eral members Of Congress saw hundreds Of
our wounded soldiers lying exposed 10 the
fields, in miserable shanties, in filthy smacks
and schooners, while company of our
troops guarded most vigorously against in
trusion every acre Of the White House es-
tate, though it belongs to the rebel Gener-
al Lee. To these members OF Congress this
seemed 10 be monstrous cruelty 10 our
troops, who are dying at that place by doz-
ems for the want of good hospital accommo-
dalions there. The government has seized
the buildings of loyal men in the vicinity of
Washington for such purposes, but the
Commanding General on the peninsula re-
fuses 10 touch General Lees house, though
the necessity is great. Two members Of
Congress attempted to cross field on this
estate to visit steamer tied up to the
banks Of the Pamunkey, the said steamer
containing wounded soldiers from their dis
tricts, but they were ordered back by the
guard-ihey could not cross ono Of Gen.
