But aboutthe merit of the two its here ex- bibited (the artist and bis wife) there can be no question, and I am sure they would baye at- tracted the thoughtfol attention to which they are justly entitled if they had been placed ditfer- ently. The ‘‘Head-waters of the Susquehannab,’’ by Mignot, and one or two other works, complete the pictorial decoration of the room, unless an exhibition of the sinews of war, in the shape of bank-bills engraved by an American Bank Note Company, belongs thereto. A noble statue of America, by E J. Kuntze, occupies a desirable corner, and attracts much attention. The sewing machines are flanked by the inev- table clock, 18 ugly as ever, and as good. Why ts it that the old form of Yankeediscovery in this branch of manufacture is so pertinacicusly ad- hered to? It cannot be for its elegance for no- thing can be more unsbapely, and hardly for its cheapness, for many of the cases are elaborate in their hideousness, and far more costly than their neighbers, in the French horological department. T hope the makers are in London, to take a lesson from the many specimens of bandsome and cheap clock ware whieo they will find in almost every court of the building. A collection of flat linen-draper’s boxes, labeled “cotton prints,” *delaines,,’ ‘hose,’ &c., repre- sents the courageous attempt of an American mannfacturer to ‘d the British lion in bis dem. 1 bave not seen the animal since the occurrence, but as the contents of the boxes are yet bidden from view, he has, I presume, merely sniffed them from afar. itis a pity there is no case for these articles, so that they might be seen. At all events it ls a good thing to know that competition in fancy goods bas commenced in earnest, and that there are manufacturers ia America who do not hesitate to measure thelr strength with thowe in Europe. By far the largest part of the section is setapart for the display of musical instruments. Messrs Steinway & Sons occupy the entire centre of the apartment, exhibiting two grand and two square pianos. They are certainly amongat the finest in- struments in the exbibition—if not, asis more than suspected, the finest. The folly of sending !anos from America to Europe nearly excited the compete of cisatlantic makers, and until the cases were opened they were disposed to be very merry indeed. Since here they have parted with a good deal of their hilarity—for the Steinway pianos are in fact the musical excitement of the exbibi- tion. Both in quantity and quality of tone. in touch, in excellence of workmanship, and in ele- gance of appearance, they are superior to any _ I have yet heard in other courts; and this ‘saying a great deal, for London, Paris, Viewns, and ail the great centres of this important manu- facture are fully represented {on the exbibition. The judges seem to be of the same opinion, for nothing can exceed their interest in these instru- ments; and as for the artists, they—the independ. ent ones, at leas:—play on them from morning till night. Hence it happens that the American Court is one of the pleasantest nooks in the building, and the only pisce where one is sure to bear a little fiae playing. One of its most frequent visitors is Alfred Jaell, who will be remembered in America, ilarrisonburg the advanced guard discovered the enemy posted in the woods to the left and front, apparent'y in force Artillery was sent to the front and commenced shelling the enemy with- out eliciting any reply Jarkson, having at last been forced to make a stand with his whole armv, bad e mpletely masked his position in the woods and ravines Skirmishers and cavalry were sent forward, and the whole column came rapidly up, and the line of battle, extending nearly two miles, was promptly formed, under direction of Col. Albert, chief of 6 Fremont’s staff Before it was completed, Gen Stabl witb the Garibaldi Guards became engaged with the enemy on the extreme right, and forces bim to fall back At balf-past 12 o'clock a general advance was ordered, and the whole line moved forward. Gen. Milroy had the centre; Gen. Schenck the right; and Gen. Stahl, with all his brigade except the Garibald! Guards. the front. Gen. Blenker’s, Gen. Boblen’s, ard Col. Steinweiskb!’s brigades composed the reserves. ‘The line moved down the slopes of three hills into the valley and up the opposite ascent, which at the summits were covered with woods. In these woods and in belts of heavy timber beyond, the enemy were pened. Gen. Stabl on the lefe was first engayed. Generals Milroy and Schenck found the enemy scon after, and the battle almost immediately became general Gen. Stahl, after Schriver’s Battery had shelled the rebel position, advanced theSth and 45th New York regiments through the woods into an open field, on the other side of which the enemy’s right wing was concealed In the woods. The Sth reyi- ment advanced gallantly undere heavy fire, but being so long unsupported by the 45th and largely outnumbered, were finally forced to retire. Col Mitchell was seriously wounded, and his whole regiment badly cut up, losing in killed and wounded not less than 300—more than half its strength The enemy’s pursuit was checked by our artil- lery, and Gen. Stabl tinally withdrew his brigade to @ stronger position, repulsing a flank move- ment and bolding lis wing firmly. Gen. Milroy advanced his centre rapidly, the artillery five compeling the enemy to give ground Gen. Schenck, on the right, twice drove back the rebels, who attempted to turn his position Along the whole line our artillery, under Col. Pilson’s direction, was served with great vigor and precision, and the final success was largely due to its effect ‘The enemy suffered most severely. One rebel regiment lost two-thirds of its number in an at- te |. to capture Widrich’s battery, which cut thet to pieces with canister at 50 paces. * ‘The rebel batteries were repeatedly silenced, and forced to abandon their positions Col. Cluseret, with his weak brigade, took and held the centre of the enemy’s position, and his encampment ts there to-night. Our forces were outnumbered at all points, but have occupied the rebel lines, and forced them to retreat The loss is heavy on both sides. The enemy suft-red especially from our artillery. The Gari- bald! Guards lost nearly 200 men, and tae 25th Ohio 60 Our total loss is estimated at from six to eight hundred in kliled, wounded and missing Col. Van Gila, of the De Kalb Regiment; Capt.

