An officer of the army just returned
from Manassas, called last evening and
gave US an interesting account of his visit
to Manassas and The battlefield of Bull
Run. A farmer, residing near Centre
vile, told him that in January last a
number of regiments were quartered near
his house, among them Que from Ken
tucky, and when the time of their enlist.
ment expired, they unanimously resolved
tie return home, and accordlugl ly stacked
their arms and were preparing for start,
when their further progress was arrested
by the appearance of an Alabama and a
Tennessee regiment, who were ordered
to reduce the Kentuckians to submission,
and compel them to remain. The Ken
tuckians seized their arms, desperate
fight ensued, in which many were slain
on both sides, and their bodies were
buried whele they fell, the graves being
yet visible. From this spot the mutt
neers retreated short distance, threw
down their arms, and each drawing his
bowie-knite, made desperate charge up-
on the two regiments the fight was ter
rife, in which more than one hundred
were killed, and they too were buried up
on the field cf slaughter. At last the
brave Kentuckians were subdued. The
battlefield was shown to our informant
by the farmer, who witnessed the fearful
contest. In traversing the field be discoV-
cred large bowie knife, which doubtless
had been used in the fearful afray.-

An incident.

When the L. S. vessels were on their
way to attack Fernaudina, they picked up
a contraband who ventured to sea in a
small boat to notify them that the Rebels
were deserting the place. While ques-
tioniag the black, some officers of the AL
ALBANIA remarked that he should have
brought them newspapers, to lie: them
know what was going on. 81 thought or
DAT, replied the contraband land fetched
a Charleston paper wld me" With this
he put a hand in his bosom aud drew
forth "a paper, and, with the air Of uan
who was rendering an Important service,
handed it to the circle of lnqulrers.-
They grasped it eagerly, but one glance
induced a general burst of laughter, to
the profound establishment of poor Cuttee,
who, it seems, could not read, aud, imag-
ining one paper as good as another, had
brought one dated 1S22-FORTY YEARS
OLD! The South Carolina relic was for

BENEFIT OF ADVERTISING The
farmers of Bucks county, Pennsylvania,
understand from long experience, the
benefit Of letting the most people possi-
Bile know when they want to buy or sell.
Even in these "hard times" or rather
unsettled" times, the public sales of
farm stock, &C., nearly equal those of last
year. Last week, there were FIFTY SIX
SALES advertised in the Bucks (ounty

stable, prosperous character of her popu-
lation, as displayed in the advertising

VIM. II. Russell of the London Times

Wm. II. Russell of the London Times
has engaged his passage to England in
the next Cunard steamer. 1t is said that
he considers his election, horses, carriage,
staff and all, from the Alexandria steam
boat on which he barked for Fort Mon
roe an insult, and rumor asserts that the
London Times will make it cdSuS JelH
1t turns out that the order from the War
Department, prohibiting all correspon-
dents from accompanying the army under
the immediate command of Gen McClel-
Ian, was framed merely for the purpose of
excluding Russell, the Government being
unwilling to give facilities for acquiring
knowledge Of the operations of our armies
to man who does not owe allegiance to
the Unired States, aud whose letters, ap-
pearing in journal beyond its control
may give information to the enemy pre-
judicial to the service. Secretary Stan
tons order of prohibition to correspon-
dents has been revoked.
