The ReraLds correspondent with Sheri-
dan, in his account Of the great victory
says:
The enemy was first met at Darksviile
by Averili, who drove in their pickets. At
the same time, however, brisk firing was
heard on the left. Averill then formed
his whole division and advanced. Find
ing the enemy in line at Bunker Hill. They
proved to be Imboden's force of retreating
cavalry. Just as our artillery was brought
I'D and opened FIRE this force scsmpered off
in the most ridiculous manner. Their ar
tillery then opened briskly and was res
ponded to by Miers.
Averill swung his force round 50 as to
bring it upon the ear Of the rebel srtil-
lery, at the same time our front pressed
forward Simultaneous with these move
ments q Aanking column was sent around
to the left. The enemy became confused
ana we pressed forward, silenced their ar
tillery and drove off the supporting in
fantrt.
This movement broughtabout 8 junction
of AverilIs and Custa2s forces, who had
crossed the creek higher up. They had
not met with so much opposition, though
at Brucetown they encountered a heavy
force, which they attacked vigorously
| while Averill was croWding the enemy
from an opposite direction, forcing them
to get out Of their position, as soon a
possible. Averilfs division was on the
right of the pike Merritfs division on the
left of it; Custar's brigade on Merritt
right, and Powells on the extreme left
Thus formed after going a mile or so
the en- emy's cavalry was found In line
We advanced to drive it, whel
the enemy made charge against our lefl
centre, striking full on Custar's front.
/ AS this column approached, we prepared
TO meet it. Sabres were drawn and al
was got ready. On came the rebels, thei
sabers flashing, and with hideous yell
scattering themselves so as to make theil
line Of attack as herte as possible. Jus
as they got within pistol-range Of Custa1
his brigade went forward recklessly uPol
the foe. Then, too, the whole Of AverilPi
line dashed forward to flank the attacking
partv. The rebels could not stand this at
tack. They gave way, and on went ou
chargers, cutting and slashing througl
their ranks.

Col. Thompson, of the LIST Iowa cavalry,
Just from Little Rock, says;
1t was understood there that twenty to
thirty thousand rebels. under Price, had
crossed the Arkansas river between Little
Rock and Fort Smith, and all eommunica-
ton cut between those points.
It's not known whether Price would
strike for Fort Smith or march directly for
this State. Shelby is expected to co-ope-
rate with him and enter the State from the
southeast, while he pushes column into
the southwest. Reports from another
source says Price already has force seven
thousand strong in Barr County, Missouri
A heavy Federal force is concentrating
at Brownsville, between Little Rock and

At shout the time Crooks infantry was

occupied the summit Of the heights west of

were made before the enemy were OBLIGED
to leave.
As soon as Crooks infantry got in line
to advance on the main front E brigade Of
Averilps cavalry was sfnt round to cut of
the retreat, when the enemy skedaddled in
great haste. Very soon after this the reb-
els could be seen dashing out through the
main street Of the town, taking the road to
Strasburg.

FREMONT's:WTTHDRAWAL.

--... DOaION1 Sept -.
a letter from General Fremont, with
drawing his name as a candidate for the
Presidency, is published to-1ay.
He says the union of the Republican
party has become paramount necessity.
The policy of the Democratic party signi-
fes either separation or a re-establishment
with slavery. The Chicago platform Is
separation. McClellan's letter Of accept
snce is re-establishment with slavery. The
Republican candidate, on the contrary, is
pied ed to the re-establishment of the I'm
ion without slavery, and however hesitating
his policy may be, the pressure of his party
will, we may hope, force him TO it. Be-
tween these issues l think no man Of the
Liberal party can remain in doubt. be-
lieve 1 am consistent with my anteeedents
in withdrawing, not to aid in the triumph
of Mr.. Lincoln, but to do my part towards
preventing the election Of Democratic
candidate. Gen. Fremont thinks Lincoln s
Administration has been POLITICALLY, mill
tarilY and financially a failure, and that its
necessary continuance is cause Of regre'
for the country. In concluding he says
United, the Republican party Is reasonably
sure Of success; divided, the result is at
least doubtful. Gen. Fremont gives his
reasons more fully in another letter pub
| lished to-day.

eENERA1 cocnRAN,s ADDRESS.

NEW oRK, sept. zz'
General John Cochran published an
address to the War Democrats Of the
United States, withdrawing his name from
the Cleveland ticket.
In the course of his address he says;
While therefore, General Mcclellan
resolves upon an impossible Union, as it
was through war, the Chicago Conven-
tion resolved upon on impossible Union,
as it should be through peace.
The Baltimore platform he says, how
ever Objectionable, does not fail to refer
the re-establishment of constitutional lib
erty and the restoration of the Union, to
the arbitraments of arms, in which alone
safety is to be found. He would prefer to
have the people brought to vote on the
Cleveland platform, but before the prin-
ciples embraced in that platform is or
country, and he cannot stand in a position
which, by dividing, would hazard the
success of those who agree that the Union
cannot be restored without the uninter-
rupted continuation of the war.
