, it is a demonstration
in a defensive sense. No one can persuade himself
that the demonstration can be more than a decla
ration of identity between England and Canada for
peace or war. Of the present necessity of this step,
Government will hereafter be called upon to satis
fy Parliament nnd the country.- Wo hope, how
ever, that, whether justifiable or not, Canada
will not take this little contingent we are
about to send as indicative of any more than it
really means; and will not believe that we
expect from her. or intend to discharge towards
her, any further duties than those of an intimate
ally. We are not aware of any single advantage
which Canada gives us, and which, in time of peace,
vi have not from the United States. Canada, od
the contrary, finds her interest in the connection.
While we ask nothing of her but good-will, she
grows under our protection. 11 hat we give, and
most willingly give, to Canada, is our powerful and
inseparable allinnec ; nnd the offensive and defen
sive alliance of England is worth something to any
State. He who attacks Canada declares war
against England, and will call down upon himself
all the might of England; but in the matter of her
own fields and cities, Canada’s duty is to defend
herself. If we know anything of Canada, they
would not only do this as a duty, but demand it as
aright.”

WAR NEWS.
i Details of the Battle at Carnifex Ferry.
OAT,LAST CONDUCT OF THE UNION TnOOl’S,
The Western Virginia correspondent of the Cin
cinnati Gazette gives that paper full particulars of
the recent victory of General Rosecrans. Tha
i letter is dated “ Carnifex Ferry, eight miles south
west of Summersrillo, Nicholas county, Virginia,
Sept. 11.” The correspondent says:
On the last day of our disastrous summer of ’6l
General Rosecrans moved from Clarksburg, to put
himself at the head of his army, and resume active
operations. The popular understanding was. that
he meant to attack Lee at Cheat Mountain Gaps.
The truth, as has heretofore been repeatedly hinted
in this correspondence, was that he meant to com
plete the work to which his strategic plans had
been for a month directed, by engaging Floyd in
tbo region of our "Kanawha lino. _ Reynolds held
Lee in cheek at tha Cheat Mountain; a gap in our
lines had been purposely made at gummersville;
Floyd had bit at the bait by coming in, and now
lloscerans proposed to “ hit him hard in the head ”
before he could run. Such was the plan.
The writer then describes the march from Clarks
burg to Summcrsvillo, and then proceeds:
Manifestly, the column was now near tho ene
my’s lines, yet, contrary to the uniform experience
in Western Virginia hitherto, no attempt whatever
had been made to obstruct the road. Floyd.was
known to b© advised of our approach, as his scouts
had been hanging around us sinco we arrived at
Birch river; and the inference naturally was, that
as he knew we were coming, and made no effort to
stop ns,‘he felt securo in his position, and wanted
us to attack him. Finally, we arrived at forks in
the road, one branoh leading to Cross Lanes, the
other turning down toward the river, passing a
short distance behind Cross Lanes, crossing tho
Gauley by a ferry, and continuing down on tho
other side to Gauley Bridge, thirty-odd miles dis
tant.
Meanwhile Gen. Rosecrans found a steep hill on
the right which seemed to command the whole
country, and, dashing up to it, he examined every
point minutely, and watched the progress of the
skirmishers with field glasses.
Suddenly, a musket shot, down the roßd, in the
direction of Lytle’s regiment, broke in upon the
peaceful murmur. Quickly oamo another nnd
another Again there was quiet, and again the
straggling fire began. Evidently, Lytle’s skirmish
ers were coming up to the enemy’s pickets. Mean
time, McCook’s skirmishers had thoroughly ex
plored their territory, and had returned, reporting
it entirely clear. Presently sharper firing was
heard for a moment or two in the direction of
Lytle’s regiment; then it relapsed again into tho
straggling fire of pickets. Pushing forward, it was
soon discovered that a strong detachment of the
rebels, probably a regiment, had been driven in
from an exposed camp on the left of the road, whore
much of their camp equipage was still left, though
the moro valuable part had apparently been re
moved early in the day. This oatisp must have
been about a mile from the forks of the road, where
the column had first halted and formed in line of
battle.
