Quay, attached to the staff of Brig. Gen. Tyler, who commanded in the late battle at Port Republic, Va., is now in' the city on short leave, recruiting his health: He has favored us with a copy of ) Gen. Tyler's official report to Gen. Shields, which we publish entire, (for the !first time,) giving, as it does, the most intel ligible account of the engagement which has yet reached us from any quarter: HEAD QUARTERS TIMID BRIGADE, Near Luray, Va., June 12, 62. j Gen. Jainer Shields, conz'g Division : Sir:—ln compliance with your order to proceed to Waynesboro', I left Columbia Bridge on the 7th inst., reaching Naked Creek the same day, going into camp un der orders to march at 4 o'clock, A. m., next, that we might reach Port Republic at the time you indicated to me. When within about six miles of the town I learn ed Acting Brig. Gen. Carroll, with the 4th Brigade, had engaged the enemy at or near the town. Immediately I halt ed my train, clearing the road for the troops and artillery, and pressed forward to his support as rapidly as possible, reaching the position occupied by him, some two miles North of the town, at 2 o'clock p. m., Bth inst. The position was selected by Col. Daum, I understood, as the only tenable one in that vicinity.— From that officer I learned the enemy had eighteen pieces of artillery, planted so as to completely command all the aptiroaches to the town, and front the engagement with General Carroll that mcrning had at tained the range of the different points.— Immediately on the arrival ofmy command, Col. Daum urged an attack, with the com bined force of infantry and artillery, to which I so far consented its to order the infantry into position, under cover of a thick wood which skirted the road—and commenced observing the enemy's posi tion myself; which appeared to me one to defy an army of 50,000 men. lat once sent for Col. Carroll, Lieut. Col. Shriber, Capts. Clark and Robinson, who had been over the ground, they all agreeing in the opinion that an attack would result in the' destruction of our little three. About this time your order to " Commandant of Post at Port Republic" was handed me: upon it and the opinion of these officers, I ordered the infantry buck to bivouac for the night. A heavy picket was kept well to the front to observe any movement of the enemy and at la. in. General Carroll and myself' went to the outer videttes, who reported that there had been no movement of the enemy across the bridge during the night, their pickets only appearing—which we were able dis cover ourselves. IVe returned to camp and a few moments after your order of .1 tine Bth, 7,1 p. mu., from Columbia Bridge, reached me, and while writings reply was informed that the enemy were advancing upon us. ur rather into the woods opposite their position, evidently with a view of outthink ing us upon the left. Capts. Clark and Robinson opened their batteries upon them with effect and Capt. Huntington's guns were son doing the same good work. Two companies of skirmishers and two regiments of infantry were ordered into the woods to Counteract this movement of the enemy. The lire ()four shirmishers was soon heard and I ordered two more regiments to their support. A sharp fire was kept up in the woods, for a few mo ments only, when the enemy retired and was soon seen coming out of the woods, crossing to join a column moving upon our right. In the meantime a section of two guns hail opened upon our battery on the left, and another section was taking posi tion on our right. The Seventh In diana infantry, Colonel Gavin, was sent to the extreme right and was met by two rebel reg,iments, under cover of the • river bank. section of Capt. Clark's battery took a position well to the right. The lire of the enemy, from their masked position, compelled Col. Gavin to retire a short istance, which lie did in admirable order. The 211th Ohio was sent to support him, moving forward in splendid style •on double-quick. The 7th Ohio was next sent forward to sup port Capt. Clark's gnus ; the StJi Ohio next, to support a section of Capt. Hun tington's battery. These two last named regiments moved forward and engaged the enemy in a style that commanded the admiration of every beholder. Re,giment after regiment of the enemy moved upon our right and the engagement became very warm. The Ist Virginia, Col. Tho borne,who had been ordered into the wood on the left, was now ordered down to the right, entering the open field with a .loud shout. My entire force was now in posi tion. lln our right was the. 7th Indiana, Col. Gavin, 20uli Ohio, Col: Buckley. 7th Ohio, Lieut. Col. Creighton, sth Ohio, Col Dunning, Ist Virginia, Col. Thoburne, with sections of Capts. Clark's and Hun tington's batteries. On our left the key of the position was a company of the sth and one of the 66th Ohioinfantry, deploy ed through the woods as skirmishers. The 84th and 110th Pennsylvania regiments were also well up in the woods. The 66th Ohio, Col. Candy, was directly in the rear of the battery, composed of three guns of Capt. Clark's battery, three guns of Capt. Huntington's and one of Capt. Robinson's battery, under Lieut. Col. Hayward, and upon him and his gallant band depended everything at this critical moment; and the duty was well and gallantly execu ted. Had they . given way the com mand must have been lost. The left wing of Colonel Candy's regiment was extended into the woods and close in the rear of the battery, which position they held until a retreat was ordered. Ad ditional reinforcements of the enemy were coming up on our right, having abandoned 'their position on the left, and'l ordered the 89th and 110th down to the right, but before they reached the position as'uigned them the enemy was in full retreat before our brave men and I at once ordered them across into the woods again. Undercover of the engagement on our right the enemy had thrown another force into the woods and pressed them down upon our batteries on the left. So rapid was this movement that they passed the line onwhichthe 84th andlloth were ordered unobserved—mak ing a dash upon the battery so sudden and , unexpected as to compel the cannoniere to abandon their pieces. Col. Candy met the enemy with his regiment, with great coolness, - his men fighting with commends,: ble bravery. The 7th and sth Ohio were soon supporting him, driving the enemy from their position and retaking the bat tery. The artillery officers made a strong effort and used great exertions to remove their guns, but (the horses having been killed or disabled) found it impossible.— The enemy had given way along the whole line, but I saw heavy reinforcements °rose ing from the town, that would have been impossible for us successfully,to resist.— Alter consulting Gen. Carroll, rordered the troops to fall back under his direction —with a view of retreating Gins. should me r e th e reinforcement s of Kimball and Ferry., • -- • • Gen.

