I escaped without any serious injury. We fought the famous Eebel 6th Missouri Keg t over a small riJge, with only about thirty feet between us. It was the most terrible fight I have ever witnessed: but it weuld have made you proud y see how gallantly the 69lh held their ground.. We fired nearly eighty rminds , of cartridges and the guns became so heated they could scarcely be used. During tho fighting, our boys kept singing " Rally round the flag, boys, rally once again.'' ' Another letter states that fiReen of the brave boys of the 69th werti killed. Among the wounded, the aie names of Allen Grave, son of David Oma and Thomas Hudson, son of Nicholas Hudson; both of this city. The former was wounded twice , but remained on the field flighting until tho closo' of the battle when he was carried off. Young LI urtson, was wounded in the aide; when the ball struck him ho fell, but springing to his feet immediately he siezed hU musket, declaring that he'd "fix some scccsh for that," he, too, like young Grave, fought on unti1 the battle ended. No one of Cj A wan killed. The fight lasted two hours, and, for most of that time it was a hand-to-hand contest . Alexandria, the rebel Mronghold on the Red liver.

The boy s hardly fail to biiug in a few rebt that have been lurking about fr the sake of plunder. Our captured ' officers have all arrived safely except Lieutenant Williams of company D, who was left sick in Richmond. Virginia. The boys seat up some hearty cheers ou the arrival of Colonel Stewart. He swears he never will surrender again. Our new band is getting along finely it could not do otherwise in the hands of so good an instructor as Lieu'enant Mitchell. Every one about Nashville Lave become loyal, if taking the oath is any eveidciice io the case. I am inclined to think they are not quite so tearful of the Yankees a they seemed to be at first. Then, is a family nesr our camp that, on tin capture, of Nashville by our foices, the daughters of which were sent to Virginia, they were so fearful of the Yankees. After exhausting all their means, they were ' obliged, to return. OF late tlcy Lave become quite sociable. They play the piano, nnd sing the "Bonnie Blue Flag," and other Southern songs. Then our boys reply to them whilst they play. 1 think we will convert some cf them into the trne faith soon. General Burnside's prompt mode of doing bu-incss is extremely gratifying to the sol diers. On the reception" of the news of Vallandigham's arrest and seu'ence, every countenance looked brighter ; the only re a gret was, that he was not hung, instead of being sent to Fort Warren. It is to be hoped D.m Vooihees will soon meet with the same fte, and every tutternut" in Indiana. The soldier in the field cannot conceive how so much leniency can be shown to rebels at home. If you cannot ii)f.ns;e them, rend them down here, and 1 will insure them to be loyal men in two moot ha. . They must suppose that the hundreds ot thousands nf moo now in the field, .

We do ftot care what kind of a war it is, so we can uphold the Government and crush out. the infernal principle of secession. vVill traitors at home never 1. am that we are fighting for a great cause, and that our hoarts are in it, and that we never will let op until the last vestige of the " Stars and lt.-r,s cease to wave over any of Uncle Sam's iljininions, and that the old Flag th.t glitters with its galaxy of Stars shall wave in its Mead ? Men who prate about negro equality aie afraid, if they were anything above a brute, they might be on an equally with ihem.

I Thev can't see - you j - - Thev rushed slori- r ous-ly at double quick to the rescue, pressing J o forward a horrid array oi giiuenng s.eei. The enemy were checked and returned to the breastworks just abandoned by How ard's corp's. Batteries were immediately massed on the crest of the bill, pouring io a terrilio fire umil far in the night. General Pleasauton also checked a flying battery of a dozen pieces, drawing up his brigade of cavalry with drawn sabers to protect the guns. He bad them double shotted with canister and swept the enemy's position murderously. In this charge the rebels took from Schurz's division twelve pieces of cannon. The Germans 11 d past Hooker's headquarters in a panic, many members of the s aff, with pistols and sabres vainly en tleavoring to stay their fi ght. What made this re reat most disastrous was the fact that Sickles bad by a brarch ro.id pierced tie enemy's center, penetrated f;r a mile, cut them in twain, and secured t lie Key to victory, when the turning of Howard's posi ' . - . ... tion obliged bira to re'rewt. bringing off 400 rebel prisoners. The artillery combat continued till midnight fiercely. On Sunday, at 5 o'clock in the morning, the rebels could be plainly seen on the plank road about a mile and a half from Hooker's headquarters at Chancellor House. Our line of battle was immediately formed, and in half an hour our advance became engaged. Soon battalion after battalion became engaged, the enemy advancing his infautry in overwhelming numbers and seeming determined to crush ours. Sickles and Siocum's brave men, however, held them in check, inflicting dreadful slaughter upon the m. French's division was sent in on our right fl.ik and soon crushed that portion of the enemy's line, ar d at 8 o'clock in the morning French sent his comjlments to Ho ker, stating that he l ad charged the rebc Is nnd was driving them before him. Five whole rebel duUions were thrown upon S ekles, but he and his gallant solJiors held .he traitors in check, taking during the dav nn aggregate of over 2.000 prisoner. The light was a desperate band to hand . Hi. I. nd ihe carnnc) was perfectly frightful. Officers say hat the dead audi wounded reheis coverru me jrounu ... heaps. The rebels literally threw them selves upon the muzzles of our guns. tared four stands of colors and five. I.n,t,i!r prisoners. ' The engagement lasted from 5:30 to 8:45 ! A. M., when, being out of ammunition, our j forces held their position for an hour at the point of the bayonet, when upon being resupplied they fell buck in good order to ' Chancellor House, where tho contest was' again maintained with ereat havoc to the I enemy and considerable loss to ourselves. The vicinity of Chancellor House was soon the theater of the fight and Ilcoker maintained his headquarters there till 10 o'clock, when it was burned by a rebel shell. In the meantime Hooker had established a new line. Our forces were withdrawn to that front, and at 11:30 musketry firing ceased. The engagement lasted six hours, and was the most teirifio of the war.

