KALEIGH, N, C, SATURDAY MOBNING, JULY 27, 1861. -THE EFFECT OF THE SOUTHERN We stated in oar list paper that one of the effects of our laje great victory would be the ..a j Confederate States by the powers of Europe. Farther reflection confirms us strongly in this opinion. The battle of Manassas will prove to the world that the contest in which the Sooth is engaged, is no mere insurrection orpeity rebellion ; but the effort of a great and determined people to assert their inde pendence and right of self-government, and as snch, it will be recognised by all Europe. The victory achieved by the South is the most signal of modern times. The battle was fought on ground chosen by the Federal Yan kees, and after months of preparation made for U, V general Scott and the ablest officers in I he Federal army. The Yankees have no ex cuse for their utter defeat in "masked bat teries," entrenched camps and buah-whack- fn-m fVirtTT trTnirtriAd in tho Anon Iia1(4 in a rqaara, stand op fight, and by men not numbering in their ranks, half their number of troops. There can be no lying official re port of the Battle sent to Europe for the pur pose of under at ing the power of the South. The battle wan fought in the hearing, and al most the sight of the entire Diplomatic corps. They saw the hying Yankees enter Washing ton accompanied by wagon loads of the dead, inns and wounded. They witnessed the panic with which the inhabitants of the Fed eral Capital were seized, and their despatches to their respective Governments will convey truthful tidiDgs of one of the greatest battles ver fought, and one of the most brilliant vie Tories ever achieved nd thepOwerof the South v . . : :n i . . j a a great, uauuu win ue at uiice rucvguiseu, and her right to declare war, make peace, contract alliances, conclude treaties and do all other acts and things which independent rations may of right do, be fully acknow ledged, . j CAPTAIN. YORK. We are sincerely glad to be able to state, that so far: from, haying been killed, as was appreLended, in the great battle of Sunday, Captain York of the Wake Greys escaped without an other injury than a slight one reoeived from one of our horses, whiob in "the heady current of the fight" came in col lision with jhim. A Yankee having taken a fancy for letting tho Captain's blood, fired at l: :.t . i . i , i mm wim a mussei ana missea mm, wnereupou the gallant York drew his pUtol,,shot his foe dead, and took his musket to send home to his wife as; a trophy, together with a letter informing per of bis safety, and well being. A passenger who was in the battle, passed through here on Wednesday with the letter and musket. In the ' course ef the engagement Captain York's company were so scattered that he could not; manage them as a company, but he sucoeedcd'in collecting some dozen of his men, and with them joined a Louisiana com panv, and Icontinued the fight.

We know that his gallant spirit chafed at the de tention from so glorious a field. this truly M noble son of York." ARRIVAL OF ARMS FROM ENGLAND. New Orleans papers inform us that the Confed erate States war steamer Sumter had arrived at that port with 55,000 Enfield rifle?, together with other accoutrements and a number of rifled can non. Out at sea, the Sumter met an English ves sel with these arms bound for New Orleans. They were transferred to the Sumter and anfely landed in New Orleans. What of the blockade! We published this intelligence; from a Memphis paper several days since, but now it is confirmed. Surety Heaven is smilling propitiously on the Southern cause. We have just thrashed 50,000 Yankees, and captured all their arrae, and now we hear of a Confederate steamer running the blockade with 55,000 Enfield sffes, and a large lot of riflod cannon. 'The. remains of this fallen hero and pa triot were brought to this city on Wednesday morning by a special train from Goldsboro', i.nd were taken Ion to Salisbury under the escort of a detachment from the Twelfth Regiment of Staje Troops, Colonel Pettigrew. During the short time the train stopped at the depot, crowds flocked into the oar con- "taiaing the eoffio, on the ton of which, were placed the f-wotd and hat of the deceased patrio?. Those articles were preserved by the faithful servant of Colonel Fisher, who was near him whac he fell, and who bore him from the , field. In the hat are two holes, one in front and one? in rear, the fatal hall having penetrated the forehead of Col. - Fisher, and passed entirely through his head. The Regiment of Colonel Fisher had barely been landed from the Kail Road oars half an . henr when he met his death from the fifth volley discharged by the enemy. The Regi went was badly cut up, and Lieutenant :' I'olonel Lightfoot. severely wounded; Col. Fisher was the son of the late Hon. Charles Fisher, of Salisbury, who was for many yfars conspicuous in the public service of thi State. On receiving his commission, jUoloael Fisher resigned the presidency of the : North Carolina Rail Road, an office which be had for some years filled in the most credita ble manner. A braver man -than Colonel iisher never lived. He carried bis life in jhis band for the servioe of his country, and i ut 'the hour of need freely offered it upon is altar. The train containing hi3 remains was appropriately draped in mourning, and the flag ffiu the Capitol lowered to half-mast in token . yf respect for the lamented dead. NORTHERN AND SOUTHERN CREDIT. With the loss of "Battles by the North and the utter demoralisation of its Troops with the loss of manufactures, trado and com merce, how is it to raise $400,000,000, or even $100,000,000 What earthly basis of credit canUhe North present jfo a capitalist ? None earthly. Every item which constituted its credit Jias gone, and when its money now on hand is spen', and it is going fast, the North wilf be utterly and irretrievably bank- .- With tic South the case is entirely differ ent. Its material interests are yet unharmed. Id the battle field, its prestige is pre-eminently high, jit has won one of the greatest vic tories on f-eoord, and seoured by it property enough to more than doubly remunerate it for ' its expenditures in the War. With Breadstuffd sufficient to feed a hundred mil lions of people, and with cotton, sugar and tobacoo ih abundance, the South can present to the capitalist a basis of credit which in firmness jpannot be surpassed. , KF'PiisioENT Davis t in bis' speech in Richmond upon hh return from Manassas said that we had captured provisions enough to feed 50;000 men for twelve months. There is no .doubt that in property of all descriptions, we have taken enough to pay the expenses of the . war op to the present time. . ; MANASSAS GAP RAIL ROAD. We little thought when some years ago we voted fori the bill appropriating money to this Road, that it would exercise so powerful an influence on the fortunes of the South. THE TRAITOR CARRINTON, Colonel E. C. Carrington, of Washington City, formerly of Virginia, was one of the prisoners taken in the battle of last Sunday. He returns involuntarily, fn humiliation and shame, to his mother State, which he left in respectability and with .fair prospects.

THE WRECKED PRISONERS. The men taken from the vessel wrecked at Hatteras Inlet, and laden with coffee, were brought to this City on Tuesday and very promptly released by the authorities on the grpand that they were driven on the coast by a stress of weather, and were not belligerents. This decision is in precise conformity with the grounds laid down by Mr. Attorney General Benjamin. t'Ot. McRAE'S REGIMENT. We deeply regret to learn that Col.

On Sunday right, the remark was made in ou hearing that Richmond was epiritloss under the news of the great aud decisive victory at Manassas and seemed but little stirred by appropriate enthu si as in. No observation was ever more mistaken ; it was made on' the surface. Theuutbor of itcould not appreciate that deep, serious, thrilling enthusiasm sweeping thoima'wla mf hearts unable to vent Helf, too solemn tor wild liuzzsa, too thankful to bo ut terable in the eloquence of ordinary words. Wehave witnessed many manifestntions ofpublic sentiment. Never have we witnel such an one as was given in Richmond lat Sunday night on he news of the Waterloo victory a. Manassas. Its thrilling, pulating silence was like a living magnetism. The tremulous tones of deep emotion, the silentgraspof the hand, th faces of men catch ing tin deep and ourning enthusiasm of unuater ed feelings from each other, composed an eloquence to which words would have been a mockery. Shouts would have marred the solemnities of the general joy. It wa-s too profound for ordinary manifestation sacred to the household sacred to the merciful God, who, on the precious and sol emn day of His servic, had been pleased to bless our arms with victory. In how many homes did ' the trembling prajer man's best eloquence of, heart arwe to the Throne of Mercy freighted with solemn thanks, and tearful in.its supplications for the loved one who had shared, perhaps in death, the glories of the victory. To how many hearts do" the tidingsof yesterday appear yet as an unbroken dream ! How strange, while the bright sunshine filled our streets with the quiet glories of the Sabbath, and tha music of the church going bells floated on the untroubled air, that our loved ones,, perhaps so lately parted from us, were standing before the red crashes of the cannon and mingling in the bloody earth quakes of a fWaterloo: - When night fell, was it remarked ;how curious the banks of the clouds were massed around the horizon, with the broken starlight falling at last through their torn and streaming 'drapery ? It was then that the battle had been decided,' and the dark .cloud that had lowered on the borders of our beloved Virginia was broken and scattered in the effulgence of vic tory. Many hearts in our once bright and smiling South will be awakened to sorrow and desolation when it is known what of life and of happiness our victory- has cost us. But let there be a limit to mourning. God knows that we do not say it sellkhl v ; we hav.' our own lovd ones, whoe fates in the battle areyet r.ct known..

