The battle raged r furiously for about two hours, when the ,Yankee line gave back some four miles, passing through and below Gettysburg.'we oc cupying the town and capturing their wounded, some thirty-five hundred in number, aud also a latge num ber of armed prisoners these latter being-captured, I learn, by Ewell. Thus the fight closed on Wednes day, with a signal advantage to us. It had been an open field fight, and charging over slight acclivities, in which our troops, by intrepid valor, had success fully driven the enemy before them. fTOiS 'e'n: forced, and took up a strongly, fortified position on a series of very elevated hills in; the rear of Gettysburg. From these hills an effort was made by. us, but un successfully, to dislodge them on Thursday, the 24. The fight was negun and mainly contested on the right by Hood's and McLaws' divisions, of lngstreet's corps Gen. L.J, with his forces," having reached the field after the close of the fight on Wednesday. . E well was also engaged during this day on the extreme left with the enemy, who attempted to turn his extreme right our, extreme left by moving in upon him from above, between Gettysburg and Carlisle j but in this they were successfully repulsed. The centre, ; under Gen. Hill, on this day held its ground firmly. Glen. Longstreet, on the right, succeeded on this day . in driving them in on the right to a distance of fully a mile. The results of this day's fighting can not be said to have been, by thy means, a decided success tolls. That they lost heavily cannot be gainsaid; , but their. position, ' nataralty a very strong one, was held by not less thanybur lines pf infantry, and every spot available for artillery bristled with the enemy's cannon. Oar men actually got the fortifications once or twice, but sothmneel were their ranks by the losses they had sustained that they were compelled to give back. , The field was literally strewn with the dead and dying Yankees, and no slight sprinkling of our brave defenders mingled with them. ' .The fight for. the possession of the heights was re newed again on Friday, Meantime, Gen. Pickett's division of Gen. Longstreet's corps had reinforced our right, and was principally engaged, with most disas trous loss of officers and men in this da ys work Geh. t it .---if .. 1 I. . mi T llill ii'TM I ,ir- diers ArmistetMJj Oaruott and Kern per -bei d g killed. A.P.'Hill was also warmly jd successfully engaged' during this day, but I am not able to spak as to the results which he achieved. , The result of the three days fight may be sammedt up. in immense losses on both sides ; 'but iu the last two days' encounters we were unable toh carry the heights beyond and below Gettysburg, -The conse quence was, that an Friday night our troops fell back some two miles, evacuating Gettysburg, and forming outline of battle still some two miles in advance of the position whichi we held at the opening of the fight on Wednesday evening. ' On Saturday morning our . wagon trains were brought out in sight of the enemy, as also our ambu lance trains, and moved off in the direction of Cham bersburg. It is also said that we moved our lines back sumo distance during Saturday night, and that on Sunday tho enemy pressed forward eagerly, when Ewell, who had apparently fallen back, but who had, in reality, hid in the rocks, near his old position, passed in their rear, just beyond Gettysburg and to- wards the enemy's old position beyond the town, and made prisoners of fif ty-three regiments. This, I must say, is unconfirmed. Oar loss has. I ccn most serious, especially in gen- eral and field officers, and largely in men. General Tender is wounded severely, but not dangerously, Gen. Hood had his left arm struck by a ball, but will to able to save it. Gen.IIetb is wounded slightly ha is hero, as is also Gen. Tender. Gen. G. T.

Reports from the army all cgncur that the spirit of the men is invincible, and that they are nothing dampened by the late severe battles, in which our loss cannot, I think, fall far short of ten thousand; some two' thousand of these I are now . here. At least three thousand more are now on .the road between here and Williamsport, Md. The accommodations for the wounded are quite inadequate," and the pa tience our of bravp have t the lack of preparation is praiseworthy in the highest degree '-still, those who are here seem to exert themselves to serve the; unfor tunate. The ladies, too, manifest some interest in the welfare of the wounded, and I-only regret that I can not say that it is more general. Perhaps, , however, 1 as there are a large number in the private residences, ' that the "ministering angels" do j more than is seen, and that their labors, though unseen by ' the public, are not unfelt or unappreciated by the sufferers. Generals Hoth, Scales. Pender, G.; T. Anderson and Jenkins, are here, and well cared for. General. Semmes is said to be at Marti nsburg. A good num- ber of the wounded have gone up the Valley.1 Since my letter of yesterday, 1 have obtained from the registry at the Receiving Hospial, the following additional list of wounded and staff officers : THere follows another list of twenty-four officers, of whom the following are from this State i CJoLH Himon, (?)ilth regiment; 6-l.

Oar loss in killed is small compared with the wounded.' Our loss in pris oners it is thought will reach at least three thousand 1 have no means of ascertaining the enemy's loss, but am satisfied that it is very heavy, being certaiuly much larger than ours. Yankee papers are said to admit a loss of four general officers. The great loss of general, field and sta IT officers was unavoidable, on account of our position being so well commanded, and, indeed, raked by tho enemy s bat- I teries and uot because of an v necessity to expows them selves in order to get the troops forward, for all con- : cur that the wen never fought better or charged hard- cr or fatter. !'

One of the. most difilcult questions to settle A will he that of the territoriesTwhich. if not? settled definitely and conclusively bya convention between the two Confederacies, mav lead to enlless disputes, and, perhaps, endless hnstili ties. It may be that the old Missouri Compromise may be adopted, but what ever line may be adopted as the limit of the Northern and. Southern territories, that line must be clearly and distincilv -drawn. Whatever disputes may arise . about these territoriesr they certainly cannot origin-' . ate in any fear that cither confederacy' will not have sufficient lands to meet the demands of their popula- tion for two or three centuries to comeT' At the close of the war a new question will come up for the consideration of that portion that still remains of the old Union; This is no less a question than the future position of the border slave . Slates.: Jf the principle of universal sufferage is ,to prevail iwith re gard to the election of their choice between the North and the Fbuth, then that question must be left to their uwu uwisiorj oy a general ejection in i;nai ocate, ana ith regard to the election, we. believe that if left en . tirely untrammeled by governmental or bayonet in terference, they will decide by large majorities of their populations to go with the Southern Confederacy . - f On which the Enquirer remarks : r This is all right, with the exception Of part of Ar ticle IV. The Northern Federation can declare free trade forjtself, and can prohibit custom houses forit self, and ean make the navigation of the Mississippi free within its own borders. All those matters will be dealt with by us also for ourselves, and with refer ence to bur own interests and policy. We have al ways offered the free navigation of the Mississippi, but this does by no means imply the absence of cus toms duties upon merchandize landed iu our ports for sale there.
