Lute or battle os Ny River. )
May 19,1604. $
In reading some of your papers last evening
I found they contained meagre and very erro
neous accounts of the fighting of the fourteen
days past. *
On ,the morning of the 6th Inst, our division,
the Sbcond'of the Sixth corps, marched down
the QhanceUoraville plank road to the .point
where it Is crossed by the Orange Court House
road. We had scarcely reached this point when
the enemy opened veryj unexpectedly on us
with a heavy fire of musketry. The lS9th being
la advance, 'lmmediately formed line In the
woods, with the 93d on left, and became en
gaged with the enemy. Wefought.for over two
hours, successfully holding the cross roads; a
pointfor which the enemy fought desperately.
The IOSd and 98th relieved the 93d and 139th.
Afterobtaining ammunition and a little rest, our
brigade was forired in line and advanced, the
enemy having fallen back to a hillside across a
low marshy piece of ground. His position was
a sirong one add checked our advanoc. The
189th regiment hid again-; become
fought until five o’clock In the afternoon, when
it was relieved by a portion of Brigadier Gen.
Alexander Hays’brigade! It was at this time
aad place that General Hays was killed. After
obtaining ammunition the regiment again ad
vanced and was engaged <lll after 6 o’clock,
when it and, the whole line fell back to the road.
The loss of the 139th wrs terrific, as was also
that of the whole brigade! That night we threw
up bieasfworks on, the.Chancellorsvlile road.
At daylight on the morning of the Oth the line
advanced beypndthe position held by the enemy
the previous day. Our division, (Gen. Getty/e)
occupied the centre, the Second corps joining
our left with Motes’jdivtsion on the extreme
left. f Thel39th formed part of the second line of
the First brigade, (Wheaiou's) supporting the
the9sSh. A heavy musketry fight was .kept up
until poon, at which timeHhe enemy turned the
flanks .Of Mote's 'division, driving it and the
Seoond.corps back in great confusion. Our bri
gade immediately cliArgedYrom the rear and en
deavored to obeck the stampede, but the press
of out own troops and the lines of the enemy
were too strong, compelling us to fall back,
which we did slowly aijd In tolerable good
order. After reaching the road the troops re
formed, each division taking its original posi
tion. At 6)£ o’clock in the evening the enemy,,
made a-despexato charge on our position on the
road, but were handsomely repulsed with great 1
slaughter. On the 7th our division took posi-!
tlon on the extreme right, and on the night of
that day, with the rest Of the army, changed
position to our present Except as skirmish
ers, our brigade was not engaged in battle from
the ?th until the 13th, at*which time the 189th
made a charge on the enemy's works. The
enemy was too strongly posted for us and wejdld
not reach hie \\ orks, although we took and
nearly, five hours, under the
severest fire, a position in close proximity to
"him, thereby preventing him leaving his en
trenchments. In this change the regiment lost
ninety-two meu killed arid wounded. On the
14th our corps moved to tjhe extreme left, our
divisionbeing on the euemv’s right flank. From
that time until the evening of the 17th the 13etli
was engaged in making and supporting reeon
noisssaces. During the night of the 17th the
corps moved back to the right! the enemy hav
ing massed his troops andltaken possession of
the wotlcß we had made th£re. At daylight of
the 18th. we drove the enemy back to his works.
They shelled us'severely, filling and wounding
is ths regimet eight or nine more. At noon we
returned to the left, across the river Ny, and
are now intrenching our position. The men are
completely lagged out, having been under fire
ilnoe the morning of the 6th. In former cam
paigns, those that escaped unhurt could con
gratulate themselves on th< dr good fortune, and
feel secure for sometime) but in this there being
no reserve, the same troopi i are engaged all the
time,'ahd if we escape In or e action we have no
cause for joy,as we may hav<Lto“go”ln In ten min
utes after. From this continual stretch of the
nerve*, and terribleanxietjj as to the success of
the next>ngagement,fightiug%afl become a night
mare. We have been undejr fire so continually,
• with an almost Incessant roar of musketry ring
ing through our ears and jjthinning our ranks,
and this not confined to any particular time,
but at all hours of the day and the night, that a
whole corps'will be startled out of its sleep by
the repbrt of a .single musket in a distant picket
line. lihave seen regiments on a night march
thift Camp&ign, while resting on the road and.
half asleep, startled into the greatest confusion I
for a . few minutes, by thermeie rumbling of a
wagon down the load, supposing U was mus-.
ketry, and that the whole rebel, army had got irr
our rbar. The 139th regimept fired the first vol
leyof musketry at the enemy in this campaign.
has been in the front fcver since ; so that
the few that are left of tbejireglment are c om*
p&Uly fagged out. As there has been no cor
rectiist of the killed and Wounded of the Regi
ment published yet, I send you the list of casu
alties up to this date-. 1 hej publication of such
a list, will relieve the terrible suspense under
which the friendspt the Regiment must be now

| TO THE PUBLIC,
j Headquarters .Executive Committee of the >
j Pittsburgh Sanitary Fair Stay, 21*/, 1864. j
i -The successful result ol the present effbrt in
I behalf of the sick and wounded soldiers of the
jUnion army, is now beyond a doubt; and the
i Executive Committee of the Fair deems this a
j proper time to make a statement as to the in
tended disposal <Jf the fund produced, and to
, call upon every person who has not already
done so, for the sake of the cause and for the
honor of the people, to come forward and’join
the honorable roll of contributors.