I have just been put In possession of a privatw letter, for the trutn 01 tne conwmu pi wnicu x vouch, i ou will see that the days .of oppression and tyranny in this State are drawing to a close. The letter to which I refer is dated "Knob Noster, July 11," and sfStes: I have just concluded to write, in order to contradict some of the falsehoods publisbod i the Republican in regard to the battle of Uartbage and other movement of our'State troeps. The statement that wa lost six hundred men is false. The following, from a doctor who was in the light sJsi j . . ..... "That the brave Stale troops met lue Federals under Col. Seigel's command unexpectedly, at about eight miles north of Carthage, They were 2,500 strong, and , having tne choice oi ground, bad planted their cannon in the most command ing position. Governor Jackson, with about twelve thousand men, of whom only about two thousand were armed, except with shot guns, de termined to give them battle. He had only eight pieces of cannon, which be planted as best be could. Seigel opened the fire on them, which was kept up for eight hours, when our cavalry outflanked them and making a charge, broke their ranks. The Federals then letreatedin soma con fusion, our bovs cutting off about seven hundred of their number, four cannon, and a great num ber of wagons, army snpplies, and horses. A running fight was then kepi up for eight miles to Carthage, our boys cutting tbem down along tne entire route, i i When at Carthage, Col. Seigel made a stand, but was routed, leaving 18 wagons of provisions, camp. eauippage. mules, and one wi gon load o: cakes, pies, &c, intended for a feast for the Fede rals after cleaning out our ooys a gooa joae. Dot badly spoilt. Our brave Sta'e troops still charged them three miles Bouth of Carthage, when they were checked by night overtaking them. They then rested for refreshments, which it may be imagined they wanted badly. On the following morning, Ben. JSlcCulloch joined tbem Wltn 6,000 Rangers, who followed the Federals on jPaturuay, the result of which bad not been -ascertained up to the time our messenger left; but as General Price, with 3,000 men, was advancing on them rom the Hoo'.hi of Carthago, they certainly cap tured the whole command. After our boya had cut off the wing of the ene my with their foar cannon, the best they had, tbey were compelled to cut them down b fore they would give up the guns. The cavalry, in which onr Johnson boys played a conspicuous part charged on them, and in many cases they -ni!d not surrender until they were cut (Awn. The boys bad to rid up and cut their heads ifl They got all their principal officers, on5 of whom re fused to surrender, shooting two of our mon after being surrounded. They of course riddled him. Our State forces were divided, but ere all to gether now, numbering not less than 20,000. McCulloch had 3,600 infantry about 30 miles back in Arkansas, who doubtless have entered the State before now. Our arms, fifty tons in all, are of the very best description. ' McCulloch brought four flfiy pounders in with him, and said be could knck Swinefield to pieces in ten shots. I have no doubt Springfield is taken before now. Up to Sunday only ten of onr buys had died. Forty six of our men were w 'unded and killed. We will come out all right yet. St. Louis must and 9hall be relieved, if she cannot re lieve herself. Our watchword is forward. The word retreat has be;n blotted out from our tac tit?. . It is likewise currently reported on our streets, from various sources, that Springfield has actual ly ben taken by McCulloch, and that Seigd i now a prisoner. Some rumors are afloat of a train having beeWrun off the Pacific irack last evening. Bti this as it mav. somo d"ad bodies of soldiers were5 brousbt into the arsenal. -Some of them were in the Zouave uniform. TORKTOWK HOSPITAL j As great diversity of opinion seems to exist in the minds of many of our lady friends relative to the hospital at this place, I write a short mte in order to remove any nncert-tinty ,wiU regard to it. ;;-1 C We have four district hospitals. The first or general one is the old Kelson House, to which all the worst cases are sent. . This, is under the management of Dr. Hinea, the Surgeon of the post. The next are the Regimeatal Hospital be longing to each regiment, under the control of its individual surgeon. Hare are sent only those cases which render the men temporarily unfit for duty. . ! v i f : The third is what may be termed the contage ous, whose name is sufficiently explanatory of its character. The fourth is the hospital at Bigler's Mills, about eight miles above this place, under the cars of Dr. Randolph, to which are sent the convales cent patients and those f"ho are suffering from chronic diseases, i :' V I would suggeit that persons" sending delicacies and other things for these different hospitals, should always be particular to enclose in such packages such n"mes of the kinu givers, end the articles presented.

