ed would reach seven hundred or more. The number of our men captured by the enemy is estimated at one hundred and fifty. The terrific fire of cannon and musketry (says the Express of yesterday) which startled our citizens last evening about 7½ o'clock, was caused by an effort on the part of the Confederates to recapture battery No. 5, which was entirely successful, the enemy being driven at all points with the bayonet. This is a most important position, as it commands the high hill at Friend's farm, on the City Point road. It was this position which the enemy charged and captured from us at a late hour Wednesday evening. Among the causalities on Thursday were the following: Lieut. Col. Peyton Wise, 46th Virginia regiment, seriously wounded; Capt. George D. Wise, of Gen. Wise's staff, wounded; Col. J. K. Payne, 26th Virginia, killed, Lieut. Col. J. C. Councill, same regiment, wounded; Capt. John Cargill Pegram, of Gen. Matt., Ransom's staff, mortally wounded and since dead.
