Lee's staff.--This gallant gentleman I have seen in several fights, and he seemed generally to seek the hottest places. Col. Lee, who seems, himself, fearless as one need be, several times cautioned Capt. T. about exposing himself, but to no purCol. Lee, who seems, himself, fearless as one need be, several times cautioned Capt. T. about exposing himself, but to no purpose. On Wednesday, as we were leaving the field, and while I stood near him, he was shot in the neck, and fell speechless from his horse. He was put upon a caisson, and brought off the field.

These monstrous lies cannot impos no use made of the victory? Why has not McClellan crossed the river and destroyed the army of Gen. Lee? Why has the latter been allowed to refresh and recruit at his leisure? The truth is this's rout would have been irremediable. But they were not in place, and the consequence was that Gen. Lee could not follow up his victory. He, however, remained on the field of battle all day Thursdayused a flag of truce from McClellan, which came with a request to be allowed to bury his dead. Gen.
