(Continued from First Page.} Two regiments from Georgia nnd South Carolina had abandoned Roanoke Island. on the North Ca rolina couft, blown up their buttery, and gone home. The rebel Congress met at Richmond on the ISth, but transacted no business, being without a quorum. The- rebels arc strengthening their main battery at Sewell's Point, anticipating an attack. The Battle at Gauley Bridge. The correspondent or the Cincinnati Commercial with General Rosecr«ns : command, writes thus: At daybreak on the morning of the 10th, Colonel De Villiers crossed the New river with the first de tachment from his regiment* the Eleventh Ohio. The rixfr was swollen and rapid, but in spite of the difficulties which it presented, the colonel hnd passed over, before noon, nearly the whole available force under his command. At twelve o'clock he drove in the enemy's pickots* planted our flag in their breastworks, and posted guards all along the ridge overlooking our communications. In driving in tne pickets, John Roe, private, of Company A, pressed forward far in advance of his companions, 3&d received a ball from a Mississippi rifle through his head, killing Mm instantly. It required a long, extended line of sentinels to guard the ridge of its whole length, consequently the posts in each were weak and widely separated from their reserve. At eight o'clock in the evening the enemy in full force made sn attack upon those outposts, driving soma of them back over the ridge, while others held their position until the morning. Satisfied with this dash, and not waiting the advance of our reserve, the enemy withdrew to their camp. In the morn ing Col. Do Villiers, with a part of his regiment ami a detachment from the Second Kentucky, made a bold movement towards tho enemy's camp, ex changing fire with their outposts and still advanc ing. A ball grazed the coloners car slightly abrad ing the ekin. The enemy withdrew at Ins approach, abandoning their tents and falling back to their principal encampment at Cotton Hill. Thus the first aggressive movement was successfully made by the Eleventh Ohio Regiment, supported in the latter part of the engagement by reinfi>f66tß46tS ffOUl the other two regiments of Gen. Cox's brigade, the First Second 2d Kentucky. Gen, Cox took the initia tive, and fairly and alone drove the enemy from his position by a bold movement across tho river at iU n-uhsi pemt, end up precipitous ascents, which would have discouraged any less enthusiastic sol diers than those under his command, and these, too, stimulated to heroism by the example and pre sence of Colonel Do Villiers. The Eleventh lost eight men in kiiicd nnd missing, one severely wounded, and ten slightly injured. Robert Bache lor. of Yellow Springs, received two mortal wounds while holding his position against overwhelming odds. Before going into action he said that he had henTdSP much of the cruelties practised by the ene my upon their prisoners, that he was determined he would never surrender. * Col.

Tq th Editor pf the Pm* ■: It is justly remarked in an able journal of this city, that the case of the Caroli?ie covers every point likely to arise out of the recent capture of tho TfWl cpypys to France and England. Indeed, it is difficult to conceive how the latter country can possibly draw a distinction between the coses, un less it be in favor of the forbearance of the Ame rican commander, who. had he been so disposed, would have been fully justified, on every principle of public law, in seizing the British ship as his prize, engaged, as she was. in giving convoy and protection to our rebels, and carrying her into the nearest American port, for lt is very certain that the authorities of England ap plied the very same principle to the Carolines en gaged. as she alleged, in giving convoy and protec tion to her rebels, with tho only difference that, after kilting and maiming one-third of her defence less crew and passengers, they first set the vessel on fire, and then sent her tumbling over the Falls of Niagara for condcnmntion. But the journal referred <o is in error in saying that the case was made the subject of a correspond ence between our Government and that of Great Britain, commencing immediately after the- occur* rence, in December, 1537, and 11 continued, with some interruption, until the close of Van Bnren’s Administration, March 3,1841. r ' This would im ply protracted negotiation, and would weaken the ground which it is contended our Government is imperiously called upon now to take, and take promptly. What our Government should do is im mediately to adopt the act of Capt. Wilkes as its own, by promoting that officer, without waiting to hear from England, just as slio promoted Col. McNab without waiting to hear from us. 7 la gland, in her'heart, would respect us for it. She would respect U 5 the from tho very fact that we are At present deprived of a portion of our power, by the revolt of a portion of our empire ; for it is precisely what her high spirit would lead her to do in a like contingency. 