 MANASSAS JUNCTION, July 23.-I am at length enabled to send you more accurate and satisfactory accounts of the great battle at Stone Bridge than have hitherto been obtain able.
 The number Of the killed and wounded, however, owing to the extent of ground over which the battle was fought, is still uncertain. It is thought to be something less than 9 ,0O0 on our side, and at least 5000 on the side of the enemy.
 Col. Corcoran, of the New York 69th Regi- ment (acting as Brgadier General, has been taken prisoner by us.
 Also "Gen," Edward c. Darlington, a Vir- gnia renegade, who accepted the post of U- S. Attorney for the District of Columbia un- der Lincoln, and who has made himself very conspicuous, since his appointment, in organ izing the Abolition oficeholders in Washing ton into companies to fight the South Car. I ton The Virginians are rejoiced that the traitor has been taken.
 The Fifth South Carolina regiment with the Seventeenth and Eighteenth Mississippi Regiments, under Gen. Jones, charged the bat tery, at McClellan's Ford, at o'clock in the afternoon and took too guns.
 Capt. Harrington, of Company c, captured Hon. MT. Ely, member of the Bump Con- gress from the Rochester district, New York. He was acting as an amateur fighter.
 Col. Kemper of the Alexandria Artillery when ordered to open on the enemy in sup port of Kershaw's Regiment, called out to the Butler Guards, "Butlers, will you follow me?" They answered, immediately, "We will, to man'
 They captured eight pieces (Sherman's BatterV.) Col. Kershaw took United States surgeon prisoner.
 Col. Wilcox, of the Michigan regiment with one captain and three privates of the same regiment, are prisoners in our hands, In all, over 30 U. s. Officers have been made prisoners. The prisoners concur in alleging that the impression was general among the United States troops that we would not fight
 Thirty wagons, loaded with large number (about 600) prisoners, were brought to Rich mond tonight Eight hundred more, it is said, will come tomorrow. Among them an abolition member of Congress.
 After Lieutenant Col. Johnson was killed and Col Wade Hampton was wounded, Gen. Beauregard rode up in person, and led the Le- zion into battle. Each of the companies be- haved admirably. The Legion lost in killed and wounded 113.
 Gen. Bonham is again at Fairfax Court House, 14 miles from Alexandria. When the fate of the battle balanced in the scale, late in the afternoon, and some of Gen. Johnston's regiment showed signs of ofwavering, he seized the colors himself and led the ad- vance, thus turning the tide of battle in our | favor. Elser's brigade coming up about this time, was mainly instrumental in changing the fortune of the day. Col Thomas, of Gen. Johnston's staff, was killed, Col. Mason, of the same staff was wounded Gen. E. K. Smith was also wound, ed.
 Neither Capt, Conner, of the Washington Light Infantry, nor Adjutant Barker, are wounded
 Gen. N. c. Evans, who in person, led the first brigade into action, is unhurt.
 Among the killed of the Ogethorpe Light Infantry, of Savannah, are Bryan Murrel, Ju- lius c. Ferrill and W. H. Crane. Col. Ga d. ner, of Augusta, Ga, is slightly wounded.
 RICHMOND, July 23.-In the battle at Stone Bridge, Gems. Beauregard and Johnston con- manded together, their rank being equal.
 We have taken in all 59 guns, with caissons, horses, gear, etc., complete, 800 wagons with stores, provisions, etc., large amount of ann intuition and small arms in great quantities. The woods and fields for miles northeast of Manassas Junction, were strewn with arms, Anapsacks, and accoutrements left by the ene- my in their flight.
 Trumbull and other members of Lincoln's Congress, were on the field with Me DOwell, fully provided with luxuries of every kind, with which to have celebratrd their triumph, but they did not carry these delicacies back to Alexandria.
 The number of killed on our side is fixed at about GAO. Our wounded exceeds 1000.
 The ammunition and provisions captured are, it is said, enough to last an army for six months.
 Gen, Scott is reported to have been at Fair fax Court House during the opening of the en- gagement.
