W" clip the following from the Maryland News
Sheet:
A fierce and we'll contested battle took place on
Saturday, the 9th between the forces OF Gen
Pope and those of Stonewall Jackson The en-
Gagemeat commenced at Cedar Mountain, about
eight miles south OF Cupcpcr Court House Early
on Saturday morning Gems. jackson and Ewcll
crossed the Rapidan in force Their advance
guard was speedily brought into collision with the
DIVISION OF Federal troops commanded by Gen.
Banks. During the greater part of the day the
battle was almost wholly confined to the artillery,
but about six o'clock in the afternoon general
engagement cnsued. y bloody and determined
conflict followed, during which the brigade of
Gen. Williams, constituting the right wing OF the
force under General Banks suffered severely The
| Whole OF Banks corps were finally brought INTO
action, and the fight was continued FOR nearly two
hours, when "overpowcrcd by superior numbers,
some Of the regiments retrcatcd in disorder -
Darkness set in soon after and put stop to the
carnage But although the musketry ceased, the
Confederate artillery posted upon Cedar Noun
tain kept up random fire, which was continued
until near midnight In the meantime the Fed
eral troops fell back to the cover Of some woods,
about half mile to the rear Of their original
position, where they were reinforced by the corps
OF Mcdowell and Sicgcl and Gen. Pope taking
command Of the whole in person. the troops of
Banks again fell back half mile, ''rcsting on
their arms in pleasant clover field They were
speedily, however, compelled to abandon their
bivouac, Some Of the men Of Crawford's brigade
incautious made fires that revealed their position
and a number Of shells were thrown by the enemy,
which bursting among trains, ambulances and
horses, created an excitement that finally increased
to a panic. 'The regiments" says the cores
pondent Of the New York Herald, {" took to their
heels to get out of range; and seeing so many men
rctrcating, others that had not reached the field
also started to run, and the roads were crowd
cd with frightened people, who added to the ex-
isting misfortuncs by telling wild stories of re-
pulse and loss and discontinue"
The rcinorcements brought forward by Gen.
Pope, being in advance, held their ground through
the night, and on the following day it was dis
covered that the Confedcratcs had also fallen
back, although the reason which mpclIed them to
do so does not appear to be known.
The loss on both sides is said to be very heavy
On the part of the Fcdcrals it is estimated at not
less than three thousand in killed, wounded and
missing; whilst the Confcdcratcs are supposed to
have lost an equal number The casualties among
the Federal officers are represented having been
unusually numerous.

COMMON SCHOOLS.
Office Of Superintendent Of Common Schools of |
North Carolina, July %, 1862.

70 the Chaiymcn Of The Boards of Snpcriaten-
dcHtx,--G -Genttrmen: At the last meeting of the
Literary Board was directed to request you to
ascertain and report to me, by September next,
the probable amount due from the School Fund ia
your respective Counties, and the amonnt YOU
have in hand to meet those liabilities.
You will, therefore, cndeavor to ascertain, by
the first or middle of September the whole amount
due to teachers and others at that time, and what
will bc due by the last of the year, to Schools in
operation and for other expenses connected with
the Common School System in short, you will
make out estimate of the amount it would re-
quirc in your respective Counties to make the
School System even with the world TO this
statement you will add another showing the whole
amount Of School Funds in the hands of each of
you, and due to you-and send in your report Of
these matters to me as early in September you
can.
1t is the ardent desire of the Literary Board
that Common School System should be kept
up-but if unlookcd-for accidents should cause its
suspension, it is important that it should not be
stopped until its affairs can all be honorably
wound up.
At no time was there ever more need for such
system and it is to be hoped that our legisla-
tors will take those wis views of this subject
which characterized the statesmen of the first
Revolution, and lorbcar to take q step which will
make us dependent for books and teachers, in the
future, OH present, insolent and malignant
enemies, and give new argument to those who
falsely decry the civilization Of the Confederate
States. Under God, our Common School System
has done much to inuse that life, intelligence and
public spirit into the masses of the people so
prccmincntIy conspicuous in the present ilustrious
position of our glorious States and we should
surely be driven to more desperate position than
any our Yankee enemies can force upon us before
we sacrifice an Institution which has shown Itself
to be, under Providence, fountain of3strength
and honor to North Carolina and of prosperity aud
happiness to her people.
But whatever may happen, our system must
maintain its integrity to the last
With much respect, am your friend,

TIE UNION CAUSE AFFECTED.--Thc Yankees
rarely make such candid Acknowledgements as the
loowng taken from the western correspondence
Of the n Y Herald:
CAIRO, Aug 3.-Thcre is no Disgusting the
fact, that throughout Kentucky, Tennessee and
the whole Mississippi region the guerilla raids
have affected the Union cause and the friends of
the Union are in Respondent mood 1t is hard
ly ncccccssary now to inquire into the Of
this unwonted situation Of affairs throughout a re-
gion that has hitherto known only Union vcto-
rics, and from which the Confederate forces had
once been swept but the fact exists that the Fed
crll troops arc thrown wholly upon the defensive,
without the opportunity or apparently the ability
to make a single aggressive move. This little
raid Of Morgan and his band through Kentucky
and across the Ohio brilliant in itself, has sue
ceedcd most admirably in accomplishing the pur-
pose for which it was intended.
The attention Of our Generals has been diverted
and opportunity has been gained for throwing
large bodies Of troops into positions threatening
US in various direct;ens and mcnacing all our i'm
portant positions. The rigid enforcement Of the
conscripton law has given the Confcdcrates under
Bragg an army at least double in number to that
under Grant, and strengthened by the moral pow
cr incident to force fighting on its own soil
against strangers wholly unacquaintcd with that
minute topography Of the country, the knowledge
Of which it is SO rapably essential to success.

