A rebel's letter.--The following letter was taken by one of the pickets of Col. Gordon's Regiment, (the Massachusetts Second.) It shows that the privates as well as the Generals of the rebel army can tell big stories:
camp Jackson, Manassas Junction July 23, 1861.
Dear mother and friends:--I am safe yet, and have nothing of any consequence to complain of, which is more than many a fellow-soldier can say.
I suppose you have heard what an awful battle we had down here last Sunday.
I was not in it — as it so happened I could not get with my regiment, and glad I am I was not. This morning I went out on the battle-field, and, hard-hearted as you term me, I was horror-struck at the sight.
Men (Yankees) lying around in every direction, dead and wounded.
I suppose I must have seen at least 500 men and 200 horses — some places as many as six horses lying side by side.
It is supposed their loss is over 5,000 men killed and wounded, and they took somewhere near 1,000 live Yan

Wade Hampton (search for this): chapter 15
Col. Hampton, upon having his horse shot from under him, seized a rifle, and said, Watch me, boys; do as I do.
He then shot down successively several of the Federal officers who were leading their forces against him. Gen. Beauregard then came up, and said, Take that battery.
Just at that moment the flag of the legion was shot down.
Beauregard said, Hand it to me; let me bear the Palmetto flag.
He did bear it in the fury of the fight.
Col. Johnson, of the legion, was slain in the charge.
The Hampton Legion promised to defend the flag presented to them by the ladies of the Palmetto State while one of them remained to step the field of conflict.
That this promise will be sacredly redeemed, no one will doubt, when he comes to learn that of the eight hundred who went into the field on Sunday, one hundred and ten sealed their fidelity with their blood, that being the number of their killed and wounded, according to the unofficial reports.--Richmond Whig, July 24.
