YesterJay morning j mnstintereUing cer
emony of marriage took place at the church
of St. James, Piccadilly, The bridegroom
Lieutenant Samuel Wylde Ilardioge, who
is about thirty years of age, was an officer
in the United States Navy, holding the rank
of Lieutenant on board the American war
steamer Connactacu. The lady who is
about the same age as thegallant bridegroom
was the daughter of General Bjyd, of the i
army of the Southern States, who lately ex
pired in prison; haviog been mde prisoner
by the Federals. The lady's career is full
of the most eventful, heroic and romantic
feature. Iler father, Gen. Boyd, who pos
sessed vast estates in the territory of Vir
ginia, early embraced the cause of Southern
independence, and was soon entrusted with
a command, obtaining the rank of General.
II:s daughter, the buds, enthusiastically
embraced the same cause, followed her fath
er to the field, and accompanied him
throughout his campaign with the celebra
ted Stonewall Jackson, and on two occasions
heroically, as a modern Joan of Arc, led on I
the troops to battle; she was, however, in a
skirmish captured and made prisoner, and
conveyed to Washington, whpre sho was
imprisoned. Here she remained thirteen
monthi, when she was exchanged for Gen.
Cochrane, wbo bad been in .vie prisoner by
the Con fed e i at es. On her return to the
South, she went on board the Grayhound,
Confederate steamer, which was captured by
thi Federal steamer Conmctacu, while
ruuning the blockide. Lieut. Hardinge
was sent on board lbe Grayhound as a prize
mas'er, wiih his young heroine as a pris
oner. The result was that they mutually
became enamoured, and escape together
from the ship, and found their way to this
countrv. the bride having succeeded :n
withdrawing her lover from his allgUnce
to the United States flag, and eoli-tod his
eveiDuthies and support for tha Soatb
It tha intention ol Liieat. uarainge, :
with his bride, to leave this country at the
latter end of Stntember. to mo the block
ade and enter the service of the Southern
States. The marriage cortege was compara
tively private, being confined to the brides
maid and two or three lady friend', and the
bridegroom being attended by a number of
American gentlemen connected with the
South. After tha conclusion of the cere
mony, the parties retire t to the Brunsw'ck
llctal; Jermyn street, where the bridegroom
bairesided since his sojourn in this country,-
and partook cf an elegant d'jeuner.

McClellan Meeting at WasMngton City.
An immense meeting of the masses to
ratify the nomination of McC'.ellan, took
place at Washington City, almost within the
shadow of the executive mansiou,on Satur
day the 17th inst., at which great license of
speech was lndu'god and much enthusiasm
prevailed. It is a significant fact that many
soldiers were present and took part in the
demonstration in favor of their late Com
mander Our fellow-townsman Uin. Wh.
II. Wadsworth was presort and addressed
the meeting.
The following is an imperfect sketch of a
portioD of bis remarks:
Mr. Wadsworth, of Kentucky, was then
introduced and said, we are assembled bere
to-night for the purpose of ratifying the
nominations of McClellan and Pendleton.
For the first time in my life I am a Demo
crat. It is idle to talk about peace and war,
the present Administration Is waging war on
so anti-siavery question. Seek by the eloe
tion of tfcCiellao to preserve the Constitu
tion and! the Union at all hazard. The
Democrats listen not to the song of a new
Union, they cry ugive me back the Old Un
ion bought with teu thousand glories." We
are called copperheads! Gentlemeo, ia all
this multitude of people assembled bere to
do honor to a man who would dissolve the
Union? Cries of no, no! Is it so that the
mighty million throughout the North
whose households are draped in mourning
that they-have oo love for the Union? They
call McClellan a copperhead they call that
great statesman Peudleton a copperhead, and
say they want a dissolution cf the Union
Gentlemen, the good sense of the American
people will say no. It has long been the
policy of! the party lt power to eubjugate
the eleven Southern States reduce them,
make then take an abject oath the ne
groes to oppress white men of the South.
Did they not say that Virginia cjuld not
cctne back unless she would consent to the
abolition of slavery. It is not the object of
the Administration to have a Union, but an
anti-slavery boundary. (At this point of
Mr. Wadsworth's speech two soldiers step
ped on each side with a flig in their bands
and stood by him during the remainder of
his speech. This was greeted with loud
and prolonged applause.)