The accounts of the Fair are being kept with
strict business accuracy, &nd will be audited
by apommlttee already appointed from among
the best accountants of the city. The entire
net proceeds will be pAld to the Pittsburgh
Sanitary Committee for the rehef of the sick
and wounded soldiers.
The Pittsburgh Sanitary Committee con
i slsta of Thos. UakewelL, Ksq., President, and
j a large number of o'ur moat respected citizens,
i 1 here are also many ‘“Associate members,’’
j who have a voice and vote whenever thev
j see proper to attend the meetings.
[ There is also an active committee of ladies who
\ have transacted the business of the depot in 4th
I street, including the detalls of collecting, pack
j outting out and making up .an immense
quantity of stores, and whose industry and de
votedness to the cause is beyond praise.
'. *be Sanitary Committee, substantially, was
the organ of the citizens of Pittsburgh iu send
ing the two steamersHailman and Marengo to
the relief of the wounded at Pittsburgh Landing,
i? and establishing, and maintaining
; the hospital for those who were brought back
on the boats. Whenever the occasion seemed to
require, it has sent physicians, nurses and com
mictles to the armies. Ip anticipation of the
battles before Richmond iu J one, 1862, hundreds
Of humane citizens from ail parts of the country
- lBt€o ®d Peninsula to aid tee wounded.
The committee sent twenty-five surceons and
nurses with stores. When the army returned,
leaving our wounded In the hands ol the enemy,
fourteen civilians only remained at the post or
duty. these, one was an agent of the State
of Michigan, one of New York, and twelve were
Citizens of Pittsburgh, sent by this committee.
.Iu January, 1863, as the result of ail the prac
tical knowledge obtained by Its members and
agents, the oommlttee decided that more good
would be accomplished by the distribution of
its stores chiefly through the national agency,
the united States Sanitary Commission, and to
that end, engaged to act as its agent for the col
lecting and transmission of stores, in this city
and tue surrounding couutry, but maintaining
also the right to disposo of a portion of the
bounty intrusted to it, through such local chan
nels as in thejudgmeut of the Committee <ac
void with the objects of the United States San
nary Commission. The Pittsburgh Subsistence
Committee was one of the organizations named
at ihe time. As an instance of the exercise of
this optiou, the Sanitary Committee sent to the
battle-field of Uettysburg some.of its own mem
bers aud about twenty surgeons, many of whom
did efficient duty In the line of their profession
during the ween following the battle. To the
same place, a large quantity of stores was sent
in charge of" a social agent, who on arrival
placed them in the hands of the U. 3. SanltAry
Commission, as the surest mode by which to
secure proper distribution. While reserving
this degree ot liberty in the exercise o?lts iunt>
tious, the committee has generally shipped its
stoies to the poiuts designated »y the U. 5>
Sanitary Commission. Most of them for the
last year have gone to the Western Army.
The Committee has never sent money to the
Chlted Mates Sanitary Commission,and is it In- 1
tended that the money to be raised by the Fair i
ahail be expended as judiciously .is possible by
the Committee, chtefly in the purchase of such
sup; lementary supplies as may be uended from
time to time Iroiu this region, andwhich wiU be
sent directly to the poiuts when* they are need

states Jjamtaiy Uuiuniibaioii is »ngaged m m
many points, and tno l'ltiaburgii Committee
cannot hesitate at any Uiue to give whatever
portion ol ihe funds or stores in its Judgment
may be needed for this object.
Ihe Commit tec hua already prospectively to*
propriated ten per cent of the net proceeds of
uie k air to the Soldiers’ Home, and bv another
resolution decided to reserve twenty-five tier
cent, for the tuture establishment of a perma
nent Home, citner for disabled soldiers or for
soldiers* orphans; “provided that the exi
gencies of the war shall not too pleasingly re
quire said reservation to bo expended for the
relief ol sick and wounded in the armies. 1 ’
Ihe Executive Committee of the 1-air and the
Sanitary Committee have entile cuuiideuce dn
the United Mates Sanitary Commission. Its
operations are conducted wisely, economically,
and with wonderful efficiency In the various
departments it has systematized for the relief
of the soldiers. It la a noble institution, wor
thy Ol H great people, and it appeals to nil—by
our love of country; by our duly to the men
who are defending us in‘-our lives, our proi>-
erty, and our homes;” by our sympathy for
Buffering humanitj - ; by our longings for suc
cess and honorable peace; and, above all bv
our gratitude to the Divine Author of good
who blesses so mauy or us with individual
prosperity in the midst of the nation’s calami
ty, to labor with zeal and contribute with lib
erality commensurate to the motives which ap

Mr. Chatoney has for sale a great variety of
machines, either of the Shuttle or spool kind.
