Camp Chickabiddy Chokee, Monday Afternoon, ?The Federal troops have won another splendid victory. Seeing that the rebels were apmnaclnno in orrnnt. fnrr?* at. RAM tV?i? mAm. ing, I issued my directions for a general advance,.an order -which our brave fellows were prompt to carry out. The advance was made in the identical direction as that in which the rebel army were proceeding, and was achieved, I need not saytwith the most complete success. Astonishing to say, the whole of our front line escaped without a hurt, and, with the exception of a few plight wounds and bruises in the rear, I rosily have no casualties worth mention to report A good (leal of our baggage and some few hundred stand of arms we left upon the field for a strategic purpose; and we likewise abandoned a score of field pieces, which were found to impede the rapid movement ul onr troops. My next despatch will probably be dated from Richmond, which I intend to sack at hall past five o'clock precisely on Saturday morning next. [Signed] BUNKUM, Gen. Comd'g. To the Secretary of War, Washington. military execution. The sentence of the Court Martial on Cor poral Geo. U. Burger, Company E. First Regi: mcnt S. C. Artillery, who was found guilty ol an intention to desert and attempting to persuade others to desert with him, was carried into effect on Sullivan's Island Thursday, precisely at 12 M. He was shot at that hour on the open space, about two hundred yards to the East of the Moultrio House, just beyond the Beauregard battery, in full view of the blockading fleet. The execution took place in presence of the unfortunate man's own Regiment, also Col, Keitt's Regiment a portion of Col. Dunovant'* Regiment and the Provost Marshall's Guard, composed of a detachment from the Forty sixth Georgia and the Charleston Batalion. The proceedings were under the control ol tho Provost Marshall, Lieut. Col. Gaillard, and were marked by great solemnity and precision, The prisoner was brought out by the guard, accompanied by the Right Rev. Bishop Lynchi who administered to him the consolations ol religion and offered up a last prayer previous to the execution. Although ho seemed deeply impressed with the awfulness of the scene, as he marched insido the square to the stake, the band playing the dead march, the prisoner's demeanor was perfectly composed and evidenced a calm resignation to his fate. All the balls fired six in number, took effect in his body, and ho fell perfectly insonsible, although apparently alive for about five minutes afterwards. The deceased was a native of Roundout, New York, where his parents now reside. He was but a few months over twenty-one years ol age, and had been engaged previous to the war on several vessels trading between New York and Charleston. He was burryed in the soldier's burying ground on Sullivan's Island From Jackson's Command.?The following extract is from a letter received in Petersburg: Camp njcar Racoon Ford, Va., August 19. ?Two great armies are now separated from each other by the Rapidan only. From present ?ill J.L. ?J 1? appeal auutw we wiii, uru? uiu river anu uiixe the attack in a day or two at most Longstreet is on the right, and I gness we shall cross at Racoon Ford. Gen. J. E. B. Stuart's Adjutant-General was captured Sunday night. The Bridle was taken off the horse of his Aid in an attempt to- captore that individual, and the General escaped himself with the loss of his hat. ' Late and Important from the West. Mobile, August 30.?The Advertiser has a despatch, dated Tupelo, August 29, saying that fourteen prisoners captured at Rienzi, had ar * rived. Three hundred of our guerillas moved * in two parties against the Yankee camp, with 1 the intontion of attacking it on both sides, ^ One party captured the pickets and took the c Yankees completely by surprise, rushiug headr 1 long into their camp, which consisted of five. c regiments of cavalry and eight of infantry. I The other failed in attacking, and our small J force was, therefore, repulsed; but they succeeded in bringing off a number of prisoners.1 * Our loss will not exceed fifteon. The attack Was a reckless one, and the escapo of our force j a miracle. A deserter from Rienzi, who left ? 1 his camp on Monday, estimates the Yankee . force there at 7,000. Great discord prevails f in their camp, which is overran by stolen and t runaway ncgros. j The Chicago Times, of the 25th inst., has been received here. It contains the Message a of President Davis on the re-assembling of tho 4 Confederate Congress. A despatch from Cin- i cinnati, dated tho|24th savs that Gen. Buckner, i with 25,000 men is encamped near Sommcrs^ t Kentucky, and that Gen. Bragg is at Chattanooga with 30,000 more. Gen. Marshall is t . reported at the head of Big Sandy lliver with , 15,000 men. The railroad is in full possession of the rebels. No trains can pass to Nashville, j The draft will be enforced on the 1st of Sep- t tcmbcr. Foreigners who have voted on their first papers, and now claiming exemption from \ draft, are arrested and pressed into service. t Camp, Rappahannock Station, August ' 21.?A cavalry skirmish took place yesterday.. 1 Tho Federals lost three hundred and five pris- 1 oners. Earthworks have been thrown up, and ' bridges constructed, to enable the batteries to cross the river. The first New Jersey regi- c ment was surrounded by the rebels, and half 1 of them captured. j Memphis, August 22.?A guerilla band, s numbering 500, came within ten guiles of tho i city yesterday, and destroyed large quantities a of cotton and the bridges over the Wolf and i Hatchie Rivers. Five new compares were 1 recently raised in West Tennessee. Tt is much j ' feared that bands of guerillas are committing > depredations in the vicinity of Mound City, t p Adair county, Mo. Col. McCullough, of Por- < ter's Guerillas, was sentenced to death as a < ' traitor, and shot; also, fifteen guerillas accused c of breaking their paroles. Gov. Gamble, in a 1 ' speech at St. Louis, declared that guerillas j. were robbers and murderers, and that he would t treat them as such. The Yankee account of ; | I the late fight says that 800 of their men at- j tacked 1700 under Morgan, and were defeated with a loss of 300, including Johnson. The remaining 500 escaped.