32-vat ottr Quttfh trn rebels would, in their hearts, respect us for it. and learn more than ever to admire and fear the great Government and nation whose power they have dared to defy. The simple facts, however, in reference to the negotiation between the two Governments, growing out of the case of the Caroline , may as well be stated, and can be stated in a very few words. It was a considerable time before the case was brought to the official notice of our minister in Lon don. When at last he received his instructions from the State Department, accompanied with an immense mass of testimony; he immediately, or a 3 soon after as the testimony could be arranged, ad dressed an official despatch to the British Govern ment stating the case, transmitting tho evidence, denouncing the act in strong terms, and demanding reparation in the name of the Government of the United States. His note was dated the 23d of May, 1838. On the 6th of June, 1833, Lord Palmerston ad dressed to Mr. Stevenson a simple acknowledg ment of his note, according to custom, of course in courteous terms, merely adding that her Ma jesty's Government would not fail to give it their attention. Xa further answer, hewerer, jibs from J.*rd Palmerston, and, after a good deal of delay, our minister resumed the sublet, and continued, from time to time, to press the udroit Foreign Secretary to give him one. Stiii no answer came. It may well be imagined, by those who knew Mr. Steven son, how his quick blood was stirred, and how he fretted and chatcil at the delay. “What am I to do.ilrl I’ve exhausted the English lihg.m : P„l -merston won’t say a word, air ; and Forsyth leaves the whole thing to me, sir.’’ These, and such like exclamations of an impatience, very natural under the c'rcam. B b.ncc3. UudJuJ with an ever-genialaad cordial nature, will be readily called to mind by those who were in the habit of frequenting the hos pitable roof of the Americun Legation in London at that day. Still, no answer came from Lord Palmerston. His lordship, if not as deaf, was os dumb as the in mates of the large house in Broad street above Fine. Mr. Stevenson, of course, kept our Govern ment constantly informed that he had nothing to te/l them, and as constantly received nothing front them ni refiir/t, At last, on the 11th of Septem ber, 1850, came a despatch to our minister from our own foreign secretary, at Washington, quite as ac complished and adroit, be it observed, as his lord ship in Downing street, whom the English Oppo sition papers called “ Cupid.” It was to the effect that no further instructions were ncecssary for again bringing to the notice of her Majesty’s Go vernment the case of the Caroline; because Mr. Fox, the British minister, at Washington, had led him (Mr. Forsyth) to believe that the British Government would speedily answer his (Mr. Stevenson’s) application l This, be it re membered, WAS At tho ond Of nearly shrlcct months from the date of Mr. Stevenson's note to Lord Palmerston of the 22d May, 1838 ! But still no answer came, and when Mr. Van Dnren’e Administruiion reached its close, on the 3d of March, 1841, the files of the United States Legation in London, however luminous with tho elaborate, and always courteous (except now and then on tho snbjcct of slavery) despatches and notes of the noble Viscount at the head of the Foreign Affairs of England, were dark as the oracles of old, and might equally have been eonsuited in vain for an answer, on tho subject of the case of the Caroline, so far, at least, as te convoy to tho curious inquirer the faintest idea of the views of her Majesty’s Go vernment with reference to that remarkable case. In plain English, no answer was ever received j and the case, like other curious cases in history, was just allowed by both Governments to go quietly to sleep, and has slept to this day. It was partially fanned into life b; a little pntehing and mending in the Ashburton treaty of 1812, which just meant anything and nothing. It has since slept the lohg sleep of death, and neither Government has felt disposed to disturb it. Bat the narrative, which may bo retied on, at least goes to show that, instead of a protracted cor respondence between the Governments, continued to the dose of Hr. Van Btitfeii’s term, there was In fact no correspondence at all, if correspondence means reeijirocai intercourse in writing. There was certainly no negotiation. We remonstrated in strong and indignant language) and had good cause for doing ao, in view of the circumstances of enor mous outrage perpetrated on the deck of the Caro thtr. exceeding a hundred fold anything occurring on the deck of the Taut. England mu deaf to our remonstrance, and heaped honors on the head of the perpetrator of the outrage. Be it ours now to turn a like deaf ear to any remonstrance she may tniihe, if she makes a&y, and In like manner sig nalize the spirited act of the accomplished officer who has vindicated the majesty of the stars and stripes, and rendered such service to bur cause. There is yet a little episode to the foregoing nar rative, which it may not be out of place to men tion, and without which, indeed, it would not per haps be quite complete. It was made public seve ral years ago, but will bear condensing now. Towards the latter part of 1810, or in the early part of 1841, Lord Palmerston was questioned one night in the House of Commons as to the state of llie negotiation with the American Government, growing out of the case of the Caroline, and what .answer had been returned to our remonstrance. The noble Viscount promptly replied that Her Majesty's Government had justified and approved the act of the British authorities in Canada, and that lie hod communicated its approval to the American Minister in London! It may again be woU ima gined by those who knew Mr. Stevenson, with wlmt nmaaeinont, amounting to consternation, such an announcement met