IGNORING PARrY.-The Hal tford ICON.
necticuD Times, referring to the contempt.
ible course Of the Republican papers in
relation to removals Of Democrats from
office, says, " VIC do not object to the
appointment of Republicans to Office in
the place Of Democrats. Our opponents
have the power, and if they chose to take
the Offices, very well. But let them havO
the courage to do it openly and avow their
purposes to do it. Let us hear no more
of the hypocritical cant Of mo party, or
that there is now only ono party! Let
them be honest enough to avow tho prin.
cip!e on which they really act, that to
the victors belong tho soils! Let them
do this and go on with their removals and
they will hear no sniveling from Democrats,
All honest men desrise their insincerity."

Capt. Deliver, of this city, who was
near the contcnding hosts from an early
hour on the morning Of the late battle un-
til its close, says that Il person uaacquaint-
ed with military movements could only
make out vast columns of smoke, and hear
incessant peals of heavy artillery, and tue
whistling of bullets. During several hours
Of tue fight he WAS in company with DR..
Russell, who was mounted on fine horse,
and who explained to him some Of the
movements as they progressed.
Russell rode up To the TANKS of the vari-
GUS divisions engaged, and. saw the dis
lance they were apart, and the effect of
the firing, which was decidedly in favor of
the Union troobs. Dr. Russell seems to
have anticipated some disaster uIhe reur,
from Il casual remark to the effect that the
battle WAS won, "ii no mishap Overtakes
the rear of the federal forces" Asex-
planned to Capt. Deliver some of the
movements, he lent him bis glass TO see
for himself. He said our troops held their
own like veterans when opposed by supe-
rior numbers, but they lacked steadiness
in falling back.
DR.. Russell saw the rebel cavalry MS
they emerged from the woods, and remark
ed to Captain Deliver that they numbered
about thousand, and Captain Deliver
himself SAYS that lie thinks that Dr. Rus
sell was about right in his estimate. \
very small force OF even infantry properly
posted, could have driven them Off the
held; but that force was not at hand.
They charged among the teamsters, and
created a panic, which was more destruc-
tive than their swords.
Captaia Deliver remarked to DR.. Russell
that he thought the troops from the front
rs they came up, would stop the retreat
at certain point; bnt the Doctor said,
No, they are all more or less infected; il
is painful-yery Painfuli SO We must look
out and make good our own retreat"
Captain Dolliyer aud Dr. Russell retreat
ed in company until all danger from the
victorious rebels was past
Captain DOlliver says that the men suf-
fered much from want Of water, and that
they had been inspired with the hope OF
General Butler bearing down upon one
flank and General Patterson upon the oth-
er, while they drove in the centre. They
fought confident that victory was within
their grasp, aud knew not the disaster in
the rear uniil too late to retrieve it.
