WASHINGTON, July GA gentleman
of the associated Press furnishes the fol-
Lowing:
The retreat Of our troops to Centre
vile was successfully accomplished by
o'clock last evening, the regiments re.
gaining the positions vacated in the
morning. Those that succeeded in
reaching Centreville had four hours to
stop, the reserve force under Col. Mills
being posted hey ond Centreville. At
o'clock in the morning the retreat from
that point commenced and was main
tatned in good order to Arlington
Heights and Alexandria The army in
its retreat left behind large amount Of
provisions and ammunition, about 40
| army wagons fell into possession OF the
rebels.
AS fast as our troops retreated their
|. positions were occupied by the rebels
till after Fairfax Court House was pass
ed, after which the pursuit was not con-
tinued. In many instances the tcamsters
unhi:chel the horses and abandoned the
wagons when there was not the slightest
necessity. The rebel cavalry was the
terror Of the volunteers, who were com
pelled to keep the woods to avoid being
charged by them.
Among the wounded now in Wash
ington ln6rmary Are Serg. Macklin, of
the lst Minnesota; Jno. Morrison, 2nd
| Ohio; A w. Spass, Second Lieut. 1st
| Michigan; H n Cook, 1st Ohio: James
Chapman, Cd Ohio; Col. Slocum, n. Y.
22d, wounded. not killed.
The IIerald's Dispatch says, the reb-
els out numbered us three to one After
the day had been won by us, fresh rebel
troops were substituted for those who
were defeated. The ammunition of our
artillery lad been expended in the con-
tests. As the caisSons were crushing at
! full speed to lie rear for a new supply
of ammunition, the movement was con-
strued by teamsters and civilians there
into a retreat; panic among them oc.
CURED, they ran for their horses, and
without waiting to ascertain the facts
they cut the traces of the horses aud
commenced a precipitate retreat, The
CONSERVATION thus created, was com
municated to the soldiers in the rear OF
the column at the very m oment when a
charge of fresh Cavalry from Manastes
junction was mado upop them it was
nothing more nor lees than a stampede
The eneny were themselves unaware oil
it. The result il in great nIsssxure at
tributed to tho tardiuess Of General
! Patterson.
Gov. SpraNge's bravery dnring The
whole day challenged universal admirn
Iion, and aided by Mr. CASTOR, Pay
master of ;he 14th n. Y. succeeded in
bringing some degree of order out OF
this chaos. The brave Rhode Islanders
! were formed in the rear to be ready to
! oppose ia" advance Of purSuers.
The number Of killed and wounded
has been greatly exaggerated.
Gen. Mcdowell behs we'd with the
greatest bravery, but this was unavail-
ing to arrest the panic in the rear.
The Fire Zouavez fought like devils.