his eye next morning in the pro ceedings of Parliament. A prompt interchange of autograph private notes took place between the rcrrtcentiiiivee of tbe two Government?! confided only to, and delivered by, confidential hards; our minister protesting that he had never received any such communication, the Foreign Secretary insisting with equal earnestness that he had made it. The correspondence was conducted, on both sides, with tho restrained temper nnd spirit, nnd in tha becom* ing language, of gentlemen, but was none the less earnest on both sides, and at one moment was not without a feeling of anxiousness. It turned out, at the end of several days, and after the interchange of several pretty long notes, that Lord Palmerston was referring to his first informal interview with Mr. Stevenson, on the first reception of the news in London, in the course of which he Mid, (as was admitted by the latter,) that ■t p we re monstrated they would justify, and he had chosen to consider that first unofficial declaration, in ad vance of the official complaint, and in advance of iht- as equivalent to a formal official justi fication of the act by the British Government, after receiving both . Certain it is, and there Mr. Ste venson was perfectly right, that not a lino of repty was ever received by him to his note of the --M of May, 1838, with all its accompanying voluminous documentary testimony. The incident undoubtedly showed tho unwilling ness of the English Government to make a case with our own if they could possibly belp It, while Lord Palmcrrion equally saw the necessity of satisfying the representatives of the English people, if he could possibly and honorably do so; and certainly he played Ms cards with remarkable dexterity and success. By ultimately allowing the whole thing to sleep, and virtually giving up the case, our Go vernment equally manifested its sense of the un tea&bleiiess of its position, looking to the broad fact that ire u-ere the aggressors, by transporting, in an American vessel, men and munitions of war to aid the rebellious subjects of the Queen of Eng land. Such was the whole case. It meets, in every particular, the case of the seizure, by a gallant officer of the United States navy, of two of the lenders of our rebellion, found on board a British ship, and taking them by force from her deck, ns his prisoners, their liberty a forfeit, for tho time being, to the offended majesty of the laws of tho United States. Let England, then, call to mind the case of the Caroline. If she is wise, it may be safely predicted that she will not remonstrate. If she should, let our Government base its decision on tho same com. Much has been said with reference to the Laws of Nations, and numerous high authorities have been cited. All go to show that the act of Captain Wilkos was not only perfectly defensible, but was made his imperative duty, by every principle of international law. But if the “ Law officers of the Crown, ,J who sometimes say and do queer things, a? witness a comparatively foment opinion of tkeira on the subject of the New England Fisheries, should happen to differ from these authorities—supposing such a thing to be possible —then let us recall to the recollection of Efiglftttd that fftlttOUS QXtVfLGt from the speech of her own Lord Chancellor Thur low, in the House of Lords, in February, 1783, in answer to Lord Loughborough. It was while the preliminary articles of peace between Great Britain and the United States, nnd France and Spain were under discussion. “The learned lord," said the Lord Chancellor, “had resorted to the lucubrations uud fancies of foraign write*#, and gravely referred their lord ships to Swiss author?, for im explanation of the prerogative of the British Crown. He. for his part rejected all foreign books on the point before them. However full of ingenuity or speculation Mr. Vat tet or Mr. PuffouJorf might be on tho law of hA tions and other points, which neither were, or could be. fixed by any solid and permanent rule, he de nied their authority—he exploded their evidence, when they were brought to explain to him what w as, and what was not, the prerogative ul the British Crown." So, let us say to Britain, if the law officers of the Queen of England undertake to favor us with their Ll liteubPAlfong and fanciesderived from theip own interpretation of the law' of nations, if intend ed to put Captain Wilkes in the wrong, “ wc deny your authority, wc explode your evidence, when brought to explain to us what is, tmd what is not, the high prerogative of the Government of this great Federal Union, on a question involving the claim of any nation in Christendom to extend to firmed rebels and traitors to its authority, the shel ter and convoy of her flag," and let Britain make the most of it. The civilized world will approve our course. Ax American Citizen. November 20, 1861 Letter from CoJ. D. B. Birney’s Regiment. Company 0,23 d Regiment Pa. Yols.. ) Camp Graham, near Washington,D. C., > November K», IHIil.) [Correspondence of The Press.] This regiment, Twenty-third of Pennsylvania volunteers, was, as most of your readers will doubtless remember, orguulzcl on the busts of tbo old Twenty-third, which rendered considerable service under the three-months requisition. Our present colonel (D. B. Birney) was lieutenant colonel of the old Twenty-third, under Colonel Dare. It is needless to inform your readers that this regiment was raised for three-years service more