The Great Victory.

1t is melancholy thought
That victory must bp dearly bought
That many patriot must he slain,
triumph Ger base foes to gain,
And make vile Rebels rue;
Alas, that any traitor deed
SHOULD cause au honest heart to hleed
Alas, that felon hosts should claim
The soldiers doom, the soldiers fame;
TO truth and honor due
But let our slaughtered heroes be
Embalmed iu grateful memoryi
In brass and marble write their praise,
And trophies let the nation raise
To virtues so adored;
While for the unpiiied cuipTit dead,
No anthem peals, no prayer is said,
But on each perjurcd lenders head
Contempt and execratiOns dread,
In torrents shall be poured.
At Tower Hall we raise the cry,
The Joyful note of "victOry."
But oh, the melancholy thought,
That victory was 80 dearly bought
In the contemplation Of our great successes II

be forgotten that we are prepared at Tower Hall

FROM NEW YORK.

NEW YORK, Oct 2o.
General Bragg has furnished an official
report Of the battle of Perrysville, Ken
tucky, in which he claims a great victory,
which he says only for the approach Of
night would have been completed by driy-
ing our troops from their position.
The Dispatch, Of the 24th, says Bragg's
army has retired to q safe position, which
it would be imprudent to state. General
Bragg, it says, has secured 400 wagons,
loaded with provisions, which have been
brought away in safety with his army. he
lost 9, 800 barrels of pork, which were left
at Lexington, and fell into the hands Of
the Yankees. Great dissatisfaction was
feltamong the officers Of Bragg's army at
the falling back, and many of them literal
ly wept when the order was given. The
conclusion to be drawn from all the news
in our possession, continues the Dispatch,
is that Bragg has either met such an over
whelming force of the enemy, and success
fully retreated before it with large stores
Of provisions, or that he has been too timid,
and made forced marches and fought and
wearied his troops for an object which he
had not daring enough to accomplish.
