Van Pelt House, about two miles from the
battle field They were under John S.
Jameson, seth Regiment New York Vol
unteers. The suffering of these soldiers
was very severe ; left without food OF any
kind for two or three days none reaching
them from our lines Notwithstanding the
almost superhuman effort of our Govern
ment, and none was furnished by the
rebels, although proper requisition was
handed in by the surgeon in charge. All
the food that could be procured from the
adjoining farmers was purchased at exor-
bitant rates by DR.. Jameson. Men enough
of our army remained behind to take care
of our wounded, but with the exception
of nine they were all marched away Sun
day morning as prisoners. All tina, could
be effected to relieve the necessities OF
the wounded was promptly done !; our
surgeons aud nurses worked night and
day. Af;er several days of want, sup
plies in limited quantities were brought
first By Dr. Mcfarland, Medical Director,
but afterwards in greater quantities BY
DR.. Coolidge. Medical Inspector, who was
uusparng in his efforts to get off the
wounded as quickly as possible. With few
exceptions, no blankets or clothing were
furnished, although great numbers were
almost IN state OF nudity; fortunately
there was only one day of rain.

THE BATTLE AT MIDDLETOWN.
WASHINGTON Sent Is

An officer, slightly wounded in the bat
tie Yesterday, who arrived here late last
night represents that the fight took place
three OF four miles west of Middletown,
Frederick county, at the foot Of the first
mountain, Z, ing west. The enemy was
strongly posted, but our men with the most
determined courage drove them up the
mountain through strip of woods, corn
fields and open ground. The re bells made
,casional stands behind walls and fences,
but we're driven thence to the top OF the
mountain and over into the valley. When
it being night our troops were called from
further pursuit Not one of our men
faltered. This point Of contest was main
tanned by our troops of the center. Two
Colenels among the rebels slain were
found on the field this a. m.
The battle was fought principally with
infantry on our part, it being primactic-
able to bring artillery into full play. Glib
bons, however, with much toll succeeded
in getting battery upon the mountain to
the right of the infantry and did good exc
cution.
A captured rebel Lieutenant said it was
their intention to mass all their forces to-
day. Hatch is represented as having been
wounded in the leg.

The Washington Star says, at 8 10 day
news of an engagement at Burnsidc's pc.
,sition had not yet been received. He
was then in undispuied possession of the
advantageous crest of the mountain from
which he drove the enemy the night be-
fore. The firing that commenced AT day
break to-day was an attack OF the enemy
on Franklin's corps, On the road to Har-
per's Ferry. No direct communication
was had with that corps at O'Clock this
morning. The telegraph operator at
Point of Rocks reports that Franklin was
heavily engaged this morning, some miles
in front of him, 1.-THE operator9. The
division or army corps that yesterday
morning occupied Hagerstown was not in
yesterdays action, though it has lilly re-
traced its STEPS in order to be in the fight
to day. Neither Sumners army corps or
COUGHS division were in action yesterday,
though both are doubtless supporting
Franklin to-day, as they were in position
to do 50 yesterday evening. The army
corps Of Fitz John Porter passed through
Frederick to-day at a. IN, and were to
have arrived on the battle field at noon
Rebels in the fight say Beauregard ex-
pected to join them to day with an army
corps 10000 strong We have no idea
that any such expectation of theirs can be
realized Bunslde's position, wqn from
the enemy in yesterdays battle, commands
the road from Haserstown to the position
where Franklin is fighting, we believe, to.
day hence its great Importance. Tc
