e what by patriotic principles, but were I a gambler I should have no objection to lay heavy adds — I think those are the words — that the cow and the chickens would absorb all minor considerations. One man, the intellectual and moral calibre of whose mind is far from being of the most exalted order, thus writes from Norwalk to his "friend Charles:" "I want You to come home. don'ts You enlist in any dammed cavalry, to H — I with them when Your time is up come home," &c. I must make a hictus here, as the context in the foul for ours polite. I fear I have exhausted your patience with this latter. What I shall have to say next will wear a more sombre aspect, although I has no reason why the ridiculous and the serious should not walk side by side. There is more between compromising opposites, believed me, than many would suppose. However, in my next I shall give you the impressions; I have formed during my visits to the battle-fields of Bull's Run and Manas

on never before beheld. It was expected that the Federal troops would be defeated at Manassas, but that they would meet with such a complete rout as they did at Bull Run, did not, I am sure, occur to many of the most sanguine friends of the South, it being a mere outpost engagement on the side of the Confederates. On Sunday nce any popular gathering ever held. At this meeting every man in New York will be present. All those who have lost a father, brother, uncle, son or nephew, at Bull Run, will be there, demanding justice and a strong government. * * It is the purpose of the Union Defence Committee, in a series of resolutions, to demand a change ithe face, and endeavored to account for the picture presented. Congress and the newspaper were charged with the awful responsibility of the failure on Sunday at Bull Run. The President leaned wholly upon the judgment of his great military chieftain, General Scott. The latter said:"I am the greatest coward in the army, and ought

r paper, your correspondents are often so partial in their statements as to do injustice to brave officers and men by omitting any mention of their names. This will no doubt be remedied in the official reports. But, in the fight on Thursday at Bull Run, in which the enemy in large numbers was repulsed with a heavy loss to them, by the three Virginia Regiments under Longstreet, there are two glaring instances of omission that should be corrected at once. Captain W. H. Delaney, of the Fairfax RRockbridge Artillery.--Lieut. Brockenbrough and Private Jordan. None killed. The first Virginia Regiment. Camp near Centreville, Fairfax Co., July 25. Having had some opportunity of learning particulars of the battle of the 18th at Bull Run. I take the earliest opportunity of briefly communicating them to you. I believe they approximate more nearly to the truth than any that have yet been published. The statement in the Enquirer does injustice to Gen. Longstreet and the 1st Regim

[from the New York Herald, 26th.] The disclosures of Mr. Richardson, of Illinois, in the debate in Congress on Wednesday, on this disastrous affair at Bull Run, relieve General Scott of the responsibility, and clearly fix it upon the shoulders of the President. General Scott does not say so, but the inference is clear Daily News.] The mischievous person who presides over the columns of the Daily Times has by some blunder managed to tell the public some truths.

The principal attack was made by the enemy about four miles to the west of the battle of the 18th, and on our extreme left By looking on a good map you will see a turnpike road lain down running from Fairfax Court House up to Warrenton, (Fanquer C H) and that about fifteen miles from Fairfax Court House this turnpike crosses Bull Run by a stone bridge. 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 l
