The KILLED and Wounded.

The interruption Of communications either by mail
or telegraph with Richmond leaves in doubt not
only to many of the features of the recent battles in
Northern Virginia and also near Richmond, but also
as the fate of such Of friends and acquaintance
are known to be engaged. On Sunday we heard a
few personal items but did not make mention OF them
they were so few and already known TO those most
Immediately concerned.
OF persons from this place We learn that Sergeant
Major THOMAS WRIGHT (son of the late Dr.. THos. 81.
WRIGHT,) had been wounded in the head ; that Mr.
THEODORE JAMES, Of JOIN S. JAMES, ESQ had
lost bis right arm, aud that Corporal r. L. REID, q
printer by trade and for time an employee in this
Office, had been killed. These casualties, we have
reason to believe, took place on Thursday. None have
been heard from since, but the lighting resumed
on Friday, and contrary to expectation has been
going since that time, the deepest susper So must
still exist among those who have relatives in the e.
gagomens. Oi course all feel deeply anxious but these
feel an especial measure of anxiety.
Corporal REID, the only one from this place who
so far, is known to have been killed. was young man
OF delicate constitution, and who, when last on urough
this spring worked few days in our office We would
have liked to retain him. needed bis services very
much, but could not. Poor fellow bis troubles are
over now, and he sleeps well. He was, we think a
native CT New jersey, and we question whether be
had a single relative at the South. He was q good
hearted. clover man. popular among bis associates and
we'll liked by all who knew him.

that Lieut.. JOHN REECHER, 33d Regiment, fson of
Hon. ABRAHAM RENCHER, of Pittsboroush,) was
