O; The rkillcu,' however, many are miss.
ing, and every day some one appears who
had been captured, or wandered away, or
bas recovered from wounds. OF the wouu-
ded, many viii recover for effective ser
vice, while others are crippled for life, or
will die from their wounds.
From published accounts in Southern
papers, i, is clear that they lost double
our number in killed aud wounded, but

position, compact, with superior numbers
and fresh troops for every movement, ye,
they were fairly driven from poiu. to poin,
By their superiors in fighting valor, and
had our force been properly handed, aud
subsequent knoxledge been available in
season, cur arms would have been com
Pletely successful, and the back bore Of
RebelIioD broken.
By latest accounts, it seems that the
dead ca 10th sides are buried after
fashion. Col Camer1n's remains, it is
stated, are identified. ard proper re-
quest" for them may secure them. Oar
late State Treasurer, Henry S Nagrsw,
and Arnold Harris, who went for Gamer
Gus body, are still retained as prisoners,
with C0nsressman Ely, Col Corcoran, aud
others, butseveralof Of our men have escaped.
~The reported death of the son Of
Jacob Barntar', Of Union county, who
enlisted il a New York eginan,, and was
engaged under FIRE at Bulls Run, is incor
rect, as bis father has letter from him, da-
ted 24ih u,t, when be was well.
Mt SO Lieut. Asa Park, Of Montrose
the brigh;-eycd, laughing boy we knew
few short years ago. He fell at Bulls
Run, charging at the head Of bis men a
Binghamton company upon a masked
ba.'ery-balis entering his throat and
heart, aud he died instantly.
John Hancock, Esq, late Of Athens,
Bradford Co, (who once sung 4, a concert
in LsWi>b1rg) was killed, " bile serving
with Wisconsin company, in the same
action. .,.t - Lts
And thus, looking over the lie, Of the
lost, are our eyes ixed and our hearts pain
Cd to see among the dead those Of our
name, and friends and companions Of
youthful days. But they fell boldly stri-
wing for the right.
