On reaching the ford at Sudley's Spring, I found
'that a part of the leading brigade of Hunter's Divi-
.sion (Burnside's) had crossed; but the men were
'slow in getting over, stopping to drink. As at this
time the clouds of dust from the direction of Man-
assas indicated the immediate approach of a large
force, and fearing it might come down on the head
of the column before the division could all get over
and sustain it, orders were sent back to the heads
regiments to break from the column and come
forward separately as fast as possible. Orders were
sent by an officer to the reserve brigade of Heintzel-
tnan's Division to come up by a nearer road across
the fields, and an aide-de-camp was sent to Brigade-
General Tyler to direct him to press forward his
attack, as large bodies of the enemy were passing
in front of him to attack the division which had
crossed over,

By referring to the General Order, it will be seen
that, while the operations were to go on in front,
an attack was to be made at Blackburn's Ford by
the brigade (Richardson's) stationed there. A re-
ference to this report and to that of Major Hunt,
commanding the artillery, will show that this part
of the plan was well and effectively carried out. It
succeeded in deceiving the enemy for a consider-
able time, and in keeping in check a part of his
force. The fire of the artillery at this point is re-
presented as particularly destructive.
At the time of our retreat, seeing great activity
in this direction, much firing, and columns of dust,
I became anxious for this place, fearing if it were
turned or forced the whole stream of our retreating
mass would be captured or destroyed. After pro-
viding for the protection of the retreat by Porter's
and Blenker's Brigades, I repaired to Richardson's,
and found the whole force ordered to be stationed
for the holding of the road from Manassas by Black-
burn's Ford to Centreville, on the march, under the
orders of the division commanded, for Centreville.
I immediately halted it, and ordered it to take up
the best line of defence across the ridge that their
position admitted of, and subsequently, taking in
person the command of this part of the army, I
caused such a disposition of the forces, which had
been added to by the Ist and 2d New Jersey and
the 1)e Kalb Regiments, ordered up from Runyon's
reserve before going forward, as would best serve
to check the enemy. The ridge being held in this
wav, the retreating current passed slowly through
Centreville to the rear.
The enemy followed us from the ford as far as
Cob Run, and, owing to the road becoming blocked
up at the crossing, caused us much damage there,
for the artillery could not pass, and several pieces
and caissons had to be abandoned. In the panic
the horses hauling the caissons and ammunition
were cut from their places by persons to escape with,
and in this way much confusion was caused, the
panic aggravated, and the road encumbered. Not
only were pieces of artillery lost, but also many of
the ambulances carrying the wounded.
By sundown most of our men had gotten behind
Centreville-ridge, and it became a question whe-
ther we should or not endeavour to make a
stand there. The condition of our artillery and
its ammunition, and the want of food for the
men, who had generally abandoned or thrown away
all that had been issued the day before, and the
utter disorganization and consequent demoraliza-
tion of the mass of the army, seemed to all who
were near enough to be consulted—division and bri-
gade commanders and staff—to admit of no alterna-
tive but to fall back ; the more so as the position at
Blackburn's Ford was then in the possession of the
enemy, and he was already turning our left. 0n
sending the officers of the Staff to the different
camps they found, as they reported to me, that our

As my position may warrant, even if it does not
call for, some explanation of the causes, as far as
they can be seen, which led to the results herein
stated, I trust it may not be out of place if I refer
in a few words to the immediate antecedents of the
battle.
When I submitted to the General-in-Chief, in
compliance with his verbal instructions, the plan
of operations and estimate of force required, the
f
time I was to proceed to carry it into effect was
fixed for the Bth of July (Monday). Every

in making the necessary preparations. But the
regiments, owing, I was told, to want of tran-
sport, came over slowly, Many of them did
not come across till eight or nine days after
the time fixed upon, and went forward with-
out my even seeing them, and without having been
together before in a brigade. The sending rein-
forcements to General Patterson, by drawing off
the waggons, was a further and unavoidable cause
of delay. Notwithstanding the herculean efforts of
the Quartermaster-General, and his favouring me
in every way, the waggons for ammunition, sub-
sistence, &c., and the horses fOr the trains and the
artillery, did not all arrive for more than a week
after the thne appointed to glove. I was not even
prepared as
.late as the 15th ult., and the desire I
should move became great, and it was wished I
should not, if possible, delay longer than Tuesday,
the 16th ult.
When I did set out, on the 16th, I was still de-
ficient in waggons for subsistence. But I went
forward, trusting to their being procured in time
to follow me. The trains thus hurriedly gathered
together, with horses, waggons, drivers, and wag-
gon managers, all new and unused to each other,
moved with difficulty, and disorder, and were the
cause of a day's delay in getting the provisions for-