Many other officers are either wounded or killed ‘The rebels fought wholly under cover, while iB as al were forced to advance through open fields.

The fiybt was furious for nree hours, and continued until nearly dark Our army sleeps on the field of battle to-night. OFFICIAL REPORT OF GEN. FREMONT. HeavguaRteRs ARMY IN THE Fisip, Cam: near Port Republic, June 8,9 p.m—Hos E M Stanton, Secretary of War: The army left Har- inter 2 at 6 o’elock this (Sunday) morning, snd at half-past § o’clock my advance engayed the rebels about seven miles from that place, near Union Church. The enemy was very advantae- ly posted in the timber. having chosen his own position, forming # smaller circle than our own, ana with his troops formed In masses. It con- sisted undoubtedly bf Jackson’s entire force. The battle began with heavy firing at 11 o'clock, and lasted wit! Sel obstiaacy and violence until 4 o’clock in the afternoon, some skirmishing and artillery firing continuing from that time until dark. Our troops fought cecasionally under the mur- derous fire of greaty superior numbers, the hot- test of the smali-arm fire being on the left wing, which was held by Gen. Stahi’s Srigede, consist- ing of five regiments, The bayonet and canister shot were used freely and with great etfect by our men ‘The loss on both sides ia very yreat—ours bein very beavy among the officers. A full report ol those who distinguished themselves will be made Without partiality. 1 desire to say that both officers and men be- haved with splendid gallantry, and that the ser- vice of the artillery was especially admirable- We are encamped on the field of battle, which may be renewed at any moment. J.C. Fremont, Mrjor Gen] Com’g. by gradual epproaches. “phere could be no more agreeable hews to every person in this city, and, we are sure, to the cit!- sens of the South everywhere, than that of a great battle raging near Richmond. All have confi- dence in the southern tréops—all ®elleve that when taey meet the lnvaders of our soll they will repel them as the firm rock does the wave that beats In vainagainst it. Let them but meet the foe who has marched int» our country te desolate our homes and rob us of our property—nay, to commit the most horrid of outrages—a they will rush upon bim with a bravery and determi- nation that he will be utterly unable to with- stand. They fight for their country’s rights and boner, and {n defense of the women and children of the South. They will defend them, or die There is nothing so disheartening to those gallant sons of the Soath as to be ord to ‘fall back,’? as itis called. They advance with avidity and joy—they retreat with heavy hearts and deep mortification. We trust they are not to be compelled to pursue the retrograde any more, but that, brave patriots as they are, they will be ordered to do what is to them the most agreeable of all things—to mer} and drive back the enemy. If the soldier is grat. ified, the fields near Richmond will be our Mar- athow. If the public feeling is consulted, those teids will bear that same undying na: and if pledges of the government, Vonfederate and States, and the concurrent opisions of high military suthority be maintained, the soldier and the people will sll be gratified, and the foe will be defeated, Richmond saved, and the common cause of the whole South be placed on a new and solid basis To surrender Richmond would entatl conse- ences that we fear to look at. They may be too Tisestrous te contemplate. We have an abiding faith in our people, and believe they would con- tinue faithful to the end; but nevertheless it is too plain that the handing over the metropolis to the enemy would bring upon us embarrassment so great that, rather tuan place the State in such an exigency as that, we should fight before Rich- mond as thou -h all were lost If we were ted. We have the most confident belief that there will be such fighting that we shall trinmph, and that Richmond will be finally saved from the enemy; for if be cannot take ber now, with all his means, be never can. DON’T LIKE ““YANKSE DEVICES”? [From the Richmond Dispatch, May 21.] Our Nortbern brethren are now engaged in the assiduous eadeavor to restore the Union, and set the Stars and Stripes afloat In Richmond, by lay: ing plans to murder and rob all of our people who may wish to prevent the consummation of their dearly cherished project. For severa) days past they have cavorted around the suburbs in sufficient numbers to pillage with impunity, but not to meet any respectable force, on whose ap- ance they would fly like frightened sheep featerday, with characteristic caution, they sent up Professor Lowe in bh famous balloon to ob- serve the motions of the Rebels. The mechine, which was distinctly observed by a large num- ber of spectators in this city, was embellished with two United States flags, and ascended about four miles from the city ia a northeast direction. No doubt the observations of the Yankee rronaut were satistactory, as by three o’clock a fight was reported in progress between the Abolition and Southern forces at the Lead of the Mechanics- ville tarnpike.
