Attack upon Trains at Manassas.
Correspondence Of the Philadelphia Inqurer.I
ALEXANDRIA, November 3.-Most of the
accounts relative to the attack upon the train
at Manassas have been exaggerated The fol-
lowing is the true version:-
1t was about three clock on Friday after
noon when the train passed over Bull Run
bridge. 1t proceeded about mile beyond, when
it was thrown from the track No obstruction
was apparent, and the manner in which the
Confederates accomplished the fendish trick
was by cutting off the heads of the spikes
which confined the rails in position. and under
mining the track.
rs the train moved over this spot, the rails
flew cut of position and the whole train, cor
slsting Of twelve cars was thrown from tha
track The engine went down the embank
ment Neither the fireman or engineer We're
killed The latter however was made prison2c
whilst the former escaped.
There were forty soldiers and sixty laborecs
aboard the train at the time. These were all
captured by q compsny Of Prince William
county cavalry that emerged from ambush i'm
mediately after the train was thrown from ,he
track.
Early next morning wrecking train started
out, and, through the exertions of the work
men, the locomotive was holsted from the base
Of the embankment. It was damaged to the
extent Of $1,000 The cars were hurt in no
way. The whole train together with the loco
motive, was brought down to Alexandria t
is thought that no ore aboard was killed,
though murderous fire was poured upon the
train from the carhines Of the cayarymen

Letters from Nassau, Bahamas, written on
10Th of October, state that the Sergeant Major
of the I'd (Rritish) West India Regiment had
deserted to the Confederate army in the South
from the guard-room in which he was confined
after his arrest for former attempt to join
the Davis forces. Yellow fever had subsidized
after taking off by death the Protestant Bish
op, his three nieces, their governess, the Re
ceiver General of the isand and many other
victims. The trade of Nassau with the Con-
federate ports was decreasing.
The United States steam transport United
States, which arrived o. Saturday night, from
Port Royal on the Goth ult., brings the report
that Just before she sailed a rumor was preva-
lent hat the Sa, annah ram was coming down
the river.
The commission of General Rosecrans as
Major General has been dated back to the Dist
Of March, 1862, the time when he ceased to
command the Department Of Western Nir-
ginia. This has been done partly to enable him
to outrank the Major Generals who will have
to serve ulder him in his new department.
The Confederate steamer Alabama has SO
far captured p vessels-of these l9 were des-
troyed.
The Washington correspondent Of the New
York Times declares that it is unquestionable
that great appresionsions exist in regard to ne
gro risings in Lower Maryland; and in his let
| ter of the I'd instant adds: The black popula-
ton is there large; and the Confederate army
has been recruited from the whites to an ex-
tent most surprising. The citizens left are be-
ing drafted into the National service and the
| result is that almost the only men left there
! will be negroes.