We are able to give the reader to-day an authen tic statement of this oattle. General Beauregard disposed his armyAlong the banks of Bul,l Run, from Ction Mill Ford, tho stream being between the two armies, and our Brigades so arranged as to guard tLe various fords between the two points above namrd. The enemy advanced witbin range at 8 o'clock, P M. opened a havy fire on Gen. Bonbam'scemmand at Mitchell s f ord, and kept it up sometime to de ceive our troops as to the real point of attack. It was soon discovered to be a feint, and the loft wing of our line found to be very heavily pressed. The enemv concentrated on that point bv rapid march est, an overwhelming map of troops of all arms and at 10 o'clock the battle rageo to its height Generals Beauregard and Johnson arrived on scene nearly at the same time and both ex I. i hi ted great personal prowess and couragem the engagement Gen. Beauregard rode up and down the line till his horse was killed ; General Johnston seized a s'andard and ralfied a waering Regiment. Tro-ps were rapidly tnoved from the right, and centre to the relief of the left, and by 3 o'clock 15,00(of our men were there in furious action against ?4,000 of the enemy. At that hour General Kirby cSmith s Brigade arrived, on tne railroad trom Win chester to Manassas Junction, at a point within two miles of Stone Bridge. Seeing the violence of the contest there, this General stopped the car3 ; and dismounting hit men, inarched straight on the enemy, without orders, and with out going to the Junction, thereby saving a five mile march. Gen. Beauregard did not at first re cognize this Brigade and believed it a flank move ment of the- enemy, till they come near enough for the flag to be distinguished. On their arrival in line, a general charge was made, and the enemy brpke and fled principitately. "When tbo armies reached Centreville, where McDowell had 15,000 fresh raen and heavy guns in position, he made a desperate rally. Rut an other charge of the Confederates broke the new lines, and hi3 disaster became complete. The body of our army pursued to Fairfax, and p lanted our flag on the Court House. The caval ry cut up the enemy sit miles farther to Falls Church, only fuur miies from Arlington. About half the member of the Federal Congies were distant Spectators of the battle. At Centre ville was found a table bounteously spread, sur rounded by empty seats nd twenty oas etsof champagne, where Senator Wilson was in the act of entertaining a large dinner party on our arriv al. He himself narrowly escaped. He got'out of the village in the disguise ot a driver ot a market cart. Among othet curiosities seized there, were a number of bills of fareof dinners acuoweii in tended to give at different points, all in French and elaborate as to the cuisine, in Richmond. Now tor the serious fruits of victory. We have taken 61 pieces of cannon, 20,000 stand of arms, more than 500 wagons laden with stores and munition?, and a quantity of provisions, sta ted at so great a ngure as to be absolutely incredi ble. if We have killod and wounded some 7,000 or 8, 000 of the enemy, and taken nearly 1,000 prison ers while others are constantly brought in from the woods. Among them is Ely, a member of the Federal Congress from New York ; Cols. Corcoran and Wilcox,; with many other prominent persons. Our own loss is 500 killed and 1,500 wounded. No prisoners;.

Tbe ob ject of the visit was to give the com mandaut of Fort Caswell, (Col. Iverson,) official notice of the fact that our port is now in a state of actual blockade.
