WASHINGTON, Aug. Authorization
has reached Washington, from private
sources, that Gen. Pope came up with and
attacked the enemy again, shortly after
nine o'clock this morning. Gen. Fitz
John Porter had probably arrived on the
field by that time, from Manassas, only
seven miles. The cannonading was dis
tinctly heard in Washington.
The railroad was regularly run this
morning, from the town of WaTenton to
Briston, so it is already clear. The only
damage remaining to be repaired on The
road is TO build the Bull Run and Kappa
hammock bridges. The former should be
completed Tonight, and the latter may
be in in four or five days.
The news received from the army
has Occasioned the greatest excitement
throughout this city.
Orders were issued by heads Of differ
cni Bureaus, calling upon employees tC
repair TO the battlefield for the purpose
of attending TO the condition of oul
wounded. The order required each mar
| TO provide himself with two DAYS ra.
tons A prompt response was made to
the call, and not only persons employed
by Government, but many others left the
CITY for the purpose stated. Although
the engagement with the enemy was of {
most appallingly sanguinarg character
yet such is the confidence Of Union mel
in the skill and strength Of our army
that an abiding faith is everywhere dis.
cernable in our ultimate success.