I thank the soldiers here for their presence
to-night. When the people of Virginia
where the bones of Washington are, cease to
be free, then I have no longer any use for
freedom. Gentlemen 1 have not long been
a Democrat. I hare become disgusted with
this Administration and p-irty, an 1 I sought
new company. I take George B. McClel
lan and George II. Pendleton, the platform,
and the letter of acceptance. It means Un
ion forever. I am not one of those who be
lieve subjugation is Union. You never can
have peace with the Southern people until
you turn this Administration out. They
will not lay down their arms as long as this
Administration is iu power. lias not the
present Administration by unconstitutional
acts struck down the meats of personal
liberty, the freedom of speech, freedom ol
the preis, and the writ of habeas corpus. It
is for you to say if you will for four years
longer continue to wage this bloody wai.
(Three cheera were here given for Vatlan
digham) Mr. Wadsworth was followed by several
di itingoished gentlemen, among them the
lion. Thos. B. Florence, who said:
Hon. T. B. Florence, being loudly called
for jame forward aud said it would be im
possible for him to make a speech as he was
so hoarso from speaking that he could not
make himself heard. He said the present
Administration isdisgracad before the civil
iZ3d world' fo,r the tyranny and despotism
which bas characterized their acts. Mc
Clellan says he will exhaust every effort to
give peace to the land and the restoration of
the Union.-lie would abolish these bastiles
and let good citizens go free; ho would
abolish these military commissions who
now send men to prison, and we would have
once more the freedom of speech and the
Ireedom off he press. We must get rid of
this military despotism. Ou Bome other
occasion I will criticise the acts of the
Executive Joker, and hold up for your scorn
the tyranny and despotism which has char
acterized its acts Ttiey are traitors to the
Constitution and the Union. I congratulate
the people of Washington on this vast as
semblage bere to-night, and I trust sincerely
that we may have success in November
uext.
Repobted Captube of a Company of
Recruits. A gentleman who arrived here
this rooming, on the Louisville mail boat,
informs us tha" he learned from several per
sons who took passage at Carrolton, Ky.,
that a company of men raised in C.irroll
County, for the Federal service, had been
captured bv Jesse, lbe men werj equip

it is believed by some that Jesse well under
stood beforehand that he was to gat the com

comprising it wished t. g with him. Car

GENERAL GRANT'S LETTER.
From tbe Richmond Whigi Sep. U
Tbo Yankee Lieutenant General, having
no more flanking to do, and unable to ad
vance, finds soma leisure on his hand, and
has taken to writing letters. We do Dot
discover that ho is any more fortunate in
the use of the pen than of the sword. He
writes no better than he fights, but exhibits
the disregard of truth in composition that
be does of life In battle. The 'rebels'
quoth bs, bava now in their ranks their last
man. The little boys and old men aro
guarding prisoners, guarding railroid bridg
es, and forming a good part of their garrisons
for intrenched positions. Indeed 1 Then
the little boys and old men whipped off your
picked troops from the railroad bridges at
Matoasa and acrofs the Staunton River.
Can a country be conquered in which the
little boys aud old men are better soldiers
than the best troops you can send against
them? Do little boys and old men form
a good part of the garrisons for the intren
ched positiou in front of Petersburg and
Kichmond?aod you with your hordes of vet
erans unable to carry positions so defende l!
We '"have robbed the cradle and the grave"
have wel Do you object to the latter bo
cause you think it is tbo great business of a
soldier to feed aud not rob the grave? If
such be your theory it must ba confessed
your conduct has beeo in admirable harmo
ty with your opinion.
No man since Napoleon has offered such
a banquet to tha grave. Your liaa of march
troru tbe ltapidn to the Weldoo Railroad
is a wide and continuous Golgotha. Your
campaigns have been carnivals of death.
From your attacks ou Fort Donelson, where
your hectacombs of dead outnumbered the
arrison within the fort, to the last of your
loumerable defeats iu front of Petersburg,
you have done nothing but feast the worms
and the vultures and the wild dogs that fol
low in your rear as young chickens follow
the mother that feeds them. 'The grave!1
How your guilty- soul must have quaked
when you wrote the word.
