Southern Account of the First Hattie
at Man Ran
LOUISVILLE, July 22.—A despatch from
Manassas to the Nashville Union, dated July
18, says that in the fight at Bull Run General
Beauregard comanded in person. The ene
my was repulsed three times in great confu
sion and with heavy loss. The Washington
Artillery, of New Orleans, with seven guns
engaged Sherman's battery of fifteen guns, and
after making a change in their position 'fifteen
times silenced them and forced them to retire
from the field.
Large quantities of arms were token. Our
loss was trifling. Major Harrison and two
privates were wounded. Federal officers of
high rank were killed, nod $7OO in gold woe
taken from the body of one of the killed.
GENERAL ARMY ORDERS
The fol Owing very impirtant general army
order is in the press. It will be seen that it
enables General Banks to assume Gen. Pat
terson's command before t1int . '47411,1nd.., when
the latter's term of service expires. This will
give General Patterson time to muster the
Pennsylvania volunteers out of service in
their own State: . -

and two rifled guns. Bull's run is be
yond.Centreville, and-near the- Junction,
and the retreating detachments from Fair
fax Court House, Centreville, and other
places, were thermgathered - , and during
the action were reinforced frormthe Junc
tion. The battle was without any practi
cal result, both parties maintaining their
position. Gen. Schenci's brigade has
been Bent to outflank the enemy, and in
tercept reinforcements from Johnston's
army.
On Friday, the advance was again com
menced. leaving the Bull's Run batteries
to the left, the supposed destination being
a point on the Manassas road, above the
Junction, thus cutting off communication
and supplies from Johnston, who was be
lieved to be approaching the Junction from
Strasburg. A dispatch received last night,
however, from Washington, alleges that
Johnston bad reached the Junction with
his army. If this be true the advance of
our troops to the left will open communi
cation with Patterson's command, which
will of course reinforce us on the enemy's
rear. If Johnston has not reached Ma
nassas, be will be cut off by McClellan's
army. A general battle is now hourly
looked for. The telegraph wires follow
McDowell'S army rapidly.

The•first great battle of the campaign
has been fought at Manassas , Junction,
aid has resulted in a victory of the reb
els, although the loss on both sides was
immense. The whole army of McDowel
engaged that of Beauregard, and the bat
t'e raged front early in the rimming until
the afternoon. A causeless and most ex
traordinary panic among the teamsters
and civilians communicated to the troops,
who broke and fled in utter confusion,
leaving all their artillery, seige train and
ammunition. They retreated to Arling:
ton Heights. The carnage is described
as frightful. On our first page we give
the despatohea received on Monday eve

sequent developments qualify the losses in
both killed and wounded very sensibly.
Let not the faint-hearted suppose that this,
although -IL disastrous, repulse, has dis
heartenedthe Union fibreep, or caused a
,particle of doubt as to o r ultimate -result
of this campaign. The War Department
has already accepted a

firmaiiiMi of the,news that Johnston had
marched to,reinforce Beauregard at Ma
nassas Junction. He took 'with him thir
ty thousand men, leaving four thousand
six hundred men to-defend the entrench-,
ments at Winchester: When we consider
that these thirty-four thousand six hun
dred Men were entrenched and fortified
at Winchester so formidably, and that
Patterson b,,ad but, twentpthree thousand
and a very inferior foice of artillery and
cavalry, it is clear that had the latter at
tacked the enemy he would have been dis
astrously-beaten. The mistake made on
all hands has been in terribly underrating
the numbers and strength of the enemy.
It was the case at Manassas, and for pot
falling a victim to a similar Jblunder at
Winchester, General Patterson deserves
praise rather than censure.
Major General Fremont has been sud

An official order from the War Depart

volunteer generals, of whom one is from
Indiana, three from Ohio, and two (Pat

western generals are under McClellan.
The war news caused a heavy fall in
stocks yesterday in New York and Phila
delphia.
The United States government applied
to the New York city banks yesterday for
a loan on sixty day Treasury notes. Two
and a half millions were at once furnished
at par.
Two more - Massachusetts regiments, the
12th and 13th, leave Boston this" week.
The retreat of the U. S. troops from
Manassas to Centreville was successfully
accomplished by 8 o'clock on Sunday
evening. There the stragglers were ral
lied, and after a rest till 1 o'clock the re
treat began to Arlington. In this fight
our army lost a large amount of provisions
Itnd ammunition, and about forty wagons.
All the positions taken in our previous ad
vance were occupied by the rebels as fast
as we left them, until after Fairfax Court
-11ouse was passed., when the pursuit was
nut continued.
In the late battle only about 20,000 of
our troops were engaged. Gen. McDowell
commanded the centre, Col. Hunter the
left, and Gen. Tyler .the right. On the
•rebel side the centre was commanded by
Jeff: Davis - himself, the left by Johnston,
and the right by Beauregard, who had his
horse shot under him.
At Louisville yesterday the news of the
defeat caused a depression of the Union
men, but they were resolute, and in an
affray one of the rebel leaders was shot
dead.
Sherman's battery, or the greater part
of it, has returned to Washington. The
other batteries were lost, because all the
horses were killed. Varian's New York
battery will be mustered out-of service at
New York to-day.
The disastrous news of Sunday's battle
has caused a great rush to the recruiting
stations in Philadelphia. So far from -dis
heartening our people, the desire of every
body hero is to raise a great force immedi
ately and to push the war to the utmost.
Col. Dare's Twenty-third Pennsylvania
regiment of vounteers arrived at Wash
ington on Tuesday, from Harper's Ferry,
their term of service being out. The re
giment will be reorganized for three years
under Col. D. B. Burbey, and recruited
to 1400 men. Most of the men will re
enlist. They look weather worn.

General Paxterson cannot in strictness
be said to have been superseded by Gen.
Banks, since his three months are up.—
Gen. Cadwalader has already retired from
the field 'which be has adorned. Gen.
Dix takes Gen. Banks' command'at Bal

In addition to the loss of this kind in
. . .
the last great battle, three Colonels of,
Ohio regiments were captured in Gen.
Cox's unfortunate expedition up thelcan
awha; and Col. Wm. D. Kennedy, com
manding the New York Tammany regi
ment, has died in Washington of over
exertion. Since, the commencement Of
the war, our loss . of regimental officers has
been heavy.
Our losses in the last conflict seem to
have been terribly exaggerated. It is now

ing last by we suppose, the " sad and
dreary old man," named therein. We
d6ply sympathize and commisserate him
in his lonely and wifeless journey through
life. And feeling it to be our duty to do
our utmost to alleviate sorrow and misery
wherever we "encounter it, we give him
the benefit of an insertion of this history
of his woes, hopirigohaf" s iorne fair dam-
Su:iel may take up the gauntlet, and put
an end to his misery—So mote it.be —En.
" Not long since an old man walked in
to our " sanctum sauctorutu" seized our
pen and paper, and without noticing , us,
busily engaged himself in writing.
The old fellow at last ceased to move
his pen, and vowed to be looking over
what he had written. Suddenly he rose,
handed us the paper, and by his gestures
—for he did not once speak—desired us,
to peruse what be had been so busily oc
cupied in writing. On, taking the paper
%%found it was an advertisement for a
wife. While we-Were reading, the "man
disappeared. •
The old fellow looked sicrand dreary.
While not publishing the advertisetheni,
`for prudential reasons, we 'still desire to
say to the-females of Carlisle, that any
one of them :wishing a husband can ob-'