Lytle’s regiment continued pushing on down the
road which here plunged into a dense Forest, filled
with under-growth 7 almost impassable lof infantry,
and entirely so for cavalry. The road itself was
tolerably good—muddy, but not deep, and moro
nearly level than would have been expected on
such heights—but very narrow, and shut in, up to
the very wagon tracks, with the jungle of under
brush. General Rosecrans, who was still in total
ignorance of the exact position of the enemy t»r of
the nature of their entrenchments, now sent orders
to General Denham that Lytle should proceed down
this road to make an armed reconnoissanco of the
i position, to be supported, if necessary, by the re
mainder of Benham’a brigade. Lytle was still about
a mile abend of the rest of the brigade, pushing
cautiously forward with four companies of skir
mishers —A, B, C, and E—in advance. Suddenly
these skirmishers, compelled by 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, found themselves
about 250 .or 300 yards in front of some sort of for
tification, exactly what it was impossible to see.
The enemy seemed to discover them about the
same time. For a few moments there was a re
sumption of the sharp but scattered firing, then
suddenly there came a terrible crash of musketry
and a perfect storm ofleud. The enemy had opened
along nis whole front. The remainder of the Tenth
was hurried up to tho support of the four advance
| companies, and General Denham, who was well up
i with the advance, sent hack orders for the Thtr
: teenth, Colonel Smith, and the Twelfth, Colonel
j Lowe, to come rapidly forward. Meantime, our
j men stood their ground manfully, and returned tho
: fire with spirit. Tho angry peals of musketry,
1 sharp as peals of heavy thunder, grew fiercer, till
| the sound became one tremendous, incessant roar,
• while speedily at least one full battery of heavy
! field pieces sent in their swelling, deep-toned notes
i to mingle with the crashing rattle of the small
i arms. Fortunately, neither the artillery nor in
j fnntry of the enemy fired with much accuracy at
: this period of the engagement, and, though the poor
I Tenth boys suffered severely, yet, under the partial
i cover of the trees, their loss was far less than would
> have been expected from the tremendous fire that
< was directed upon them.
Colonel Smith’s Thirteenth now came in on the
I left of the road, but a very short distance behind
Uu the Tenth, and falling over towards
j Floyd’s right flank, opened out in fine Btyle, the
] rebels continuing a heavy fire of musketry, rifles,
: shells, and canister. In the very thickest of this
: firing, Colonel Lytle dashed forward toward the
! natural glacis in frontof the enemy’s works, leading
; up several of his companies, apparently with the
j intention of attempting to storm thooutreuenments.
; As they emerged from the cover of tho woods, the
: enemy’s fire was, ot course, concentrated upon
; them; nnd as they began to reach the glacis, Cot.
Lytle received a severe wound in tho leg, while tho
i some shot fatally wounded his horse. The poor
j animal plunged frantically forward, reared up, and
| threw the wounded Colonel upon the field; then,
, in his death agony, gave one final plunge clear over
j 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 tho
: two fires. There he lay, daring the whole progress
: of the battle, with cannon bulls crashing through
and around the frail building which constituted his
only shelter.
The Tenth, who had borne themselves nobly
thus far, discouraged by the loss of their gallant
Colonel, now became somewhat scattered in the
woods, though they held their position with tenaci
ty, and kept up an incessant firing.
