most severe that has been known for many years
causing general food. The railroad was damaged to
a considerable exent, and this caused sioppage Of

removal Of wounded soldlers TO White House. Las
evening q train of caIs loaded with the wounded
was away, and there yet remains along the Inc
between three and four hundred. The greater por-
ton of them have lain upon the ground since Satur-
day and Sunday. The lis, of wounded 30 far exceeds
1000. Those that fell into the hands OF the enemy
On Saturday and were abandoned by them on the fol-
lowing day, state that they were treated kindly
The Rebel wounded that fell into orr hands, who
had been taught 70 believe that they would be treat
ed with indignity, are atreeably disappointed, and
upon finding that they are treated with the same
kiudness MS our own men, rejoice that they have
fallen into onr bands.

In ali the duties OF soldier, whether in camp or
on the march, his fidelity and sll won for him the
respect and esteem Of ali who came in contact with

ceived the furious charge Of the flower OF the Rebel
army, flushed with victory over Casey's DIVISION
and without giving an inch, turned back the tide'
