II is vaguely reported that Gen. Patterson's g
division arrived in the vicinity OF Manassas
this afternoon, and commenced an attack on
the rebel forces. He was within 25 miles of
the battle ground yesterday; but the exhausted
condition of his men prevented him from COM
ing to Gen. McDowell's aid.
II is also reported that $1,000 of our troops
have been sent to Fairfax from the other side
of the river.
Lieut.. Col. Fowler, Of the New York 18th,
wounded; Col Lawrence, of the Mass. 5tb,
and Capt. Ellis, OF the lst New York, badly
wounded; Col. Farnbam and Major Lozier, Of
the New York Zluaves, are wounded.
1t Is probable that the number Of killed and
wounded is magnifed by large number who
are missing. The lowest estimate of killed
and wounded may be placed at from a 900 tc
5000.
1t is known that on the day previous to the
battle, large number OF the Ohio Regiment
publicly protested against being led by Gen
ties of Col. McCook (in whom they placed al
confdeDce), and other officers, that they wer,
prevented from making most formidable re
bellion.
II was well known to our troops yesterday
that johnson had formed juucture with Beau
regard on the night Of the first action at Bull
RIM. Our men could distinctly hear the car
coming in from Manassas Junction and tn
cheers with which the Confederates hailed thei
newly arrived comrades They knew that th
enemy was superior in numbers, and in thei
own position. This was further confirmed
prisoners taken; but these facts we're probabl
unknown at Washington.
General Schenck, as we'll as older field officers
acted admirably. lie collected his forces an
covered the retreat, and up to the last momer
was personally engaged in the endeavor to rail-
his men to make stand at Centerville, 1t wa
the arrivaio of fresh reinforcements to the enem
in superior numbers, which turned the scale G
battle. .. f....
The enemy before now might perhaps hav
more to boast of If they had followed up thei
advantage last night.
