NTEY'S DEATH..
The battle on Monday night between Generalaßeno

three Mile° to the rear of Centreville, and about a mile
to the sight of the Centreville road. It was. a complete
victory on oar side, bat dearly bought by the loss of
General Roarney and General Stevens.
General RenO'S division had been posted there, during
the day, to observe the rebel movements. The approach
of the enemy was ascertained in the afternoon. and Ge
neral Kearney was ordered,• to advance to Rene., sup
port. The enemy were attempting to turn oar right

In-the - afternoon. The engagement between him and the , .
rebels continued for about an hour •before the arrival of
our reisforeements. • •
Gen. Reno had meted his troop' with his. right,. rest
ing against a wood. Gen. Stevens , ' division was upon.
the leit,-Reno himself bolding the right. , .After the line
of battle was formed, the enemy attempted to.turn Gen.
Reno's left flank. Gen. Stevens„ to anticipate end. pre•
cent ibis wiovernent, advanced at the heed 'of his dlvi•
sion to the attack. The enemy were posted in,e corn
field; and on the further side of it partially protected by
the woods. -In the centre of the field was a rite/tie, into
which Gen. Stevens advanced. AC , he watt- leading his
column eomedistance before reaching the eaemt'e line,
be was soot dead by, a bullet. through the bead. - His.
troopeolisheartened by Malone, and undoubtedly oat aim
bered, fell back in tonsiderabledisorder. Gen. Reno focind
himself at this period without any support upon his loft,
with 'his troops mostly out of ammunition, while• the'
. enemy, were approaching in. hoary force upon the lefi
flank. and threatening to turn his potation and cut bid'
force in two.
It was at this juncture that General. Kearney arrived.'
upon the field. The.nigbt was very dark, the rain fall
ing wry heavily, with a terrible s orm of thunder 'and
lightning. .Itwee nearly impoisiblem discover at once
the'exact position of the enemy. On the exposed..left
flank of General Beno they-were summed to be ad- I

the left, rode forward to make a reconnolesanceth portion
'He was told that there were no troops of ours in front of
the position which General Stevens had held, and, that
through the gap - the'rebeht were rapidly advencing;:but,
disregarding or dithefleving the information, went for.

denly upon the rebel advance, was.shot dead. Hie death
remained unknown nntil.the following morning, but, as
he did not return to his. commend, and wee @notated to
be a prisoner, General Birney took command. of the dill.

Geri. Hey° bad at this time - withdrawn entirely from
the fight, and Gen.' Birnoy found . the enemy in front of
.him, considerably to the left of Benir's original volition,
aad oven threatening to turn his own left flank. Gen.
Bobinion's brigade, with Graben - Os battery. First United
States, was ordered .to the left, Gen.. Hither 'tl brigade
constituted the reserve, also strengthened, by. Itandolph'e
battery, which opened on the enemy with vigor and effect.
G 4313. tsirnity formed his line of battle in front end on the
centre with hie own brigade, consisting, of seven regi
ments. A muekehy fire was opeued.on both.sides, and
continued with great sharpness for perhaps half an hear.
The enemy's fire being' unsuatalned by artillery, was
greatly shaken by the cannonade from our side, and by
the heaviness of the infantry Bre.
General Birney: as sonnets he perceived indications of.
the enemy's unsteadiness In his front.' ordered the 40th—
known as the Mozart Begiment—and let Now York, both
cenmsanded by Colonel Egan. and the Scott Life Guard— :
SW. New York—Colonel Ward, to advance in a bayonet
charge. These three regiments moved across the corn
field, down the ravine, and up the operetta slops, with
the greatest ga lantry and determination, and almost in
stantly broke-the rebel line and pat theta to flight. They
were pursued by the fire of our artillery, but owing to the
darknees and the storm pursuit by infantry for any did..
lance was impossible. -
Our troop' occupied the position of the enemy from
which haled been driven, General Berry's reservabri-
gads holding the ground all night. Our dead were boded,
and wounded carried off the ground. Some prisoners
were takin4 from the enemy, among them were the adiu-