Every military precaution was taken to secure our retreat. A continual line of batile wa kept up by retiring infantry. Rifle pits were established, abauis laid, trees felled. and Waterman's R. I. Battery brought up TkT- .-. . tho rear. No enemy was seen until reaoh-! ing U. o. rord. where a few rebel cntalry showed themselves about a mile distant, but were scattered by a few shells.

Porter. 17. S Vids., is President, was arraigned and tried. Clement 1 Vallandigham, a ci izn of the S ate of Ohio, on the fullnwin" charge and specification d chnre, to w.'t: Charge I'ubhcly expressing, in violation of General O.d. r No. :8. from HeaJquar ters Department of the Ohio, sympathy for those in arms against the Government of the Umt-.d States, and declairing disloyal sentiments and opinions, with the object and purpoe oi wpaKenmg itie pjwer ot the Gov ernment, in its en jits to suppress an unlaw ful rebellion.

Conscr ptfoii The special dispatches to the Cincinnati Gazette contain the fol'owing statement of an important modification ol the conscription act, made by the construction put upon it by the Secretary of War Th eub;ec, cf the proper construction iia rsoA on the 1 3th section ol tue Uon- ' . sciiption law is being considered at the War Department. It has been represented to the Secretary, and he is understood to be liev, that if that section is 60 construed as lo mean that the Government must let oil any conscript on the payment of $300, the purpose of the law will be in a great measure drfted, nd ihe conscriptions prova to a large extent a water haul. Sec'y Stanton is undersrood to hold that the law leaves it optional with him to recieve the 8300 or not; that he is not a Federal treasurer, that be gives no honrls.frfl' n" fiiinni ia, Vlwriyror sums oi money wiien paid to his sub ordinate?, and has not time to go into the business of hunting np substitutes. Solicitor Whbing. tho lnw .fBcer of the War Department, is understood to concur in these views, and unlets the President objects it seems therefore certain that the whole clause giving exemptment on the payment of three hundred dollars, will be practcallv ignored. Conscripts will either be left to huct np their own substitutes, at their own price, if" they don't want to go themselves, or a plan will be adopted of callintr ont an inl numoer oi volunteers at the time the draft is ordered, said volunteers to be accepted oniy as suusiitutes lor the dratted men, and to receive therefor the Government bounty of 81U0, and the conscripts commutation of 30O. On this plan volunteers would be permitted to select the conscripts whose places they would take, and it is quite certain that few of them wonld consent to c-o as substitutes for Copperheads. The advantge therefore, which its advocates claim for this plan would be its compelling peace men to b ar their share of the burden of the war, as well as Republicans and War democrats, in any event u is now believea tne resident will insist on the adoption of some rlan by which the law will n.n K turned into a revenue measure instead nf military one, and ly which a man to carry! a raui-kei in some way will l.c produced for every name drawn from the box.

When Solomon declared there ii nothing new under the sun,' he certainly never imagined that Cream would be placed in a hopper and ground out like a grist of corn or wheat in a mill, and good butteb made in the space of two minutes and a half ! Certainly he didn't ; yet we unexpectedly saw just such a churn at the "Gait House in this city, last evening, and at breakfast this morning, we tasted some most excellent butter, the result of 2 minutes grinding then witnessed. This Churn is novel aud very simple in its construction easily taken apart and cleansed, after using it The grinding apparatus is as much like upper and netber millstones as can be, but instead of being placed flat like them, they are fastened in a perpendicular position on the end of the box. They are called ' breakers" one being fastened on solid, whilst the other is keyed on and revolves when turning the crank. Immediately over the breakers" nlanwr tue cream is poured anl it then passes through the breaker, and from tl.etrco into tfae tjoay of the churn where the revolving dash or gatherer is placed. The crank is shifted from the cog that turns the breaker to the one turning the dash, by n pin. , It is the invention of Fowler & Walter of Homer, Iff. T. Messrs. Dunn Jt Emmons, Assignees, have it at the Gait House on exhibition, where it can be seen and its practical operations witnessed. We have seen numerous patent churns, but the "Fowler & Walter Churn' beats them all for speed and efficiency in butter-manufactur ing. The principle on which it operates, is the one long-sought for but never found on til now, and we are sure it will commend itself to every ' fa.rmfr'a wife Wt th lxrw?
