road, opened 4 deadly fire with grape and canister,
moving swathe through their ranks at every dis,
charge. The enemy continued ~ press forward
dischsrging voey upon volley, which v as returned
by our infantry; but the greatly superior odds
against compelled our men to gradually give Wsy.
The officers and men belonging to Battery II were
badly cut up and most Of their horses being killed
or wounded, the battery was abandoned. Fire was
then opened from the batteries belonging to the ls
New-York Artillery Regiment, stationed in the same
field, a short distance in the rear.
At this time the enemy moved down the railroad
for the purpose of oufsnking us on the right, but
were successfully resisted, our forces having been
re-enforced by Gen. Couch's Division. Our lines
were driven back for nearly mile contrasting every
inch of ground, until being re-enforced the tide of
battle was turned and the enemy were compelled
to fall back, leaving men in possession of the
field, when the terrible conflict ceased with the mp
preaching darkness. Gen. Casey's horse was shot
under him, and the General is reported slightly
wounded. He was able to walk from the field.
COL G. ID. Bailey Of the let Regiment New-York
Artillery, who directed the maneuvering Of biz bat
terry with the utmost coolness and bravery, was
struck in the head by two or three balls almost

Major Van Valkenberg of the same regiment was
also killed. and Adutant VIM. Rumsey was seriously,
il not fatally wounded.
Attic present time it is impossible to give anything
like q correct estimate Of loss in killed and
wounded, but from the number coming under my
own observation, scattered along the road in fields
and house, for distance of about four miles,
should say it could not be less than 1000 Hundreds
Of them are lying ont in the wet fields, many with.
ont even blanket under them. Every house and
barn is filed, as well considerable number of
tents Five cars, containing about 100 wounded
men, were sent TO White House dark and the cars
are Just moving off with another load. Just in ths
locality Gen. Hein,zelman's headquartcs) there are
from 800 to 800 woutded soldiers. The surgeons are
dressing their wounds with all possible Dispatch and
morning will overtake them with their labors but
partially accomplished. The Anderson Zouaves, Of
New-York, who were in the Williamsburg battle
said by many to have fought desperately, aud
with most determined courage. Others fought equally
as well, but with the meager accounts, cannot do
them justice.
Capt. Smith Of Company G, 4,h Maine Regiment
Aid OIL Gen. Berry's staff was killed in the action.
He distinguished himself at the battle Of Williams
burg.
Gen. Heintzelman narrowly escaped, his horse
having been wounded by musket ball.
