In I'll the rebel accounts of the affair
Friday they make out that the severest
fighting was done in the attack on Ksu.z,
while our account represent the heaviest
par. of the engagement to have taken
place after the rout of kausz. The fact
may be that the rebels have been made to
pay very dearly for their victory over
kautz, as they were armed with repeat
ing rifles and it was in this attack the
rebels lost Gen. Gregg aud several other
officers.
The Times correspondent sums up the
affair as follows:
We lost eight guns. As set-of, how
ever, we captured II last Thursday. We
slaughtered aud wounded at least LOCO
of the enemy in front Of the infantry, ex.
elusive OF what injury Kautz inflicted on
them, besides taking 1000 prisoners.
Most of the enemy's wounded were left
on the field.
Considering their losses in men they
bought their guns dearly. although we
must give them the credit of killing, dis
abling and capturing, at an outside esti
mate, 400 men in addition to the guns.
| Looking at the matter from all point
of view VIC claim victory, decisive vic
tory, and can afford to lose the guns
but the rebels cannot afford to lose tn
large numbers they lost to-day in captur
ing them. They signally failed in thei
object of flanking US aud will scarcely b
likely TO resume the experiment, at leas
for some time. They also suffered a
severely as we in the loss of artiller
horseo. One of their batteries was draw
off the field by hand.

Reconno noissance.
New York, Dot. IL.

The Hersld's 9th corps correspondent
Of the 9th says this morning the division
under Gen. Wilcox, holding the centre Of
our line, made an advance with the inten-
tion of advancing our position and recon.
noitering that of the enemy. The forces
making the reconnaissance consisted of
the brigades OF Hartsuff and that lately
commanded by Col Steen. An advance
was made of over mile and half, under
slight skirmishing, when thu 9Th Mass,
commanded by Col Mclaughlin, Was fred
upon by the enemy.
S1me fifteen Of our men were lost from
the reconnoitering party. 1t was accom-
panied by Lieut.. Towner, with bis battery
of the 4th Mass, but no opportunity was
offered for using the pieces.
The deduction from the recent recon.
Nuisance is that the enemy are not in
forca this side of Petersburg or the Apo
matox, and that any effort on our part
will force them to new new line upon
the latter mentioned river.
This is the amount of the information
which l gather this morning.

Rebel papers announce the capture Of
kautx's Adjutant. How nearly the Gen.
ersl came to sharing ihe>same fate is told
BY the correspondent of the Times as fol-.
lows:
sWhen kautz was returning in the
rear Of his column with few Of bis staff
officers and orderiies, he came upon an
entire rebel regiment, at least one mile
from the road where the attack com.
menced. The regiment had some of his
men prisoners. In sight of their General
the men called out to him to dash back,
which he did and escaped by : by path.
His Adjutant General, Capt. Nash. was
with him at the time, but is now missing.

0 H. BRowNIsa FOR LlsooLN.-The
Copperhead Press Of the country have
been boasting Of the accession Of o. H.
Browning Of Quincy to their ranks. We
supposed that such was the case, and re-
gretted it most deeply, and we received
the following contradiction of it in the pa
pers with heartfelt pleasure.
Mr.. Browning is man of note and =
man of talent, and the fact that under
ell the circumstances he deems it neces-

rS-It was significant fact, which at

1t was signncant TACT, WHICH at
the time excited remark, that all the
speakers at the Union rally up at the
Junction upon Saturday had formerly
acted and voted with tue Democratic par
ty. Are they any the less Democrats
now ? Not bit of it. Douglas charged
his party to remember that no man could
be Democrat unless he were loyal man.
And when the doubtful and hesitating of
his followers tclegraphed him from Mis-
souri, 10 know his intention and proposed
action,-at the time that the South had
commenced its war upon the Government
and Mr.. Lincoln had shown his determine
alton to put down the rebelion-his an
swer was 81 stand by the Government
and to put down the rebellion" Was he
recreant to,.his principles as Democrat in
this Surely no loyal man will say So
And when under Jackson nullicstion
reared its front in South Carolina and Old
Hickory met the reasonable movement
with an iron Grmness and strangled it in
is incipiency. Clay aud Webster, and the
mass of the Wing party, although bitterly
hostile to Gen. Jackson in a partisan
sense, forgot for the time being party diff
ferences and cheerfully gave IN he crisis
to Gen. Jackson the full measure of their
support. And yet did any Wing or any
sensible or loyal man think that they
thereby were doing violence to their views
and principles as Wings? Democrats have
been opposed 10 National Bank and tariff,
and internal improvement, and yet shall
they therefore be opposed to the Govern
ment and ally themselves with traitors,
when traitors would destroy the Govern
ment ? They have been in favor of State
Rights, but are they bound thereby to
eoncede the right of a State to absove
its Federal relations, aud to disrupt the
Union One would suppose the discus
sion Of this subject would be a work OF
supererogstion, and yet there are those
that are blinded and guled By the clap
trap assumptions of the Copperhead par
ty, and who are ready to brand every man
as renegade from the Democracy who
sees in his duty to his country something
higher AMI nobler than mere party ties.
and is willing to ignore party feelings and
party strife in this hour of national peril
Lifelong Democrats are read out of the
ranks because they will not be false to the
Democracy Of Jackson and Douglas and
assist Southern traitors and their North
ern tools in the work of destroying The
government.
This newborn aud illegitimste Cop
perhcad Democracy, born OF rebellion auC
living only by its eountry's woes an'
perils, would go back to loyal men for it
parentage, and yet will read, or assume t
read out of their party those who are tru
to the teachings and principles of thos
