ATTACK ON GEN. PRICE.
of the Town by the Rebels.
THE ENEMY IN FULL RETREAT.
Large Quantities Of Arms, Tents, &C., Cap
tured.

IUKA, Miss, Sept. 20.
To Major III. w. Halleck, General-in- Chief:
Gen. Rosecranzs, with Stanley's and None
tons divisions aud Miseroe's cavalry, attacked
Price south of this village about two hours be-
fore dark yesterday, and had sharp fight
until night closed in. Gen. Ord was to the
north with an armed force of about 5000 men,
and had some skirmishing with the rebel pick
cts. This morning the fight was renewned by
Gen. Rosecranz, who was nearest to the town,
but it was found that the enemy had been evac-
uating during the night, going south. Genls
Hamilton and Stanley with cavalry are in full
pursuit. This will no doubt break up the
enemy and possibly force them to abandon
much of their artillery. The loss on either
side in killed and wounded is from 400 to 800.
The enemy's loss in arms, tents. &c, will be
large. We have about go prisoners. have
reliable Intelligence that it was Prices inten-
tion to move on east of the Tennessee In
this he has been thwarted. Among the enc
my's losses are Gen. Little killed and Gen.
Whitford wounded. l cannot speak too high
ly Of the energy and skill displayed by Gen.
Rosecranzs in the attack and of the endurance
of the troops. Gen. Ord's command showed
untiring zeal, but the direction taken by the
enemy prevented them from taking the active
part they desired. Prices forces was about

Our Troops Cross the Potomac
Capture Of Six Pieces of Artillery.
X l. LED AND WOUN NDED.

New YORK, Sept 90
The remains Of Gen. Mansfield were for
warded to Middleton, Conn, last night.
The Herald's Washington dispatch says
Quartermaster Alonzo Coy, of the 1lth Mass.
regiment, committed suicide on Saturday by
shooting himself with pistol, while laboring
under depression of spirits, caused by do
mestic afiliction. He was acting brigade
Quartermaster of the 1st brigade, Growers
division, and much esteemed officer.
The Herald's Frederic dispatch of the 2Oth
says, the dawning light of this morning dis
covered the artillery of the enemy still in posi-
tion upon the opposite side OF the Potomac
On this side our guns were fronting them men
acingly. The first crossing was effected by
force of cavalry, but our batteries were not in
position to attack them and they were forced
to withdraw. The infantry, however succeed
ed better, and after fordng the river they threw
out pickets or rather skirmishers for a mile
without meeting with opposition. BY this
movement six guns of the rebels were captur-
ed, which were taken across and are now
placed in position to harass their late owners.
The rebels at first replied with considerable
vigor to our artillery, but as they merely de-
signed to cover their retreat, they were more
anxious to prevent the crossing of the river
than to annoy or silence our batteries.
The prize steamer Columbia, from Key West
where she was condemned, arrived here to-day
She was captured on the Sd of August by the
gunboat Santiago de Cuba. She has a large
quantity of munitions of war on board.
The following additional casualties in the
late battle are from the Herald report Lieut..
Col. Fillebrown, 10th Me-, in breast Also,the
following Gencrals-Gen. Mansfield, killed;
Brig. Gen. Crawford. wounded in thigh, Sc
yerely; Gen. Hartsufi, wounded.

SERMON TO THE SOLDIERs.-State street
Church was given up yesterday afternoon to
the soldiers in Camp Lincoln, to listen to a
discourse from Rev. George L. Walker, pastor
of the church. About 1000 of the soldiers,
under command of Post Adjutant Morris, and
accompanied by the Portland Band, marched
over from the camp. After they were seated
in the church, the edifce was crowded to
overfowing by the crowd outside. The SER
vices were very appropriate to the occasion.
The hymn, Come thou Almighty King" was
sung by the choir. Then followed sundry Sc
lections from the Psalms, and fervent prayer
for the soldiers, their families, and for our
country by the pastor of the church. Another
hymn was sung. Rev. Mr. Walker then de-
liyered an impressive discourse, taking his
text from the 23d chapter of Deuteronomy,
14th verse, which was listened to with the
strictest attention by the vast congregation.
We have copious notes OF this discourse, but
the press of telegraphic matter obliges us to
omit them-besides, they would by no means do
justice to the preacher. His closing remarks
were an eloquent and forcible appeal to the
soldiers to do their whole dnty to themselves
and their country. We wish this discourse
could be placed in the hands of every soldier,
not only in our own camp, but throughout the
Union.
After the discourse, the whole audience
Joined nsinging" America, "led by the Portland
Band. The benediction then closed these in
teresting services.

MILITARY ELECrIoN.-Saturday afternoon
Company A, 18th regiment, held an election
to supply the vacancy made by the promotion
Of Capt. Shaw to the Lieut. Colonelcy of the
regiment Lieutenant Frank L. Jones was
elected Captain; Second Lieut.. George H.
Abbott was elected First Lieutenant; Orderly
Sergeant Charles B. Hall was elected Second
Lieutenant These officers were elected by a
unanimous vote.
We congratulate the company on getting
such an efficient officer as Capt. Jones. He is
the right man in the right place. While on
the Pacific he held military commission for
four years, and he understands thoroughly the
duties Of soldier. Capt Jones was local
editor of this paper from its commencement
until he felt himself called upon to do what he
could in behalf of his suffering country, a
situation which he filed with credit to himself
and to the satisfaction of the proprietors.-
May good fortune attend him in his military

AccIDENr.-Mr. Samuel Chadwick and the
porter of his shop were riding down Congress
street Saturday morning. When near Green
street, a dog sprung at the horse, causing him
to jump and bring the wagon against a tree.
The occupants were thrown out, and the
wheels Of the wagon struck the right leg of
Mr.. Chadwick, breaking the large bone of the
leg little below the knee. The porter cs-
capped with some slight bruises. Mr.. Chad
wick was conveyed to his residence, and at
tended by his brother, DIR. G. II. Chadwick
and DIR. Tewksbury. The horse ran part way
down Green street, when the reins became
entagled with the wagon and stopped the
fight of the steed. We are informed that this
is not the first case where horse has been
frightened by this same dog. 1t is high time
that he should be taken care Of

One of the reporters of the Associated
Press, who visited the rebel hospitals on the
battlefield, says he there saw large quantities
of medicines which had been captured from
our army in previous conflicts, the labels des
ignatng the original ownership. The wound
ed of both sides were on the best possible
friendly terms, and freely discussed the merits
of former aswell as the lasi battles.
Visiting the field where the dead of both side,i
lay, he noticed that while the pockets of ou
men were turned ont. having been empted
their contents, those of the rebels were gener
