GEN. D. HI. HnlL.--Iu the accounts of the battle
between Bragg's and Rosencrans armies, we see
but little mention made of the part taken by Lieut.
Gen. d. H. Hill, because, we suppose, he is new
General in that department. But an officer who
in the battle informs that Gen. Hill surprised
the oldest veterans by his gaantry and daring dur
ing the battle. He kept closeup to the front along
with his line of battle, and exposed to heavy
fire during the time his corps engaged This
conduct delighted the common soldiers and they too
did their best. Gen. Hill escaped unhurt. =
