From tho Chaplain OF tho Regiment.
9i...... WASHINGTON CITY, July 26. 1861.
The telegraph before this reaches you, no
doubt, will fash before saddened people
the list of our killed and wounded, in the
never to be forgotten conflict of last Sun
day.
Every one feels that bad generalship was
displayed on our side, and an improper day
chosen to begin battle, which, from the
first, has been sustained by the religious
sentiment of the world, at the same time all
praise the heroism of the volunteers engaged
in the corfict. .... l.... ...
Yesterday the regiment left its quarters at
the Assembly Rooms, and encamped about
half mile east of the Capitol, just beyond
the spot where it was previous to our de-
parture for Alexandria.
A despatch came from st. Paul to day
stating that my friend, DR.. Hand, had been
appointed Assistant Surgeon in the place
of LIE Boutillier, deceased. 1t is true that
DR.. LIE Boutillier has not been seen since
the battle, but we have no authentic infor.
formation of his decease, and we still hope
that we may see him alive. The last saw
of him was just as we entered on the battle
field, when he told me to go and tell Dr..
Stewart to bring the filters and hospital
assistants.
DR.. Stewart is also missing, but we all
feel that be is in the old church, near the
battle ground, attending to our wounded,
although he may be prisoner, as the enemy
have taken possession Of that portion of the
country.

the hospital not been so full that l was
obliged to hurry on with some wounded l

The only loss your correspondent sus-
tanned was his entire wardrobe, down to
tooth brush, comb and brush, amounting to
about 5000. All that can wish is that
my clothes may be given to some Southern
Chaplain, the sermons in the trunk perused
by the captors. .,-'.'
Javan Irvine, of st. Paul, arrived at our
camp on last Thursday evening, and should.
erng musket went forth to battle on Sun
day morning, and after fighting vaianty
succeeded in capturing a gentleman by the
name of Lieut.. Col. Boone, of Mississippi,
who is prisoner of war nov in the old
Capitol. l.r .... ......a. ......
Ever since yesterday we have been in
tents, and | notice that all of the St. Paul
men are busy writing to their friends. 1
have no doubt that extracts from their lets
tiers would be interesting to your readers
and that their friends would furnish them
if requested. ....u.a. t...s