rapidly than any other raised in our patriotic city, perhaps I am not going too far when I include the State. The old boast of the Roman general (Pompey), that he could raise legions by a mere stamp of his feet, seemed to have been literally re alized by Colonel Burney* Brave, experienced, and patriotic men flocked arsund the rendezvous be opened, eager to rally under his command. This was owing entirely to the high reputation he won during the short hut trying times ho was lieutenant colonel in the old Twenty-third; and well has ho proved, since it has been the fortune of Company 0 to come under his command, the justice of the merit bestowed on him. It is not surprising, then, that instead of 1,016 men our regiment should be increased, as it lias been, to a little short of 1,600, which figure it will roach in a very few dnyy. With but few exceptions, Col. Birney has the unbounded confidence and entire affection of the whole regiment. Of this he may feel proud, and the friends of the men ai borne xuuy feel assured that those ibey cure for are undergeneroua and able control. Our lieut. colonel (Wilhtm) is an experienced and able soldier and possesses the confidence and esteem of the en tire regiment. T may add that nil our field officers are fully competent to fill the positions they have been entrusted with. Of the medical and commis sary departments I shall have something to say in a subsequent letter, as llicy deserve more than A mere passing notice. The first has its hands full, the latter will soon have its pockets full, unless in terfered with a la mode McClellan. Until within iho lust fow d»iyw, tho division which the twenty third is attached has been under the commnnd of Major General Buel. AVe are now under tho com mand of Gen. Key, by the transfer of Bucl to a command in Kentucky, lien. Key is a brother, as Hearn, of the victim of the Sickles tragedy. Ho inspected our brigade day before yesterday, on the fields near Georgetown, ffiUCb with the general appearance and good discipline of the different regiments composing it. Our regiment turned out fourteen companies, the fifteenth being on grand guard duty. The change of commanders has given general satisfaction. After the roviow wo were put through a number of field manoeuvres un der the immediate orders of the General himself, who not only gave the commands himself, but also explained each movement in detail to both officers and men. We are anxious to know what disposition is to be made of us during the coming winter. The good people at home, in their comfortable houses, will find it diffi cult to realize how utterly uncomfortable it is, these cold, frosty nights, to be compelled to lay on the damp ground, with nothing over you but a thin covering of canvas. Sleep is almost impossi ble, although one may be overcome by a deep feel ing of drowsiness. Many pass the entire night at the cook’s fire. We have no particular desire to go into winter quarters this sido of tho Potomac, And are not yet in despair of wintering in Richmond, or even further South. The ground where we are now encamped is very low and unhealthy. There arc many cases of chills and fever, which, with proper care, might bejbrought under control. The hospital arrangements arc, however, so miserably un fit that the remedy is almost as bad us the disease ; for, whilst taking quinine, and even strong mercurial medicines, the patient is compelled to lay on the damp ground, thus laying the seeds of rheumatism and other diseases to ruin and disable the victim for life | and all this in a friendly country, and within three miles of Washington! But enough of this for the present. Yesterday, our paymaster visited our camp for tho purpose of paying the regiment tha pay due us. H© succeeded in paying ten compa nies ; the othor five companies will bo paid to-day. Mynextsoon, Rank and File. Lieut. Col. Hawley, of the Seventh Regi ment Connecticut Volunteers, iu a communication to the Evening Press, gives the honor of first tafidtog <m lb? §vi! <?f §<?uth Carolina to that regi ment ; “ Our Seventh Regiment landed first, and bad the honor of taking charge of the fort (Fort Walker) over night. And besides, the companies of Oapts. Francis and Rodman, under charge of your huinhlu servant, did the advanced picket duty lor the night. Friday, the regiment was sent about five miles in a westerly direction, on an armed re connoissancc to Seabrook’s Ferry, or Landing. We caught no rebels, but found a large quantity of pro visions, &?. “ The enemy ran in the extremoat fright, and abandoned almost everything but the clothing on them. It is as warm as June. I have oranges in niy pocket picked at Seabrook's. The palmotto is plenty about us, the leaves are green on all the trees, the cotton-deids are white, waiting for the second picking, and sweet potatoes are plenty. There is scarcely a white man loft on the island. The negroes are jolly, and after the first inquiring look greet us with great pleasure, run to bring Water, and are wonderfully tioilfiy Ifi crying L God bres you, Mass’r.’ Their masters told them to 4 dodge’ when we came; that we would take them to Cuba and work them, Sundays and all, and keep them in dungeons: but they would not belicvo it. 7 ’ ExTRAGJthixAitY Pkdkstiuaxism. —A ground nut vendor from this city, apparently not less than fifty yturs of age, uttumleil the sale <»f Hart'/ol’n hotel pro lici t} - ! in P°} h-sto";n, ia 3 | Wednesday weeki with ft bun row of nuts.