Meantime, Colonel Lowe, who had been some
distance behind, came up with his Twelfth, and
wae led by Adjutant General Hartsuff into a posi
tion in the woods, on tho left of the road, near the
spot where the Tenth had first received the fire. It
I was the intention that from this point Col. Lowe
: should work his way up under cover, and form on
j Col. Smith’s right, now threatening the enemy’s
extreme right flank; but in some way he crossed
the road, and came up a little to the enemy’s left,
in the veTy hottest fire. He was leading his regi
ment up finely, conspicuous at their head, alike for
his fine soldierly appearance, nnd 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. He died a soldier’s
death, bravely, gloriously leading his men forward;
and he would himself have desired no other end
for n life that of late had been too much embitter
ed by the carpings of the ignorant, and the sneers
of the malevolent.
; Adjutant General Ilartsuff now got McMullen’s
; howitzer battery into position, and it began playing
! on the redoubt with considerable vigor.
| The armed reconnoigsance was rapidly developing
! into a severe and general engagement. General
j Rosecrans’ orders had been positive that nothing
| more than a reconnoissanco should be attempted,
! but General Bcnham 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 tho
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,
| combined witli the effective support of the infantry,
| soon silenced at least two of the rebel guss, while
| they began to serve the others much more slowly.
| Meantime, General Rosecrans, who had been off
! on the hill under the hottest fire, on the right of the
; road (the enemy’s left), directing the movements,
: and attempting to gain some idea of the fortifica
| tions, despatched Adjutant General Hartsuff to
: bring up the German brigade. This, together with
: Scauimon’s, which was held as reserve, had been
standing drawn up in line of battle in the old
j camp, from which the rebel regiment had been
1 driven when the fight began. The battle had now
been raging over an hour (beginning at 3$ o’clock in
j the afternoon); largo numbers of the wounded had
j been carried back to the hospital; it was known
that Colonel Lowe was killed, and it was also re
ported that Colonel Lytle was shot dead, and that
his regiment was utterly cut to pieces; straggling
soldiers had become separated from their regiments,
and, as always occurs with a few in any army in a
light under cover, had worked their way outof dan
ger and were speakingly attempting to evade the
disgrace of their retreat by enormous stories of the
fearful slaughter, from the very midst of which
they had so gallantly escaped; tho terrific firing,
which some experienced military men pronounce
the heaviest they ever heard; the mystery of posi
tion, which nobody could understand; the news of
Lowe’s death, and tho uncertainty about Lytic’s
fate, had all combined to creato a general feeling
of depression, and a conviction that the battle wa3
going against us.
Such was the prevailing feeling when Adjutant
General Hartsuff came galloping up, apparently as
culm ns when ordering a detail from a regiment for
guard duty, and announced that Colonel 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 brigade as this announce
ment was made! Colonel McCook, wild with de
light. dashed up and down the lines, told the men
what they had to do, and demanded if they were
ready to do it. And then such a volley of cheers
as rose in deafening response to the inquiry, swell
ing over, and for a moment fairly drowning the
roar of battle, while the delighted soldiers waved
their hats and tossed them in tho air, threw their
arms wildly about, and seemed fairly frantic with
joy ! McCook, dashing furiously along tho linos,
shouting as he went, in a tone that rung like a
trumpet over the field, that he had tried them be*
fore, and he knew what they would do; that he
and the adjutant general would lead them up, and
that they would carry these workß if the
ditch had to be filled full of dead Dutchmen
before they could get over; that tho traitors
would soon see what his Dutchmen could do, and
thus, working the enthusiastic fellows up, till, in tho
patriotic frenssy of the moment, they would have
stormed anything; the Dutchmen yelling, and
waving their swords and clashing their muskets,
and flinging up their hnts; Hartsuff, calm as ever,
hut with a look that spoko his delight far better
than wordg, already galloping to too head of the
column, the brigade dashiDg off at an impetuous
double quick; Col. Porschner clamoring because he
was compelled to make his regiment wait for its
proper place, and his men starting off as if they in
tended to dispute the van with the Ninth; Porschner
shouting in excuse that they wanted to fight some
too, nnd McCook shouting back that he knew they
would, and that that was what he wanted them for;
Col. Moor riding proudly at the head of his regi
ment, his grim face wreathediD unwonted smiles;
and Hartsuff galloping far ahead os the brigade
came hurrying down—the whole scene, which oc
cupied but a moment, yet cannot bo described in nu
hour, wns, to many of us nt loust, the most exciting
and inspiring eight of n lifetime.
