On the staff there is an elegant silver plate, with the words--"42d regiment N Y S V. Presented by city of New York."

We have lost in the operation, in killed, wounded and missing, probably about four hundred men, mostly wounded. Of officers, we have to mourn the gallant Major Camp, of the Tenth Connecticut, who fell close up to the rebel works, and whose remains were left on the field, and Lieutenant- Colonel Taylor, of the Sixty-second Ohio, mortally wounded.
