WARRINGTON, August 30.-To-day's evening
Star, speaking of Fridays battle, says it was
continued by the corpses of Heinzelman, Nc
Dowell and Sigel, against rebels numbering near
sixty thousand, consisting of Jackson's and a
portion of Lees army, which succeeded in get.
ting from White Plains through Thoroughfare
Gap.
The battle took place in the vicinity of Hay
Market, of in the direction of Sudley Church,
and but lew miles northwest of Bull Run
Helntzelman's corps came up with the enemy g
rear about III O'Clock in the morning, seven
miles from CentervilIe, and found StoneWall
Jackson fighting with Mcdowell or Sigel or
both, On the right. Our informant said nothing
definite had resulted from the days fighting,
which, though continuous, had not been very
bloody.
Others represent, who left the field at four
o'clock, that success was decidedly in favor OF
the Union army, which pushed the rebels sue
| cessiully on both sides.
An Impression prevailed that the reserve OF
Lees army, supposed to be from twenty to
thirty thousand strong, might euddeuly appear
on the field. The railroad had already been
repaired to Bull Run, and supplies were being
transported to there. Before eyacuating Man
assas the rebels paroled seven hundred Union
| lor's brigade and the stragglers.
Gen. Pope's conduct is highly praised by the
Government and in other quarsers.
Nearly one thousand Government clerks re.
paired to the battle fields to attend to the dead
and wounded on both sides. Gen. Wadsworth
| took oil the hacks here and sent them to trans
port the sick and wounded.
The following Is gathered from private sources
Tuesday night report reached Warrenton
Junction that jackson was again in our rear,
and had taken position on the railroad near
Bristow, four miles south Of Manassas, and had
burned two railroad bridges, tore up the track,
aud had taken prisoners all the guards along
the road.
This information subsequent events proved
true.
WASHINGTON, Aug 3l-Private advices from
Fredericksburg up to eight P. M, yesterday,
contradict the reports regarding the burning oil
bridges and destruction of property in that To-
cality. Burnside, at three P. M yesterday, had
possession there.
Forty-three wagon loads of hospital stores left
here Saturday for the battlefield A number oi
physicians have also gone.
| Sunday 1855 A. M.-The enemy was heavily
reinforced yesterday, and attacked Pope's army
before sunrise and on Franklin's arrival the
attack was boldly met and a severe battle fol
lowed.
The advantage on the whole was with the
enemy, and Pope fell back to Centervlle with
his whole army in good condition, and has been
joined by Sumner and Franklin.
He occupies the strongest position in the vi
cinity of Washington, and is expected promptly
to renew the contest.
Every effort should be used to hasten forwart
new troops.
ALEXANDRIA, Aug. 30.--Heavy firing was heart
to-day 10 the direction of Centerville.
Telegraphic communication has been re. es
tablshed to Manassas.
There is still large number of troops il
Alexandria, awaiting transportation to the bat
tle-feld.
Pope's statement that Heintzelman's corps
would move on the enemy at daylightis confirm
ed by heavy firing from that vicinity.
L RurnOrs OF various successes reach US, bu
need confirmation.
Yesterday rebel scouts were seen at LoDgley's
near Chain Bridge. Every precaution wa
taken to prevent a surprise from that diroc
tion:
, There is intense anxiety here to get the par
ticulars of the recent fight, but the reports arr
go indefinite as not to justify repetition.
General Schenck arrived to-day, severel
wounded in the right wrist
The following are some casualties in the re
cent battle, ,unOfficially obtained-Eighty-sec
Ohio, Col. Cantwell, killed; Thirtieth Indiana
