PRESENT CONDITION OF THE FORT.
A Bloody sabre Charge.

During the recent raid of Fitzpatrick
round Atlanta, gallant charge was made
which is thus described:
BLOODY SABRE CHARGE BY AnNTER.
While the various regiments were being
maneuvercd into position to meet the on
slaught of the rebels, who were sweeping
down upon them, the men had time to COM
prehend the danger that surrounded them
rebels to the right of them, rebels to the
Ian of thaTsa--ahals in tho -aa- nf tl.>-->
rebels in the front of them-surrounded
there was no salvation but to cut their way
out. Visions of Libby Prison and starv-
alton fitted across their vision, and they
saw that the deadly conflict could not be
avoided. Placing himself at the head of
his brigade, the gallant and fearless Minty
drew his sabre, and his voice rang out clear
and loud, Attention, column-forward,
trot, regulate by the center regiment
-gallop-march p and away the
brigade went with yell that echoed away
across the valleys.
The ground from which the start was
made, and over which they charged, was a
plantation of about two square miles,
thickly strewn with patches of woods, deep
water cuts, fences, bitches and morasses,-
At the word, away went the bold drag soons,
at the height of their speed. Fences were
umped, bitches were no impairment
The rattle of the sabres mingled with that
of the mess-kettles and frying pans, that
iingled at the sides of the pack mule
brigade, which were madly pusEsl forward
by the frightened darkies who straddled
them, charging for their lives, and yell
ing like devils, Minty and his troopers en-
countered the rebels behind a hastily
erected barricade of rails. Passing their
rowels deep into their horses fanks, and
raising their sabers aloft on, on, on, nearer
and nearer to the rebels they plunged
The .terror-stricken enemy could not with
stand the thunderous wave of men and
horses that threatened to engulf them
They broke and run, just as Minty and his
troopers were urging their horses for the
decisive blow. In an instant all was con-
fusion. The yells of the horsemen were
drowned completely in the clashing Of
steel and the groans of the dying. On
pressed Minty in pursuit, his mems sabers
striking right and left and cutting down
every thing in their path. The rebel horse
men were seen to reel and pitch headlong
to the earth, while their frightened steeds
rushed pell-mell over their bodies. Many
of the rebels defended themselsed with al
most superhuman strength, yet it was all
in vain. The charge of Federal steel was
irresistible. The heads and limbs Of some
of the rebels were actually severed from
the bodies-the head Of the rider falling on
one side of the horse, the lfeless trunk up
on the Other.

MORNING LEADER.
MONDAY MORNING, SEPT 5.

Northern COpperhead Traitors tn cor
respOudence with the Foreign enc
mics Of our Government.
The notorious w, s. Lindsay, NJ. P, the
champion of the rebel causein England,
who stated in one of his parliamentary re-
marked that it was necessary for the future
safety of the British Empire that ou1
government should be destroyed and the
country divided and weakened, recently
made a speech to his constituents at Sun
derland, in which he dweit at some length
on our affairs.
In one passage of his speech, he showed
very plainly the way some of our copper
head politicians are striving to weaken the
position of our government abroad He
says;
u am glad to find that there is through
out the Northern and Western States, a
feeling arising that this war is in vain for
the object it has in view; that thoughtful
men are beginning to think and speak open
ly about this. Various meetings are being
held at present throughout the Northern
States, and will read resolution which
was passed last month in Ohio, wherea very
large meeting was held. The words are
these "That in the further prosecution of
the war, by whomsoever conducted, or
from whatsoever object in view, we behold
nothing but a fruitless waste of life and
treasure, accumulated debt, overwhelming
taxation, and national ruin to both sec
tions"
ain sending to me that resolutions "a mem
Der of the Federal Congress writes to Inc
that meetings are beir G held through the
West and adjoining States for securing
peace and separation, and he asks me to
make known these meetings in this coun-
try, and adds;-"There must be a Wes-
tern as well as Southern COnfederscv,
Tor the party who advocates this cause
grows stronger and stronger every day"
1 am glad to see that feeling arising in the
Southern States, and the feeling is increas-
ing in the West. A very distinguished
statesman, member of the Senate, writing
TO friend of mine-a statesman who oc-
cupies a very high position in Europe, and
was a Minister of the United States Cabi-
net.-writes: awe are tumbling into
pieces fast, and unless Europe steps in and
saves what is left we shall go headlong to
destruction" These words are too true,
and do hope that their statesmen will see
it in time, and use their best exertions to
secure peace. 1t is perfectly true that
there are still certain number of gentle
men who believe that the Union can be
restored
The name of the " member of the Fed
eral Congress is probably George Il.
PendletOn, the Copperhead candidate for
Vice President. The sentiment that there
must be a Western as well as Southern
Confederacy" is the sentiment of Mr.,
Vallandigham, whose views have been re-
peatedly echoed by Mr.. PendletOn, as his
speeches and votes will show. It would be
perfectly in keeping with Mr.. Pendleton':
past course to correspond with the enemies
of our government in Europe. And yet
such man is a candidate for one of tht
highest offices in the gift of the American
people,

