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. *

The Capture of the Rebel Envoys.
THE CASE OF THE t£ CAROLINE,'* AGAIN.
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.

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.

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