His newly invented embroidering machine is
equal to anything we evar saw in the shape of
a sewing invention. Then, the elastic seam that
It sews is no less remarkable. Nearly all seams
made by machines of this kind will not stretoh
a hnirs-breadth without breaking the thread,
while the scam made with this one, whether
straight or bias, will streteh with the cloth, just
like knitting. There are also facilities for using
four, five or six threads at a time, just as tbe
embroidering demands.
Mr. Chatoney, Is willing to give fifty dolltos
reward to any person who will furuish a ma
chine equal in every respect to the one he has
for sale, called the “Two Spool Grover ABaker
Sewing Machine.” It Is called the two spool,
though any required number of threads can be
used.
We saw samples of embroidering and of elas
tic seams that we were really surprised to learn
were made with this machine without any ad
ditional labor. The perfection of this invention •
is truly astonishing and we trust wiU excite a
proper spirit of inquiry in regard to its merits,

FROM OUR FIRST EDITION.
Beauregard’s Force 2d,000 itb 30,-
000—The Attack on Butler
New Tore, May 23.— -The -Tribune's
Tenth corps i.dating
Thursday morning, sayaV-The rebels ad
vanced on our entrenched lineacross the
Peninsula, engaged our pickets, but
were driven. The firing on our skirmish
lines during the day was incessant. Our
wounded will probably number 150.
Towards dusk the rebels made a vigor
ous attempt to force our skirmishers
from the road, but without effect. Our
defences have been greatly strengthen
ed. Rebel deserters report the enemy’s
force 20,000 to 30,000 under General
Beauregard.
Last Thursday morning, rapid artil
lery firing commenced in our front, but
ceased soon after. It was probably a
temporary rebel battery in a ravine in
our front, pounding away at the woods
on their right, and dropping a shell or
two into our works. Fighting was ex
pected that day, as the rebels hope to
take our position.
[Note. —From Secretary Stanton’s
dispatch on Saturday last, it will be seen
that the rebel attattc did not take.place
till Friday.— Rep.]
The Repulse of Ewell’s Cprps.
New Yoke, May 23.—A Tribune cor
respondent states, that less than ten
thousand new troops repulsed three di
visions of Ewell’s Corps. At three
o’clock on Friday morning, Birney’s,
Crawford’s and Russel:’B divisions ad
vanced. Tho movement was so rapid
and unexpected that the rebel picket
line was captured almost to a man, and
sweeping on until over two niiles had
been gained and hundreds of prisoners
captured.
Prisoners state that Lee came with
them across the Ny river, rode along
their lines and addressed each brigade,"
telling th°m they wereito undertakes
movement, which if successful would be
fatal to the Yankees, and adjured them
to make it successful. He told them
they were close to our rich stores and
immense baggngo, and that a determin
ed assault would give them everything
we possessed.
ANTHOKr uarsa
Capture by a Gunboat Grew.
New York, May 23 —There are ho
specials of importance in the morning
-papers. The Fredericksburg correspon
dent of the Tribune states that three
gunboats were anchored there on the
way up the river. They sent an expedi
tion three miles into the country, cap
turing an Acting master in the rebel
navy. Three men were killed, and six
others including the Acting master cap-'
lured. They stated if our guboats had
Itcen two days later, they would have
been boarded and captured by a rebel
force organized for that purpose'
Lynchburg Heavily Fortified.
New York, May 33—,A World cor
respondent says that id the event of
Grant’s flanking Lee, as he will event
ually do, and that beyond peradventure
a fact which even Lee himself admits
by his undecided, movements, the rebel
army will fall back, contesting as it
goes, and at every strong position, to
the immediate vicinity, of Lynchburg,
which I now learn from a prisoner is
being heavily fortified according lo reb
el camp rumor, and will fight .the
main and decisive'battle of the war
there.
Late News from the Front.
New York, May 23.— A Times special
says there was no fighting since the reb
el attack on our mmtnunicauons with
Fredericksburg on Thursday. There is
every reason to believe that Friday and
Saturday’s movements will be speedily
found productive of results.
A rebel lieutenant states that Lee’s
army numbered, before the bottles, from
eighty to ninety thousand, and that he
has lost from twenty-five to twenty-eight
thousand. He also says that the rebel
army |ias plenty of provisions.
Attack on Fort Powhattan Re
pulsed.
Baltimore May 28.—A letter from
Fortress Monroe, dated the [2lst, states
that rebel cavalry had attacked Fort
Powhaitan, on James river, making
three charges, which were all repulsed,
with heavy loss and disorganization.
But slight loss on our side.
Important from Mexico.
San Francisco, May 19.—Acaphlco
advices of the 12th say, that the French
occupy but a narrow line from San Bias
to Vera Cruz and Tampico. It is surmis
ed the French Admiral does not ven
ture to occupy any other Pacific port,
because he wouldn’t be able to keep up;
communication with the interior.
