TB BATTLE AT WIRCHESTF3
GALLANTRY OF COLONEL - JOSEPH F. HNIPE
P&NNSYLYANIA. ' l 4llOll VINDICATSD
The account published in relation to the re
treatfrom Strasburg, by the Column under com
mand of Gen. Banks, and ,of the battle at
Winchester, au,3 in according to the 48th
Pennsylimn la iegiment,. Col. Joie& Snipe,. the
warmest and the fullest praise,. .correspon
dent of the Philadelitila 14:parer glies a very
full 'account of the stirring - events of that re
treat', from which" we make such extracts as
will be of interest to our readers.
The actions of this regiment are spoken of
la the highest terms. Information having been
received of the attack at Front Boyal, an order
was; iven to the regiment, at three o'clock- on
y morning, to march immediately,. for
W heater. The regiment was endatn
of a small stream called Tod'e
BroOk, about h Miles smithwast of Strasburg: -
The order was immediatelyiksyed- Tealswere
struck, and without breekf he men atarted on
their march. The Forty-sixth, being the. right
of Acting Brigadier-General Donnelly'sbrigade,
moved in advance, followed by the Twenty
eighth New York, Lieutenant-Colonel Brown,
(Colonel DonAelly acting as brigadier,) and the
Fifth Connefflibut, Lieut. Col. Chapman. (The
colonel of this regiment, Col. Ferrey, is acting
as brigadier-generatof Gen. Shields' command.)
The brigade and regimental trains, in number
about one hundred and fifty wagons, had been
sent on immediately in advance.
About seven' o'clock the brigade arrived at
Strasburg, where it was joined by Brigadier-
General Gordon's brigade, Donnelly's brigade
' taking the advance. An hour afterwards the
entire force, under command of Major-General
Banks; took up the line of march for Winches
ter. The cavalry, consisting of the First Mich
igan and parts of, the Fifth . New York and
First Vermont, under General , Hatch, and
Hamptott's Pennsylvania Battery, in the mean
time remained at a point about four Miles south
of Strasburg, for the purpose of protecting the
removal of a large quantity of commissary's
stores. Finding it imposeible to • remove all,
tue soldiers were supplied, and the balance
were prndentlysetfire to and destroyed. When
the command reached Middletown, six miles
this side of Strasburg, the rebel cavalry came
out from the woods on the side of the road and
attacked the' train in front. A stampede took
place among the teamsters, and while many
wagons were upset in turning short, others
were set fire to and burned. Among _" the
wmons were several belonging to antlers and
refugees.
the Forty-sixth immediately, '
.by companies,
placed their knapsacks, blankets, and every
thing that would interfere with their move
ments, upon the roadaide, loaded at will, and
forwarded' at doable quick up the turnpike as
far as Newtown, about four miles distant, driv
ing the rebel cavalry ahead until they reached
'tile village, here the rebels took to the woods
to the right. w One section of a Nit* York bat
tery, under Lieutenant" Woodbury, followed,
andtaking position, opened. fire, driving them
back. At the same time two ,companles of the
Forty-sixth, A and acting as skirmishers,
tired, killing two and wounding One, which
they left on the field. The Forty-sixth and the
battery then returned to -the pike and moved
on in front of the train, which was , proteoted
in the rear by the rest of the command. No
rebel interference was experienced after that,
and the command reachedNinchester about 9
o'clock P. is. Donnelly's brigade bivouacked
that night, without food or blankets, on the
Front Royal road, about a Mile south the
town,Gordon's brigade resting on the left of
the trasburg road. On Sunday morning be
fore daybreak, :melts was sounded, and the
troop; were called to arms. During the night
there had been constant and heavy firing be
tween the iiickete.
)wring the night, anticipating an attack early
in the morning, an order was given by General
Banks that Gordon's brigade should form the
right wing of the defence and Donnelly's the
left. About half pastlour fire was opened up
on the left by the rebel batteries, about two
miles distant, and almost immediately after
wards an attack was also made 'on the right.
Our batteries then returned the fire and a gen
eral engagement ensued. A -North Oarolina
regiment, several of the officers of which were
in citizens' dress--one captain having on a
black silk hat, and who was subsequently shot
he the head—made an attack on the Forty
sixth, taking them by surprise; but most gal
lantiY wee the enfant met, „for scarcely had
they,made their appearance above the hill-top
and fired their murderous valley, before the
rifled Minlea of"the - Forty-sixth, hid played
havoc with their ranks. Bayonets were •-then
finedr and a charge ' being , made, the tinitere
A4:s • - sttit4'3 4*.sittt7s,: - s • •
were driven from behind h stone wall, where
they bad taken shelter. Severe fighting con
tinue for half an hour—the firing on both sides
being desperate and the loss severe. Severe
firing was mho continued by the other two regi

Towards seven o'clock, a heavy taiat caused
the firing to , tie impended on both sides.
