Further Particulars of the Battle of the
25fh

NE w YORK, June 70.
A letter to the Herald gives detailed account
of the fight on the 25kh, before Richmond L
says
"wednesday, June 2Jth. was signalized by a
glorious struggle between the Union troops and
the rebels, IN which the former were twice vcto
rious. About 5000 of our men that day encoun.
tered two divisions of the rebel army short dis.
lance beyond Far Oaks, and drove them back a
mile. BY a remarkable blunder we relinquished
all the ground gained as soon as we had obtained
possession OF it. and then, when the error was
sfted and understood, our gallant lads went at it
again, and corrected the mistake and maintained
our position there at night
But little OF our artillery was engaged, and the
casualties are therefore not so numerous as might
be supposed from the duration of the fight.
AS the artillery that was used was mostly ours,
the enemys loss is doubtless considerably heavier
than ours, which will perhaps reach so killed and
less than 300 wounded
The principal part of the fighting was done by
Graven's and Sickles' Brgades, OF Rockers Di-
vision, supported by Bery's and Patterson g
Brgades OF Kearney 5 Division, or Birney's Brig
ade, of Sedgwick's Division, and Palmer Brig
ade, of Couch's Division.
Sickles' Brigade behaved splendidly, as usual.
Among the losses 9th Indlana-James
Sprague Co. G, arm; goth Indiana-B. Slbert,
Co, K, liver Noah n. Tappan and Geo. Drake,
Co, E.; Abram G. Dawson, Co, K.
The Times letter says the estimate of our loss
given in the Geographic report to the associated
press viii be found much below the mark. 1t Is
slight considering the amount of fighting done,
and the result accomplished, but it cannot fall be
low 500, and may be nearer thousand-proba-
bly, 500 or 100

Held 10 the basement of the Church, on
the evening of u April, 1862, Br. {. W.
Schaa. was called to the chair, ard Br.
Jos. Walker appointed Secretary. The
flll5wing preamble a1d resolutions were
referred to a Committee for revision and
publication:
Whereas, at a recent meeting, held at
the Parsonage, the os'ensibie design Of
which was to present Rev. J. ". Hedges
with a testimonial evincive of the high
regard Of the parties concerned, but which
has been construed, By many here and
elswhere, as 40 approval of the course
pursued, By our late pastor, Rev. j. W.
Hedges, on the vital question of the Unity
of this Government, aud in relation 20 the
emineurly wise and patriotic action Of
the East Baltimore Conference at its late
session, be voting in the negative and
whereas, in the presentation address es
II. W Cro;zar, the members Of our church
are By impiiclti9n charged with exhibiting
a spirit of persecution toward Rev. J. ".
Hedges; therefore,
Rcso1ce3, l. That it would have been
cminently gratifying to our membership,
hal Mr.. Hedges pursued the course adopt
cd by the ministry Of the town generally,
VIZ, a bold, unequivocal, and decided ex-
preston of sympathy with aud approval Of
the policy of tue Government, in dealing
with the Rebellion, and an equally bold,
uneqlivocal, aud decided expression Of
hostility towards the enemies Of the Gov
ornment, aud that suspicious affecting the
loyalty Of bro. Hedges, existing il the
minds of our membership, are plaiuly
traceabls to the absence Of such a policy.
, That the explanation given by Rev.
Hedges, Of the vote he cast in opposition
to the patriotic action Of maj j-rity Of the
east Baltimore Conference is weak,
aud unsatisfactory, and is strongly disap-
proved Of by more than nine ten,hs Of our
membership; and We earnestly protest
against the impression sougb; to be made
to the contrary.
s. That the implied charge Of P-:sa-
cu,ion, contained in the presentation
address of II. ". C-o.zar, Is gross
libel upon the character Of our member
ship, aud that, while we have DO apprc-
bensiou of injurious effects upon the
L2wisburg community, (bceause Of the
origin of the implied chargcs,) yet, as
individuals at distance may be falsely
impressed, we therefore soleinnly declare
that the only seeming basis Of the vile
aspersion is found in the generally express
ed opinion, that Rev J ". Hedges was
not equal to the responsibilities Of his
charge, and that, notwithstanding his
lack of suitable qualifications - instrue,
or interest as a Minister of the Gospel,
the entire amount allowed him By the
estimating Committee was promptly and
fully paid.
I. Tha., as some Of the membership
have expressed themselves as being az
greived because Of the mode adopted to
secure their attendance at the aforsaid
meeting, we hereby express our eensure
Of any false or deceptive representations
which mag have been emrloyd to that end
