Tbere has been a great deal said about the lou or the traitor army, ind l.y rending the blowing our readers will find that their low waa terrible; numbering thousands, ** more than double thnt of ours. This description wos published in the Atlanta., Ga., Confedtrary, and written by> its special correspondent. Rend it Army or the Potomac, Manassas, July 22, 1861.— Yesterday, Uia 21«t ilar of July, 1801, a gieat battle was fought and a great victory won by lite •Confederate troops. Heaven smiled on .our arms, and the Gotl of bntlleri crown-d-d our banners with laurels of glory. Let every palriotiu heart giro thanks .to the Lord of Hosts (or the victory He lias given His people on his own holy dlny, the blessed Sabbath. Gen. Johnston had arrived the preceding day with about half or the force lie had, detailed from Winchester, and was the senior officer in command. He . ^ magnanimously insisted, however, thut Gen. Beauregard's previous plans should be carried out, and he was guided entirely by the judgment and superior lo•cal kuowledge of the latter. M hile, therefore, Gen. Johnston was nominally in command, Beauregard was really the offiber and hsro or the day. ^ ou will be glad to leurn that ha was this day - ..1 f _ l*.:n.,i;nr i,, (tin milk

advanced from Brigadier j of a full General. , At half past six In tho morning, the eat-mv opaned fire from » battery plan- ^ ted on a hill beyond llnll Ran, and near- j ly oppoaitg the centre of our lines. The battery was intended merely to ' , • licat the bush," and to occupy our attcntion while he moved a heavy column toward the Stone Bridge, over the same j \ Creek u|»on our left. At 10 o'clock another battery was pushed forward, and a-, opened fire a short distance to the left of the other, and near the road leading north to Ceotreville. This was a bnttcry of rifled guns, and the object of its , (ire was the same as that of the other. They fired prom'scuoasly into the woods 1 oml gorges ou this side of Bull Run. j seeking to create the impression thereby, that onr centre would be attacked, . and thus prevent us from sending rein- ! forcemeats to onr left, where the reel attack was to be maue. Beauregard was not deceived by the mantenvre. It might not be amiss to say, that Hull Run, or creek, U north or this i |jl»ce, and runs nearly due east, slightly curving around the Junction, the nearest part of which U about three and a half < wiles. The Blone Bridge is some sev. ; r en miles distant, in a north westerly di- ; notion, upon which «ur left wing res- | * ted. Mitchell's ford is directly north, [ and distant four miles, by the rwd lea<)- j Ing-to Centrerille, which is seven miles i from the Junction. Ou out right is

Union Mills, on the sage stream, wbete . ti the Alexandria and Manassas Railroad ) si ■■ crosses the Run, and distant four miles ti Proceedmg from Fairfax Court House, j n by Centre ville, to Stone Bridge* the j I enemy passed in front of onr entire ti 1 line, bot a distance ranging from Gve to i 1 two miles. 11 ; At «J o'clock, I reached an eminence ; r ' nearly opposite the two batteries men- n tioned above, and which commanded ad 1 full vieW of the country for miles around | e except on the right. Prom this point u I could trace the moremrtits of the np- c preaching host* by the clouds or dust that t rose high above tfir'siirronnding hills. ; t Our left, under Brigadier-Oenerals c Kvans, Jackson and Cocke, nnd Col- < Bartow, with the Georgia Brigade, com- t IHised of the Seventh and Eighth Regi- 1 ' mcnts, had been put in motion, and was advancing upon the enemy with a force < ' of about 15,000, while the enemy liim- , i , self was advancing upon our left with a i ( compact column of at least 50,000. . * I His entire force on this side of the Po1 tomac la estimated at 75,000. These i approaching colomns encountered each i lfJ other at 11 o'clock. i n Meanwhile, the two batteries in freht i e ; kept up their Jfire upon the wooded hill . where they supposed our centre lay. | s They sent occasional balls, from their rilled, cannon, to the eminence where j '' your correspondent stood. Generals • " ! Beauregard, Johnston and Jlonham . i- 1 reached this point at 12, anj one of | j\those balls passed directly over and very near them, and plunged' into the ground ( a few paces from where I stood. ' At a quarter past 12, Johnston nnd liaaurcgard galloped rapidly forwird in ^ the direct ion of Stone Bridge, where , the hall had now folly opened. " The artillery were the first to open 1 fire, precisely at 1 1 o'clock. By liulf past 1 1, the infantry had engaged, and '* ' then It was that the battle began to j rage. The dusky coluipns which bad I thus far marked tho approach of the . two ormies, now mingled with great " i clouds of smoke, as it rose from flashing d j gnus below, and the two shot up to- ! gethcr like a huge pyramid of red ami * blue. The shock was as tremendous as " were the odds between the two (orces • With what anxions^Icnrls did we watch I " I that pyramid of siuoke and dost ? When a I it moved to right, we knew tho enemy *' J were giving wsy ; and when it moved ! * ' to the left, we knew thnt cur friends ' i were receding. Twico the pyramid ' | moved to the right and as often returned. .At last nhiaitt. torn n'elni'li. it beiran to | At o'clock, it to 1 1

