STILL LATER.
ANOTHER GREAT BATTLE I
Heavy Loss on both Sides.

HEADQUARTERS, FIELD OF BATTLE,
GRovEToN, near Gainesville, Aug. 80.
To HgoT General Il. W. Rallsck, Com
mqnder IN Oiief:-We fonght terrific bat
tie here yesterday, with the combined for
ces of the enemy, which lasted with con-
tinuous fury from daylight until after dark,
by which time the enemy was driven from
the field, which we now occupy. Our
troops are too much exhausted yet to push
matters, but shall do it ia the course of
the morning, as soon as Fitz John Porter's
corps comes US from Manassas. The enc
my is still in our front, but they are badly
used up. We have lost not less than
eight thousand men killed and wounded.
From the appearance of the field theen-
emy lost at least two to our one. He stood
strictly on the defensive, and every ass
sault was made by ourselves. Our troops
behaved splendidly, the . battle was
fought in the identical battle field Of
Bull Run, which fact greatly increased
the enthusiasm Of our men. The news
just reaches me from the front, that the
enemy is retreating toward the mountains.
l 60 forward ct once to see. We have
made great captures, but am not able
yet to form an idea of their extent.

THE RAID ON MANASSAS.

Ma MANASSAS JUScTIoss Aug. 2f-
Ee have had an exciting day of it, as I
VIII relate. The guard ct Manassas con-
sisted Of about 1000 men, which, with the
army long way In advance, would be con-
sidered sufficient to hold ii, and look out
for everything in the neigbborhood. We
fsneied ourselves secure enough, but had
not neglected the usual precautions to pre-
vent 8 surprise.
At ten O'clock this forenoon the random
firing Of our pickets gave warning that
something was wrong, and but few min
utes elapsed before they came running in
closely followed by cavalry, which we at
once recognized to be anything but friends.
Not knowing the force We were attacked
by, and having no means Of discovering,
retreat became the order Of the day, and
excellent time was made on our side.
Ths surprise, or rather the approach, was
50 sudden that no defence could be made.
As 1t was, our rstreat was not quick
enough; for the rebsl cavalry succeeded in
capturing a number OF men, and commit
ting any amount Of dspredstionS. Our

The New York Herald suggests that Gen.
Halleek should at once apply to General
stuarts rebel cavalry the same rule which
he has enforced against newspaper cores
psndents, and that they be excluded Who'll
y from the lines Of our army. They GER
tainly get a great deal more valuable in
formation than our Press could give them,
especially if the report is true that they
dashed in one morning and seized all Gen.
POpe's baggage Priyste papers, charts,
maps, So, including Gen. Halleck's dis
patches, plans Of the campaign, and spe-

THE ANNIVERSARIES.
ANNIVERSARY OF THE DEAF AND DUMB
INSTITUTION.

The anniversary Of the Deaf and Dumb Asyiumi
located about nine miles from this city, was held
Yesterday afternoon at Irving Hail. in the presence
Of large audience. About fory-twO OF the pu-
pills OF the Institution, young men and meses, wero
sea'ed upon the PLATFORM and participated 10 the exc
ercises, Which were of an unusually interesting char
acter. After prayer by the Rev. Mr.. VAN LESHEss,
of Cons'antinople, Mr.. PEET, the President OF the
Asylum stated that there were at present $40 pupils
under his care-l60 males, and l5j females; but,
owing TO the expense and inconvenience OF getting
TO and from the city 1t impossible for the ON
cera to bring forward larger number OF scholars.
Seleo ion- bad been made from the different classes,
i'll order to show the progress made in the instruc.
zion Of mutes, from the commencement to the COM
petiOn Of their education.
Two boys aud two girls. between Is and l6 years
Of age were then introduced, and examined in tho
elementary branches Of an English education, Ia
which they disp phycd a remarkable degree OF pro.
Gciency, considering that, when they entered tho
Asylum, eight months ago, neither knew their own
name. They wrote upon tue blackboard, with
great accuracy, their names, ages, places of resi-.
dence beside answering many other questions that
were propounded III the sgn-language by their in
structor, Mr. Benedict. Tae members OF the higher
classes who have been eight years under Instructions
were next examined in geography, arithmetic, MS
tory, cheuistry, and other studies. Examples were
