Brockenbrough and Private Jordan. None killed. The first Virginia Regiment. Camp near Centreville, Fairfax Co., July 25. Having had some opportunity of learning particulars of the battle of the 18th at Bull Run. I take the earliest opportunity of briefly communicating them to you. I believe they approximate more nearly to the truth than any that have yet been published. The statement in the Enquirer does injustice to Gen. Longstreet and the 1st Regiment--unwittingly, no doubt; but such misrepresentations ought to be corrected. Gen. Longstreet commanded in person, and displayed a courage and military

The late battles. The following letter, which does justice to two gallant officers who fought in the battle of the 18th, supplies an omission which was by no means intentional. It is gratifying to publish any record of personal bravery, and we will continue to furnish our readers with all facts as soon as they come into our possession: Manassas, July 27th, 1861.

This account has been furnished by one of his men, who says that his gallant bearing on the field inspired his company, one and all, with a determination to stand till the last man had fallen or victory won. We are happy to state, that both of these officers will probably be again at their posts in a short time, ready as before to meet the invaders of our soil and drive them back. Centreville. An incident of the battle. Norfolk, July 29, 1861. To the Editors of the Dispatch: I have heard many instances of the Manassas battle, but one of the most amusing was related to me by an eye-witness. He had ridden out on the Monday after the fight to view the scene of horror, when he came to the body of a New York Zouave having on a pair of shoes apparently new. While standing there, an Irishman of the Confederate Army approached, whose feet were incased in a pair of the aforementioned articles, pretty much the worse for wear. A
