illery firing. Rodes's division consisted of five brigades, to-wit: Paniel's, Iverson's and Ramseur's North Carolina brigades, Doles's Georgia brigade, and Rodes's escent into the hollow of the creek. Rodes formed his old brigade and that of Iverson into line on the top of the ridge, and placed Doles to the left, near the Midd a gap from the others. Daniel was in line three hundred yards or more behind Iverson's right, to protect that flank. Ramseur was in reserve, and the 5th Alabama wated in the repulse which that brigade sustained, advanced to hold the line of Iverson's and O'Neill's brigades. The remnant of Iverson's old brigade formed on the Iverson's old brigade formed on the right of Ramseur under Capt. D. P. Halsey, A. A. G. of the brigade, whose gallantry and good conduct were quite remarkable, and who assumed command of the brigade whmy were driven back towards and into the town. Doles, advancing parallel with Iverson and O'Neill but with a gap of five or six hundred yards intervening, came up w

Boonsboro', opened upon them. Our artillery, however, soon got into position and drove the enemy's artillery off. Our cavalry saw no more of the enemy until they approached Hagerstown. On nearing this place Gen Jenkins found the enemy in possession, and attempted to flank him by the Boonesboro' road Jones at this moment came in upon the left and opened with a few shots of artillery. Brig Gen Iverson at the same time held the north edge of the town, aided by Robertson and Chambliss. Iverson's men, by some mistake, fired into Robertson's and Chambliss's, thereby much embarrassing operations for a while. The mistake was soon corrected. The enemy's dismounted sharpshooters fought well, but were rapidly driven from street to street, and finally left via the Williamsport road. One column of the cavalry under Chambliss pushed rapidly down the road after them, whilst Robertson and Jenkins kept the left of the road on which Chambliss was passing, and moved parallel to him Just befo

on Monday last. The highest estimate of our loss, from all causes, is from twenty-five hundred to three thousand; while that of the enemy is represented as much heavier, we having used artillery upon them at short range with great effect. Indeed, that the carnage was terrible, may be inferred from their own accounts, which do not generally magnify matters of this sort. Among our casualties, not heretofore noted, are the following Brigadier-General Johnston, of North Carolina, commanding Iverson's old brigade, killed; Colonel Funk, reported mortally wounded; Lieutenant- Colonel William P. Moseley, Twenty-first Virginia, severely wounded; Sergeant John H. Worsham, acting adjutant in the same regiment, wounded in the knee; Major Bennett, Fourth Virginia, wounded; Captain Charles Campbell, of Harrisonburg, killed; Captain William B. Yancey, of Rockingham, severely wounded in the thigh, and Captain R. N. Wilson, of Pegram's staff, wounded. General Early and one of his aids, Lieutenant

ange (Georgia) Bulletin says: Atlanta is now garrisoned by General Slocum and the Twentieth Yankee army corps. General Iverson, last Thursday, captured East Point and drove the enemy's pickets beyond Whitehall, which place General Iverson heldGeneral Iverson held for several hours; and from there he could plainly overlook Atlanta and its garrison of blue coats. All the stories about the evacuation and burning of Atlanta are false. General Iverson captured fifty wagons at East Point, in splendid condiGeneral Iverson captured fifty wagons at East Point, in splendid condition, together with an immense quantity of extra harness. There were also near there — there and thereabouts — the wreck and debris of seventy-five burned army wagons and a hecatomb of equine bones. One of the captured wagons was loaded with baconas and Slocum. The two first have gone in the direction of Chattanooga. The last is in Atlanta, closely guarded by General Iverson's cavalry, which captures of kills every Yankee who shows himself outside of the trenches. In addition to the loss

Heavy musketry firing was kept up on that line for an hour on Saturday night. From Petersburg there is no news of interest. The two armies at the South. There is not much to be gathered from the Georgia papers about the armies of Sherman or Hood. The assault upon Atlanta on the 8th seems to have been made under the mistake that the city was weakly defended. This mistake being set right by finding a vigorous resistance, the assault was given up. Our troops attacked, under General Iverson, about sunrise, and drove the enemy from a redoubt on the south side of the town, but were in turn forced back. On the east side, General Lewis drove the enemy into their fortifications; but, as they showed a good line, the assault was not pressed. It turned out, after the skirmishing was over, that the enemy had about twenty thousand men under General Slocum. The Yankees were about evacuating the city preparatory to Sherman's great march, and some of the Yankees said they were going

s issued by Commander Shubrick, President of the Light-house Board, the light-vessels belonging to the Upper and Lower Cedar Points, in the Potomac river, have been withdrawn from their stations for the winter. Due notice will be given of their replacement. Pardons. The number of applications for pardon at the office of the Attorney-General has very much diminished. About one hundred and fifty petitions for amnesty were received this morning from Alabamians, among them that of Mr. Iverson, ex-United States Senator. Very few pardons are being granted, and nearly all of them are to citizens of Texas, the other States having received pardon for most of their people who applied for amnesty. There are yet several thousand applications on file, however, many of which will not be disposed of for some time. Speaker Colfax not an Aspirant. Hon.