, iuoto slowly to tin loft, and thus it con- 1 ■ tinned to move for two mortal hours. j ^ The enemy was seeking to turn our I left flank, and to reach the railroad 1 . hence in the direction of Win- 1 , cheater. To do this, ho extended his ' ! lines, wfiich he was enabled to do by ' reason of his great numbers. This was 1 | unfortunate (or us, as it required a corI responding extension of our own lines • to prevent his extreme right from oat- 1 ! flanking ns — a movement on our pnrt ' I which weakened tfie force of our re**- 1 ; tanee along the whole lino of battle, ; which finally extended over a apace of 1 two miles. It also rendered it the more difficult to bring up reinforcements, as ' the farther the enemy extended his right, j ' i tho greater the distancoour reservo forces hod to travel to counteract the movement. ' | This, effort to turn our flank was ; ' pressed with great determination for five , long, weary hohrs, during which the tick or battle ebbed and flowed along tbe entire line with alternate fortunes.! l;Thfi enemy's column continued , 1 streoth away to the left, like a huge uua- '' ; con do, seeking to envelope us within its " ! mighty folds and ernsh ns to death ; and at one time it really looked as if be ! would tucced. * ' The raomeuthe discovered the enemy's ; " order of battle, Gen. Beauregard, it is said, dispatched orders to Gen. Ewell, , e ! on onr extreme right, to move forward * nnd. turn his left or rcaf. A* b*™®

he ordered Geuerul Jones, Long- ' li and Bonham, occupying the ccn- ti of our lines, to co-operate in this tl movement, but not to move until Gen. li Ewoll had made the attack. The order tl to Gen. Ewcll unfortunately miscarried. C orders were delivered, but as the u movements of the centre were lo be « regulated entirely- by those on the rigW,^ « nothing was done at all. Had the or- 1 tiers to Gen. Ewell been received and c carried out, and our entire force brought f1 upon the field, we should have destroy- u led' the enemy's army almost literally. i> Attacked in front, on the flank, and in j the rear, he could not possibly have es- c capcd, except at the low of thonsands a of prisoners and all his bfUerie*, while i a the field would hove been strewed with j | ; dead. : I Finding bis orders hod ii* some way \ failed to be executed, Gen. Beauregard t j at last ordered up a portion 6f the for- i i ces which were intended to co-operate I with Gen. Ewell. It was late however I ' before these reinforcements come up. i Only one brigade reached tbe field before ' the battle was won. This was led by General E. K. Smith, of Florida, for- i mcrly in the United States army, and ■ was part of Gen. Johnston's column i from Winchester Tliey should have reached hero the day before, but acre prevented by an accident on the rail- ! road. They dashed on the charge with , load shouts and in the most gallant ' style. About the same time Major El7.ey coming down tho railroad from Winchester with the last of Johnston's • brigades, and hearing the firing, iinmcdialclj quit the train snd struck across the country, and encountered the ex- • ■ trerae right of the enemy ns ho was feeling his way around our flank, and i 1 witk his brigade struck him like a thunderbolt- full in the face. Finding lie | was about to be outflanked himself, the i enemy gave way after the second fire. I : Meanwhile Beauregard rallied the . ecu I re, and dashed into the very thickt est of the fight, and after him rushed . our own bravo boys, with a shout thnt ! seemed to shake the very earth. The I result of this movement from three disj , tincto points, was to force buck the enemy, who began to retreat, first in good , order, and finally in much confusion. , At this point the cavalry were ordered f upon the pursuit. The retreat now be1 ' came a perfect rout, and it is reported „ that the flying legions rushed past Cen1 treville in the direction of Fairfax, as if the earth had been opening behind » i them. It was when Gen. Beauregard U was wncn UIU, ucauicgniu

