WORTH, Col 03d Reg’t Sept. 27, 1802. First—follow ine,” bpurred his horse up to tJie very muzzles of the battery. One of the cannon- * iers ‘7as in the act ot pulling the lanyard of a gun. lliui, he cut down with his sabre. AHOther, at- teiujitiug to take the place ol‘ his comrade, was like\^is2 dispatched, by tlie now bloody steel ot the Colonel, and the rest turned to fly. At this instant one of the retreating Federals halted, took deliberate aim, and shot away a portion oi the V irginian’s ear; while a second sent a bullet through his body. Hardly had the flash of the two muskets disappeared, however, before the Yankees paid the forfeit of their temerity with their lives, one of them being killed by Sergeant- Major Jones, of the First. “Forward, boys, al ways forward, don’t mind me,” cried the wounded Colonel, aud there he fell among the trophies of his prowess. 1 am gUM to say that, though seri ously, and at one time thought to be mortally hurt, th5 gallant soldier is now believed to be out of danger. Brig. Gen. Koger A. Pryor during the d«y had the misfortune to be taken a prisoner, but the corresponding good fortune to effect his escape.. He had started off on toot to call up two or three regiments for reinforcement, and on his re turn found his command moved from the position in which he had left it. Thinking it had gone ahead, he too went on, and on, wondering all the time where his men were, until he suddenly en countered two Yankee soldiers sitting at the foot of a hay rid His uniform being covered by a Mexican poncho, they did not observe that he was not one of their own men, nor was there any mark visible upon his person to indicate that he was an ofticer. They accordingly familiarly in-.- quired how everything was going on in front. He replied very well, and in the conversation which ensued, learned that he was a mile and a hall within the Federal lines. They asked him nu merous (juestions, under some ot which he began to (juake and grow uneasy, fearing his inability, good lawyer though he is, to cope successful ly with a cross-examination of such a dangerous char acter. He accordingly began to look about him to discover some means of escape. There wa.« ap parently none. He observed standing near him, liowever, the two mu.^kets of the men, one of them with a b;iynnet and the latter without The collotiuy had not proceeded much further before one of them, looking at him keenly, asked him to what regiment, brigade and division he belonged, and as Pryor hesitated, aud stammered out his reply, the Yankee sprang to his feet, and exclaimcd“you are a d—d rebel and my pri.soner.'’ In an instant the ien«ral, who is a powerful man and active as a stjuirrel, seized the gun with the bayonet, and before his antagonist could turn, ran him through the body twice. The other now jumped to his feet, apparently as if to e.scape, but he also received from J*ryor a lunge that left him helple.ss on the field. Throwing down the musket, the (ieneral moved rapidly away in the direction from which he came, and after dodging Federal stragglers for an hour or two, had the satisfaction of finally regaining his sornmand. Anxious to know the fate ot the two men wht^m he had summarily disposed of, he sent one of his aids the next day to examine the hospitals in that neighborhood, and ascertaiiv, if possible, whether any men were present wotinded with a bayonet. The aid returned with the information that he had found one so injured. Whereupon Pryor mounted his horse and went in person to see him. The man was asleep when he entered the hospital, but the Surgeon awoke him, and the (Jeneral asked if he recognized him. “Yes, sir, 1 do," was the reply. “You’re the man whostuck me.’’ There were instances of gallantry, too, among the privates. I met a boy of fifteen—a bright eyed handsome little fellow, who had gone into the fight with his father in the 4th Texas liegi- ment. He was in the line just behind the skir mishers, and seeing them fighting, and the men around him doing nothing, he ran forward out of the ranks and joined in the fray. While moving through the woods, jumping from tree to tree, al ways in the advance, he saw a man riding on a fine horse. Running out in the open field beyond, he waved his hand and beckoned to him. The officer, for such he proved to be, rode up as if to examine the lad more closely, and see ing that there were no symptoms of his surren dering or making any valuable verbal communi cation, put spurs to his animal, wheeling around and was about dashing oft. Quick as thought, the boy lrew up his Enfield, anl in a monu'i^t more the man reeled on his horse, rode about Ibrty paces and fell to the ground. The boy instantly wentjbrward, though the enemy were firingdozen.s of muskets at him, seized the animal, took the sword, revolver and haversack of the wounded man, and learned from him that he was a Colonel, in command of the skirmishers.
