s command, (Magruder's division) and the capture is another proof of the vigilance and alertness of the Texan brigade, on this important section of our lines. For several days past the enemy have been engaged in felling timber near the late battle field of "Seven Pines," for the purpose of fortification and repair of roads. Our Generals being aware of these labors of the enemy, determined to stop them in a very summary manner, and accordingly yesterday morning the Loudoun battery, (Captain Rogers.) and Fayette Artillery, from this city. (Lieut. Clopton commanding,) supported by a detail from General Blanchard's brigade, opened fire vigorously upon the foe, drove in their pickets, and completely dislodged the enemy from the surrounding woods. If the Federalists ever entertained the notion that our artillery could not act in wet weather, the idea must have been dis pated by the brisk and effective cannonade of yesterday morning, during the drenching rain. The artillery of Hampto

hat he has been employed to enforce the recent order of Pope in that county. On Saturday week he sent to Harper's Ferry for one hundred men, to aid him in carrying out that order. Some three weeks ago three companies of Federal cavalry were sent to Leesburg, and their Quartermaster announced their intention to remain there. They had been there but a few days when a report reached the town that the Confederate cavalry were in Snickersville, in the upper end of the county, and they left in great haste. It turned out that the cavalry at Snickersville was a company of their own. The Rev. Mr. Nourse, who, with Gen. Rogers and others, was arrested some time ago, and afterwards exchanged, has been greatly annoyed by Means and his party, who have repeatedly threatened his arrest. Knowing the vindictive and malignant spirit by which Means was actuated, Mr. N., to avoid arrest, though once regularly exchanged, left Leesburg on Saturday week, and is now beyond the tyrant's reach.

road yesterday, but we learn via Lynchburg that Pope is still retreating and had arrived at Brandy Station about mid way between Culpeper C. H. and the Rappahannock river. His rear was much annoyed by our cavalry, who had captured several prisoners, and killed and wounded many of the retreating Yankees. It is stated that there are 3,500 Yankees in Culpeper county. Among the wounded Yankees at Charlottesville Maj. Jas Savage, of the 2d Massachusetts. He is a brother of the wife of Prof. Rogers, formerly of the University of Virginia. One of their officers, Lieut. Helwach, of the Pennsylvania Zouaves, asked to be parbled — desired the Captain of the post to release him on parole, saying that his company had been disbanded before the battle in Culpeper, and that he had used his best efforts to be kept out of the fight. He was informed that that was his misfortune, but it was not the fault of the Confederate Government. He was found in bad company, and now he must suffer the pen

ry's division, composed of Phifer's, Cabell's, and perhaps Morris brigades, will not muster more than one brigade. Cabell's brigade has not more than 450 men left. Gen. Martin, of the 4th brigade, (chiefly Mississippians,) was killed. Also, Col. Rogers, of Texas, and Col. Wirt Adams, of Mississippi. Gen. Moore is reported killed. Gen.Cabell was injured by a fall from his horse. Ten thousand fresh Federal from Bolivar harassed Manry's division, which was in advance in the retrograde mov The enemy fought determinedly, and were maneuvered splendidly. Rosecranz commanded in person. Our army are perfectly safe, and no fears are entertained of their being followed by the crippled Yankees. We will be quickly organized and ready for another combat. The killing of Cols. Rogers and Adams and Gen. Moore is contradicted. Lieut. Sam Farrington, of Capt. Wade's battery, St. Louis, is among the killed. He fell in the heat of battle nobly discharging a soldier's duty.

ral thousand stand of arms, thrown away by the rebels in their flight. They are mostly new and of English make. Our loss, it is believed, will be three hundred killed and one thousand wounded. Many houses in the town were badly shattered by shot and shell. On Sunday General Ord drove the enemy five miles over hills and through woods and valleys, the rebels taking advantage of every wood for their infantry, and every hill for their artillery. The fight lasted seven hours. The rebel Gen. Rogers was killed. Gen. Oglesby has died of his wounds. Gen. Ord is slightly wounded. Prisoners taken say their effective force in the vicinity is 65 000 men. This is probably an over-estimate; but it is certain that they have outnumbered us two to one. Gen. Grant in an official dispatch, dated the 5th of course not so late as the one published above says: Rosecrans telegraphs that the loss is serious on our side, particularly in officers, but bears no comparison with that of

Attempt to escape from prison. --A conspiracy on the part of a number of the prisoners to escape from Castle Thunder was discovered on Wednesday night. The parties had made a long rope of cotton sheets and had gotten everything ready to let Rogers (who is condemned to be shot on Saturday) out of a window, when they were discovered, and put in the dungeon. One fellow, who proved very obstreperous, was undergoing the bucking process yesterday evening. It is not certainly known that Rogers a window, when they were discovered, and put in the dungeon. One fellow, who proved very obstreperous, was undergoing the bucking process yesterday evening. It is not certainly known that Rogers initiated the movement, but it is believed that his friends in the prison did so to help him. --We learn that efforts are constantly being made to escape from this prison, and that it is only by unceasing vigilance that they are prevented. The next party discovered trying to get out are to be shot.
