STATEMENT OF A LADY.
From Our Special Correspondent
FORTRESS MONROE,


twenty. -four persons taken prisoners at the Bull
Run battle, aud including eleven surgeons Of the
Federal army, who. rather than iorsake their
dead and dying friends Oh that eventful day, SUI.
frrsd themselves 10 fall intO tho hands Of the
enemy, when they might have fed; and ons lady,
Mrs. j. A. Curtiss of Albion, Orleans Co., N. T.,
who also was made prisoner about the sane
time, and who had some interesting adventures
among tho rebels. Their Dames are as follows:

They all agree in representing that the treat
msot they received from the Rebels was all that
could be desired, that every attention was paid
to our wounded that could be given under tue
circumstance, and they poiotedly contradict tho
representations that barbarities were committed
an or meD. The dead ON tho battle field were
| all buried, though hot as soon or ss deep ss
could baye been wished. The wounded as We'll
as tbe prisoners were all taken to RiehmoDd; tho
frst are doing well, and the latter are properly
cared for The gentlemen with whom have
! c,nyefsed, feeling bound oy the terms OF their
parole, are guarded in giving information. The
Connecticut prisouers refused 10 sign the parole.
The number Of the Rebel army On the day oi
the battle is varlously estimated, varying IRON
| so. .OCO ~ 100000. Richmond 10 being fortIhed,
but the works now arc inconsiderablr. The
number Of troops in the city is estimated fr"m
600 ~ $4,000. Arrivals from the South occur
daily and the idea Of marching on Washington
ia constantly encouraged. Men are being drafted
TO ill the ranks. There is an apparent plenty
of ,,entb,Ge but metals, and men aud uficer'
are animated With the belief that their cause IL
about 30 be- achieved.
Communication is constantly kept up between
Richmond and the North pretty nearly as usual
b, wuy Of Baltimore, and the military authorities
profess 10 be- well informed Of our inoyements.
When the news of tho burning Of Hampton
was received, srcat indignation was INDUCED IN
toward tae Yankees. 1t was difficult 10 brlieve
that Il was the act Of Magruder, and it Is prob
able that an inquiry Will be made INTO tho act.
Powder and other necessary articles arc re-
ceiscd in quantities through Kentucky. Large
bodies Of negroes are engaged in building bat
terics at Manassas and elsewhere, aud IN some
instances prisoners have been put to work.
Much is said about taking Newport News, but
t.ey say that they can do without Fortress Mon.
roc for the present. The body OF Col. Cameron
was properly buried, and AN informed tnai if
properly asked for It might have been obtained.
For the following list of our men in the hos
ptss at Richmond, 1 am indebted ~ Surgeons
PougDes OF New-York. Stewart OF Minnesota, and
| Lewis Of Wisconsin,. In addition ~ TINS let
there arc at least 600 others prisoners IN the
