the sunshine showed itself, however, the infantry were brought into play, and the work commenced in real earnest. Generals Mead and Gibbon's division encountered the right of Gen A. P. Hill's command and Longstreet's veterans. The fight raged furiously during the entire day, and our troops suffered terribly from the enemy's artillery. The enemy were posted behind hills in great strength, and at one time it seemed impossible to dislodge them. About noon Gen. Gibbon was relieved by Gen. Doubleday's command.--Gen. Mead, who was fighting against superior odds, was also reinforced by Gen. Stoneman's command, which had the effect of checking the rebels and driving them back a short distance. It was in the midst of this struggle that Gen Gibbon was wounded and partially disabled. He kept the field, however, during the remainder of the day, and won many laurels by his brilliant conduct. Gen, McClellan's endorsement of Gibbon's dash and ability has been fully borne out by the result

It is supposed by many that Hill has gone to intercept Sigel, who is probably on his way to Culpeper, and by others that he may be working around in our rear. In addition to the officers already mentioned as being killed and wounded, I learn the following were among the unfortunate ones: General Jackson, of the Pa Reserves, and Lieut. Col. Dickinson, 4th U. S. artillery, were both killed. Gens. Vinton, Kimball, Caldwell, and Campbell were wounded, but none of them seriously. --Major Jennings, of the 26th New York Volunteers, and Col. Sinclair, of the Pa. Reserves, are also among the wounded. All the wounded are being properly cared for, and to-night the surgeons are indefatigable in their efforts to relieve the sufferers.

No doubt the rebels will fall back on our advance to a line beyond Dusk river, where they may dispute the crossing. It was rumored here that General Halleck had ordered a simultaneous advance here and on the Potomac. Gov. Johnson publishes the following proclamation in to-morrow's Union. Executive Office, Dec. 13, 1862. Whereas, there are many helpless widows, wives, and children in the city and scenery, who have been reduced to poverty and wretchedness in consequence of their husbands, sons and fathers having been forced into the armies by this unholy and un- furious rebellion, and their necessities having become greatly manifest, and their wants of the necessaries of life so urgent, that law, justice and humanity would be grimly violated unless something be done to relieve their suffering condit

The slight resistance that General Lee offered to the crossing of the Rappahannock seems to have been designed, and not a matter altogether of necessity, as many were led to suppose yesterday.--It seems to have been ascertained to-day beyond much doubt that Jackson did not effect a junction with Lee until last