During this time the forty- EdEL changed
their pickets US raising ground, and whew the
tad.: disappeared, which was In abonttwenty
Minutes, firing again began. A regiment of
Rebel infantry now appeared in a hollow near,
.bnt failed to advance against the skirmishers.
About eight O'clock a' conibined - attack of In
„fantry and artillery was made by the Rebels
upon Gordon's brigade—the right wing of the
defence—and in such manner that s stand was
impossible. About an hour before this attack,
a regiment of Ret-el cavalry, (Stuart's,) charged
down the turnpike into the town, thereby get
ting into our rear. and giving them an oppor
tnnity, to cut off stragglers and pick and wound
ed, and the supply trains.
The batteries' of the 'Rebels are said to have
teen: well manned, : and shot and shell were
thrown with the greatest accuracy. Their guns
were' mainly:rifled. Our own artillery also did
most exoelleht execution. -- • ,
The left wing; notwithstanding the. tmfortu
nate {position of the right, stood firm, General
Banks adding . :to their determination by his
constant, presence. About half-pest' eight
o'clock 'an lair to retreat was given, which
was made in excellent order under a heavy fire
of abet and shell from the • rebel battery on the
hill, many of the deadly missiles going through
and riddling the bermes of their own friends.
The IPorty-sixth, in solid column and in perfect
order, marched through the street+) in Winches
ter aif if on dress parade. As soon as the regi
ment entered the town the streets re-echoed
withithe ehota dlsoharged fionilhe windowe of
the dwellings. The destined attack upon our
trooOs was evidently well known by the people
of. Winchester, since no sooner had the battle
'commenced than the windows brietled with
guns' and pistols:
WhereVer ft Union soldier Was seen, there a
shot was fired. Not men only, but women,
need with, effect the deadly weapons. Accurate
aim was not only taken by these female fiends,
but large hand grenades were thrown by them
froM windows, which, as they burst, proved
destrnctiveto the lives and limbs of our gallant
men! The, shots were, of course, returned, and
heads here and there were seen to suddenly dis
appear below the sash. •
When the Forty-sixth arrived at a point just
this aide of the depot, they received a volley
froth a regiment of Louisiana Tigers, stationed
some two hundred - Ards distant, but did not
return the fire, from prudential motives. The
retreat was then continued, Gordon's brigade
being about half a mile in advance on the left,
and the remainder of Donnelly's aborit a mile to
the right; the •tebel battery - which had been
previously engaged against our right having
taken position In the earthworks made by
Johnston last summervon the top of the hill,
shelling, our men as they xnoved for Ward.

I=lth Congress--First Sessioni
WASEINGIOR, May 30
SENATE.
• Mr. TRuilßursi t (Ill.,) did not see any necessity
for extra haste in passing the tax bill. This
session of Congress was not bound to adjourn
at any particular time, and he did not think
Congress ought to adjourn in the present. con
dition of things, and leave the post of duty.
He Was opposod to any attempt to push the bill
through by night sessions.
Dixon, (Corm.,) spoke in favor of early
action on the tax bill.
Mr. StinCONS moved :to amend the tax on
whisky so as to make it twenty-five cents
until July, and after that' thirtY-five cents per
gallon.
Mr. Suramsai opposed the amendment as
being too high a tax on one article and ope
rating injurioualy on the agricultural interests.
Mr. Hems (12e*Ynrk) said that he would
assume that the expenditure would go on and
the debt become' one thousand million, this
was certainly enough to satisfy any body—he
thought this bill was calculated to raise more
than was actually needed to pay the current
expenses of the Government, besides an inter=
eat on the debt, and create an ample sinking
fund—he was willing,to vote every dollar that
was necessary, but no more—he would not add
to the already heavy load on the people.
Th e discussion was continued by Miens
Cusinnara and McDotrosn, (Cal.) The latter
speaking at length upon the merits of the bill,
contending for the superiority of the substitute
o ff e red by him, which raised sufficient revenue
and taxed only those things which were legally
subject to taxation _ while the bill from the
Howie taxed everyt hing , which should be en
couraged, and by the great mass machinery and
detail renders itseltimPrecticable•
