PLANTER. Ftgst on t bc Ha pf aa anne ck. Tb? Richmond Whig, of jthe'?tb^ that about 3 or .4 o'clock; on Saturday, evening, s force ol Yankees, a portiuu of Meade's anny variuualy estimated at from lo.OOO to 20.000 advanced on Hays' Louisiana and ll -kc's North Carolina brigadva, who were picketing on the north aide of the Rappahuiimck, near Kelly's Ford. The enemy being in over whelming turee, tba two brigades were cut oil' and overpowered, and most of.them taken prixonera. A small -number were killed and wounded. General Haya, we understand, saved some GUU men, wu ile a stoat! number -of the Nui tb Caril na brigade escaped. We also 1.>81 four pieces of artillery, but saved tb horses and equipment*. Uar tose io prwonera ia estimated by some at UDO or l,Ut)?. and by others at> much larger number. The numerical strength of the two brigades will scarcely exceed 3,000 men. We learn, that (jen. Hays himself waa captured at uue time, hut aubwqnently escaped.. Gen. Hoke ia on detached duty iu North Carolina aird bia brigade waa commanded bj thc Senior Co't'nel, whose name wa-have been unable to learn. Although encountering an overwhelm tug fjrce,'our men are represented to have fought moat gallantly, and piled .thu ground with Large numbers of killed and wounded Yankees! The foregoing ar* substantially the facts a? correctly as we could ascertain them from offi cers and men who left the army yesterday. We may ..add that nu o ciaf information baa jet been received that we have leafed in re lation to the affair, and nothing through the Associated Pre-<S. Wo hope that lurther to iurination will show tb? aft .ir to be less seri ous lhan at preseut reported. It i? believed that the greater portion of Meade a army has croped the Rappuhanuock, and is pr-babiy advancing, in which event a general engagement of the two armies may occur at any time so-ii. Gf our own uiuve uscuta it iu?y not yet bo advisable to apeak Suffice ii to say, Gen. Lee ia aa well prepared now fur a . fight as w hera be lately chived Meade tu Bristow Station, ami that be will ii;-lil bim, if it is nectary to ti ?ht, in a po s i t >u ul bia own choosing. It wdl.be seen from ttie uewa irotn the Herald -chat Monde has been picparinjr for au immediate advance. In ?pc:.king of tbi? engagcrneut, the Whig of the lOih informa UR that few or no addi tional particulars have been received from the fight uti the K.wppaliamiock Saturday. Ail tuat wc have bceu aide to ascertain ia mainly corroborative ol the ?tatemen t iu our last I-SUB. The fight is represented to have brien of a uio't desperate character, and our men did moat fearfnl ex?cution among the Yankee?. Aa we expected thc last report, nutdifies, to some extent, the extent of our lose, aud make rt considerably leaa.airioue than at first repor ted. A SOUTH CAROUXI NEGRO IS Naw Your,. -A chaplain who, having heeu left behind with the w unded at Gettysburg, was earri'd to New York, says that but a ie rr 0f the ne groes captured at Gettysburg took the oath of allegiance to the Yankees. Most of them gieadi'v refused to work or fight for Lincoln. Ur. relaten the following conversatiou between Gen. Morris, U. S. A. and Titus, a ne^ro fruin South Carolina : Morris.-Well, Titus, are "you willing to enlist and tight fur liberty under the Stars and Stripe* ? Titun- Nu^ air ; you nny shoot me fuatj and dun I won't tight gainst my Govt-ruinent. Murria-Weil, Titus, they are going to put you ali in the army if you go South? Titus-Dat'a inst what I want, sir. Morris-DonYyou want a good suit of c.othes,? Titus-Not from your Government, air; ny Government ir aule to give, me clothes. Morrl*-Oh, pahaw! your Government's ''played out"; your money ia worthless.
