the retreat. These last-mentioned guns (Fingerson's battery,) have been recovered, the enemy being unable to get them off after his bloody repulse by Cleburne at Ringgold Gap. Our loss in stores was inconsiderable, and in wagons about one hundred. The Federal loss in killed and wounded was far heavier than ours. In front of our right and Bate's division the ground was blue with their slain. The army retired to Chickamauga Station the night after the battle, and next day marched to Ringgold, and on the succeeding day, the 27th, reached Dalton, where it is still encamped. The pursuit of the enemy was vigorous until the 27th, when it was repulsed by Cleburne with a loss of 300 prisoners, 2,000 killed and wounded, and three flags. On the 29th Gen.

Major James Wilson and Capt Cabell Breckinridge, staff officers of Gen. Breckinridge; and Major Winchester, Gen. Bates's A. A. General, are among them.

Bragg and his army that night, (the 30th of November,) as an immense column was parked around our left before the attack was made in front. They say that they met a second line after dark, which hindered their getting to Chickamauga bridge and station. They boast of cutting off Longstreet and of having sent heavy reinforcements to Burnside. The Yankees admitted a repulse at Ringgold, and that, fearing another Chickamauga, they retired. The slaughter of Federal was very great along the line leading to Bragg's headquarters.
