Oar loss H killed and wounded is comparatively light aen .killed and twenty fife wounded. W 4oq our fighting, had ceased, and as we be lieve?! a handsome victory had been obtained, we suddenly found ou&selves confronting a whole brigade. ' Cot Lane now coolly ordered Lieut. PotsJ of tbie artillery, to bring his pieces into po- sitio3L and reply to the enemy's battery, which was nowehellihg rus heavily. Lieut P. soon began ?Srin into their battery and line, and as be acted bravely and deliberately, he must have donocon- eideribleexeciiion. Col. Lane, with bead cool and eyeaopen, soon discovered the enemy's design uponibim to flank him right and left. With no assignee near, and despairing of getting help, he witllfirew just in time to save his regiment from destruction. . i T conduct of the regiment in this action was ... . 3 . .. . . . cervuniy "yery good, especially so wnen it is re coil cted that jlhis fire was tbe first tr which it had cbeen exposed. Lieut. Col. Lowe was expos ed dlring fhe entire action. He has shown him self lo be a brave man and worthy of his position. Mal i? S. D. Lowe was in the fight, and bravely endeavored -tc do his duty. Oar loss in missing since tho fi-rht is considera ble, occasi one i by the 'exhaustion of our men, who the vfr night had slept in therain, and had been without a supply of food tor twer.ty four hours. Major Ikwe Isft the field with the regiment-, and was .viiin us at naoover ijouri uou?ef since then wecannot account for him, it is hoped he will soon feturn to, the regiment as many have already done.. Oaf' Lane says he is ready to leal his re agaic against tne ioai invaders ot our sunny land. ' , ". Ini,his nht our regiment has discovered the facC-mir sinco known bV those who have fone-ht the Wc anket's,- that they cannot make sweeping C'aargesigaist our line; and that when we charge neir tines, n mat; er now wen supported, thoy cannaC stand; the shock, and seek safelyout of the siguvoi our ueierminea soldiers that more thaa half his troone. wbo. weria raw. in continently ran Jackson, was. advised tore treat; but he faidif he could eret a reinlorceiaeni of fif ty regulars, he would take the enemy's battery opposed to him instead of abandoning hit dwn. o.e sent tor tbe named reinforcement, but, before it erne, be bad alreadv stormed the obnoxious bat tery. . Jackson's health was so much shattered bv this campaign that he was compelled to resign. He accepted a professorship at the Military .Institute, wnere ue continued until tne secession of Vir ginia, in height, he is about six feet, with a weight of about one hundred and eighty. He ia quite as remarkable for bis moral aa he has prov ed himself to be for his fighting qualities- being a periectjy conscientious man, just in all bis ways, and irreproachable in his dealings with his fel low men. it is said no is a fatalist, as Napoleon was, and has no tear that he can. be killed before ma. time comes, tie is as calm .in the midst of a hurricane of bullets as he jvas in the pew of hie church at Lexington, when he was professor of the Institute. He appears to be a man of almost J superhuman endurance. JN either net nor oolfl makes the slightest impression upon biro. He cares nothing lor good quarters and dainty fare; Wrappel in his bianket.tw throws himself down ou the grouud anywhere, &nd sleeps as roundly as though be were in a pilace. He lives as me soidiets live, and endures allthe taiigiie and all the suffering that they endure. His vigilance u something marvellous. He never seem to Sieev, ar.d lets notbiner oass withouthis neraonal ecrutiny. He can neither be ought nor whippe4 when he is wide awake. The rapidity ot bis marches is something portentous. He is beard of by the enemy . at one point, and before they can make up their minds to tollow him he is off At another. H:s men have little baggage, and he moves, as nearly as he can, without encumbrance. He keeps so constantly ia motion thai he never has a sick list, and no need of hospitals. In these habits, and in a will as determined as that of Julias Caesar, are read the Eecret of his great success. His men adore him, because he requires them to do nothi ng which he does not do him self, because be constantly leads tbem to victory, and because they see he is a great soldier.

A friend of this illustrious warrior, whose deeds are how resounding from one end of the Confed erate tales to the other, has enab.ed us to give the foilA.wing;skejch of his life, previously to his acceptance ot a command in the Confederate army. Since that time it has become a part of tbe history tne country. It is ordered, that hereafter when any female shall, by word, gesture or movement, insult or show contempt for any officer or soldier of the United States, the shall be regarded and held lia ble to be treated as a woman of the town plying her avocation Butler's order at New Orleans : Aye 1 drop the treacherous mask I ; throw by The cloak, which veiled thine instincts tell, Stand forth, thou base, incarnate Lie, Stamped with the signet brand of Hell ! At last we view thee as thou art, A Trickster with a Demon's heart. II. j Off with disguisfe U no quarter now To rebel honor I thou would st atnke Hot blushes up tbe anguished brow, And murder Fame and strength alike : Beware 1 ten millon hearts aflame Will burn with hate thou can'st not tame ! III. We know thee now I we know tby Race 1 Thy dreadful Purpose stands revealed, 'Naked, beloreUhe nation's face ! 1 Comrades 1 let Mercy's front bet sealed, While the black Banner courts the Wind, And cursed be he who lags behind I IV. OT.soldiers 1 husbands, brothers, sires ! Think that each stalwart below ye give Shall quench the rage of lustful fires, And bid your glorious women live Pure from a Wrong whose tainted breath Were fouler than the foulest death. O 1 soldiers I lovers, Christians, men I Think that each breeze that fl ati and dies O'er the red field, from mount or glen, Is burdened with a maiden s sighs And each false soul that turns to flee, Consigns his Love t j infamy I VI. Think 1 and'slrike homel the fabled might Of Titans were a feeble power 1 To that with which your arms should smite In the next-awlul baltle-hoiur 1 And deadlier than the bolts of Heaveu bhould flash your Fury's fatal levin !