The-Scenes in the City.
[From the Cincinnati Commercial, 2d.] . •
• There were" many curious and never-to-be -forgotten
scenes in tbe.city yesterday. Toe business houses wore
closed, the street cars ceased to rnn, and there was, in
•meny.parti of the town, a strange silence that was -More
appalling . to the timid than an unusual clamor would have
:been. - At the points of holding elections in ,the various
wards, the able. bodied men assembled in male. erg/deed
into companies, and, in sense instances, dillled for hoUrs
with great .aseiduity., The typectacle.of long lines of
men in the streets, going throne's the facings In a hued,
nees like Manner., was one that Was strikingly suggest
ive. In several wards, over a'thonsand 'men were en
rolled. Aids and orderlies dashed about on their horses;
'policemen walked their _beat., bearing mnekets with
fixed bayonets; citisens assembled in
,knots on the cor
ners many -ladies- came ant, invited by the beautiful
weather and tbe - excitements of the time, to promenade,
and others. looked intently from doors and winder - we - as
on boilday occasions. There was a general realization
of the impending danger, and yet no symptoms-of a
paniE.
One of the most suggestive incidents of the business of
preparation Ibr war,„. which we noticed yesterday, was
that of an Irishman on Sixth street, who was for some
hours engaged in Whetting a sword on his door stone. He
labored with the most iolemn energy, and, when we
saw him, blade and stone were glittering in thevautt.
We have no material change to note in the river, but
we note a change in river matter& The Louisville and
Na) nine. "packets were the only steamers that left the
levee, save on Government blisinees. How many were
engaged in the latter service we have neither the room nor
the inclinatton.to record. Yesterday Captain John A.
Duble, <AIM of- the United . States Gunboat-Department,
by order of Gen., Wallace, .fitted out , three independent,
outside' of the gtmboitts building here, for the. Govern
ment. In addition theriier was patrolled for miles above
and below the oar, and' water craft if every description
foUnd moored on the Icentnoky shore was towed to the
Ohio aide. All the-steamers. at the levee were steaming
daring the'day, and' held iireadinese to fulfil any request
or railer of the Government.' -So far as the river, de
fences ate concerned, we feel warranted hi saying that .
Captain Dahl°, andvite river interest generally, is °lithe
alert for any emergency. . '

[From the Iticbmon‘ ' Diepeteb, Sep. I]
The inform,ation received: from the seat of war since
our laic issue is so meagre in its details that it is exceed
ingly difficult to arrive at any direct conch:Won as to the
operations, of the contending forces. From the remark-.
able reticence that is observed, awl the astonishing sue
eras which attends theiefforteof the Government to with
hold all intelligence of the movements of our forces, it is
interred that some - magnificent plans,for theannffidlation
of the Federal army are on • the eve of execution, and
that* few days will
,demonstrate the wisdom With which'
• these plans have been devised, and the spirit and vigor
with.which they have been carried out '
It is aseertedom what ought to be regarded' as reliable
watilority that our furceii,"in large numbers, have gained
the rear of the enemy, and that on daturday; and per

:given to mere street inmora, but we do not claim for them
the eanctionefur.questionable'anilhority. We give them
healer:4e we think them not at all improbable. •
There are alth reports of a heairy battle on Friday,'
:near Brietow's Btationi four mites south of Manassas,
..betweeri'the division of GentilSwell and the forces of the,.
enemy'', in which it is said that our forcei were twice
'driven from their position with severe toes, but receiving

,drove tie enemy back, capturing
several batteries and some five thousand prisbners. -- Be

thelatter locationis correct. It is also stated
acme that the divisions of Jackion, A. P. Hill, and Ewell.
were ell in the battle, and others that it was „knelt by
Ewell's division aldne. '
Another,report, which was brought to the city by pw--
`Stingers on Saturday, and again yesterday, represents
'that Gen Stuart bad taken Harper's - Perry, and golds

regiments. This for ay have .. been withdrawn, or it'
may 'lnsie been inereesed. Fedefale have for some
time boasted ,that. the town was , strongly fortified and

by a.confirmation or contradiction of the report of its.

• member of - Congress, who came down on the Central
train yesterday afternoon, says that the Baltimore Sun
of Thursday had been received in the valley, in which'
it was stated that our forces had captured at Manassas,
on Wednesday, five trains of cars, loaded with provisions,
and later, on the same day,, five other trains, on board of
' which wre- - some two thousand Yankee troops: The
affair was commented upon by the Yankee press as very
discreditable to their commander, and some harsh reflect-

