The battles near Richmond.
list of killed and wounded.

From such returns as have come into our possession, we make up the following additional list of casualties among our troops engaged in the battles of Saturday and Sunday last, near this city:


Second South Carolina brigade in Saturday's battle.

Col. Jenkins, commanding brigade, led in person his own regiment (the Palmetto Sharpshooters) and the 6th South Carolina regiment, and having flanked the enemy on their right, changed front and drove down their lines, meeting and routing five lines of fresh troops, consisting of the following regiments; 104th Pennsylvania, old Pennsylvania, 10th Massachusetts, 16th New York, 100th New York, 11th Maine, and 1st Kentucky, as was ascertained from their wounded and prisoners. The advance was begun about 2½ P. M., and the last fire given at 20 minutes to 8 P. M., driving through four camps, over three abattis of fallen timber, over two batteries, to six hundred yards across the Williamsburg road, routing in every case the enemy. These being advanced upon down the Williamsburg road, front was changed, and after receiving the fire at seventy-five yards a charge was made, routing the last line. This was after dark. At this last charge the Palmetto Sharp-shooters and 6th regiment were reinforced by the 28th Georgia and 5th South Carolina, who had been gallantly fighting on the right, and night having closed upon the scene they slept in the enemy's camp at least one mile further down the Williamsburg road than our next troops had advanced in the fight. Our exhausted men refreshed themselves with the fine brandy and honey left in the camps of the flying foe, and the slumbers of the South Carolinians were not disturbed by the fact that they found shelter for the night in the tents of the 10th Massachusetts. The advance was so steady that the only pauses were for two or three minutes to dress the line and change front to the next line. Of eleven in the color guard of the Palmetto Sharp-shooters ten were shot down, and of eighty in the color companies forty were killed and wounded.

The three South Carolina regiments lost over seventy-three of their number in killed and wounded, and the enemy's dead was at least five to one. We will publish to-morrow a list of the casualties in Jenkine's Palmetto Sharp-shooters.


The Sixth South Carolina regiment.

We have not been able to procure a list of the casualties in the South Carolina regiment, but learn that Col. John Bratton was seriously wounded, Capt. Finney, Capt. Gaston, Capt. Lyle and Capt. Walker were killed, besides many others whose names we could not learn. We understand, however, that out of 425 men in the fight, there were 168 killed and wounded. This regiment fought gallantly, and did their best to sustain the confidence so often reposed in them by their greatly beloved Gen. R. H. Anderson.

The Fifth Alabama regiment.

Editors Dispatch: Observing a request in a late issue of your paper that Adjutants of regiments would forward a detailed account of the movements of their respective corps, I herewith submit a report of the movements of the 5th Alabama regiment, Rods's brigade, during the memorable battle of Barker's Farm.

This regiment, with the rest of the brigade, approached the enemy's works through a dense swamp, on the right of the Williamsburg road, knee deep in water, and emerging in line at the edge of the abattis formed by felled timber, encountered a heavy fire of grape, canister, and musketry. While passing over these obstructions, an order was received to move by the right flank, so as to charge more in the rear. This order was not received by the six left companies, which, under the command of Maj. Hobson, moved forward on the redoubt. The others, under Col. Pegues, moved by the right flank, and charged the works more in the rear; fortunately, however, just before the final charge of the brigade upon the batteries, the left wing came up, and the charge was made together with great enthusiasm. The colors were borne by Color-Sergt. A. H. Moore, who fell dead, shot in the breast and all dabbled in his life's blood; they were instantly seized by a corporal of the guard, and by him borne forward into the redoubt. After a short respite there, we again moved forward in the charge, driving the enemy back into cover, and passing through his camp. When within thirty yards of the brushwood we lay down, and here it was that we suffered so terribly — for pen cannot describe the terrific intensity of the storm. Finally, an order came to fall back to the cover of a wood-pile in our rear, which we did, leaving 100 of our number killed and wounded where we had lain. Our colors were shot down three times, and were finally borne off by a fourth party. In the fight of Sunday, this regiment was under fire, but sustained no loss. The officers and men behaved throughout with the utmost coolness and gallantry, and suffered severely, as will be shown by our official report.
