The attack on Baton Rouge.success of the Confederates. Mobile, Aug. 6th The Advertiserhas the following dispatch, dated Jackson, to-day. I am permitted by Gen. Van-Dorn to send you the following: One-Mile and a Half from Baton Rouge, August 5th, 1862. To General Van-Dora: Receiving a dispatch that the Arkansas would cooperate, I attacked Baton Rouge this morning at daylight, with less than 3,000 men. After a struggle of five hours, we drove the enemy from all points to the arsenal and lower, and to the cover of their gunboats, striking a number of prisoners, several flags and a considerable quantity of property. My diminished, exhausted force could not take the arsenal, and the troops almost perishing for water we have withdrawn one mile and a half from the city, but hope to resume the attack in half an hour. I think our loss has been as heavy as that of the enemy. Gen. Clarke is mortally wounded. Col. Hunt, of the 5th Kentucky, and Cola. Thompson and Alle

Lawton stopped at the Hermitage, who, with several of our officers, were most cordially received by Mrs. Andrew Jackson, Jr., and her sister, Mrs. Adams.

Forrest increased the enthusiasm and delight of the party, the ladies evincing the wildest joy and patriotism, and a "good time" prevailed generally. Mrs. Jackson, who has two of her sons in the Confederate army, expressed the strongest hopes of the early independence of our country, and bade God speed our men and our cause on the officers taking their leave.

Junction. To ascertain the truth of the report, and unmask the enemy's design, the command was moved across the country to strike this road at Massaponox Church, eight miles from Fredericksburg, which it reached about 12 o'clock on Wednesday morning. Here it was assertained that two brigades (Harche's and Gibbon's) two batteries of artillery, and cavalry in proportion, had passed during the night towards the Hanover Junction, evidently for the purpose of cutting off communication with Jackson. It was also ascertained that a train of we cons with some sixty or seventy soldiers had gun back towards Fredericksburg. The column halted before reaching the road, and the 3d regiment, under command of Lieut. Col. Thornton which was in the advance that day, was ordered to draw sabre — the 1st squadron, under Capt. Berkeley to pursue the wagon train, and the rest of the regiment to charge the rear of the main body. Most antly did they perform their work, turning to the right and left
