aECEssION BARBARITIEs.
We have already heard of hundreds of in.
stances Of the most unrelenting barbarities
shown towards the Federal troops--indeed, one
ofthe rebel prisoners captured by the New
York seventy.frst regiment, states that they
had positive orders to show no quarter to any
one. A large number of our wounded soldiers
were run through with bayonets as they lay
bleeding on the field Of ofbattle--and particular.
ly was this done to the Fire Zouaves, on whom
they seemed to have a particular spite. We
have heard Of many other instances in which

The charge upon our wounded and flying
men by the enemy's Black Horse cavalry, Capt
Asaph, Of Alexandria-of which Wise has so
often boasted-is an act we'll calculated 10
cover the Southern name with shame and dis
grace forever. As they advanced towards the
Fire Zouaves, they were met with heavy fire
from that gallant band, when they shouted out
to the Zouaves that they had made mistake
that they were shooting their own friends-at
the same time displaying the stars and stripes
A number ofthe Zouaves, thinking mistake
might have been made, started to their relief,
when the flag was thrown down and terrific
sortie made upon them. But their treachery
met with swift and terrible retributon. The
muskets of the Zouaves we're again turned
upon them, and they were fairly cut to pieces,
only six of them being left out of six hundred
INCIDENTS OF THE BATTLE.
The ensign Of the first Rhode Island regi'
ment was shot through the head and killed
during the early part Of the engagement, when
brave young fellow, belonging to the same
regiment, sprang forward seized the ooors and
waved them in the air. A minute later, he too
fell dead to the ground, pierced by bullet.
During the engagement, Gov. sprague, who
was always in the thickest of the fight, had two
horses shot from under him. Each time, as he
fell to the ground, he would coolly take up his
carbine, and bring rebel to the ground,
Col Burnside seemed to bear charmed life
The bullets were constantly whizzing past him
some Of them even passing through his hat
and yet he escaped without scratch.
The Fire Zouaves advanced to the charge
with desfeuiug cheers for the Union, and wsr'

A company Of United States marines, mum.
bering about 30, camc over yesterday morning.
They report the loss in killed, as Ear as they
could learn, Of 40, but many missing. con.
siderable number additional came in yesterday
afternoon. r .....
... THE PROBABLE LOSS.
A United States orderly, who was constantly
galloping over the field, and who had good
opportunities Of knowing, estimates the Federal
loss, in actual battle, at 700 killed, and 1900
wounded. He makes no calculation Of those
who were so cruelty treated after the battle
was really ended. t,..
From what we are able to learn, We think
the secession loss may fairly be stated at
nearly three thousand killed, and five thousand
wounded.
Among the dead are the following m embers
Of company B, second Ohio regiment: VIM.
Poland, Robert McKewen, VIM. Jowet, John
Lowe, Samuel Lorish, and John PEARL Twen.
ty others Of this company are still missing.
Major Hughes, Of the first Ohio regiment,
was wounded by six pound ball, which struck
him in the forehead. He was left at farm.
house near Fairfax Court. House, and is not
expected to live. e..
Captain Stafford, also of the FIRST Ohio, was
killed by charge of the secession cavalry.
Captain Griffin and Orderly Sergeant Me lone,
Of Grif6n's battery, are both still missing, The
battery has been taken.
Surgeon Swift, and Assistant Surgeons GA
Winston and Charles 8. Degrsw, of the eighth
New York regiment, surrendered themselves to
the enemy. A large number of the surgeons Of
other regiments were taken prisoners by the
rebels.
Lieutenant Mex. Wall, of company B, eighth
New York; received wound by the bursting
Of shell. Captain Griffin, Of company E,
same regiment, is supposed to have been taken
prisoner.
1t ia believed that our loss in artillery has
amounted to twenty pieces, being Ricketts,
Grifin's, Carlisles, Arnold's, and the Rhode
Island batteries, excepting one piece.)
