not far from Massaponax creek. Our troops
slept tonight where they fought to-day.
The dead and wounded are being carried
from the field. Among the officers killed
and wounded are the following General
jackson, of the Pennsylvania Reserves,
killed; General Bayard, struck in the
thigh with piece of she'll, afterwards died;
General Vinton, wounded in the side, not
seriously; General Gibbons, wounded in
the hand; General Kimball, wounded in
the thigh; General Caldwell wounded in
two places, not seriously; Colonel Sinclair,
Pennsylvania Reserves, wounded seriously;
Captain Hendrickson, commanding the Sth
New York regiment, wounded Col. Cross,
of the 9th New Hampshire, wounded the
Major and Adjutant of the same regiment
were killed, Muskctry firing ceased about
six o'clock, but the rebels continued throw
ing she'll into the city until eight. The
rebel position was as follows: Longstreet
on their left, holding main works, General
A. p. Hill aud Stonewall jackson in front
of General franklin, Jackson's right rest
ing on the Rappahanuock with Hills forces
acting as reserve. Burnside will renew
the battle at daybreak in the morning. Our
troops are in good spirits.
A dispatch dated the 14th, says there is
no fog to-day. Sun shining bril- ghtly, with
a strong breeze. At daylight this morning
there was heavy fire of artillery and in
fantry in front Of the first line of works
where Generals Sumner and Hooker were
engaged yesterday. Fire stopped an hour
afterwards, and was heard only at intervals,
until now. Some occurred in front Of Gen.
Franklin's division, down the river. Object
of both parties was evidently to feel the
other. During last night and this forenoon
the rebels have considerably extended their
works and strengthened their positions, and
larger bodies of troops are now to be seen
where but few were to be found yesterday.
Our killed yesterday, while charging the
enemy's works, remain where they fell.
When attempting their removal last night,
the rebels opened FIRE with infantry, but
the wounded have all been removed from
the field. All dead obtained now are being
buried. Indications are that no decisive
battle will be fought today, nnless the
rebels should bring on an engagement,
which they will not probably do.

From Grants Department.

The steamer Lake City was burned by
guerillas at Carson Landing, fifteen miles
above the mouth of White river, on the Sth
inst. The boat and cargo were valued at
100000. The next day the naval dis
patch boat, the -Desoto, went to Carson
Landing aud burned forty-two houses.
Most of the baggage belonging to the pas
sengers Of the Lake City was recovered.
Citizens Of that place claim to have done all
they could to prevent the burning of the
boat, and hal sent courier to Helena to
ask protection. Before the arrival Of the
courier, however, the Desoto had accom-.
plished its destruction of the town.
General Hovey's expedition into Missis
sippi has returned to Helena. Results sum
up two Of the enemy killed, 46 wounded,
and 100 taken prisoners. Among them
are several officers. The Federal loss is
four killed 20 wounded, and ten captured.
The Memphis Bulletin of the 18th states
that General Sherman has returned to
Memphis, end is now organizing another
expedition.
The rebel army in Mississippi is said to
be between Canton and Jackson A,
Ficksburg the rebel force is reported to be
1000. Large numbers are sick. General
Grant is still at Oxford. An immediate
advance is not expected.
Two regiments Of Infantry, one company
of cavalry and one section of artillery, at
tackled rebel force at Tuscumhia on Sat.
urday. The rebels, supposed to number
1000, we're surprised aud completely routed.
Their loss in killed and wounded is not
known. The Federals took seventy pris-
oners, captured number Of horses, and
burned rebel baggage. The Federals did
not deem it prudent to pursue. Our loss is
four killed and fourteen wounded.

Missouri Leads the Freedom Move.

The St. Joseph (Mo.) Herald says ::
"The emancipation sentiment developed by
the last election, is not the offspring of =
mistaken philanthropy towards the negro
race. 1t is the acquiescence of an iutelli-
gent people in the existence of political
necessity forced upon them by the enemies
of their country. The people of Missouri
by this act, have made themselves a name
which will adorn the brightest page IN theis
country's history. Missouri IS the first Of
the slave States to declare that slavery is
not worth fighting for; and the future his
torian will record that her emancipation
movement was the beginning of the end of
this fratricidal contest. All honor to the
people who have shown that shareholders
can be patriots.

WAR NE W 8.

The news we give to-day is lively. The ball
has again opened on the Potomac. Fearful fight
ing has been going on during the past week.
Fredericksburg is in ruins, and that neighbor-
hood filled with the dead and dying The latest
the river, and although the result of the battle
was unfavorable to US, yet the confidence in
Burnside is unshaken. tits a mystery to us why
they did not shell Fredericksburg when the
threat was made, for now the rebels are behind
works from which it is almost impossible to
dislodge them.

