lye OF 1he 2ad inst. learns the following ad-

tive OF the 23d inst, learns the following adj
ditonal concerning it
Six families arrived here yesterday from
the immediate neighborhood of Carthage,
Missouri. They are confident that the Sc
ce$sionists lost fifteen hundred men in that
battle. They say it took from Friday till the
next Thursday night to bury the dead and
some of the men are now here engaged in the
burial
About six hundred were found on the
original battlefield, and the rest scattered
along the whole line Ct retreat, especially in
the timber through which Siegel made his
final escape.
THIS statement differs materially from Col.
SiegeIs official report, but it must be remem-
bercd that he has not been over the field
since the fight.
A large number of people have left Jasper
c.unty since the battle, the Union men CON-
ing to Kansas and the traitors going to Ar
kansas"

WHAT GIN. BEAUREGAED MIGHT HAVE
DoNE.-Of Beauregard plans the CORES
pondent Of the Philadelphia Inquirer says
From the hints dropped by several prison
ers, and troul the disposition OF Beauregards
forces. it seems to have been part Of his
plan on SUNDAY to have Johnston come down
with part Of his column as tar as Bulls Run
Mountfn-and with another part down the
turnpike from Winchester to AldIe and
then, while Beauregard was engaging Nc
Dowcll's whole army at Bulls Run, Johntson
to make a lorccd march on the igh- flank OF
Mcdowell by way Of Fairfax, Vienna, Balls
Cross Roads, and then fall upon his rear
from Fairlax and CcntrrviiIe.
Between these two fires Beauregard hop
cd to annihilate Mcdowell, ard then to
march on Washington. It has not yet trans
pired what 1t was that prevented JOHNSON
from fulfilling his part Of the programme.-
Had he done so, the rebels would have been
in Washington to-day, and our army would
have been cut to pieces. If it IS owing to
Gen. Pattersons manGuvTes that johnson
did not eject what Beauregard intended him
to do-what honors should not be paid to
that officer. ii

Bounty LANDS FOR SoLDrKRs.-It is
understood that il is the intention Of Presi-
dent Lincoln to recommend to Congress the
granting Of 100 acres Of land to every sol
der who ,ervcs during the present civil war.
This is not only just determination, but it
is exceedingly polite. Men will more freely
impeTl their lives, when they know that the
Government has made some provision for
their families, or dependent relatives In all
former wars the American soldier, though he
served but fourteen days, has received his
land warrant, aud certainly in this war
more menacirg to our independence as a ma

have equal rewards with those who served

One Of the most remarkable incidents Of
the late battle is related Of private Of tac
28th regiment New York volunteers. He had
been wounded in the groin, and was hobbln2
off the field, when he was pursued and over
taken by three rebels. As the foremost one
came up he laid bis hand heavily upon his
shoulder The soldier stumbled forward, and
as he fell he drew his bayonet-the only
weapon he had-from its scabbard with
which he run the rebel through the body,
and, at the same time seized upon his cap
tors revolver, drew it from the belt aud shot
the other Two. He then made good his e,-
