In connection with the groun-nWh yet exciting

They have yielded up their live* in their I
country's defence and their name* will be re- I
corded in Lilierty's story. The glory of their j
death is perhaps even greater, iImmi if they I <
had fallen on the battle field amidst the din 1
and clash of ar'.is. We ate sorry too, to learn i
from our correspondent, that we have unintentionally.
misrepresented the position and 1
part which were oerupied and taken by our |
volunteer* in the great battle of Manassas.? i
We gathered our items froui telegraphic accounts,
of the 7lh Regiment, which in other I
respect* proved to be correct. We know that i
