A yis;, TO the Ha,.le Field.
TERRIBLE SuFFrRnGs or OUR WouNl

TERRIBLE SUFFgRINGs or OUR MOUND
Sunday morning Gag Of truce was sent
in for permission to bring off The dead and
wounded Of our army, who had not been
reached during the days Of the fighting,
which was granted, to last from Loon till
sunset Some sixty ambulauces were sent,
with a number Of physicians and some citiz-
ems, and on their arrival at the field il terri
bic scene pre- sented itself. The wounded.
with few exceptions. had received no atten-
ton, our doctors all leaving in company with
| the troops, and the enemy having enough
to do 10 attend 10 their own. Tie physi-
clans Immediately commenced their opera
| tons, but their means and help were very
inadequate. About one half Of the wound
| ed were brought in, their wounds partially
dressed, some amputations performed, and
the ambulaEces filed and brought away, the
number being about two hundred. About
100 TO 200 still remained ON the field, and
now that our army has retreated back, no
chance remains Of sending them succor. A
terrible responsibility rests on those having
charge OF this matter, that the object of the
flag OF truce was not more successful. Some
were seen whose limbs were commencing to
mortiiy for want OF dressing, and who were
faint and almost famished from hunger and
thirst.
Those who visited the field Of battle were
not allowed TO proceed beyond, where the
heaviest part OF the fighting took place, and
no troops or guns could be seen, except a
number Of cavalry who were scattered all
ovrr the hills, and who were all willing TO
converse freely with our soldiers and ciiz-
ems who accompanied the ambulance train.
They unanimously say they viii soon drive
US from Virginia, and even into the free
states, and will endeavor to let US feel the
war by making portion of our land resem-
BILE that part OF Virginia over Which the ar
mics have passed and repassed within the
last six months. On returning to Center
vile ii was found that fight had taken
place somewhere in our rear, and every.
thing was hustle and excitement, the troops
getting under way for The scene, trains NOV
ing OF, &c, while many had already gone.
1t seemse that during the forenoon report
reached headquarters that movement was
on loot to attack our trains, and Kings divi-
SION was ordered to proceed to Fairfax and
take position to The west of that TOWN. 10
prevent any demonstration of the enemy.
About noon the rebels were discovered ap-
preaching from that direction, when skir
mlshing commenced, and our troops formed
IN line Of battle, word being sent 10 head
quarters, and additional forces sent TO the
spot The rebels attacked with alarge body
OF infantry, but were repulsed.

enlist in the service of their country, and
then, without seeming in the least abashed
in the presence of the large assemblage,
kissed him, and laid his hand on the roll for

Great Battle i'm Virginia. Terrible
Slaughter.

A terrible battle was fought in Virginia,
partly on the old Bull Run field, on Friday
of last week. 1t is claimed as a federal
victory, but up to Tuesday morning of this
week, we are unable TO peeceive any deci-
sive results. We give below such particu-
lars as have come TO hand -
OFFICIAL DISPATCH BY GEN. TORE.
Headquarters, Field of Battle, Groveton,
near GAINESVILLE, Aug. so, 1862. To Mai
Gen. Halleek, general-n-chief, Washing
ton We fought a terrible battle here
yesterday, with the combined forces Of The
eremy, which lasted with continuous fury
from daylight till after dark, by which time
the enemy was driven from the field which
we now occupy. The troops were too much
exhausted 10 push matters, but shall do so
in the course OF the morning, as soon as
Fitz John Porter's corps comes up to Man
assas. The enemy is still in our front, but
badly used up. We have lost not less than
5000 men killed and wounded, and from the
appearance of the field the enemy have lost
at least two to our one. He stood strictly
on the defensive, and every assault was
made by ourselves. Oar troops have be-
haved splendidly. The battle was fought
on the identical battlefield Of Bun Run.
which greatly increased the eI thusiasm of
our men. The enemy is reireating towards
the mountains. 90 forward at once. We
have made great captures. but / am not
able yet 10 form any idea Of their extent.

AMONG THE PINEs.-This most inter-
esting and attractive work is the book Of
the season. 1t is an authentic record of
events which have transpired since the
dawn Of the rebellion. The dramatic style
in which it is written, with its vivid por-
traiture, its perfect truihfulness, presents
= story more absorbing than any work of
fiction lately published. The author has
a powerful, mastery way of bringing to
the light the evils of the peculiar insiiiu-
ton. This book viii be fully appreciated,
coming as it docs when the public mind at
the North is so powerfully wrought upon
by the gigantic rebellion of the stakeholder.
II is an invaluable work 10 every loyal man.
Let everybody read it. Published by J.

