TnE TIGHT AT GAINES MILLS. Now onr victorious troops advanced upon the enemy's strongest works,' at. Gaines' Mills, which were defended by three divis ions of the enemy, about 30,000 men,- sap posed to be commanded by McClellan in person. These works" were defended by four batteries of 26 guns, and" being situated on an eminence, and onr men having to advance for. some' distance over an open country, they were exposed to a galling fire from the ene mies batteries, which raked their whole'line. Yet onward pres.'ecTour men, consisting of threa brigades, Pryor's, Wilcox's and Feathr erstone's, -over felled timber, - brushwood, ditches and every other obssole. Qiickly ascending the hill, they stormed the enemy's works with' the bajonet. i . Here were three brigades of ours assailing three divisions of the enemy. The enemy seeing the sratllness of cur force was "endeavoring to outflank us, and had nearly succeeded, when, just at the opportune moment, terrifies volleys of mus ketry are heard to the right, which are re cognized as proceeding from Stonewall Jaok- son's columns, and to the left emerge Hood's Texas brigade, immediately followed by Whitlows and Pender's North Carolina brig ades.' Now the fighting becomes lerrlftcv It is all done on our side with theTmusket and the bayonet. The enemy finding him self pressed on all sides, begins to; fall back rapidly, and about 7 T. M. his retreat became rout. The JDispatch says : " . . f 'Tis now about? P. M., and just as" the rout of the enemy ia complete just as the last volleys are sounding in the enemy's rear, the distant and repid discharges of cannon tell that Jackson has fallen upon the retreating column, broken it, and captured 3,000 prisoners 1 Far in the night, his insatiable troops hang upon tie. enemy, and for mites upon miles are dead, wounded, prisoners, wagons, cannon, &?., scattered inextricable 'con fusion upon the road ! Thus, for.four boors, did our inferior frce, unaided by a ,sivgU piece of rtiUry, with land over thirty thousand uf the enemy, asitd by twenty six pieces' of artillery I In total, we captured many prisoners, i and thirty piecesof artillery up to 6 P. M. Friday, and in the battle of Gkines's Mills, captared 26 field-pieces, 15,000 etnd of arms, 6 stand of colors, three Generals, (Reynolds, Sanders and Kankin.) and over 4,000 prisoners, including dozens of officers of every grade' from Colonel to Lieutenants of the line.. ; j Among pie killed la this engagement we regret to find the name of Col. Bo bert Wheat: He re ceived a mortal wound in the head. - i . TIIE FIGHTING ON SATURDAY, - ' We suppose from the accounts of the Richmond papers that there was no great deal off BghUag on Saturday. Our forces attacked the enemy In their entrenchments on Garnett's farm, but after occu pylng their UrA Vlneof entrenchmenU were or-: deredto fall back. In this engagement Ooli La- SATURDAY NIGHT AND SUNDAYTHE ENEMY IN FULL FLIGHT I About 1 A. M. Sunday morning, our pickets down the Nine Mile Road were fiercely attacked bv the enemy, and a severe and lively fight en dued. The enemy were, easily" driven buck with lost, many psisoners falling into our hands. Ma ny of the Federals threw down' their arms and surrendered voluntarily. Sunday morning about 6 or 7 o'clock, another fierce picket fight occurred. Gen. Griffith's Mississippi, brigado moved down and pursued them past their fortifications, which were found for the most part deserted. It thus became a matter of fact that the enemy were in full flight ? '. -- -i'l ,'. Pursuit was instantly maae, ana several fights ensued. All their camps wagon, commissary, and quartermaster camps, also were totally de stroyed. Immense piles of stores were blazing at the moment of our. visit,' the Mississippians pursuing over the red ashe3 pf the camps and stores. OjUr army is following close at their heel., and many prisoners 'are hourly arriving Loud explosions- were beard during 'the afternoon,, caused by the destruction of tvast quantities of ammunition. Dense columns of smoke darkened the sky. The railroad Merrimac was far in ad vance of our '.men, and was -vigorously shelling the enemy at every turn. They am endeavoring to reach J ernes river, but Are totally cut off there from. 'Their' less must prove fearful. They are Retreating ih good' order, however, but it cannot be long maintained; tney seem totally demoral ized. 1 1 51 . THE VERY LATEST.

