KS NEW YORK. Oct. "a. p
The Herald's Washington correspondent Of
the 22d says Our losses on the 10th are in
the vicinity OF 5000 killed and missing. We
have captured, including the wounded, 1000
prisoners and so guns. The total loss Of the
enemy will be near 10000. Gen. Gustav alone
receipts Tor As guns, making 81 captured by
his division during the last two weeks. n q
II prisoners are to be believed, Longstreet
was not present at this fight. Early, under
the supposition that the 9th corps and the
Commanding General were absent, thought he
would make q dash and recover q portion Of
his lost reputation.
Another correspondent says that in the re-
treat of the rebels Devin's little brigade kept
swooping down upon their rear, gobbling up
officers and men by scores. 1t was worse than
the first Bull Run stampede. DRYERS and
cannoniers dismounted and broke for the
woods as fast as possible, leaving their trains
in our hands. fs--4
The following are the principal captures
made by Devins' little brigade :-22 guns, 30
army wagons, 30 ambulances, 143 mules, III
horses, two stands of colors and q guidon.
He followed the rebels to Fish Hid, drove
them out there, capturing another wagon
train, and there bivouacked for the night.
Early next morning pursuit was resumed by
PowelPs cavalry He captured fourteen
pIeces Of artillery in the woods at Woodstock
The column halted for rest and soon returned
towards Strasburg, picking up many prisoners.

Pleasanton closed yesterdays battle by cap

This morning our line was formed five miles

Skirmishing continued several hours, when

ensued. The rebels rapidly fell back and
formed new line mile and half from the

commenced, our infantry in the mean while
slowly advancing. The fighting was kept up
Tor thirty miles from this point, the enemy
gradually falling back. Gen. Pleasanton then
came in on our left, and q general charge fol-
lowed, resulting in the total rout Of the rebels.
