Wounded. We have not heretofore noticed that both Gen. Early and his aid, Capt. S. H. Early, were wounded slightly — struck by spent balls — in the fight at Cedar Run, on Saturday week. Gen. Early's horse was disabled by a shot also. The same horse was shot through the head at Williamsburg where the General was so painfull We have not heretofore noticed that both Gen.

At 12 M., we commenced our cannonading, which was feebly responded to by the enemy, who did not seem ready for the engagement, which they had affected to challenge. Indeed, some strategy seemed necessary to bring them to fight. About 3 P. M. Gen. Early's brigade (Ewell's division) made a circuit through the woods, attacking the enemy on their right flank, the 13th Virginia regiment being in the advance as skirmishers. At 4 o'clock the firing began, and soon the fight became general. As Gen.was so, they gained nothing, for Gen. Jackson, having determined not to hazard a battle with the vastly superior forces the enemy would have, also occupied the time to purpose, sending backward all his trains and his rear troops; and at nightfall Early's brigade, which was the outpost, quietly followed them, hugging closely the mountain till well out of danger of attack. Never was a retreat effected with better order. Strategically, it ranked with the masterly march and unexpected attack. Ou
