The battle continues with great fury, but we

The n,usketry firing is tremendous, accom-

Inch Of ground is being sharply contested and
nothing can exceed The fsrocity Of the contest.
Heavy fighting is progressing near General
Grants headquarters.
The captured artillery are being brought to

There has been for the past half hOur :
brief lull in the battle. but the indications are
that it will shortly be- renewed with vigor, and
will continue all day. 'a-' 0'Al47'tA' !" ri

very heavy, but IL Is Impossible to forn any
correct estimate Of them. III ''A 49,
The accounts Of our losses vary from $4,000
to $4,000, but owing to the nature Of the DOM
test, which ia mostly in the woods; thousands
may be lying dead'or wounded on tho ground,
OF which no record can be made at present.
As write heavy firing is heard on our, left !,
and 1t is thought that the rebels are trying to
turn our left flank. a.A'q o1 ma r,go Tao
We advance, but hard work is before us. "