' the final charge, that his horse was | killed by a shell. j 4. We captured thirty four guns, including Sherman's famous battery, a large uoptber of small arms, thirty wagons loaded with provisions, Ac., and about seven hundred prisoners. Among the i latter were Gen. Buruside, of the Rhode | Island Brigade, Corcoran, of the New j York Irish Zooaves ; Hon. Mr. Ely, member of Congress from New ^York ; Mr. Carrington, of this State, a nephew of the late Wo. 67 "iVcston, who { had gone over to the enemy, and thirty- j two Captains, Lieutenants, ic. We cante near bagging the Hon. Mr. Fos- 1 Its, Senator from Cfeanecticut. | The official report* of the aasualitics of the day have not yet come in, and coo*eqneuty It is impossible to say what ' oar loss is. £ can only venture an opin- ' iottv and that t», that we lost in killed, ' wounded nnd missing, about 1500 — of . | wlych about four hundred were killed. , The enemy's loss waa terrible, being, at , ■ the lowest cakulotioov 3000. . ( Thus far I have said but liUle of the ' pnrVtakcn by particular officers and rog- | : imebU ; for the reason that I desire first . to obtain all the facta. Nor hate I said { anything of the gallant Seve'nth and , j Eighth Regiments from Georgia. This s 1 part or my duty is piost melancholy. ! It may be enough to say. that they were 1 1 the only Georgia Regiments here at c ' lite Uuie,. that they were nrnoug the cari-

in the fiejd, and in tfie thickest of i the fight, nnd thut their praise is upon ' the lips of the whole army, from Gen. ; Beauregard down. Col. Gartrell led j the Seventh Regiment, and Lieutenant- 1 OArdner the Eighth, tlto whole under tho command pf Col. Bartow, ! who had led thent with a gallantry that .^was never' excelled. It was when the Brigade was ordered to tnke one, of th® enemy's strongest batteries, that it sufmost. It was a most desperate ; undertaking, and followed by the bloodj results. The battery occupied the top of a hill j on the opposite side of Boll Run, with j small piece of woods on the left. Do- ! standing the valley along the Run, be ' proceeded under cover of the* hill to gain the woods alluded to/ and from which he proposed'to moke a dash at the battery and capture it. On reach- , ! the woods lie discovered that the . was supported by a heavy infantry fqree, estimated at four thousand meg! This wholo force, together with ; the battery, was tamed upon the Eighth Regiment, which was in the van, with terrific effect. Indeed, he was exposed i on the flank and in front to n fire thnt the oldest veterans could not have stood. , The balls and shells from the battery, . And tlic buligts Jroiu the smnll arms, lit1 orally riddltd the woods. Trees six inches in diameter, and great limbs were cut off, and the ground strewn with the wreck. It became necessary to retire the Eighth Regiment in order to reform' it. Meanwhile, Col BartojxlA-dforse • had been shot from under Kim. li was observed that tjle foreos with ■ ■ which his movement ^jfas.to be suppor- > ted hod not come up. But it was enough I that lie hud been orderedAoeslcrni the ■ buttery; so, plac.ii^ hkiilseUj aClbedlCTtl- • of the Seventh Uejftfneiji^ie nguin led : the charge, this time on foot, nnd galloittly encouraging his men ns they rushl ed on. The first discharge from the - enemy's guns killed the regimental color 1 bearer. Bartow immediately seized the t flag, and again putting himself in front, L' j dashed on, flag in hand, his voice ring - | ing clear over the battle-field, and snv- • ; ing, "On, my boys, we will die rnthet 1 ; than yield or retreat." And on the • j brave btfys did go, and faster Uew tin d ) enemy's bullets. The fire was awful, '• Not less than -1000 muskets were pour d ing their fatal contents upon them i- while the battery itself was deuliii^ is j death on e very side. d ! The gallant Eighth Regiment, whid d had already passed through the distress nail nircaity pnsseu tnrougn me uisiressp

! ing ortlcal, again rallied, determined to stand by their chivalric Colonel to the j last. The tnore furious the fire, the quicker became the advancing step of the two regimeuts. At lust, and just ■ ! when they were uenriug tbe goal of their ' hopes, and almost in tbe arms of victory, 1 the brave and noble Bartow was shot ' | down, the ball striking him in the left 1 1 breast, just abovo the Iwart. Colonel : ' Bartow died soon after ho was borne ' , from theUcM. His last words, as re- ' ! peated to mo, were : — "They have kill- ' ' ! cd me, my brave boys, but neves give : ! up tbe ship — well whip theio yet." And so-we did.s A native ef the Emerald We- lately wont j j to ooosull rite printer of a newspaper re- j I upecliiig his runaway apprentice.