sHERIDAN,S COPELAND.

NEW YORK, Sept. 4.
The Herald's correspondent with Sher-
idan, dating Sept. 1st, says of Wednes-
days fight near Martinsburg; that we at
tackled the enemy's outposts to make him
show his hand, which he did, much to our
satisfaction. We then put our trains in
motion, and deployed in line of battle,
opening from high grounds four pieces of
artillery, which planted their shells with
much precision among the rebels. The
enemy expecting an engagement, opened
with two sections of artillery, but with
little purpose. Heavy skirmishing ensued
the enemy pushing forward heavy col
umns, &C. our forces gradually giving
ground,
They made several efforts to flank us, but
failed each time. Our forces then fell back,
or rather, drew the rebels on some three
miles from Martinsburg, towards Homes
vile and Falling Waters, when there was
a lull. This falling back Twas in accord
ance with General Sheridan's orders; and
why, is not for me to tell, and thus inform
the enemy.

FROM cBAss4.s- ARMY.

NEW YORK, Sept. 4.
The Herald's City Point article, dated
the 29th of August, says: Our troops on
the Weldon Railroad have been con-
stantly strengthening their position until
an opinion of military authority says that
it is now impregnable to the assault of any
force that the rebels can bring against it.
Small gsrrisons have been posted on the
left bank of the James river to guard
against perambulating rebel batteries,
who fred on our transports. The Rich
mond Examiner has dispatch from No
bile, of the Both ult., which says there are
six Union vessels off Dog River Bar.
The Petersburg Express says q large
body of Yankee cavalry moved, on the
3Oth ult, around towards the rebel right
in the direction of the Weldon road, prob
ably on another raid.
General Maury says the non-eombatants
of Mobile give him more concern than all
else. They will not leave the city because,
as they say, they have nowhere to 60, and
General Maury appeals to the planters to

NEW YORK, Sept. 8.
The Herald's Falling Waters CORES
pondence, dated August 3Ist, SAYS:
For two days past Averill has been DEM
onstrating against the enemy, feinting
with view of facilitating the execution
OF plans and carrying out the orders of
Sheridan.
To-day we attacked the enemy on three
different roads for the purpose of making
him develope his strength.
On the Charlestown and Girardstovn
Fo@ds thSrs was nothing but light skirmish-
ing, while on the Winchester pike there
was all that we had hoped for and desired.
On this road, early in the morning, -,o at
tackled the enemy's outposts and drove his
pickets in upon their reserve and towards
Darksville.
In the afternoon we made another attack
on the same line, when the rebels placed a
division of infantry into line and advanced,
no doubt to ascertain the strength of the
party so persistently annoying them.
Between one and two o'clock the army
had reached the outskirts of Martinsburg.
AT this time we opened fire from two sec
tiOns Of Withers' battery Soon after the
enemy returned the fire from four guns on
an eminence somewhat on the right of
Martinsburg from the rebel position.
AT this time the rebel line of infantry
pressed our right and center, where were
deployed portion of Col. Schoonmaker's
Brigade. On our left where was stationed
Colonel POwelps Brigade there was not
such heavy pressure.
Shells from the rebel and Union guns
passed over the town without striking any
Of the houses.
