Tha Confederate losses are compiled from tbe official reports of tbe commanding officers, (when such reports were published ) Of course, we eaa only guess at the loesea of the- enemy. Tbe Northern papers seldom nnbliah ths official reoorts of tbe Federal Generals, aod tbe latter have generally proved themselves sucb monstroas falsifiers that but little confidence can ba placed in their re ports when they are published For instance. Picayune Bntler stated his loss at Bethel at about thirty, when it la a notorious fact tbat one small sanadLof Megruder's men alone buried thirty-two Federal bodies after the battle In estimating tbe Federal lo8aee,?wa have adopted tbe opiniona of tbe Confederate officers commanding, who are senile men, snd npon whose statement reliance may be placed. , CONFEDERATE BUCCKHBK3.