But suppose our little boys and oi l men
were (as thy may yet bi) in toe service
you iescriba, what would it prove bat that
you are warnug not with military forces
merely, but. with the people? When Na
poleon undertook to onquest of Spiio, one
of his Marshals said to him wisdy; 'Sir
you will not succaed; you are mkiug war
not against armies, but a nation. Every
one able to lift a musket will bacom j a sol
dier. You can never conquer them! The
words were prophetic. The result only
furnished another illustration of the truth
which all history teaches, that a brave, uni
ted, patient, persistent and determined peo -pie.
epecitUy if they have such numbers ,
such resources and such extent of territory,
as we possess, can be subjugated by no force
that it is practicable to move agaiust them.
This fact was signally attested in the first
contest of our lathers for freedom.
Just as Grant no.v writes the British cona
mauders wrote, and with much better rea
son, to their Government. Prussia, under
Frederick, with its five millions of popula
tion, fighting agiiust tbe mightiest natious
ofaCurope combined, was another illustra
tion. Holland., to ner oeatn struggle witn
Phillip, afforded another. History, ancient
aud modem, aoounds with similar lessons.
People worthy of freedom may lose their
liberties- from tlie perfidy of rulers or lbe
knavery of poliiicions, bit never from the
sword of an invader. When a nation takes
for its watchword 'extermination tfooner
than subjugation;' when for cvtry so!dir
who (alls there is a father or brother or sou
ready to take his place, and burning
to avenge bis death; when "the lit
tlo boys' are made men by the bigness of
the.r souls, and 'the old men' are rejuven
ated by the fire that glows in their bosoms;
when even women are ready to forget tbe
weakness of their sex, aod assume the tasks
and share the hardships and perils of tha
men: against such people numbers are as
nothing; resource are ot no avail; suffering
aud peril.hunger aud cold are without effect:
for it is not these, nor even death they
dread, but tbe success of their adversary;
which to them is an evil so appa'ling that
any thing short of it seems a blessing.
Shallow aod ignorant devoid ol heroic
sentiment and incapable of appreciating the
superhuman and sublime spirit with which
a people may be inspired by it as Grant is,
be may find in the belief that our old men
and boys are in the field, something to di
vert his thoughts from the contemplation of
his own " disgrace as the hugest failure of
the war; but there cau but bj men at the
North in whose soberer minds such a fact
would awaken redactions far other tbau
pleasant or hope. uL

At an early hour Welnesday morning,
General Hampton, W. F. H. Lee's division
(Barringar's and Chamblis's brigades), and
llos3er's and Dearing's brigades of otvalry
and Graham's and McGregor's batteries of
artillery, struck tents and started on his ex
pedition. On reaching Syoamore church,
at eleven o'clock on Thursday night, where
the enemy's forces were known to be en
camped, a halt was made and preparations
made for the attack at daylight a rest of some
two hours being allowed the men and ani
mals. All Decessarv disposition of the troops
having been made, General Kosser assaulted
the left and General Dearing the" right sim
ultaneously and with like resa'.t. The at
tack was a surprise to the enemy, aud their
position was earned with a rush, lbe
charge of oar men St So'.b points is repre
sented to have been faultless; On tha tbe
enemy's right Dbaring'a men swept like an
avalancle over their works, meeting with a
rapid bat irregular and momentary fire of
musketry, whicbonly rerved to Increase
theft ardor and enthusiasm. So sudden and
rapid" was the assault that the Yankees rush
ei fi'om their tents en dishabille, and were
enabled to make comparatively but a feeble
resistance. General Dearing took t'.iirty
five prisoners, five or six teams, and the en
emy's camp. Demoralized and panic-stricken'
the balance of the enemy fled in great
disorder to Sycamore church, where, finding
General Risser in possession of their works
they immediately eorreuuoreu.
Oa their left, at Sycamore Church, the
enemy was much mora strongly fortified.
