the hospital of the ID corps. ct the Wilderness
battle field, and reported that over four hun.

still in hos pi.al there, and that they were en-

1t is said that Lee VIII not recog Dize flag of
truce unless it emanates from Grant, as he
considers him the commander of the army.
The report of a large number of wagons
having been captured by euerr Has turns out
TO be incorrect, arising from the circumstance
that over sixty wagons loaded with supplies
had disappeared, but it was found that they
had gene toward Washington in company
with artillery sent thither. The mistake caused
a good deal of anxiety here, as the supplies
were wanted at the front.
The Sanitary Commission are now doing a
good work among the wounded, although they
were much at fault during the first. The or
ganiZatlon had proved a valuable auxiliary to
the medical department.
An attack was made last evening on our
right flank by the enemy, but Warren's corps
met and drove them back. The attack caused
some interruption to the transportation on the
road, and teams returned to Fredericksburg
on the double quick, but none were captured,
as it was reported.
1t is useless for friends to come to the front
at this time to procure the bodies of those who
bave fallen in battle. The request is denied in
all cases. All are carefully buried, and their
names pleced upon board, 50 that friends
can find them after the army has advanced.