This was an action to recover £77 ss. 10d, for
board and lodging, and money lent. 10s. was paid
into court, and the defendant pleaded that he was
not further indebted.
Mr. Millward appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr.
Pope for the defendant=
It appeared from the opening of the learned
counsel for the plaintiff' and the evidence called on
her behalf, that the defendant was formerly
head master of the Hindley Grammar School,
and chaplain of the Uindley Workhouse, his in-
come from both situations being about £6O a year.
Having lost these appointments, he subsequently
became curate of West Haughton Chtirch, at £4O
a-year. From having lost part of his income he
became embarrassed is his circumstances. At his
own request he went to reside with the plaintiff, a
lady with some fortune. He was to pay 10e. a
week for his rooms, 10s. a week for his board, and
herls washing, but he had not paid
6anyathwineegkfoforrthelastl2 months that he resided
with her. Among the items for money lent. was
one of 103., in order to enable the plaintiff to go to
Manchester; another of 65., to enable him to go to
Bolton ; a third of pi. 6d., for the purchase of a
pair of shoes ; and a fourth of 9d. per week for
tobacco, the defendant being a great smoker ; and
another of is. 2d. a day for beer. Previous to
leaving the residence of the plaintiff the defendant
took with him a clock, worth 305., and borrowed a
carpet-bag, worth 103. Some laughter was caused
by the reading over of the items, and by the plain-
tiff stating that the defendant frequently did not
rise until between 2 and 3 o'clock in the afternoon.
He was accustomed to sit up very late smoking his
pipe and drinking beer. She denied that the de-
fendant settled with her on the day before he left
her house, or that she was indebted to him.
For the defence, Mr. Pope said the agreement
was that the defendant should pay the plaintiff
12s. a week for his board and lodging, and that he
should also give lessons to the plaintiff's son. Be-
fore leaving he had a settlement with the plaintiff,
and paid her every farthing she demanded. As to
the clock, it was presented to the defendant by
Mrs. Sharpies ;. and as to the 10s. paid into court,
it was on account of the carpet-bag which he bor-
rowed prior to leaving her house. The learned
counsel read a letter written by the plaintiff some
months after the defendant left her house, from
which it appeared that, so far from asking him to
pay her the £7O odd alleged to be owing to her, she
requested him to lend her £lO, observing, "You
will have to help me this quarter, and I will help
you next." The learned counsel added, that ho
would put his client, who at present held a re•
sponsible position as a clergyman in Leeds, into
the witness-box, and he would tell the jury that he
was not indebted to the plaintiff at all. The par
ties were not on such intimate terms now as they
were then, and it would be for the jury, when they
had heard the evidence for the defence, to say on
which side the truth lay,
end to form their own
opinion respecting the reasons which induced the
plaintiff to bring the present action.
The case was commenced yesterday before his
lordship and adjourned. On its being resumed
this morning an arrangement was coma to, the
defendant submitting to a Verdict for £25 against
him on terms.

The complainant was in one of the company's
omnibuses when the prisoner entered and took a
seat beside her. From what came to the know-
ledge of the conductor, he was induced to watch the
prisoner. In the City-road the latter stopped the
omnibus, and in a hasty manner got out and pro-
ceeded up Hall-street. The conductor, having as-
certained that the complainant's pocket had been
picked and that her purse had been stolen, went
after the prisoner, brought her back, put her in the
omnibus, and drove her to the Angel at Islington,
and there gave her into the custody of Police-con-
stable Clancey, 398 N. Before the prisoner was
brought back the omnibus was searched. but the
purse could not be found. When the prisoner was
apprehended the purse was found close to her feet.
To get at the complainant's pocket the thief had to
cut through two petticoats, as well as to lift the
