The Battle at Frcdoricksburg

We publish elsewhere in this weeks
Tribune en- abstract of the war new
furnished to the Associated Press, giving
an outline Of the exciting events in aud
around Fredericksburg, since Saturday
up to the hour of going to press with our
paper. The news on that day created
much unsasiness here and elsewhere, for
tao safety of our gallant soldiers. The
repulsc which orr troops suffered in their
attack upon the center of the rebel army
was by some, considered defeat, and by
others as a dangeouus symptom of il.
Tho CHM, Commercial of Monday
gave the substance of Il private, and Ia
ter dispatch, furnished from trustwor-

portant fact that General burnside had
taken, and was in possession of the enc

of course, includes the hill back of the
city. This was accomplished on Satur-
day last.

a pcrilous one, but it was conducted il

any harm. The pontoon bridges wer,
removed as soon as the last man crossed

fond of making talk about the matter.
