The Confederate Losses,

The report of Surg. L. Guild, Medi-
cal Director of the Confederate army
which Gen. Lee approves in his report.
gives the total Confederate loss as 1851
killed. 800 wounded; total, 10,281.
This takes no account of the missing
AS was the practice in the Confederate
army, the wounded only included those
who were so seriously hurt as to be
put out of action for considerable
length of time. Lesser injuries were
not reported. Gen. E. P. Alexander
gives the total strength of Lees army
at 56,444, of which 1853 were killed,
9.277 wounded and 2,S96 missing. MAX
ing a total of 1856. This makes the
Confederate loss somewhat larger than
the official record of our loss. which is
undoubtedly much too low. Gen. A.
Doubleday, in his excellent monograph
on the battle, makes the Union loss
17,197 and the Confederate loss 1903
which is probably as near the truth as
we shall ever get This included 5000
missing on the Union side and 2,753 on
the Confederate side, both of which
figures have a largeness for which we
are hardly prepared in the reports of
captures on both sides.
Gen. Lee in his report claims to have
captured 5000 prisoners, IS pieces of
artillery, 1880 stands of arms and II
colors. Col. S. P. Bates figures out the
loss of the Union army to be 1912
killed. 1851 wounded, making a total
of 11.203. and the Confederate loss
1865 killed, 9,0S1 wounded; total. 10.-
746 In spite of Col. Bates, ii seems
to us that these figures are too nearly
equal. Undoubtedly the Union soldiers
lost considerably more than the Con-
federates. tho the discrepancy was
nothing like what some Confederate
writers report. In some parts of the
battle, like the attack of Jackson on
the Eleventh Corps and the assault on
Marye's flights. the loss of the Union
soldiers must have been much greater
than that of the iCOnfederates, but in
the rest of the fighting the losses were
approximately equal.
The editors of Battles and Leaders
estimate the strength of Lees army as
61,612 and the losses at 1919 killed,
9.106 wounded and 1,70S captured or
missing. making total of 2,463. The

Sd has rarely been surpassed, measured
either by the strength of the lines car
ried or by the casualties suffered in SO
brief a period. In Colston's Division
four brigades lost eight brigade COM
manders, three killed and five disabled.
Three out of six of the division staff
fell In Pender's Brigade of Heth's Di-
vision six out of 10 field officers were
killed Or wounded. Our brigades rare
ly came to the field 1000 strong, and
casualties of 500 to brigade were rare
ly reached even in battles prolonged
over a day. Here, within six hours. five

''The battle of Chickamauga is gen.
orally called the bloodiest of modern
battles The losses given by Livermore
are % per cent in the Federal army
and 25 per cent in the Confederate in
two days fighting. Jackson's three di-
visions had a paper strength of 26. .661,
and their losses were 7,158, about II
per cent. They were, doubtless, over 80
per cent of the force actually engaged.
The losses in the Third and Twelfth
Federal Corps, which composed the
principal part of our opponents, were
less, as they fought behind breastworks
Their strength on paper was 32.171.
Their losses were 4,703, being about Is
per cent of the paper strength and
probably 18 per cent of the actual.
Had Gen. Lee been present on the
left during the Sunday morning attack,
and seen Stuart's energy and efficiency
in handling his reserves, inspiring the
men by his contagious spirit, and in
the cooperation of artillery with the
infantry, he might have rewarded
Stuart on the spot by promoting him
to the now vacant command Of Jack
sons Corps. Ewell, who did succeed
Jackson, was always loved and adj
mired, but he was not always equal to
his opportunities, as we shall see at
Gettysburg. Stuart's qualities were just
what were needed, for he was young.
he was not manned, and he had bold
ness, persistence and magnetism in a
very high degree. Lee once said that
he would have won Gettysburg, had he
had Jackson with him. Who so worthy
to succeed Jackson as the man who
had successfully replaced him on his
last and greatest field?"

ualties of the battle, including the pre-
lminary skirmishes. is as follows:

held responsible in the judgment of his
country and of history for the want OF
controlling direction which had given
so much advantage to the Ccnfederates
since the morning of the 3d-since that
fatal hour when, stricken down like so
many others around him, his feeble
hand had been equally powerless in
welding the baton of command or for
transferring 1t to one of his lieutenants.
''The share of responsibility resting
upon each one gave rise to lively dis
cussion and bitter recrirninations, but
none OF the soldiers who had crossed
the Rappahannock during that memor-
able week entertained the least doubt

The election for president will be held
on July H. In connection with the

in eighteen and the Fusion ticket in one
Based on these reports, Senior 0baldia
