Afternoon Report.
Jnsuccessful. Attack by the Enemy

Unsuccessful Attack by the Enemy.
NRW, YoRK, October l6-Fhe Times
correspondent writes from the Army, of the
Potomac on the 18th as follows !. The
enemy made two desperate and nusueeess-
full attempts to-day TO whip this army in
detail and destroy our trains, but in both
most signaIly failed.
Just at daybreak, between CatletFs Sta
ton and Auburn, Stuart and A. P. Hill
made simultaneous attack upon Gen.
Gregg's cavalry and the second army corps.
Almost the fret intimation given of their
presence was the opening Of their batteries
on the second corps. Our troops were
speedily in position and the enemy was
repulsed with heavy loss.
Late In the afternoon Hill made q second
dash TO cut of the second corps. BE first
attacked the rear of the second corps, kill
ing three of the Pennsylvania Reserves
aud wOunding 10 or 20.
When the head of the second corps reach
Little Run, near Bristow's Hill, it made
terrible ongslught ON the rebels. The
second corps was on the eastern side Of
the railroad and used the road embank-
ment at several points for breastwOrks
with decided advantage. The enemy charg-
ed at one time up to the embankment when
portion of the second corps charged In
turn, capturing 700 or 800 prisoners and
one battery.
Several charges were made aud each
time the enemy were forced back with great
slaughter, leaving their killed and wounded
in our hands. .4zf s.=.e
IhaVe been unable to obtain full list
of our killed aud wounded, but it is not
large. a55s
Capt. Ball, of the Sd MIMI, was wound
ed in three places and under the most ag.
gravating circumstances. When the enemy
charged up the railroad, finding themselves
in a dangerous place, they threw up their
hands in token Of surrender. At this in-
slant Capt Ball spraug to the top of the
embankment. A vOlley was fred at him,
three shots taking effect. The Minnesota
ans returned the fire, aud many rebels
suffered death in retaliation for this act Of
treachery.
Our trains are all safe. There was some
artillery practice this morning near Rap.
pahannock Station, but without much
damage.
The LIST MINI. cavalry, Col. Smith, which
was cut off on Monday night, near Jetfer-
son, across the Rappahannoek, reached
Bristow Station Tuesday night.
The regiment escaped with the loss OF o
squad of men, 20 in all, sent to communal
cate with Gen. Gregg. Our army behaved
handsomely.

,Ss-4JUsr1FIGBLB HoaIcrDE." -This


,bs verdict rendered yesterday morning in
The case of James Collins, charged with
me murder of John ". Lewis. on the End
d.v of May last. The jury were unable
~ agree on Thursday night. Yesterday
morning about halt past 8 o'clock they
came into the Court room, which was
nre,,v we'll crowded with spectators. The
neopie we're eager, and the utmost silence
D,ersiled. The announcement of the Clerk
that the jury had rendered verdict of
niostfable homicide" was received with
utter amazement 1t is true that The; law
gives the evidence to the jury, and when
ntbe twelve" render decision that is the
end of it, but how any twelve sensible men,
free from political prejudice aud personal
bias, could, by any possible course of rea-
sOniug, come to such a conclusion, is a
mystery to us. The verdict has shocked
the whole community. Every disinterest-
cd person who heard or read the evi.
deuce must have come to. the conclusion
that Collins committed an unprovoked
murder if ever an unprovoked murder was
perpetrated. After firing the fatal shot,
and while his CHASTITY victim was yet lying
upou the road before him, he deliberately
reloaded his gun and walking away said
he would shoot the next abolitionist he
met. Not the next one who attempted to
take his life or modest his person, but the
ns1t abOlltionist he met. When overtaken
BY those who followed him he struggled
violently for the possession of his gun, and
only gave it up when another bayonet was
presented to his breast. And yet in the
face of these incontrovertable facts, plain
ly presented, jury of twelve rational men
render vertict of "justi6able homicide"
Such verdicts will make our Courts moth
ing more than places for the performance
Of farces and our law thing to be Knocked
at. We shall have no security for our lives
and red handed murder will be licensed in
our midst. Robert Pool was executed in
this city six months ago for a crime, in our
Judgment, far less enormous.
We do no more than express the univer-
sal sentiment of community, that cannot
but feel itself outraged. when we say that
the verdict of this jury, was in every re-
spect, contrary to the law and the evidence,
and that murderer has been turned loose
upon society free to go and come as he may
choose. ..-..',.,,.,.
His natural that a jury should sympa-
thise with the wife and helpless children of
the man who is tried for his life, but some-
thing is demanded for the unoffending VIC
tim who is ruthlessly sent into the pres
ence of his God without moments warn
ing and with all his imperfections on his
head" tits also natural that certain
class of men, in the present state of the
country, should sympathise with person
who kills one id abolitiouist aud an
nOuuces his intention to kill another, but
it seems to US that solemn oath ought to
restrain that sympathy within the bounds
of reason and justice, and when it ceases to
do SO tits time that the lovers of law and
order should be aroused to the danger that
menaCes society.

h9~THE Next Coal RuN.-It is rough
Iy estimated that there are now 1000, 900
bushels of coal in the boats and barges,
on the pools of the Mouougahela, awaiting
shipment to Cincinnati, Louisville, aud
points below. This amount is much less
than might be expected, and indeed less
than some persons claim. The principal
reason why the amount is not double, is
because of the inability of coal merchants
to procure barges in which to float it to
market. The scarcity of diggers has also
operated, ia some degree, to lessen the
amount. The high prices in the lower
markets, however, will insure an ample
supply as soon as there is sufficiency of
water to get the product to the points of
consumption. The entire 1900, 900 bush
els will go out at the first rise, and this
will last the consumers below until the
barges are returned for another run. Mer.
chants are now anxiousIy awaiting the rise
which generally takes place about election
time, but at present the prospects seem ex-
ceedingly remote. The rise may come in
aweek, or it may be "postponed' until
snow falls on the mountains.
