Yesterday Gen. Lee sent flag Of truce to
Gen. Burnside asking him to detail men to
bury his dead in front of Gen. Summers
grand division. This was done. The
wounded with the exception Of those whom
the euemy obtained have all been brought to
this side and are being sent to Washington.
Our entire army is now encamped on the
same ground which they previously occupied.
Our army has been considerably reinforced
since the battle.
1t is the opinion OF military men that even
if we had succeeded in taking the first ridge
of the rebel works, the opportunity for
slaughter by the rebels would have been far
greater than previously.
The Times correspondent gives the follow
ing as the position OF the rebels which our
forces at Fredericksburgh were expected to
storm and take.
There is large plateau Of third OIL
mile which the storming party will have to
cross. In doing 50, they will be exposed to
fire, first of the enemY's sharpshO0ters posi-.
ed behind a st0newall running at the base Of
the ridge. Of double row Of rifle
pits on the rise of the crest,
and the heavy batteries behind strong field
works that stud tie top Of the hill, Of a
powerful infantry il-ce row lying concealed
behind these, Of = Vlunging fire from the
batteries on the lower range Of double emf
lading fire from the cannon 70 left Of them.
SebastOp1l was not half 50 strong.
The following incident IS related BY the
Times correspondent. About half pat one
o'clvcl, the first line of battle in Gen. Gibbons
divlson was relieved by the second, when the
brigade commanded BY Col Root, charged
over the open field beyond the railroad down
into the edge Of tie woods occupying the
hreastworks and capturing 200 pris0nersbe-
longing to the 3jth y. e. and ;. c. resi-
ment.
The Times account of the battle shows
that Gen. Hllker's grand division was kept
on this side Of the river I'll! O'Clock, when
u was ordered across. Gen. Hooker remark
iug t. a friend that be was g1inE % Tut
ta!- thingthr1ugh, Ia half an hour ,v0lleys o.
mUsketry announced that Hooker with his
reserve were engaged. They had however
hardly go family engaged before tie sun

FALMOUTH. ' A., Dec Il.
Yesterday morning when daylight appear
ed che enemy Oeemed astOnished that our
army had crossed the river We returned
without losing single man or a gun.
The pickets OF the c5ntendjug armies be-
ing separated by only few rds rendered
it necessary that every thing on our front
should be conducted with caution.
About nine O'Clock. yesterday morning,
the enemy advanced their skirmishers along
their entire line and by noon had established
their pickets near the bank Of the river. We
had a large number Of dead on what was
regarded as neutral ground and as soon as it
was known our forces had evacuated the
city, the soldiers OF the enemy commenced
robbing the lleless bodies.
On Monday the piekets of both armies
fronting the lett wing mutually agreed upon
an armistic among themselves and freely in
teImingled with each other exchanging their
dead friends and comrads who lay on neutral
ground. During this time General Of our
army rode by and put an end to these pro-
ceedings. The result was that both parties
Immediately commenced firing when nine OF
our men were killed.
Alter the General had left the friendly de-
monstration of our pickets were renewed.
and tutternut and blue uniforms freely
mingled.
About this tina, Gen. Fran kiln dispatched
a flag Of truce which the enemy Immediately
and the exchange Of dead bodies
vas resumed and continued until completed.
