BOYLSTON, MeosWorthy.iaind Sire. The Great Battle at Manassas. We 4xtract the foliowing from the 'Peters -brg E.cprese, of the 24th instant:. it. will"IIrobably require weeks to learn a1l the particu!irs of that great trial of strength between Northerr and Seouthern arns, which touk jiiace on .Sunday last, near Manassas. So tar. we have heard but a tithe of what will vet be developed, and already much has reached ns of a most p ainfully .interesting character. We had it conver.alien, yesterday, with gentlemen pasing throub trom the Nourhern to the South.-rn Depot, who were in the battle, and from them le.arn mne particnlars not here! fore published. It has been already stated that the " brunt of the ba.ttle" full upon the left wing, com p..sed of some :1,000 men. under the Gen. Johnstou. This was the nuumher brought down by Gen. J. from Winchester, but he was doubtless reinforced after reaching Mfanas~as. If atnpt.on's Legion. of South Carolina I Col. C. F7. Fisher's Sixth North Carolina Regiment, and a Virginia legiment, the nmnhiser of which our iiformnat;t did :ot huo.W, were sent lorward toward Bull luum to cover Ohe forma. tio of fl!.n. .lohnton's line of battle.

F"isher wva; Lille, in fr~ont of his regiment, nnd whi;!leading his men on to the light. The Colinel dismnonted, divested himselfof his watch. sword and coat, and swinging a carbine aeross: his shoulder, called to his meon to fo;w him, whic'h they did with great er.- I thusiasma. This occurret between :3 and 4 o'clock 1.. m., during the critical hour of the hattie', which has been already referred to. The Colonel was truck by a conical musket I ball, just over the left eye. which p assed ' throuih his but at the base of the brown. and went entirely tbhr,;gh the skull, coning cout behind. lie of cour.;c died instantly, antd without pain.

Capt. York of Company 1, encountered one of the enemy within ten step, of him, with rifle drawn,'but the Captain was too qnick fhr his adverary. Befiere the latter could pull tiger, C.ayt.
