THE FIGHT IN GILES.

Won Gar, GILrs Co., May 10, 1862.


10 ths Editor Of the F1ig.
am hardly in condition to write the noise and din
of battle has not yet died away The glorious from
the East vas received in camp yesterday, while pre-
pairing for so onward movement. II received with
cheers which made the Old mountains and hills echo and
rs-echo
! am happy to tell you that We have met the enemy
aud have completely routed them.
Wauoved from Shannon's Gap, Pulaski county, last
night about o'clock. Our forces consisted Of the Ash
Virginia Regiment Col Peters; the 22i Virginia. Co.
e N. Patton; Capt. Lorings battery, and two pieces
OF the Oey battery. Qua movements entirely un-
known TO the enemy, and not until advance guards
fred upon their pickets did the enemy dream We were
nearer than Is miles OF them.
Jus, IS the sun creeping from behind the noun
tain tops we opened upon them with our battery the
4,h gun, the fret to give them q morning salute The
enemy hastily formed the top of hill, protected by
AL fence. From the bes, information received, con.
Clude tha; they numbered about 500 300 Infantry
ard 100 cavalry. mus: say, to give them due credit
that their defence, at first was desperate but We
implied by different motives to fight The soil OF
he Ola Dominion TO he rescued from the hands Of
he Yaadals and with hearty good. will did We enter
INTO H.
They repulssd and pursued for six milss-the
position occupy tsksa- nust no. fail TO
dOn that the - made mos: brilliant charge up hill
| and drove the enemy from their position.
COL Patton was dangerously wounded. Our loss in
killed. Souaded and missing is small that Of the enemy
cannot ascertain but it Is thought to exceed ours
We have recap:urei this county. At the Courthouse
found Gil their commits ary siores-theiF late os-s
-us lot Of arms and ammunition, and from 20 to 90
horses
have not further tim, to weary you with details
Tue friends Of the Oey battery may assured that
they will always be heard from in every battle which
may occur.
Yours, PLUsRC5.

csption il war The French said during the Pc
ninsuar contest to srm deny the capture OF cities
or the existence Of armies with every asssyeAton which
usually accompanies truth. Gen. Scott who appreci-
and Is greatly indebted lsehood for the impos-
tons be long prsctised upon the South is said to
have devoted hour every day to preparing dispatches
for teegraphio circulation and Gen. Mcclellan, mitat
ing the great masters Of the art of Wsr publishes bue
tins which only astonish by their mendaciy. If half he
has published were true he should be cAshiered for not
having the South in his power six months ago.
There IS however, much encouragement to be derived
from observing the exercise of this natural vice by the
Yankee Il has varied IN e1avsgauos with their auc
tuatpg fortunes Whenever they have felt pres.
sure il has been counteracted far possible by
truth Just in proportion to the e1igency Of the mo-
ment is the enormity of the lie
The two special Yankee appFehensons at present are
the Intervention Of European Powers and the failure of
their resources. Hence, they magnify the extent
ald effect Of any casual advantage and deny outright
every iIjury which they receive at our hands.
We derive from this couragement for new eXerons
and Cor far greater escrRces Present will Influence
our prospects greatly If We check the debarcson and
advance Of their troops-f We resOlutey destroy the

prehensons of the Yankees will be realized. Europe will
deem the time has arrived for demanding cessation Of
arms the North will see the destruction Of all pro-
perry the consequence Of prolonged var, and both
these interests will prove too strong for the military ad
venturers and contractors who desire the to 20 on
because peace would remand them to their native OBJ
security.
Let eur readers thus estimate properly the meaning Of
Yankee lies. Whenever they observe especially
sggerated fssshood, rely that it is intended to
cover particularly weak position. Whenever their re-
pors wear semblance Of truth il may be apprehended
they are content with the actual strength Of their ad
Vansges As no symptom OF the latter has yet APP
