You may be sure to be in the army three years--it is proved now that the North can't subdue the South in less time. You see now that the 'rabbles' can fight better than the Yankees.

Balloons were sent up yesterday and to-day. The wagon train is still visible, and the tents of the enemy dot the country for miles. A member of Sickles's brigade says that out of 5,000 men not more than 500 are left.
