but badly wounded; he and five Of his

are less than one-fourth that fell upon
the field of battle on last Saturday,
near Richmond. The rebels then at

artillery, ammunition, &C., &c. On
Sunday there was some fighting, which
the papers say was terrible, and that
they gained all they lost on Saturday,
but this is not so. 1 have my informa-

fought terribly hard, and I very much

was attacked again by the rebels, but
we have not received any news of the
result, as the wires-are down from head

Exchange of Prisoners.

We alluded briefly on yesterday to
the fact that negotiations were pending
between the Confederate and Federal
Governments for general exchange of
prisoners. The commissioner is Major
General D. Harvey Hill, who is now
engaged in preparing the lists of ex-
change-it having been agreed that
each government should report the
number and names of all prisoners in
durance, on parole and wounded, and
perform the exchange by giving man
for man, and in relation to officers. in
such ratio as the usages of war have
established as just. The movement was
initiated by the Federal Government,
whose special messenger reached Rich
mond a few days ago, by flag Of truce
via City Point and Petersburg. Some
weeks must elapse before the exchange
is consummated. .-Rio1gaomd Enquirer,
