Daily Nashville patriot. [volume] (Nashville, Tenn.) 1860-1862, 1861-09-17

On Sunday. the 21st day of Jnly. 1861,
this great battle was fought, and great vic
tory won by the Confederate troops. Heaven
smiled on our arms, and the God of battles
crowned our banners with laurels of glory.
Gen. Johnston had arrived the preceding
day with about half of the force he had de-
tailed from Winchester, and was the senior
officer in command. He magnanimously in
sisted, however. that Gen. Beauregard's pre-
vious plan should be carried out, and he was
guided entirely by the Judgment and superior
local knowledge of the latter. While. there
fore, Gen. Johnston was nominally in COM
mand. Beauregard was really the officer and
hero of the. day.
At half-past six in the morning the enemy
opened fire from battery planted on hill
beyond Bull Run, and nearly opposite the
centre of our lines. The battery was intend
ed merely to sbeat the bush, and to occupy
our attention, while he moved heavy col
umn towards the Stone Bridge, over the
same creek, upon our left. At ten O'Clock,
another battery was pushed forward, and
Ope ned fire short distance to the lett OF the
other, and near the road leading North to
Centreyille. This was battery OF riaed
guns, and the object of its fire was the same
as that of the other. They fired promiscu-
ously into the woods and gorges on this, the
Southern, side of Bull Run, seeking to create
the impression thereby that our centre would
be attacked, and thus prevent US from send
ing reinforcements to our left, where the real
attack was to be made. Beauregard was not
deceived by the maneuvre.
/. might not be amiss to say that Bull Run
or creek is North of this place, and runs
nearly due East, curving around the juno
ton, the nearest part of which is about 81
miles The Stone Bridge is some seven miles
distant, in North-westerly direction, upon
which our left wing rested. MitchePs ford is
directly North, and distant four miles, by the

road leading to Centreville, which is seven
miles from the Junction. On our right is
Union Mills, on the same stream, where the
Alexandria and Manassas railroad crosses the
Run, and distant four miles. Proceeding
from Fairfax Court House. by Centreviile, to
Stone Bridge, the enemy passed in front of
our entire line, but at a distance ranging
from five to two miles.
At O'Clock our left under Brigadier Cen
erals Evans, Jackson and Cooke, and Col.
Barlow, with the Georgia Brigade. composed
of the 9TH and 9Th regiments, had been put in
motion. and was advancing upon the enemy
with force of about Is 900, while the enemy
himself was advancing upon our left with a
compact column of at least 10000. These
approaching columns encountered each other
at IL o'clock.
Meanwhile the two batteries in front kept
up their fire upon the wooded hills where they
supposed our centre lay. At a quarter past
II, Johnston and Beauregard gallOped rapid
ly forward in the direction of Stone Bridge,
where the ball had now fully opened.
The artillery were the first to open fire, pre-
cisely at ii O'Clock. By halfpast IL, the in
fantry had engaged and there it was that the
battle began to rage. The dusky columns
which had thus far marked the approach of
the two armies, now mingled with great
clouds of smoke, as it rose from the flashing
guns below. aud the two shot up together
like huge pyramid of red and blue. The
shock was as tremendous as were the odds
between the two forces. With what anxious
hearts was watched that pyramid of smoke
and dust When it moved to the right, we
knew the enemy were giving way; and when
it moved to the left, we knew that our friends
were receding. Twice the pyramids moved
to the right, and as often returned. AT last,
about o'clock, it began to move slowly to
the left, and thus it continued to move for two
mortal hours. The enemy was seeking to