Auer this brilliant affair the cavalry returned to •Isia

fifteen hundred or two thousand Yankee prison

:.supposed that these are the prhioners captured at Dye's
station by our cavalry. , '
ARMED INTERVENTION
Anything less than armed intervention by several of
the leading Powers of •Barope will do our cause more
harm than good. The recognition of our independence,
the raising of the. blockade, and alliance, offensive and
defensive, with France or Nngland, would but exasperate
and unite the North, and thus strengthen her and induce
us to relax our exertions, and thereby weaken us.
No one .Power 'in • tirope."can successfully invade the
North. If her seacoast be - blockaded - and her seaport
cities captured, she will have more soldiersfor her wades
and/ewer idlers to support. TM) necessaries of life and
'the munitions of ear are, or readily can be, produced in
the interior. So far as 'these articles axe concerned, the
seaboard.oitiee are non• producers and most - expensive
'consumers. Three centuries and half ago, every
nationfof Europe lived' within itself, independent of
foreign trade. Bo section of the globe ' prOdadea with
ao little labor, and in such abundance, .the neces
saries of life as' the . Northwest Divested of her
seaboard „towns and Of : the *artificial and acquired
wants which' thole towns engender and maintain,
and no country , can sustain' herself with so little la
bor as tho ,Notth, and, therefore, no country can spare
so large a proportion of her population for military pnr
poses be raises an Immense surplus of meat and
breed, and can dispi me with tea, coffee and angar,*as did
the nobility even of Europe three centuries ago. For
clothing,-she can use wool, and hemp, and ilex,' as did
oar 'anceistots: In fine, she can •ber-jast, as co nfortable,
and. far more independent, without foreign trade than
with ,it. Her intense hatred - to %the.Sofith, her pride,
her exasperation; would induce her, is case of foreign
ti
intervenon, to readily eacrince all artificial and acquired
wants, and live within herself. Without a , navy 'and
without a mercantile marine, for. European Powers might.
divest her of them, several hundred thousand - men would
be oisengaged from their accustomed pursuits,be without
employment, and bmming with indignation and thirst of
revenge against the enemies who had thrown them help:
lees.on the world. From choice as Weil as necessity they
would icin the invading armies of the North an. consti
tute the most efficient soldiery in thcise armies Her
foreign trade enfeebles the. North i our want of snob a
trade and want of a' navy enables us to concentrate all
our forces and thus strengthens us.
*,* * * .
It is chiefly: becanse we have been hlockaded
.that we
have exhibited such wonderful power in this struggle. It
has enabled us to concentrate our forces and our energies,
to dispense with foreign luxuries, and to produce more of
the necessaries of life and the munitions of war; and it
has moreover saved ue kern all difficulty and vexation on
the currency aubject. Our• cotton and 'tobacco, 'unsold,
represent their value in gold and silver, and serve as a
bails for our present and future credit. Had our ports
bken open, a largeportion of our ;People' would have been
employed, in sending these articlee to market, selling
them, and in selling the useless luxuries fer'which they
have been exchanged. Our foreign exports bring us In
little that is useful, and scarce any thing that's necessary,
or if necessary, like salt and iron, itotaiog that wo bad
not better prcdnce at home. Foreign intervention that
shall sserely raise "the blockade from our cities, capture
the 'Northern seaboard towns,..und blockade her coast,
*mild be ruinous to us ; and if wo were reiieved from the
blockade we shoild expend' nine. tenths Ipf the proceeds
of our cotton and tobacco in useless luxuries, destroy the
basis of our credit, and, divert a large portion, probably
ono half our, population, from War, or from industrial
ponaire necessary to the succesifui conduct of the war,
and set them to trading and money making. ,liet us have
no., recognition of our" independence, no raising of the
blockade, no. mediation, no intervention, unless it be MU
dent intervention—an intervention founded upon just,
humane, and sensiblereasons.
There will be no such interrention no each uprising.
Crocked policy, not justice,' controls the affairs of nations.
We 'balite left alone to achieve our independence; and,
after it is Achieved, the . peoples iif , Surope will greedily
peek to participate - in its advantages Dy entering into
favorable commercial treaties with us. ~We ►hall owe
them neither a debt of gratitude nor a debt of money,
and it will be our right and our duty so to conduct our
foreign trade and relations as will most redound to the
profit and advantage of our own citizens, regardless of
theponeequencesro other natlona' Our cotton - , tobac.o,
and other agricultural products, are Our own. We can
burn them, or charge what prices we please, and none
will have aright to complain, for none have aided us'in

we must have;. sod if, in order to secure it, we have to
trammel or exclude foreign trade, we shall not hesitate to
do so. !done? making, selling in the dearest markets
and buying in the cheapest, is net always the wisest, the
safest, or the beet policy of States. Let the nations of
Europe look to it that they, do not, by their ungenerous

