Official Report of the Battle of Cedar Run

AL
CEDAR MOUNTAIN. Aug. 18-5P. M.
To Maj. Gen. Ralleck, Conamander-in-. Chief,
On Tuesday morning the enemy crossed
the Rapidan, at Barret's Ford, in heavy
force, and advanced strong on the road to
Culpepper and Madison Court House. /
had established my force on the turnpike be-
tween Culpepper and Springville, ready to
concentrate at either place as 500 n as the
enemy's plans were developed. Early on
Friday it became apparent that the move on
Madison Court House was merely a feint to
drive the army corps of Gen. Sigel at Spring
vile, and that the main attack of the enemy
would be at Culpepper, to which place had
thrown forward part of Banks's aud mellow
ell's corps. Brig. Gen. Bayard, with part
of the rear of McDowell's corps, who was
in advance near the Rapidan. fell slowly back,
delaying and embarrassing the enemy's ad-
vance far as possible, and capturing some
of his men.
The forces of Banks and Sigel, and one
oil the divisions of McDowell's corps were
rapidly concentrating at Culpepper during
Friday and Saturday nights, Banks's corps
being pushed forward five miles south of
Culpepper, with Ricketts, division of Nc
Dowell's corps three miles in his rear
The corps of Gen. Sigel, which had
marched all night, was halted at Culpepper
to rest few hours. On Saturday the enc
my advanced rapidly to Cedar Mountain,
the sides of which they occupied in heavy
force.
Gen. Banks was instructed to take up his
position on the ground occupied by Craw-
ford's brigade of his command, which had
been thrown out the day previous to observe
the enemy's movements. He was directed
not to advance beyond that point, and il
attacked by the enemy to defend his position
and send back timely notice.
1t was my desire to have time to give the
corps of Gen. Sigel all the rest possible af-
ter their forced march, and to bring forward
all the forces at my disposal.
The artillery of the enemy opened freely
IN the afternoon, but he made no advance
until nearly five clock, at which time few
skirmishers were thrown forward on each
side under cover of the heavy wood in
which his force was concealed. The enc
my pushed forward a strong force in the
rear of his skirmishers, and Gen. Banks ad-
Vanced to the attack. The engagement did
not freely open until after six O'clock, but
for an hour and half was furious and un-
ceaslng throughout. The caunonading. |
which was at first desultory, was directed
mainly against the cavalry.
had continued to receive reports from
Gen. Banks that no attack was appIehended. |
and that no considerable infantry force of
the enemy had come forward yet. Towards |
evening the increase of the artillery firing
having satisfied me an engagement might be /

Great War Meeting in wheeling.
WHEELING, Va,

"hEELINGs va, aug. IL.
The greatest meeting of the war in West
ern Virginia was held in the spacious freight
house of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad,
in this city tonight
Governor Pierpoint presided over the vast
concourse. and in eloquent terms introduced
Hon. John Sherman, Hon John A. Biug-
ham. of Ohio. and Hon. w. T. Wiley, Sen
ator from this State. Among the distin-
guished strangers present was General
Kelley.
The large depot was brilliantly illumina-
ted and hung with flags and mottoes-one
of the most prominent was mo Vallandig-
ham. no Carlisleism, but Union and Lib
erty Forever" another, "Once, all means
to conciliate; now, all means to crush.''
One of the resolutions denounced John
j. Carlisle as traitor to his constituents
and to the Union, end called upon him to
resign his position in the Senate which he
had disgraced.

From Washington.

Gen. Halleck has decided that the shortest
way is the best to put stop to rebel inso-
lence in constantly threatening what terri
bic things they will do if we don't continue
the war on conciliatory terms, and has in :
closed in an envelope JEFF. Davis's letter
about Gen. Pope, the rebel Adjutant Gen
erals order, and other papers forwarded to
him by rebel authorities, and returned them
to Richmond without one word in answer.
The inference of course is that they are too
insulting to receive any attention.
Cassius M. Clay has returned to New
York. The statement made day or two
ago, that he will go back to Russia, proves
correct. He himself said yesterday, that he
would be glad to serve his country here, but
he found bis views of the mode of conducting
the war, 80 far as slavery is connected, could
not be harmonized with those of the Adj
ministration, and it would not, therefore.
do for him to go into the war, because he
would constantly be hampered, and if tempt
ed TO do what he thought necessary would,
probably, be shelved like Fremont.
The career of one military charlatan has
finally been cut short. Gen. Benham's
name has been stricken from the rolls of the
army. Those who have known him will
have only wondered that the result did not
come sooner. r.
The importance of movements now in
progress by certain portions of our armies
in Virginia, cannot be over-estimated; de-
tails, however, cannot be given for some
days.-Mo. Democrat.
The Emporia news. [volume] (Emporia, Kan.) 1859-1881, 1862-08-23

