The following impartial statement of the he
roic conduct Of the Cd Wisconsin regiment in
the battle at BULBS Run viii be as gratifying to
the friends of the volunteers. and the State 70
which they have done such honors, as it is just to
the heroes. If anything more were necessary
to show the truthfullness of this testimony than
the remoteness of location from which it pro-
ceeds, (Which removes it from liability to par
tiality,) it is enough to say that the statement
is fully confirmed from various sources We

THE FIGHT AT BULL RUN.-Owing to a
variety Of causes, some of the regiments en-
gagged in the battle of the 21st of July have
failed to receive so favorable notice as thev
deserve.
Among such might be mentioned the sscsnd
regiment Of Wisconsin. This regiment was in
the advance of Col. Shsrman's brigade dnring
the engagement Of the 18th, and is highly com.
phmented by that officer for their coolness in
their first exposure to the enemy's batteries
In the battle of Sunday, the 2Ist, they were at
tached to the same brigade, with the thir-
seenth, sixty-ninth, and the seventy-ninth Of
New York.
Up to ten o'clock, A. NJ, this regiment serv-
ed as supporters of Gen. sherman's battery.
when they had orders to cross the stream.
leaving the battery behind them. Marching mn
the steep hill in the double quick, they we're
soon formed at the top in battle order. In a
ie" moments the order came to CHARGE nnon
shS reoeis batteries, which were directly in
'front.' across the valley Here the ..B.dnor
boys" made gallant charge down the d.;
ty aud up the opposite side, pouring voIl.-s -
musket shot into the enemy's ranks. In tb;s
engagement, where they were exposed an bo,,r
and hslf to the double fires of the epemv,s
artillery and infantry, they lost some thirty
Allled and sixty wounded. The Fire Zouaves
sl0 occupied position during the engagement

80 gwen to retreat, and the regiment had
fe'foss'd B0ll Run, the cavalry made sn -
temps to capture the reeinent,l c.Io., -.

METEoRIc-For the benefit of those of our
readers who were not up at that time, we no
tice an unusual phenomenon fer the season on
Monday night last. The light between one and
two in the morning indicated a fire in the Vi
entity, but examination showed brilliant au-
rora 5orealis, which we do not recollect having
seen before during the heated season. The
probability is that the extraordinary derange-
ment in electricity caused by the heat, resulted
in this method Of seeking an equilibrium, in
stead Of the more common method of thunder
