Killed and wounded in the late battle.

--The Lynchburg Virginian says:

‘ We regret to see that many of our acquaintances in the counties of Frederick, Jefferson and Berkeley, were either killed or wounded in the battle at Bull Run. Our gallant friend, Alex'r. R. Boteler, than whom a more chivalric son of the South does not live, served as a private in the company of his friend and neighbor, Dr. V. M. Butler, and was wounded in the action. Mr. Boteler was one of the first to shoulder his musket when Harper's Ferry was threatened, both in the Brown invasion and at the commencement of the present struggle.

The Captain Avis who is killed was the jailor at Charlestown during John Brown's imprisonment there; and Captain G. W. Chambers, of Harper's Ferry, was the man who shot Aaron D. Stephens. Braver men than both these never drew a sword, and they each rendered service in Mexico.
