Federal Losses in the Leesburg battle.

The Northern papers furnish a partial list of the wounded in the battle of Leesburg, numbering 157. A good many more are still at Leesburg, whither they were carried after the fight. Their killed, drowned, and missing are variously estimated; but with all their ingenuity they cannot conceal the fact that they suffered a terrible disaster. Baker, it appears, from latest accounts, acted under orders to crossing the river, and it would not be surprising if this reverse at the commencement of his plans should bring down fierce d n lations upon the head of that per General.