V The Montreal Commercial Advertiser contains the following editorial upon the infamous 'order of Butler relative to the ladies of JSew Orleans: ' . We published the infamous order of Oeti. But ler a few dajs ago and repeat it .now, be-jauso it is proved to be autaentic. When it first appeared, it was denounced by the Federal press Las an in-, vention of Beauregrrd's, to Mfire the Southern heart," and long columns of abuse were vented oq the Confederate General for the wickedness of at tributing such an atrocious document to a Union commander. It was truly said that such an order .would virtually giv,e official sanction. and instiga tion to the violation of the women of New Or leans, for no other Interpretation could be placed on the command to treat them as "women of the town plying their avocation." We never had any doubt of the authenticity of the order; it was charactensticaUy Xtorthern in the vileneis of i Is cowardice, its licentiousness, brutality, and utter intamy. We have seen in Washington ladies committed to the common jail for the crime of lifting a handkerchief- to- their lips ; in St. Louis a whole family was imprisoned because a young lady being in the samo house waved her handkerchief to a passing prisoner ; we bave seen. Northern journals boasting that a Federal General threatened with, an oath to quarter a soldier covered with the small pox upon a lady at Nashville who sneered at his troops; we know that the march of Banks' army up the Shenandoah, of McClellan'g un the-Peninsula, and of McDowell's loFroder'icksburg, were accom panied by all the hbrrors of war In the middle affirmed.

Editor Raleigh Register i The Army Commit-? tee of the Young Men's Christian Association, ibf Richmond, have been engaged for .the last twelve months in rendering every assistance; in . their power--to the sick and 'wounded Soldiers of the Confederate States. . Supplies ot all kinds hare been generously, contributed by the citizens of t$e Southern States for this noble and benevoent'ob jecti i Through this means, the Committee: haye been enabled : tb furnish delicaci es : and com forts for the gallant soldiers ih our 'hsjpitais,' and ta cheer their hearts with the, assurance that their sacrifices in the cause of Southern independence were duly appreciated by their friends at home. ln addition to the provision made' forT the I sol diers in pur hospitals, the Committal have estab lished: and sustained for many months-a Soldier Lodge, where every one .temporarily detained in our city may .find comfortable quarters ' and pro visions free of expense. Many - instances' have also occurred,' where soldiers who are discharged Irom service and destitute of funds have been sup plied by the Committee with cloihing and money to pay their traveling expenses.. Tne war-worn ' soldier will ever find a friend in the Chairman of the Committee, Col. Wmi S Munford, who has gratuitously devoted to this cause all of the tinia which can be spared from his arduous public ser vices as the Secretary of the, James Jii ver & Ka nawha Company. ;'.: i: , VV !. In this contec'.ion, we may mention that the Surgeon General of North Carolina, under in structions from the Governor of 'that State, has authorized Col.

Gen. iutler bai only putlxly avow d bis intention to encourage that which other Northern Generals have allowed.- The Federal commanders have improved on Russian and Austrian tyranny and brutality; they wielded only the knout and the stick, scoring the backs of women. Butler is greater in his way that Haiaault ; lie has found a deeper degradation to which woman can be sub- jected than blows ; henceforth among their other boasts the Federals can claim that tney bave com.' mi tied the most infamous outrage of . modern times, and can' point to the commander of the Union troops at New Orleans as the most coward ly, licentiouv and despicable villain that the world has ever wen. Can any one wonder that the Southern troops fight with desperation, and are betrayed into, acts ot vindictive retaliation ? and that the whole pop ulation rises upon them when defeated,, and slays them as they would a pack of wolves. . ' XSOrtnern Virginia nau ien iuw tenaer mercies of the Union Generals and troops, as Spain' felt those of the French Invaders, ancPits revenge was the same. New Orleans will yet take a frightful engeance for its wrongs ; and the North will have bitter cause to. repent the , licentiousness of its hireling soldiers, and the pusillanimous -wickedness of its leaden, i - - : There was no. Union Bentlment in the Crescent City before its occupalTorr; is it likely there isar y now ? Will the people love the Federal Govern ment better, or bate' its troops less because their women are threatened to be given np to the licen tiousness of the scum of Northern cities ? - Is it by such means that the Union and Const! tution are to be restored ? peace is to give place to warr love to hatrei, respect to contempt? , General. Butler's : Order will unite the whole Southern people still; more closely in their deter mination to resist their invaders to the bitter end; it will confirm the; doubting, strengthen the de termined, fill the ranks of the Confederate armies with new soldiers, and arm them with a double strengin. . - - r It has destroj ed at one blow" the whole Federal successes of the campaign, by teaching the people of the Southern States the-true character of their invaders, and what they have to expect from their domination. If in : the coming battles the Con Jederate troops do not treat their opponents as noisome reptiles, which are conquered only when destroyed, they mustibe something more or less than men. ; In the armies at Richmond and Cor inth there are thousands of soldiers who have daughters, wives, sisters, and lovers in New Or leans, liable at any knoment to bo treated as wo men of the town pljing ther avocation. This knowledge will nerve their arms, and doable edge their steel, and should . make them invincible against the Northern; hordes, however' much they may outnumber- them in men and surpass them in material. : i ! - vtr Mb.
