Abe Puts the foot down Firmly again. --Mrs. Buckley, a New. York Fifth Avenue lady, went to Washington lately — before Manassas was fought, be assured — to procure a reprieve for Collins, Featherstone and Dunleavy, convicted of the murder of George W. Pike, captain of the ship General Parkhill. --The interview between herself and Lincoln is thus described in a letter to the Boston Journal. Abe, it will be seen, adheres to his maxim, that it "is necessary to put the foot down firmly sometimes," notwithstanding he has been admonished so often of the danger of planting his preposterous and cumbersome feet upon hot places: On gaining an interview, she said to the President that she had come to place before him some of the circumstances connected with the case of the unfortunate men imprisoned in the Toombs in New York, and that she hoped-- As she uttered these words, Mr. Lincoln involuntarily started back, and with a manner that expressed the greatest determination and fir

ble quick for two and a half miles, through woods and marsh, and over hill and valley, until nearly wearied out.--The 18th joined on the right flank and the line of battle was formed on the 8th Virginia. The whole was under the command of Colonel Featherstone, the senior Colonel. Just at this time the 8th Virginia made as gallant and as brave a charge as was ever made in the world, and which attracted the admiration of the whole force. The regiment was accompanied by the "Pettus Rifles," Captl ravine or depression, making the lot nearly cup-shaped. The Federals had drawn up their artillery, and planted two howitzers and a large rifled gun in a position to play upon the hill opposite. As soon as our men came out of the woods, Colonel Featherstone, in a load voice, cried out, "Mississippians, charge those Yankees; take their battery; drive them into the Potomac or into eternity." With most terrific yells the men charged up the hill, driving the Federals terrified before them. The V

r fishing them from the water. During the retreat the Yankees stopped upon the bank of the river and stripped off their clothing. Every man threw his gun away; some their coats and blankets. By wading into the stream excellent muskets could be found in great numbers. I saw several fine "Belgian" and "London Tower" guns fished up from the bottom. One man got a fine pair of shoes and a splendid oil-cloth. It is difficult to estimate the amount of property captured in this affair. Colonel Featherstone's account is correct as far as the arms goes, but there were other things which the soldiers got, and which were not turned over to the Adjutant General. The object of this expedition is very clear to my mind, and I am inclined to believe that the "Baltimore and Ohio" Railroad lay at the bottom of it. By holding Leesburg and the adjoining country, the Railroad would be entirely in Federal hands, and could be kept in use through the winter in transporting Government stores. The g

hat the enemy crossed the Chickahominy in large numbers is already known coming up on the Williamsburg road, they up entrenchments near Barker's farm and posted themselves behind fallen trees, of bushes, and the breastworks. Saturday morning it was determined to attack and two divisions were sent down the Williamsburg road for the purpose. General division led the advance supported by Longstreets. As soon as the enemy a cotton was reached Gen. Hill prepared for a vigorous attack. Featherstone's brigade led the advance. It was commanded on the occasion by Col. Anderson, the General being ill in the city. Garland's brigade commenced the attack on the left, and in a few minutes the engagement became general. After two fighting our men drove the Yankees from their camps. This brigade then, in parish of the original plan, deployed right left of the enemy's works, our artillery are commenced to play on them. In the 4th North Carolina, out of 29 officers, four were killed inst

Gen. Garland was reinforced by the brigade of Gen. Featherstone, commanded on this occasion by the Senior ColoCarolina State Troops. I will state here that Gen. Featherstone had been in the city for several days, confineand was actively engaged in the thick woods when Featherstone's (Col Anderson's) brigade advanced to its suppoeld on the left of the Williamsburg road, and as Featherstone's brigade came up, the 4th North Carolina, underead of praise. Col. Anderson, who commanded Featherstone's brigade, behaved with the most distinguished g army, and would grace any rank. The staff of Gen. Featherstone accompanied Col. Anderson on the field. Capt.two horses shot under him. The brigade of Gen. Featherstone is one of the best in the army, and is capablehe late fight, of doing further good service. Gen.

the neck, seriously; C Pervis, in throat, slightly; C B Pritchard in the shoulder; A D Proctor, left leg broken. The aggregate of the Regiment when it entered the field was 370. Number killed, wounded and missing . The Regiment was under the fire of the enemy's guns hours. I see in your issue of the 2nd ult., you speak of the 28th Georgia being deployed as skirmishers with a Miss Battalion. Such was not the case, it entered regularly into the engagement with the Brigade, (Gen. Featherstone's) to which it was attached. I see a mistake was also made in the number of the Regiment, the 12th Georgia being spoken of for the 28th Georgia, which, I have no doubt, was a typographical error. In justice to that gallant Regiment. I take occasion to say it is now under the command of our hero, Gen. Stonewall Jackson, and has been in more battles and done harder fighting, than any other Regiment from our State. T O Wi Adjt. 28th Regt. Ga. Vol. Casualties in the
