That was all the fight. Our men retired in good order, losing only two and taking five prisoners from the enemy. Patterson's lying dispatch to Washington makes it out that he gained a tremendous victory; but, bah ! Yankees can't help lying; it is born in them and nourished by educatifew are sick from it. Hundreds of the sick, with imprudent bravery, deserted the hospitals and went out to join in the fight. Thus ended this expedition to whip Patterson, and various are the opinions of it. All think Johnston acted prudently, but all regret that we had no fight. And here we are stationed, all around this place,

Gen. Patterson's dispatch relative to the number of the enemy engaged at Hainesville on Monday, has been sadly perverted by the telegraphic operators.