HEROIC INCIDENT IN N. ORLEANS

We are indebted to high authority for the facts
of the following occurrence in New Orleans, intel
liocnce of which reached the city yesterday: Mrs
ii NJ Ifvams, wife Of the Lieutcnant-G ovcrnor
of the State passed the street a number Of
Yankee officers sitting in 4 doorway as she went
by. One Of them arose and followed her few
steps, and arresng her progress by placing him
self in front of her. told her that she had omitted
to bow in passing. She attempted to avoid the
ruflian, when he repeated his remark and asked
her if she had not read Gen. Buffers "Orler No.
%" with reference to the treatment Of Union
officers and soldiers with respect. Endcavoring
TO nass the fellow, he threw his arm round the
lady's waist, and pressed his foul lips upon her
face. As the villain released her from his en-
brace, the Southern lady cOolly drew pistol and
shot him through the body SO that he fell dead at
her feet in the insoIcnt flush Of mis- cowardly
triumph over the insultcd virtue Of Il feeble and
UNPROTECTED woman
Another Of the officers Immediately arose, and
annroaching the noble and courageous lady took
her by the arm and told her, so that the other
Fcdcrals could hear, that she must accompany
him before Gen. Butler. He Immediately placed
her in a cab and drove away-but not to the
beasts quarters He directed the cab out of the
city and through the line Of scntrcs, and further
on still, until beyond the reach Of the tyrants
outposts. The act Of the heroine had made a
hero Of the witness. He told her that he con-
sdered her act justifabIe and noble, and that in
moment he haG determined that she could not be
sacrificed to Buffers vengeance, and adopted the
expedicnt by which he had rescued her. He con-
tinued to escort her on her journey through the
country until they arrived in the Southern lines
at Camp Moore, when he delivered himself up to
the Confederate authorities, to be dealt with as
prisoner or otherwise.
So ends this heroic and dramatic incident Of
the war. Mrs. Hyams has set a lofty example Tor
Southern women, and the gallant gentleman who
delivered her has shamed its army and the whole
North. We trust he has rcn0uneed forever the
service Of the opprcssors, and that rank equiva-
lent to his deserts may reward him in ours

A DARING FEAT.

On the evening of the 9th inst, and after the
battle was over for that day, four members Of the
9th Va. regiment, which had participated in the
hottest Of the fight took it into their heads to have
little private reconnaissance into the Yankee
lines, their own account. Their names arc
Hospital Steward Patton, Color-bearcr Powell,
Lieut. Edgar, and Sergeant Davis. The enemy
mad been driven three miles, and the 9th rcgi-
ment was resting for the night on the remote line
Of the battlefield next to their rear column. Af-
ter travelling cautiously for several hundred yards
without interruption, these four daring Conlcdcr-
ate soldiers having only two muskes in their pos
session. passed into the Federal lines. Shortly af-
tcrwards they heard low talking in some thick un-
dcrbrush, and Immediately demanded: 'Who's
there Y '.Union pickets,'' was the quick rcjoin-
der. "Advancc Union pckcts, throw down your
arms, and surrender, or VIC will fire into you, for
you are our prisoners" at once exclaimed Patton.
"Who are land how many Of you !' asked the
'Union pickets,' with evident alarm. "You will
soon find out, said Powell. "Whcel into line
cock your guns, and be prepared to fire at the
word-steady, boys, steady" "Hold on" fairly
shrickcd the "Union pickcts," We are coming
don't fire, for Gods sakc~ "Comc on then, at
once, for we have no time to waste here in idle
talk" broke in Edgar and Davis, simultaneously.
Immediately afterwards, one by one, they came
forward throwing their muskets, side arms, &c,
at the feet Of Powell, who received them with dig
nifty. but convulsive laughter concealed. One
who seemed to be an officer stepped up to Patton,
and presented brace Of fine pistols and ten
dollar United States note as a bribc to let him cs-
cape.
'No, no." said Patton, ''you may keep your
money, but we will take both you and your pistols
into our custody"
When the last of the :'Union pickcts" had come
forward and found such disparity in the number
of captors and captives, for moment he seemed
to hesitate whether to yield or not. Instantly the
click Of two muskct cocks was heard, aud two
muzzlcs pointing directly at the doubling
and waverng captive, 1t is needless to add, that
no one deposited his arms the heap quicker
than he. In few moments thereafter these four
intrepid Confederate "rebcis" marched into the
camp Of the 9th M'Hee" captured "union pick
cts" and handed them over TO be sent to the rear.
This incident is vouchcd for by a reliable off
Ger, who was present when the caFtives were
brought in.-Richno"d Dipotch.
