Camp on Wilson Crf.ek, )
August 10, 1861. )
General.—I have the honor to report that
about breakfast, the enemy opened one of their
batteries upon my camp. Being in an open
field and exposed to a raking fire of grape
and shell and not supported by any of our own
batteries, I fell back to the woods, and there
formed my Regiment, I then moved down the
road in the direction of Springfield. Having
reached the hollow I was met by an Aid of
Gen. Price asking for a reinforcements to
come to the support of Gen. Slack. I insbant
lv moved up my Regiment to his aid ainid a
shower of grape and musketry, and teok my
position on his left, and ordered my men to
commence firing. We disputed the ground
there with the enemy inch by inch for three
or four hours amidst a most terrific fire from
thpir battery posted on the hill (supposed to
be Totten’s) and continued volleys of musket
ry. I then encountered the forces commanded
by Genl. Lyons in person, mostly all regulars
with a regiment of Iowa troops. The battle
raged fiercely and the firing scarcely ceased
for a moment. The contest seemed doubtful.
At times we would drive them up the hill and
in turn they would rally and eause us to fall
back. At length we give a shout, made a gallant
charge and drove them over the hill. At this
moment the Louisiana Regiment and Colonel
Dockery’s flanked them upon my left, made a
charge and drove them completely from the
field. This was the last position they aban
doned and the last stand they made. In the
engagement I had two horses shot under me.
The Adjutant, James Harper was shot down
mortally wounded at his post, sword in hand
leading and cheering on the men. The Ser
geant Maj. N. T. Roberts was wounded in
the shoulder while leading on the left. My
volunteer Aid A. H. Sevier was wounded in
the breast while encouraging our men to stand
by ther colors and had to be taken from the
field. The Lieut. Col. Matlock, and Maj.
Harper evinced great bravery and gallantry in
leading their different wings to the charge,
and I must say that no men displayed greater
coolness than they did upon the field. Capt.
McA'lexander was killed advancing on the
enemy at the head of his Company. At the
same time fell Lieut’s. Dawson, Chambers
and Johnson. Capt. Gibbs and Pearson, Lieuts.

the action, and was cut off from his company.
Too much praise cannot be bestowed upon the
officers of my command, for they were ever
seen in the thickest of the fight cheering on
the men who always gallantly responded to
the call. I lost in the engagameut forty-two
killed, and one hundred and fifty six wounded.

learn that the young ladies residing
in the vicinity of Porter’s Chapel seven miles

here of them, are excellent shots. They have

Salt In Texas.—The Houston Telegraph
calls attention to the supply of salt in the rear
of Corpus Christi, which, it would seem, is
sufficient for the supply of ihe whole Confed
eracy. Thesaltis found in the Laguna Madre,
once a long narrow bay, but which has been
out off from the sea by the formation of a bar.
During nine months of the year there is no
•ain, and the water which flows in from the
iea is rapidly evaporated, leaving a deposit ol
salt from one to two feet deep, of a quality
squal to Turk’s Island. The Telegraph esti
aates that there are not less than a thousand
nillion of bushels of salt in the lagoon withii
each of the rudest appliance for gathering.
Peace Not Far Off.—The New Yot
Herald commenting upon the position of Enf
,and in regard to the blockade, says:
What is the duty of the Goverment and tie
people of the free States under these circum
stances ? It is to put forth every effort to d»
'eat the rebel army in the next great battfe.
If this is done, a victory for the North is cer
;ain, and the experience wahave. gained-at 1
Big Bethel. Bull Run and Davis Creek is not
n vain. The next turn to win is rightfully
surs, and old scores being thus wiped out, and
:he sting of Southern superiority inarms ex
tracted, let arangements immediately be made
!°r the restoration of peace, instead of contin
uing an insane and suicidal strife for the
imusement of England, France, Spain and nil
he naval powers of Europe.
Does the Herald expect that the Vankees
vill be permitted to whip next time, just be
:ause they think it is their turn ?

bt The London Post says that “Admiral I
dilne, the commnder of the Britsh North
Imerican squadron, has officially reported
hat the blockade is totally inefficient.”
The Armies of the Potomac.
The armies of Generals Johnston and Beau
regard have been temporarily combined, and
styled the array of the Potomac. While uni
ted for certain purposes they are still distinct
as ever in their organizations and in the de
tails of command. Gen. Beauregard is at the
head of the first corps and Gen. Johnston of
the second. While the latter is the ranking
officer of seniority of appointment, and could,
according to regulation, assume entire com
mand of the army, yet. with that deference
for the feeling and soldierly reputation of his
illustrious comrade, he has waived this right
and remits to him the full enjoyment of all the
authority and prerogative which he had ante
rior to his own arrrival at Manassa. The
! comand are in all essentials distincft, and no
order of a general character is ever issued by
Gen. Johnston without full and free inter
change of opinion with Gen. Beauregard.
To say that this conduct is not appreciated by
Gen. Johnston without full and free inter
change of opinion with Gen. Beauregard.
To say that this coduct is not appreciated by
Gen. Beauregard would do gross injustice to
the gallant officer, and it give* us pleasure to
! inform our readers that noltiing can exceed
the mutal feeling of affection, respect and
confidence existing between our two distin
guished genera!?. There is no clashing of
authority, no heart-burning. Everything moves
on in the army with the most perfect accord
and good feeling.
