A cavalry force, contributing of portions of the 1st, 2d and 6th United States cavalry followed by Clarke's fight battery of regulars, with the 53d Pennsylvania, under Col. J. R.

Sock of the 57th New York and Caldwell's Heagher's, and Lee's (formerly Dens's) brigades. The men were all in the condition, and eager to meet the enemy. The enemy were not seen until after patrick when their pickets fell back as we advanced, without whiling be hear from our advanced skirmished.

enew the fight. Gen. Burnside remained on the ba field all night, giving orders, looking to the position and condition of our forces, and encouraging them in view of the work to be performed. If any newspaper ever contained an account of a defeat so muddled as the above, and yet so transparent in its design, we have never seen it. It beats McClellan's dispatches. Federal officers killed Brig. Gen. Jackson, of Pa. was killed; and Gens. Vinton, Kendall, Meagher, Gibbon, and Caldwell wounded. Gen. Bayard, of the cavalry, was also killed, and Lieut.-Col. Dickinson. The former was to have been married on Wednesday. A dispatch from headquarters, dated the 15th, says there was much firing the day before between the two armies, and that at one time the enemy showed a disposition to advance on Franklin's corps. The Yankees claim to have taken 700 prisoners. The Confederate cavalry made a raid on Pooleville, Md., on the 14th, and captured a whole company of "Scott

. Hill's command, and much anxiety is created as to his whereabouts. It is supposed by many that Hill has gone to intercept Sigel, who is probably on his way to Culpeper, and by others that he may be working around in our rear. In addition to the officers already mentioned as being killed and wounded, I learn the following were among the unfortunate ones: General Jackson, of the Pa Reserves, and Lieut. Col. Dickinson, 4th U. S. artillery, were both killed. Gens. Vinton, Kimball, Caldwell, and Campbell were wounded, but none of them seriously. --Major Jennings, of the 26th New York Volunteers, and Col. Sinclair, of the Pa. Reserves, are also among the wounded. All the wounded are being properly cared for, and to-night the surgeons are indefatigable in their efforts to relieve the sufferers.

sible to drive the rebels from that position. A second effort was warmly urged by several of the Generals, but fighting "Joe Hooker" contended that it would be more folly, unless a night attack could be successfully carried out. The terrible loss in the Second Army Corps will appal the public, says the writer, and yet in the summary I sent you to night I put it a thousand less than its commander does. Hancock lost over half his command, and he feels deeply the fate of his noble men. Caldwell, Meagher, and Zook, who led brigades, did their work well. Before going into action Meagher addressed his brigade, exhorting them to stand firm, and promising them that he would share with them the privilege of being the last to leave the field. That they did stand firm we knew yesterday, when two hundred and fifty nations were all that were required for the brigade, which went into action twelve hundred strong. The World says, editorially, that no further effort to reach Richmond wi

the enemy from his trains in the rear. Hill's corps had reached Bristoe about simultaneously with Warren — in fact, had just got ahead of him sufficiently to form a line of battle, which he did perpendicular to the railroad. The battle of Bristoe. The position was the most perilous one in which a column can be placed — marching by the flank and met by the enemy in line of battle. Gen. Warren was equal to the emergency. The troops were brought up at a run — the first division (Caldwell's) having come up thus for a mile and a half, laden with eight days rations. The troops which had been marching on the left of the railroad were brought quickly over to the right, and Gen. Warren, seeing that the enemy had neglected to occupy the cut and embankment of the railroad, on the instant jumped his men unseen, into it. More prudence on the part of the rebel commander, or less sagacity on the part of the Union commander, would have proved the destruction of that corps. The r<