Threatened Suppression .of the New ^ c 1 York Herald.?The-New York correspondent 1 of the National (Washington, D. C.,) Republi^ can says: 8 The suppression of the New York Iterald is a good deal talked of. That sheet is out this * morning with the treasonable declaration that 1 this war resulted from the invasion of Southern rights by Abolitionists. This is a wholesale \ and point blank justification of the rebels, and ^ if ia r?allv fliof ?f oIiaiiW Kdva Koon ?v ?T VUXAV* IUA VUdV ?V OMVUIU "M? V MVVU ^ ventured upon within two days after the inag- c nifioent demonstration iu Union Square. t -The opinion gains ground that the Jefferson Davis Cabinet employ secret service money ip subsidising Northern newspapers to distract and delude the Northorn public mind, by eulogies upon Generals from whom the rebels fear nothing, and by assaults tipon everybody who favors an energetic prosecution of the war. Another Account of Hcvftat Exploit*. Knqxville, August 27.?On the 20th Qeo. tlorgan returned to a point near Galatin, with l force cfonly seven hundred, and engaged welve hundred of thp. enemy under General iichard A. Johnson, formerly a lawyer of Palucab, Kentucky. The enemy were routed vith a loss, in killed and wonodedf of ope bunIred and eighty men, and two hundred taken prisoners, among whom are general Jqbnson ind two officers of his staff. The loss in Morgan's command was five cilled and eighteen wounded. The Reaction in New Tqr^.?A gentlenan who has arrived at his home in the 8outh, tftcr a sojourn of about six weeks in New York ?having been taken with a Raptured vessel i n ittompting to run the blockade?says the reictiQn fpr peace is making swift, though silent >rogress. Meetings of secret organizations and parties vere held nightly. One of these parties, said ,0 comprise a very large number of the most nfluential, citizens, have put forth thefollowing emnrkablc propositions for a termination of ,he war: First. A cessation of alt hostilities or a*misice. Second. Each party to pay its own debt. Third. The resignation or ^eppsitipo of' \braham Lincpln, and a new election iq all he States fpf a new President. Fourth. All the rights pf the South tp bo guaranteed by special amendments to the Cpn>titution and a reconstruction of the Unipn. Fifth. Failing in thp above, a General Contention to be held and terms of seperation igrccd upon, with a treaty offensive apd <l?fcqsive. Referring tp the military execution pf two lesertersj the Richmpnd Dispatch says: I'We iopeatho President will take this occasion to ssuc a proclamation offering pardon tp dc~ >crters who will return tp their colors by a tamed day, and distinctly declaring that he vill not interfere fo prevent the ?eath penalty n any case of conviction for the same offence lereafter. We hope, too? that Congress w'R )ass some law enabling him to get rid of unvorthy and incompetent officers. It is .hey who are the really guilty parties in post jases of desertion. It is their criminal neglect >f duty that occasions the entire relaxation of lisciplino which leads to it. If their is no law et one be made." + The Yankees have invented a nepr seeing naclnne. It is represented as being a marvel u its way. Its size and weight are such that t can be carried in the pocket without any inconvenience, and it screws on a tabic in a nanner not unlike that of the pretty old faslioned "sewing bird," which it also resembles in ts "bijou," ornamental appearance. It opperitcs by turning a small crank, using only a leedle, and produces a running stich, very neat tnd even in its proportions, and exactly adapted to running up skirts, hemming, tucking, gathering and many other kinds of work which cannot te done on other sewing machines, and vhich enter largely the elements of family owing. Rebels in Connecticut.?The following >Iacard, according to to the New York Exprets, vas posted about the streets of New Haven on Wednesday night 27th nit: "Let the standard of the Confederate States >e carried beyond the boundaries of the Conederatc States of America, that we may denand from the Federal Government onr rights nd our recognition, and that the traitor Linoin shall kneel to us while we dictate to him erms." Another was as follows: If we are drafted, we shall be treacherous to the Government. Southern independence or Death.** The other: "The Federal army is again defeated! GOOD!