Can We expect peace in Kansas, with
Rebel successes from the Rappahanpoek to
the Missouri? One thing at least this war
has proyen-that the Rebels Improve hbeir
opportunities -. folloa0 up their successes
Every success that crowns their arms on
the Potomac is followed by fresh demon
stration against US along the whole line. II
they are beaten, it only nerves them to des-
peration and fresh effort.
To-day the Rebels are triumphant, jubi-
liant. along the whole liue They have
broken the cord with which we vainly
sought to bind them, in hundred places,
and our army is isolated and surrounded in
the midst of the enemy's country.
More MEN are needed Of course, we
need a policy as well as MEN but the army
can make policy as well rs make war, and
will do it, if necessary.
Let no man hold back from enlisting be-
cause his neighbors may fail in their duty.
Let every man do his duty first, and then
rsproach those who do not.
We know that there are thousands who
would go, ''if their business was only set
tied up.'' And we know, too, that if all
waited on account of their business, there
would be neither army to save the country
or country to be saved. The calls of bust
ness are trivial, compared to the call of our
country.
Shall it be said of this people that they
went blindly on in pursuit of the gaiuc of
peace. while the very ground on which they
trod was being tent beneath their feet ?
while the institutions which gave them
peace, prosperity and liberty were threat
ened with destruction We trust not. 1t
would be equivalent to saying that the peo-
pie were unworthy of the Government and
of Freedom.
Kansas lies behind Missouri. Federal
defeats mean danger to Kansas, which is in
q great degree isolated from her sister States
of the North. Extra precaution is therefore
necessary. In case of an emergency, no
help can be expected from abroad. Kan
sas will be obliged to take care of herself.
Shall We fail to do it? Let the muster
rolls OF the new regiments answer!

She sat by her parlor window
Miriam, the wife of Brown
Her eye wandered over her carpet
Twas new one she'd just put down.
She looked at her chairs and pictures,
At her various trifes and toys;
There was no one to disarrange them

HON. GEO. A. CRAWFORD

Spoke to the people of Emporia on Thurs
day night, presenting his claims for the of
fee of Governor. His speech was well
received, and had good effect on those
who heardit. He advocated union of po-
rlitical parties, in very eloquent and pow
erful manner. He stated that in all the
border counties the loyal men were laying
down party and uniting their efforts in po-
litical matters; and also in some of the
western counties. He did not want 10 be
considered party candidate, and would
not accept nomination from any party.
Mr.. Crawford asked what use there could
be in keeping mp the Republican party :?
Had it not accomplished its great mission {?
Had it not elected its President-pa passed its
law giving land to the landless-its Pacific
Railroad bill-and abolished Slavery in the
District of Columbia and ali the Terrific
ries :? There is the rub, Mr.. Crawford |!
The Republicans have fought for years to
accomplish these things. They have got the
power, and now the Democrats, true to their
in stinets, want to share the offices. We may
be bound too much by party spirit, but we
ack nowledge we cannot help but think that
the party which accomplished all these
great things ought to Lave the reward, if
there is any reward in holding the offices of
the country. Mr.. G. asked what difference
there was between loyal Democrat and a
loyal Republican? None at all; but we would
ask him if he ever knew disloyal Republi-
can? We are for union. The Republican is
mphatically the Union party. It's gooI
enough for us. If the people see fit, in
September. through their Convention, to
make ticket giving the Democrats the
Governor and a portion of the other State
officers, why, we shall submit; but our
choice would be for a Republican ticket
throughout. 81
Mr.. G. laid his greatest claim upon the
people of this vicinity, because be was a
Southern Kansas man, and thought he
could accomplish much for tie people of
this portion of the State.
His position on the NEGRO question"
was right. He said his doctrine was that if
Slavery stood in the way of the suppression
of the Rebellion. strike it down. The ne
groes were remaining at home in the South
to raise bread for the Rebels. He was for
taking possession of them and turning them
to the purposes of the Government, and
thereby giving death blow to the Rebel
lion.

John Francis, of the Olathe Mirror, can
dIdate for Superintendent of Public Iustruc-
ton. has lately been advocating the propo-
sition through his paper, of allowing Pom
eroy and Lane. our Senator'S, to elect the
Congressman, and then let the State Con-
vention put that man in nomination. These
two men are to have control of the Offices.
according to Johns idea. The people and
the delegates will have nothing to say about
it. At first We thought the Airror was jo-
king, but it is really in earnest, as We see by
the last Issue. There must be soft spot
somewhere in the Mirror head. The idea is
too ridiculous to be entertained.
