The Battle of Bull Run.

Washington, Aug 81.
To-day's Evening Star speaking OF
Fridays battle says it was continued by
the corps of Heintzlcman, Sigel and Nc
Dowell against force numbering about
sixty thousand, consisting OF jackson s
and Porter entire forces, also Lees army
which had succeeded ia getting from
White Plains through Thoroughfarc
Gap. The battle took place in the vicin-
ity of Hay Market off in the direction OF
Sudley Church. and buta few miles norh-
east Of Bull Run. Gen. Pope's statement
that Heintzleman's corps would move on
the enemy at daylight is confirmed by
heavy firing heard in that vicinity. Ru-
mors of various successes reach US, but
need confirmation.
Yesterday rebel scouts were seen at
Longley's. near Chain Bridge. Every
prccaution has been taken to prevent a
surprise in that direction. The impress
sion prevails that the rebels have been
entrapped and the result of recent ma
ncuveringi is looked forintensely. Heint-
zlemup's corps came up with the enemy's
rear about 10 o'clock, seven miles from
Centreville, and found Stonewall Jackson
fighting Mcdowell or sigel, or both, on
the right. Our informant said nothing
definite resulted from this days fighting,
which, though continuous, had not been
very bloody. Others represent, who left
the field at A o'clock, that success was
decidedly in favor of the Union army.
which pushed the rebels successfully on
both sides. An impression prevailed that
tic reserve of Lees army, supposed to
be from twenty to forty thousand strong,
might suddenly appear on the field. The
Railroad bridge has already been repaired
to Bull Run and supplies are being trans
ported there. Before evacuating Manas
sas, the rebels paroled TOO Union prison.
ers. This included 500 of Taylor's Brig
ade and the stragglers.

Various Reports.
Washington, Aug. 80.


Gen. Pope's conduct is highly praised
In government and other quarters. Nearly
one thousand government clerks repaired
to the battlefield to attend TO dead and
wounded of both sides. Gen. Wadsworth
took all the hacks here and sent them to
transport sick and wounded.
The following is gathered from private
sources: Tuesday night report reached
Warrenton Junction that jackson was
again in our rear, end had taken position
on the railroad near Bris;ow, four miles
south Of Manassas, burned two railroad
bridges, tore up the track, and had taken
prisoners al the guard along the road
Thisinformation subsequent events proved
true.
