pon the same journey Some of them had no passed at all, and I undertook to intercedes with General Beauregard in behalf of a clergyman and his young daughter, (who intended administering spiritual con over the busy scene, it was urgent that I should make a move.--First of all, I started for Gen. Beauregard's headquarters; but to my surprise I was informed that he had removed, with his staff, to abled my way in and jogged along upon my knees. In a short time, I was brought in front of General Beauregard's headquarters, and felt relieved, for I know I should meet with the needful hospitality thad hitherto experienced both from the General and his staff officers After congratulating General Beauregard upon the remarkable victory he had achieved on Sunday, and interchanging a few remarks, I hard won victories and the stirring incidents connected with them? So will it be one day with Beauregard — for this has been pre-eminently his battle, and its success is mainly owing to his instrumen

Now Beauregard is within a few miles of Washington city, with an army variously estimated at had been recalled, it was said, with his troops, from Western Virginia.-- Gen. Beauregard has done it in opposition to Gen. Lee's advice. A successful expeditir, and tons upon tons of gunpowder are placed there. It was the intention of Beauregard to retreat, if driven back, until the Federal army had moved forward upon thewn up. Had the Federal forces got beyond Manassas last Sunday in safety, Beauregard admits that the rebel cause would have been lost forever.

Thus we have encountered all the strength and skill they can muster with a tithe of our strength, and without the employment y for striking an effective blow will be allowed wholly to slip by, and in the next place we cannot imagine that any but the gravest reasons could have impelled Beauregard to refuse permission to the Federal army to carry off its wounded, and to assume the delicate as well as onerous responsibility of caring for them himself. Thanconvenience of the arrangement, to an army whose hospital department is probably not the best supplied in the world, will also strike every one.

The approach of the enemy on our left up this road had been fully guarded against by the impediments and arrangements made by Gen. Beauregard at this bridge. To avoid them, the enemy turned west from the turnpike, some miles below the bridge, and passed through a large body of woods, cutting a narrow wagon road under, then turned in a Southern direction through farm belonging to t having my spirit stirred within me; but I assure you I have not exaggerated the account, and I doubt not ColSmart will see to it, that his young soldiers have full justice done them in his report of his command It is a great mistake, Mr, Editor, to suppose the enemy did not fight with firmness The day was only won by every man doing his duty, from Gens.
