paragraph: We are gratified to be able to state that the number of Virginians now holding office in Lincoln's army is much smaller than was indicated by the list published by us the other day, as furnished by one who thought he was "posted" on the subject. Major George C. Waggaman, whose name appears on that list as Assistant Quartermaster General in the Lincoln army, resigned that position, we now state upon good authority, some time since. Major Page, whose name is on the list as Assistant Adjutant General, has been dead upwards of a year. Had he lived, he would have doubtless been among the first to declare for the South. We have already announced that Major Albert J. Smith, Capt. T. G. Williams, and Capt. T. A. Washington, whose names were on the Lincoln list, are in the active service of the Confederate Government. We still hope to hear of the resignation of Col. Philip St. George Cooke, of Col. Stepice, and of others who are still reported as in the Yankee service.
oon silenced the Confederate battery. The same gun was then directed toward the enemy's cavalry, which appeared on the road leading to Falls Church, and soon sent them flying, a number of them reeling from their saddles and falling to the ground as the shells exploded in their midst. The command was then given to withdraw, and our column returned in good order to the Chain Bridge, reaching there late in the afternoon, without any attempt being made by the enemy to pursue them. General Smith, commanding the division to which these troops are attached, arrived on the ground shortly after the engagement commenced, and at once assumed command. The names of the killed of the Federal troops are as follows: Sergeant Samuel Goodwin, company I; privates Oliver Hubbel and Wm. K. H. Wood, of company D. Lieutenant Hancock, of company I, is supposed to have been killed, as he was to fall. Three privates in company. It were wounded, and three are supposed to be ta
A strong detachment of Confederates was discovered out of their camp on this side of the river, and shortly afterwards the scouts discovered themselves in the face of a parapet battery and a long line of palisades, when the battle opened fiercely. The Confederates poured upon the Federals a terrible fire of musketry, rifles, canister, and shell, causing some casualties. Col. Settle led several companies of his Irish to charge the batteries, when he was brought down by a shot in the leg. Col. Smith engaged the Confederates on the left, and Col. Lowe directly in front, Col. Lowe was killed. McMullen's howitzer battery and Snyder's two field ideces got into the best position possible, and soon silenced two of the Confederates' guns.--The fire slackened at internals, but grew more furious as night approached, when the German Brigade was led into action by Col. McCook, under the direction of Adjutant-General Hortzenf. After a furious fight, which lasted three hours, night compelled the