Miscellaneous Dispatches.
WASHINGTON

WASHINGTON, Dec. l6,
The following, dated Falmouth, S:45 this
morning, is just received: Raining fast;
river rising rapidly; our troops are all on
this side of the river, and pontoons are up
la the House, yesterday, Fessenden, OF
Maine, offered resolution that the Presi-
nent's proclamation of the 22d of Septem
ber is warranted by the Constitution; that
the policy of emancipation, as indicated
therein is well adapted to hasten the resto-
ration of peace, is we'll chosen as war
measure, and is an exercise of power with
a proper regard to rights Of citizens and
the perpetuity of free government. The
motion to lay on the table was disagreed to
SO to so. The resolution was then
adopted-7S to 81.
New YORK, Dec l6.
The papers this morning contain nothing
new from Fredericksburg.
The whole number of killed, wounded,
aud missing in Franklin's grand division is
5932. Our army was engaged Sunday
princi ipally in taking care of the wounded,
and burying such of its dead as could be
recovered from the battlefield. Burnside
has been reinforced by General sigels corps.
He unquestionably has good reasons for
delaying another attack upon the enemy's
lines.
WASHINGTON, Dec Is.
SENATE-Dayis offered resolution that
after the insurrection against the United
States was about broke out, James Buchan-
an, then Precedent, from sympathy with
the conspirators, failed to take proper means
to prevent it; therefore, he should receive
the censure of the Senate. Laid over.
HoUsE.-Kellogg, of Illinois, offered
resolution, which was adopted, instructing
the Committee on Territories to inquire
into the expediency of establishing terri
torial government for that region of country
in which are the Salmon river gold mines.
NEwBERNE, N. c., Dec 10.
The free labor movement, which has been
extensively but quietly organized in Easton
North Carolina, is understood now to be
preparatory to an organization of Govern
ment of State on loyal basis, so that
Moth Carolina may accept President Lin
coins policy of compensated emancipation.

II HAJOR r u SSEL.

By dispatch from Cen Blunt we learn
that the brave and gallant Major Russell
was mortally wounded at the recent battle
in Arkansas. 1t is due to the high merit
and patriotism of this noble young officer,
that he should have more than the brief
notice of a telegraphic report. Of an
ardent and active temperament, filled with
noble zeal for his country, he was one of
the first who spraug 70 arms when he learn
ed that the Nations sacred emblem had
been lowered to the foe over the battlements
of Fort Sumter.
Entering as private, he rose by rapid
strides to the rank of Major in his regi-
ment. Everywhere by act and word in-
spring his men by his own brave and
dsuntless spirit, he led them up to degree
of discipline and heroism seldom witnessed
even amongst the bravest and best. At
Springfield his name was the theme Of
praise and admiration among the brave and
battle-scarred heroes of that memorable
fight. Ever since then his earnest and fiery
spirit has pressed forward to the front Of
many fray, and his clarion voice has rang
the battle cry which his brave soldiers never
failed to follow.
At last he has met his fate! His voice
is hushed in death Another gallant spirit
has gone to fill the throng of the immortal
dead.-LeaU. Times.

THE BATTLE OF FREDERICKSBURG
A Severe Engagement.

On Saturday, the 18th, Gen. Burnside
engaged the rebels, and q fearful struggle
ensued without decisive results to either
army. From the statement that only 40,-
900 troops were engaged on our side, it
would appear that the larger part of our
army had either not crossed the Rapahan-
mock, or was held in reserve. The rebels,
it seems, had the advantage of the ground !;
they held it in the centre, but Gen. Frank
lin drove them back on the left,
The loss on our side in charging batteries,
must have been severe. Gen. Bayard and
General jackson are killed; Generals.
Vinton, Gibbons, Meagher, Kimball and
Caldwall are wounded. We have news up
to eleven o'clock, yesterday morning. At
that time the engagement had not been
renewed. Fredericksburg is on the south
side of the Rapahannock, Opposite Fal-
mouth, and connected with Acquia Greek
and the Potomac, ten miles north, by rail-
road.
It could be easily re.enforced from
Washington, fifty miles distant, and there
was time enough to do it on Saturday, if
necessary. Port Royal is on the same side
Of Rapahannock and below Fredericksburg
(fifteen miles in strai ght line, but about
thirty miles by the river). At Port Royal
we have few of those inevitable Yankee
gunboats, which no army, at completeness,
can afford to do without. Gen. Sigel is
between Warrenton and Culpepper, thirty
miles distant; Manassas is the same dis
tance off, and there is Gen. Slocum and his
division, In brief, if the rebels are in
force, it is easy for our columns to be mass
ed against them. The Massaponax is the
name of small creek following northward
and emptyiog into the Rapahauaock, about
FIVE miles below Fredericksburg. From
these figures our readers can form correct
idea of the situation.
Gen. Banks is at Suffolk, south of James
river, and seventy five miles from Rich
mond. The force now at that place cannot
be less than $4,000,
Fighting is now the order of the day.
That " backbone is what we are after