their aim was directed at our- batteries, but afterwards
they commenced throwing their. shells indiscriminately
in every,. girection nearly all falling short. Some came_
within a short distance of the city ;some :Olin the river,
and some were seen to fall in Deiioto. Our batteries es
caped: injury, and nobody wee hurt: Some old bonne -
below the city were struck, but no aerious damage was
done. The principal damage, was the digging up of a
patch of potatoes by the &heals.
A shell struck the residence of Mr. Victor F. Wilson,
entering the northwest corners and from thence to the •
cellar, where it - exploded, tearing tl ings to plow; gene-
rally, and coming out at the top of the building. We
are informed that one of our citizens, a non- combatant,
was woundtd Yesterday by the explosion of a shell. The
mortar fleet opened on our batteries this morning at six
-o'clock, and kept up their lire at ahout the same rate as
esterday. ,To wilds ten o'cluck the firing slammed
considerably, and longer interval!, of silence relieved the
incessant cannonading of • the previous three or four
hours.
Our batteries opened about II o'clock upon a squad of
gunboats that had talierisheltir behind the point of tins.
ber below, and cent the splintcrs tiring in all directions.
It is reported that some of the shot etruckthe masts and
did g< od execution on the decks. One ganboat made a
narrow escape from destruction. She ventured within
range of our guns, when a few Well.directed shot made
lier.geticint of the way quick. As we go to press they are
eviaently trying their beat to shell the court house, bat
Ahoy are all falling short. We have no farther news from
the Beet above to-day. some of them are reported to be
in '94 bend above here, and some are reported to be up
the. Yazoo. Persons who have been in elevated places,
where they could have a good view of the steamer in
the river above, ,wboso smoke is plainly visible here,
inform us that it is not a gunboat but a regular steam
boat. .We cannot tell whether it Is the Mears or one of
the enemy's transports.

forces, :raider Brigadier. General,Maxey, :crossed the
river and occupied Bridgeport. Te advance wasted by
Col; hicßinstry, with the 8211 Alabama Regiment, and
the crossing was made on the part of our troops by

The latest report We have from the river is up to 2X

'brave boys driving the enemy closely, killing. wounding,
and capturing them as they fell. back. From a note. add

