Washington, .S,pf. 30-An officer who wit.
messed tho disaster If Sunday morning, attend
ing tho advance Of our troops towards Falls
Church, states that Bars Battery Of Camp
lrlls Pennsylvania Artillery was Immediately
in the rear Of Mott's Battery when the first fir
ing commenced. The balls coming FROM tho
declvity Of . hill, and dcnAe woods being on
each side Of the road, they failed of their pur-
poSes, and, asa consequence, these batteries es-
capped injury. About half an hour Afterwards,
another panic happening, Bars batteries were
ordered TO lire on their rear. They bad already
loaded their artillery, but, being aware their
fricrds wcrc in that position. they refused TO
FIRE. Had they thurhtlcssly ohcycd tho
order, the havoc certainly would have becn
frightfu. There is still a mystery concerning
the FIR. firing or tho advancing column, many
believing it came from body OF rebel cavalry.
