The advancing Of our batteries 1000 yards with.

ing of rebel regiment for the batteries support
was the fourth cause of tina. disaster If these guns
had not been captured and turned upon our own
troops. the strong probabilities that we should
at eas, have held the field, and that panic would
| have ensued.
| Capt. Griffin Of Griffin's Battery, who had been
placed In this advanced position, says:
| AFTER had beeG there about five minutes regi-
ment Of ConfederAtes got over fence my front,
and some oficer-I took 1t to be the Coionel-step

Barry rode up to me- and said Captain don't fire
there, those are your battery support l said,

are your battery support" Isprang to my pieces,
and told my officer not to fire there He threw

faced them 70 the left and marched them about fifty
] yards to the woods then faced them to the right

and then OPT ned fire upon us and that was the last

Before this occurred started to timber up my

were the Contederates But, as the Chief OF Artii,

know it is the battery support; 1t Is the regiment
taken there by Col - Very well. said l.

Col. Averill says;

DIFFICULTY WITH THE FEDERAI.s IN NORFOLK.
The Norfolk (va) Union (Yankee) gives an az.
coun. Of brutal outrage committed in that city
by a Secessionist on newsboy 1t says:
A little boy selling Northern papers accosed q
Young man upon the street with q view of dspos-
ing of his wares when he was rebufTed in a most
brutal manner The father of the lad being present
demonstrated against the treatment of his when
the young SecessioDist drew a knife on him. There
some excitement. but no damage was done by
the Incl pent assassin.
Subsequently he was arrested by the Provost
Guard aud placed In prison. Several gentlemen OF
responsibility called upon Provost Marshal Christ
and urged the release Of the culprit on ball.
offering any amount, and claiming consideration for
the offender on the score Of the respectablty Of
his connections. Capt. Christensen. to his praise be
1t said declined to accede to the request. With
trmness which does him Infinite honor that able Of
tcer intimated to the friends OF the young man
that he deemed the position Of the indivdual-his
respectabiiity of relatives and intelligence-an ag-
gravaton OF the crime, and he would not accept
bail
The offender. we are informed, is nephew Of
Chief Justice fancy, aud but recently held COM
mission in the rebel army, and is at large upon pa
role. We hope an example will be made in this
case 1t is quite time that the rampant Secession
ism of Norfolk received saiutary check, and
fairer opportunity was never offered to give q
wholesome lesson to these who are inclined to overt
acts. Let the respectfully connected violator Of

regard for peace and good order demands that it
should be SO. And think it quite reasonable
here to observe that it may be well to inquire how
far the Secessionsts here are encouraged 10 carry
concealed weapons.
THE TREATMENT OF THE FEDERAL WOUNDED.
The correspondent of the New York Herald, who,
week or two since. highly praised the humanity
Of the Confederate Surgeons to the enemys wound
ed, now says:
Their own wounded provided with ade.
quate accommodations in the houses and pleasant
hospitals of Richmond. while ours were not taken
to the city till Tuesday week after the battle
Many of them had in the meantime died of their
wounds, and most of those were inferred near the
station. At length our wounded were transferred
to Richmond. and regarded not as wounded, but
prisoners OF war; They were placed in various
warehouses, prisons where the air was impure and
the ventilation shocking. No surgeons were pro-
vided for them, save the single surgeon in charge OF
each hospital, and These took means to relieve
our sufferers, save in single case, when . rebel
surgeon produced a rusty saw and amputated a leg.
The patient afterwards died. OF all the rebel la
dies that Oficious in attending to their
MANNED not one appeared among the wounded and
dying strangers that crowded their city.
SOUTHERN FEMALE SPIES-lIISS BELLE BOYD.
A letter dated Front Royal, Va, July 10Th. pub
lished in the Philadelphia Inquirer, says of South
ern female spies:
These women the most accomplished In
Southern circles. They are introduced under as
suued names to our officers, to avoid detec
ton recognition from those to whom their names
are known, but their persons unknown. BY such
means they enabled to frequently meet COM
bnedly, but at eparate times the officers of every
regiment in whole column and by simple compi
lation and comparation Of notes, they achieve a
full knowledge Of the strength Of entirs force
Has modern warfare a parallel to the of
such accomplishments for such purpose p
The chief of these spies is the celebrated
Belle Boyd. Her acknowledged superiority
for Vaccination and intrigue has given her
the leadership and control Of the female spies in
the Valley Of Virginia. She Is a resident Of Mar
tinsburg, when at home. and has q pious, good old
mother, who regrets AZ much as any one caa
the violent and eccentric course of her daughter
since this rebellion has broken out. Belle has pass
ed the freshness Of youth She II G sharp-featured,
black-eyed woman of % care and intrigue have
given her that appearance. Last summer, whilst
Patterson's army lay at Martinsburg, she wore q
revolver in her belt, and courted and hattered
who ever saw her. There was kind of Di Vernon
dash about her, q smart pertness. q quickness of
rStort, and utter abandon of manner and bearing
which were attractive from their very romantic un
w0ntedness
The father of this resolute black eyed vixen Is
