Tiik South Carolinians " under Gk.n. A. P. IIill.?A correspondent of ilia Columbia Guardian write* from ihe Camp of tbe Pee Dee Artillery, inr Virginia iSince the promotion of Major Mcintosh the battery has been commanded by Capt. Bronaob. It and McGowan's brigade are the only rsp.sesentatives of tho " Old Palmetto " Slate in Gen. .A. P. Ilill's corps, bat they have sharedwith that distinguished chieftain tho hardships and perils, both of the march snd of battle, fioni MeehanitwvilU miK? blood v heights of Gettysburg. The brigade has won for itself, on many hattl fought fielJs^n enviable reputation for courage and gallantry, and its name should be inscribed in characters \>f light upon the fairest page of its country's history, as a part of her jewels of which she may justly he proud. In the late battles it fought with its accustomed olclinncy and firmness? worthy of their foimer leader?the Crave and chivt\Jiic Gregg. It capture ed and secured two pieces of the enemy's artillery, and was highly complipliraented by Maj. Gen. Pender, a soldier of the " Old Roman School,'* who said it had sared the.credit of his division. As be was tiding by the 1st Reg* iment South Carolina Volunteers, whiah was ruling after the battle, the warrior reined up his steed and wared his bat to their colors?a large blue Palmetto dug?in token of respect and admiration. From Adovk.?We have information through a gentleman who left General llrngg's headquarters at an early bt-ur yesterday morning, that a battle was then expected to take pfarmouring the day. The enemy appeared to be in foroe at the Eastern base of the maun* tainsyn Walker couutjrj or rather in a gap, and at four o'clock our furree won I disposed in line of battle in hie from, four miles west of Lefayetto. Our inI (ormant, however, thinks no fight recurred, Rfc he beard i?o cannonading # daring rfi^day. The Yankee force in front of General Br*gg was in till probability only tufficjpnt to hold the gup, and placed thews for that purpose. We are still under the impression that Rosencrsns will give ho light in that ouarter, and that the oolnmn against wbroli ' attention seems to be wholly directed is only a small portion of bis sriny. We hwvo pretty reliable information that a cavalry skirorieb occurred a law miles ahovs Dells* yeslerday, in which General Forres' was tcry slightly wound- " ed. No were reported beyond this. The enemy bsd advanced ftanth * ' below Tunnel Hill, and had burned the eating bouse at Catoosa. The foree of the enemy moting down the State roadie estimated to be three or (bur thousand strong.?
