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.

r paper, your correspondents are often so partial in their statements as to do injustice to brave officers and men by omitting any mention of their names. This will no doubt be remedied in the official reports. But, in the fight on Thursday at Bull Run, in which the enemy in large numbers was repulsed with a heavy loss to them, by the three Virginia Regiments under Longstreet, there are two glaring instances of omission that should be corrected at once.

This regiment went into the battle of Manassas 559 strong, and the following record shows the part these gallant men bore in the action: Col. Bartow and Lt. Branch (Adjutant) were killed, and Lt.

d in reserve, and exposed to a galling fire. Company H was placed at Blackburn's Ford, supporting the Warren Rifles. This was the point at which it was supposed the enemy would make the most vigorous efforts to cross; it was the most exposed position along the line, and for three hours and thirty minutes the companies named endured the hot and continuous fire of the enemy from the opposite hill. Company H made the first charge across the run, followed by a number of the Warren Rifles.--Capt. Boggs and his officers led us on, and each and every man exhibited the utmost coolness and daring. A number of the enemy fell before them, and several prisoners were brought in. When the fight was nearly over the reserve force of our brigade took the place of the First Regiment, who fell back. A few volleys of musketry were exchanged; the artillery on both sides, which had ceased firing, again opened upon each other; an almost incessant shower of grape from our side soon silenced the enemy's

to our men. The first battle at Bull Run was fought on Thursday, as you are already aware. On Wednesday, the 4th Brigade, commanded by General Longstreet, made a hasty march to Blackburn's Ford, on Bull Run Creek. The 1st Regiment, under Col. Moore, crossed the stream at this place, and bivouacked, having thrown out a strong picket, composed of companies B and K. The next morning the regiment was ordered to re-cross the Run, which we did, taking our position in a field — low table land —ound firmly. There was but little opportunity to individualize others of our brigade who were engaged, but the lamented Maj. Carter Harrison, of the Eleventh Regiment, and Major Munford, with others, were in the thickest of the fire. When Col. Moore was wounded, the command devolved on Lieut. Col. Fry, who from sickness and fatiguing duties in the most exposed points, towards the close of the battle sank down and had to be carried from the field, and continued sick for several days.--The c
