o taken prisoners at on time, but succeeded in making their escape. Among the prisoners are Col. Penn, of the 7th Louisiana regiment, and Capt. John Angel, commanding the 5th Louisiana regiment. It is also believed that Col. A. C. Godwin is a prisoner, as on Sunday, the day after the battle, both brigades were under the charge of Gen. Hayes. The list of killed and wounded on our side will probably not exceed three or four hundred, a very small proportion of whom being officers. Col. Sellers, of the 30th North Carolina regiment, received a mortal wound in the right breast. This officer led his regiment into the fight on foot, and is represented to have showed great fearlessness, and courage. In the early part of the engagement he received a severe wound in the arm, but refused to leave the field, and continued to cheer on his men till later in the evening, when he was struck the second time, and had to be borne off the field, Capt.

y exaggerated. We are enabled, from conversation with a number of wounded officers and men who were in the fight, to give a fuller and more reliable narrative of the affair than has been published. The fight occurred near Kelley's Ford, our forces being on the further side of the river, and the Yankees appearing in force to drive them off and force a passage of the stream. The Confederates engaged were Hayes's brigade, consisting of the 5th, 7th and 9th Louisiana regiments, commanded by Gen. Hays; and the 6th and 30th N. C. regiments of Hoke's brigade, commanded by Col. Archibald C. God. win. These troops had been stationed on the north side of the Rappahannock, doing picket service, when, about 11 o'clock on Saturday morning, the drums beat to quarters, and orders were given that every man must fall into the ranks and be prepared for an immediate attack. In a very short time our outpost pickets and the enemy's skirmishers were hotly engaged, our own pickets gradually yielding

Drawing his sword and putting spurs to his horse, he dashed through them, and finally escaped capture. In his flight he leaped a parapet of considerable height, and plunging his horse into the river reached the south bank of the Rappahannock uninjured. Col. Peck, of the 9th Louisiana regiment, Lieut-Col. Hodge, of the same regiment, and Lieut. Col. Terry, of the 7th Louisiana regiment, were also taken prisoners at on time, but succeeded in making their escape. Among the prisoners are Col. Penn, of the 7th Louisiana regiment, and Capt.

The Confederates engaged were Hayes's brigade, consisting of the 5th, 7th and 9th Louisiana regiments, commanded by Gen. Hays; and the 6th and 30th N. C. regabout fifteen hundred. We learn that the 6th North Carolina regiment entire fell into their hands, and that about 400 of Hayes's brigade also failed to escape. The fight is represented to have been of the most terrific character, and when we tae was repulsed before the enemy finally succeeded in capturing them.

John Weatherspoon, of company K, 30th N. C. regiment, was also severely wounded. Among the Yankees it is believed that several General officers were killed, as a short time before the close of the day, and when perhaps the enemy thought they had captured all our troops, a group of mounted officers, evidently prominent leaders, rode right into a party of our troops who were in a ravine, when they immediately rose up and fired. Not one of them escaped, as they were seen to fall apparently lifeles