1t is worse than criminal to stand at this
hour debating how the war should be con-
ducted-wbat policy should be pursued, or
who it is we are to blame for this, that or
the other, while neglecting our main duty
Of sending succor. The only policy now
is the fighting policy, and he who is not in
favor OF it is the man to be blamed. Our
generals and our armies are on the bloody
field of battlefield Almighty bless and
preserve them. We have no time to change
men or ofiicers--the issue is upon the fall
of the die now in The air; we must soon
emerge from the darkness which overshad
ows US or sink into irretrievable gloom

HABEAs CoRrus.-An important habe-
as corpus case has arisen in Burlington.
The persons arrested in Jericho, for lisloyal
practices. mentioned last week, have been
brought before Judge Smalley on a writ OF
habeas corpus, notwithstanding the Presi-
dent suspended this writ some weeks since.
On Monday, Marshal Baldwin appeared be-
fore the court, without the prisoners. 1t
appeared that he bad reported the facts to
Washington, and had received the follow
ing reply:
WASHINGTON, Aug. so b, 1862.
70 o. c. p. Baideia, L. s. Marshal:
Pay no attention to the habeas corpus
for the liberation of Lyman. Barney and
Field, and if any attempt be made TO lib
crate them from custody, resist ii to the NJ
most, and report the names Of all who may
attempt.
BY order of the Secretary of War,
L. c. TURNER,
Judge Advocate.
Hon. levi Underwood appeared for the
U. S. in behalf Of the Marshal, and replied
further that the prisoners were arrested
under the late order of the Secretary of
War, suspending the writ of habeas corpus
Hon. G. f. Edmunds and w. G. Shaw,
Esq, appeared for the prisoners and claim
ed that tie return was insufficient, and the
refusal to produce Mr.. Field Zone of the
prisoners,) was contempt OF court. Judge
Smaley decided that the return was not a
compliance with the writ, and that unless the
Marshal produced the prisoner within four
hours, he should issue further order requir-
ing The U. 5. Marshal and Sheriff Flana-
gan 10 show cause at the next October term
of the Circuit Court, why an attachment
should not issue against them for contempt
of court. We gather these particulars from
the Burlington Free Press. 1t was UNDER
stood when that paper went to press thai
the Marshal would not produce the prison
ers, but wocld obey his orders from Wash
ing'on. What this all means we cannot say,
but the idea of using the writ of habeas
corpus to protect openly avowed traitors, is
a discouraging phase in the pres
emit crisis aud how il is that the orders
rom Washington are thus set at defiance,
remains to be seen.

Gushing received his appointment as minisi-
or to China, Fletcher Webster accompanied
him as secretary Of legation. Under the
administration of Pierce and Buchanan he
held position in the Boston custom honse.
In 1861, when the call was made for troops,
he was among the first to recruit iesi-
ment for The war. His brother was killed
IN Mexico, and Mrs. Appleton, his sister,
diedra few years ago. so that none Of the
children of Daniel Webster are now alive.

The Election.

The state election last Tuesday resulted
in an overwhelming Union victory. Gov.
Holbrook's majority will be from rs, 900 to
10000, according to the whole number of
votes cast. The vote is very light in almost
every instance, owing TO the little interest
felt in mere political affairs, and also to the
fact that there are at least 10000 voters in
the army. The election ,mphatically sig
nifies the great manimity with which the
people of Vermont. without regard to polit-
zeal parties, sustain the government and
administration, in putting down the rebel
lion.
Our returns are comparatively few out
of Windham and Windsor counties, but we
have not yet heard of the election of a single
secesh 10 the legislature. 1t is worthy of
note that the good old democratic town of
Barnard gives handsome majority for the
Union state ticket, and elects a Union dem
ocrat TO the House. Honor TO her noble
position. Honor to all communities, who,
IN the present crisis, set aside party shackles,
and act as patriots and statesmen.
Among those elected to the legislature
are some of the best and ablest men of our
state, though we have only seen the names
Of about seyenty-fve members. In the
Senate, we notice the names of Messrs.
Stoughton and Kirkland, of this county,
Edmunds, of Chittenden, J. w. Stewart, of
Middletery, Allen, of Rutland, and Stafford,
of Windsor. In the House are many strong
and able men, among whom are Henry, of
Chester, ex-Gov. Fletcher, of Cavendish
Balch, Of Ludlow, Chandler, Of Woodstock,
Shaw, Of Burlington, nton, Of Bethel, j.
g. Smith, of st. Adams, Flagg, of Will
mington, Reed, of Montpelier, Gen. Cush-
man, Of Rochester, Barrett, of Grafton,
Nichols, of Rutland, and others.
