News from SpOttisylVania.

WASHINGTON, May l0.-A messenger
from Spottisylvauia yesterday morning
states Hancock was compelled TO retire on
Spottisylvania road untirh was joined by
Burnside when he held his ground.
On Sunday morning the battle was renew
ed and we drove tie rebels to Pc river and
en- the 9th the whole army was retreating
and by night had been driven in every di-
rection. This morning We put the artillery
into play aud when our messenger left, he
heard cannonading going on.
1t is believed Lee will make stand on
North Anna river
la the. 3 days operations We captured
1900 prisoners aud lost about l2,OUO killed
wounded and prisoners.
The Star says:
A messenger got 10 last night from the
army who left Spottisylvan!s yesterday yes
terday and came on horseback u Acqula
Creek and then came here on gunboat at
IL o'clock. The fghl was going on at
Spottlsylvania Q. II. We held the place al
that time and Lee gave evidence of being
weakened and falling back.
The messenger had an escort cf 100 cav
airy and as guerrllas were frequently en-
counteret on the way it is not improbable
that many of the escort wore captured.
Our wounded are reported to be $4,000,
most Of whom are at Fredericksburg, and
50 thick that they are lying in the streets,
aud upon the pavements A cavalry patrol
was ordered out, but could not do duty, as
it was difficult to pass between the rows OF
wounded without trampi;ng on them. II
is said there are between 900 and 5000
rebel wounded there also, who were left
upon the field.