He held position on a hill, with formidable
barricade in his front. General Rosser de
manded a surrender; but the Yaukeo com
mandant, seemingly conscious of his ability
to hold bis position, returned a positive re
fusal, with the additional remark that he
iuf-nded to fight to the last. Gen. Ro?ser
determined to give him a chance. and order
ed his men to charge. They oboyed the
demand with great cheerfulness and gal
lantry. They reached the barricades, pulled
them to pieces, leaped over and through
them, and reachid the enemy's work in the
face of a heavy fire, which fortunately did
little execution. As soon as Gen. Rosier
reached theft ition,the Yankees scatter
ed in all directions, and fled from the place
in a most precipitate manner. It was here
that the men who fled before Gen. Dearing
were made to surrender. Gen. Rossei took
about two hundred and fifty prisoners and
several valuable teams in addition to tb
enemy's camp. The camps were prolific of
delicacies and provisions. Oranges, lemons,
cigars crackers and good thinjs and useful,
were found in great profusion. aud not a few
of them were secured.
CAFTCRE OF THE CATTLE.
The enemy having been completely de
moralized, it was determined to push at
once alter the cattle. Before General Ros
ser moved off, a note captured in Major Ba
ker's tent, was brought to him, which read
substantially as follows:
I have the honor to report the arrival of
two thousand four hundred and eighty-six
head of cattle. I have this day moved
them from Croggin's Pint, as fie grazing
in this vicinity Is the fioest in the country.
I only.fear it will not hoH out long enough.

New Yobk, September 27.
The Herald's special at Sheridan's head
quarters, the 24ih. says: From tbe defeat at
Winchester Early withdrew his forces to
Fisher's Hill, leaving most of his wounded
of tbe battle of lbe 19th, and those which
had accumulated from the various combats
of Crook's and Averill's in our hands. At
Fisher's Hill he rested his right upou the
Massanutten Mountain, and his left upon
North Mountain, having his front about 3
miles in length, covered by strong natural
and artificial defenses. His right, which
was about one mile in advance of his left,
was considered almost impregnable.
O.i the 2lst a most important position in
front of the center was gaiued by Wright's
corps. Oo the 321 a warm attack was be
gun by a strong demonstration by the en
emy's troops on the enemy's right. About
noon, or a little later, RickettV division of
the 6th Corps advanced anil secured some
important nights in front oi the center. while
Averill's division of cavalry attacked aod
diove the enemy at a gallop from his ad
vanced position on his left one mile back
into his miin works and held him there
while Crooit'a corps, which had been con
cealed during tbe day, was transferred in
rear of Averill's division to the enemy's ex.
treme left.
At 5 P. M., Crook and Averill stcrmed
and carried the works of the enemy. Ttie
C4va!ry leapa l tbe barriers erected by the
enemy, capturing 3 battle-flags, 4 guus, aud
over 100 prisoners; while Crook swept to-
ward the enemy's center, uo o-u wrpi at
tacked, followed by the 19th, while Averlll
swept along the base f the North Moun
tain, outward 7 miles, captured 175 cavalry
horses, 4 caissons, 14 wsgonB.8 ambulances,
ami a number of fugitives. The enemy
having probably learned of the movement
upon his right and rear, had commenced
iflQ.?n tKU ooaition some two" hours before
our attack. His departure was so hasty that
he" was compelled to leave sixteeu guuo
over 1.C00" prisoners in our hands'.
Yesterday morning the pursuit of the en
emy was promptly continued by our cavalry,
and1 he was found in position at Mt. Jack
son, 25 miles south of Fisher's Hill, where
be seems disposed to offer a stubbon resist
ance. Yesterday morning Early's rear was
overtaken near Hawkin's Bridge, by Gen.
Averill with a cavalry division and a brig
ade of Gen. Devin's and driven to the town
of Mt. Jackson, where his entire force was
foand in position. Maj. Laddy, command
ing two battaliocs.was captured with several
privates. Our cavalry pressed the enemy
with great vigilance and success, until he
brought an infantry division, with artillery,
and they held them in check till the arrival
of the 6th Corps, which found them in the
same position this raorn'mg.ofleriog stubborn
resistance.
Gen. Ave'ill was relieved from duty with
his division this morning, and granted leave
of absence for twenty days. This order has
caused a universal feeling of amazement in
this armv. There is a prospect of an en
gagement in the front.