Official Report of Brigadier General Tyler. enemeiktleci,(myipforniat rom the prnicineirs Wide by us) if one iirthem estimated*, at less Os/o,ooolw actually in the engagement: - • The loss of our artillery we feel almost as keenly as we should to have lost our colors, yet it was impossible to save them without animals to drag them through the deep mud; the men could not do it. While we deeply feel this loss, we have the sails ffiction of knowing that we have one of theirs, captured by the sth Ohio and driven off in full view of their whole force; sixty seven prisoners following it to this post. It will not be expected that I can men tion the many gallant actions of the differ ent officers upon that hard-fonght field.— Yet I cannot do justiceto my own feelings without remarking that in my opinion brav er, more determined and willing men never entered a battle-lield. Gen. Carroll dis tinguished himself by his coolness and dashing bravery. Upon him I relied and was not disappointed. For heroic gallantry I will place Col. Gavin, Co!.. Buckley, Lieut. Col. Chreighton, Col. Duming, Col. Thoburne, Col. Candy and Lieut. Col. Hayward beside the bravest men of the United States Amity. The line officers of the different regiments discharged their duty nobly and deserve special mention by their Colonels. Capts. Clark, Robinson and Huntingdon served their guns with great credit and deserve particular notice. To the members of your staff, Lieut. Col. Shriber, Capt. Keiley and Capt. Keogh, I am under many, very many obligations, for the protnpt, efficient and officer-like manner in which the,- discharged the du ties assigned them. The two latter were in the field through the hottest of the en gagement, exposed to the enemy's fire from find, to last. Capt. Keiley received a severe wound in the face, while urging forward the meta and was carried off the field. For a list of the casualities of the en gagement, I respectfully refer you to the reports of the several regiments, aecompa nying this paper. The loss of the enemy must have been very heavy. The grape and canister from our batteries and the fire of our mus ketry mowed them down like grass before a well•served scythe, and the !het of their heavy force retiring before us is an evi denim that they suffered severely. -lid-de•Camp Eaton was the only otliiser of my own staff present.

Tyr.Eit, Brigadier i:Pllerfl Pennsylvania Railroad Engi neers. The Harrisburg Patriot and Unii.ilthUS speaks of the engineers on the Penns)l ca- Ma Railroad: "There is no railroad in the United States, or in filet in the world, can boast of a more efficient corps ofengineers than the Pennsylvania Central railroad.-- Careful, disereet and indefatigable, they are the theme of admiration and praise in all circles. It is owing entirely to the efficiency of the engineers tharan accident rarely occurs on this road. Passengers who travel on the Central railroad feel perfectly secure—they feel as safe when seated in the cars as they would it they' were at home in their parlors. As soon as a passenger enters a car his life is in the hands of the engineer. just as truly as a man's property is in the hands of the firemen. ft is necessary, then, that this class should be 'trustworthy and men of capability. If any of our citizens take a stroll to the depot about car time, they will see in the engineers tokens of intelli gence, respectability and firmness and thees which have been familiar for years. They are always at their post. They en dure equal hardships and undergo as severe trials and perils as the soldier who is fighting the battles of our country. Let them be subjected to the ''pelting of the pitiless storm," or exposed to the blazing sun. they withstand it without a murmur. Such men are to be honored, and the com pany is certainly to be congratulated for its wise selections In them they have men who have the confidence of the entire traveling community, men whose services. if lost to the company, could not be easily' replaced. lire la engineers !" "(Open Air Grape Culture..' This is the title of a new book on an in teresting subject by a practical man. John Phi,,, who gives the deductions of his own experience and of others in the manage ment of the grape in the open air in our climate. His .vork is a seasonable one, inasmuch as the attention of our people has been much turned of late to the culti vation of different varieties of hardy Amer ican grapes desirable for the table or adapted to the making of wine. The plan of Mr. Phin's book is very thorough, and treats of everything relating to the grape, from the preparation of the soil in which the vine is to grow to the manufacture of wine from its fruit.

A minority report was also read from Jos.