RETLISA.TION
[kroin the Charleston Courier, Aug. 22.]
.
was the desire of the South to carry on this contest
according to the laws and usages established and prac
tised' by civilized nations. Is was manifest at the be
ginning-of the girlie 'that the.contesit would be desperate
and bloody, and for the honoeof its name, as ,well as for
the‘credit of• Abe people with whom we had so long been
in alliance; it was hoped ,that all unnecessary shedding
of blood and infliction of evil would be refrained from,
and that the asperities of, war would be softened by the
littirchange 'courtesies and kindness. ,
The deeire and putpcse of the Confideracy touched
no answering chord in the bosom of the mean foe. That
brill ant example' et - magnanimons forbearance was lost ,
upon them. They, abused anddenounced. us in the
coarsest terms,immicked the laloguege for harsh, vile,
and. Wag epithets, which they heaped:: upon us with a'
tierce rancor • which ithovied plainly that the feeling was.
not.producei by the offence of secession,' but that it bed.
been . nourished and cherished for a generation, though
disguised and concealed a fthe dictate of: self. interest: '
In order to justify, or at least to palliate,the-enormous.
crimes against justice, law, and decency they contemplated'
committing, they refused to accord us the rights of belli
gerents, and fabricated the most shocking tales of the'
cruelties we practised. They wetted tiaet the movement
was planned and executed by disappointed deMegogues,
broken down politicians, aspirants after power; aim a few
restless spirits who long ago -plotted the destruction of
the Union, and` that- beyond the sphere of- time influence
of these evil-mizded men, the huge sin of secession, the
infamous wickedness of believing• in the right of self- '
government was not approved, but that the intelligence;
and worth, and wealth of the South were profoundly op
,
posed to the iniquitous movement. They fulminated all
manner of slanders and falsehoods with an energy, en
deavoring to prepare the way for the excesses and out
rages of their inyaoing hosts, and to prejudice the minds
of foreigners against us. •
They attempted, at the same time, to frighten US by
terrible threats and infinite' boasts, and When they fonnd
that all these smarm had miserably failed, and the course
of the war had convicted them of wanton calumny and
deliberate falsehood, and that, moreover, wo were by no
means a foe they conldafford to contemn, they resorted
to unconstitutional acts and mean cruelties.
We would be untrue to the cause in which we are,
ergaged did we continue to practise forbearance and
mercy toward 'bitch" a people. They aim not to accent- .
plish the restoration'., of the Union, but to gratify their
avarice by getting possession of our fair heritage, their
lust by violating our women, their hatred' and malice by
wholesale and indiscriminate slaughter. . They have no
bowels of mercy, no sense of justice, no sentiment of
honor, no instinct of humanity, no quality of manhood,
to 'which we can appeal. 'Pity shown theca would be
ccnsidered •fear.; forbearance they would interpret to
mean cowardice Herby to such a foe would be the
greatest cruelty, to those who are exposed to their hatred
and fury. '
- We mint make use of the same weapons he has formed
against ne. We must enforce exact and perfect retribn
tion. -Ansel e for, an eye and a tooth fora tooth,'must
be the rule of condu it toward this mean and barbarous
• adversary: • The dungeen, the repo, the Bre, are the in
strumenta we must. make use onto, turn him from the
evil course upon which he has entered. The blood of
unarmed citizens cries to us from the ground, &edit is a
solemn duty we as a Government anti a people owe to
them, to avenge their murder, and it is only by strict and
tertible retaliation that wecan protect those who shall
hereafter fell into their hands. '
It is , to be regretted that the war has assumed this
horrible complexion. - Bat if our enemy would have it
so,
,tben let it be a bloody, fierce, and savage , contest,
unrelieved by 'the exercise of a single noble luiman in
ttinct, by the practice of a single noble quality, by the
grace of a single act of courtesy. Our enemy has forced
us to adopt this kind of warfare ; upon him rests the re
sponsibility ; the guilt and infamy are his. We stand
,arnuitted in rbe . eyes of God and man.
NARRATIVII OP COL:-ADLBR; A RICLIMOND REFUGEE,
. Col. Adolpline R. Adler. recently of the rebel army,
whose escape from Castle Godwin, Richmond, and daring
journey through the hostile portion of Virginia to the
Union lines near Winchester, wee mentioned a few daya
ago in the Wasbington.patiors, has personally communi
cated thefollowii3g to the New York Times
In the evening of the Bth of August he walked'out of
hie prison, in disguise, passing no fewer than four sentriea
and a serge.nt, ere be reached the street. Re at once
hastened to the house of a Union man of his acquaintance,
and there are many In 'Richmond, and there remained
bidden for 11 r MO 9 ,._PSYIDg, however, some fifty dollar's
for.tbe privilege. Warned by his Bind hest that the
Government detectives were on hie track; he changed his
biding place in the night, and managed, by shifting his,
domicile in the same way, repeatedly, to retain secretly
in Richmond for eight days,. without, being discovered.-
Closely disguised, he went out atnight, and approached
the fortificatione and outworks of the town, which he
considers formidable indeed, but by no means impregna
ble. Be also hid blatioif in tha;vioLnity_of the railroads,
sod, for night after trighty'.a train left every two hours,
conveying troops to Gardonsiille ant the lined , the Rap
pahannock. All tho roads coming from the South are
now connected at' Riehmond with those running North,
so that trains of „troop& arriving from below can'pasit
rightlircugh Northward, without detention. The sc.'
count given by Col Ailler, with 'cirCumatinotial exacti- .
tcsie, conflicts with the,undereetimate generally made of
the force of the rebel armies in Virginia. The ailonel,
during these eight days of concealment, at great expense,' .
employed a man whom he had long known andaerved;
to watch Gen. 'Winder, the military commandant of the
city, and to bring him exact intelligence. ,This informa
tion, aided by his own intimate knowledge of the rebel
organization, plan,lre.. enabled I:dm to make out the

DESCRIPTION OF THE VESSEL. . ' •
The AdirOndaCk was one of the new steam corvettes
ordered by the Government, was built at the Bi-cOklin
flayy Yard, and launched on Washington'a bittbdsV,
the. 22d of February last: She was a wooden venal, .
having been fir advanced toward construction before
the advantages e,f iron-clod ships were so manifest as
!boy are now. She wan 267 feet -2 inches long, "over
all," had a breadth of beam of 38.,feetos depth of, hold ••
10 beet 1134 inches, and drew 14 feet of water. Her
machinery was of the first class,. and was constructed at
the Novelty orks. It consisted of two horizontal back
acting engines, with cylinders 42 inches,in diameter anti
80 inches ttroka. The .boilers were built on Martin's
patent, provided with the latest improvements of the,.:
inventor. The propeller was a two-bladed, true screw.
.14 feet '3 inches in diameter, with proportionate pitch. ; z ..
Sewab's celebrated outlasts Condenser was attached to •
the machinery, and a distilling appartitrusi. capable of
distilling 300 gallons of water In 24 bowls: Hor model .
was.designed in Washington by the United States Con