We waited impatiently for the assault, but. alas !
ns the brigade crime down they were met by pe
remptory orders (from Gen. Rosecrans. He had
been examining tho plan of storming in front, right
over tho principal redoubt of the enemy, which
Hartsuff had originated anil begged - authority to
carry out, and he had resolved to-countermand the
permission to attempt it. Prudently, perhaps, ho
was unwilling to risk so many lives in the dreadful
uncertainty of storming a well-dofcnded work
without a more thorough reconnoissanco ; nnd tho
brigade was therefore divided. Four companies of
McCook’s own regiment, tHP Ninth, were sent far
up on the enemy’s loft, where they charged up al
most to the parapet that there constituted the re
bel defence, and nnd to bo recalled by the bugle
signal. They poured in a deadly volley, and
brought back the most accurat© information con
cerning the main robel redoubt.
Moor joined Smith, on the enemy's extreme
right, while Porschner, greatly to his disappoint
mont, could not got into action at all.
And now, while the Germans were pushing hard
on the enemy’s left, and the other regiments con
tinued to hold their former positions, Col. Smith,
with the Thirteenth Ohio, Had worked dear around
on the right till ho was ready, with a short rash,
inside ofshort musket range, to storm the irregular
parapet that was found to defend the right flank.
He had his men lying close under the brow of the
hill, and saw to it personally that they lay there
and did not expose themselves unnecessarily while
firing. A single rush over a short exposed hill nnd
ton minutes hand-to-hand fighting would, in Col.
Smith’* opinion, have ended the matter. 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 entrench
ments. The men had been up since four o’clock
in the morning, and had made a rapid march of
eighteen miles, besides doing severe duty in scout
ing and skirmishing up and down steep hitls before
going into the engagement. To continue it fur
ther would have been folly, and General Rose
crans therefore ordered the troops to fall back on
our lines.

rjIHE WEEKLY PRESS.
THE WEEKLY PRESS
Has been established on a secure and permanent founda
tion ; but it Ib, in reality, a marvellous example of tfca
degree of favor which a rightly-conducted
LITERARY, POLITICAL* AND NEWS JOURNAL
Can receive at the hands of a liberal and enlightened
Public. Our most grateful thanks are tendered for Dm
patronage already bestowed upon hb, and we shall Span
no efforts which may serve to render the paper even nor*
attractive, useful, and popular in the future.
The general features'of the Paper, in addition to Its
POLITICAL AND NEWS DEPARTMENTS,
WM fe© POETRY, SKETCHES, BIOGRAPHY, and Oil
ginal and Selected TALES* chosen Tor their leseoniof

Deeming Purity of Morals tbe great safeguard of print*
happineßß and public prosperity, we shall carefully ex

be Objected to on the score of improper tendency. TM
fields of pure Literature afford sufficient material to
make an
ACCEPTABLE FAMILY NEWSPAPEB,
Containing all the elements of excellence, without a alngU
objectionable line; and tire proprietor of THE WEEKLY
PRESS may justly claim that no head of a family need
hesitate to let its columns go under the notice of tap
member of his Household.
THE POLITICAL COURSE
Of THE WEEKLY PRESS need not be enlarged upon
here. Independent, steady, and fearless, it haa battled
unwaveringly and zealously in defence of THE RIGHTS
OF THE PEOPLE against Executive Usurpation, and
Unfair andT yratmieal Legislation } ever declaring and ad

and that the intelligence and patriotism of onr Citizens
will always be preservative o a wise, jußt, and salutary
Government. These are the principles to which THE
WEEKLY PRESS has been committed, and to these It
