vancing, Anally met with a heavy body of fresh
troops thrown suddenly and vigorously against
him, and was driven back over part of the
ground he hud just won. Riokctts' line was at
the same time hard pressed, and became deser
ted. Mansfield, who had come over the creek
the night bafore, was ordered into the woods,
to Uicketts' support, and Hartsuff's brigade,
part of Doubleday's command, was sent to sus
tain Meade. Mansfield took the greatest part
of his troops to Rickctls' help, but tliey were
unable to extend their line, and in the effort to
push forward his men, General Mansfield was
■mortally wounded. General Hartsuff advan
ced to the relief of Meade, with the 12th and
13th Massachusetts, aiul another regiment.—
The Pennsylvania troops were retiring in haste
'and some confusion. Hartsuff seized a brigade
1n front of the field, over which the rebels were
pressing, and held it in splendid style for more
■than an hour, against a greatly superior attack,
iiis men behnved most gallantly, standing on
this exposed ground, firing steadily, and never
wavering once.
Gen. Hartsuff was vbry soon severely woun
ded. His troops retained their position, and
finally, by the precision and rapidity of their
•fire, compelling the enemy to retreat instantly,
advanced in pursuit, whilo they had been en
gaged. Hooker ordered up Crawford's and
Gordon's brigades to their support. Ilartsufl
retained the advaneo, and Crawford and Gor
don followed in support. A rebel battery on
the right, which had been most annoying by an
enfilading fire, was about the same time silenced
by Doubleday's gun, and Hooker ordered bis
whole line forward.
The rebels were driven through the corn-fie'nl
again into the woods beyond, where they could
not easily be dislodged without artillery. Gen.
Hooker, who all the morning had kept himself
under the fire, and generally in the hottest of it,
rode forward to examine the ground in front, in
order to plant a battery. As ho rode tip the
ihill he became a conspicuous mark for the rebel
sharpshooters; their fire increased very sudden
ly, and General Hooker was wounded in the
left foot, a bullet passing entirely through it.
The wound was excessively severe and painful,
nnd he was compelled to leave the field. Three
men were shot down by his side at the same mo
ment be was wounded.
Crawford had found the rebels in great force
in the woods, and was already in need of assis
tance. Sedgwick's flank also became exposed
■on the left in consequence of the distance be
tween him and the other divisions- The rebels
perceived their' advantages, and at the same
time pressing Crawford and attacking on Sedg
wick's, broke Crawford's line, which fell back
in confusion on Sedgwick. The 34th New
York, on the left, was forced to give way at the
same time, and the woods were yielded to the
enemy.
Gen. Sedgwick was severely wounded in the.
shoulder, leg, and wrist, hut refused to leave
the field till his division retired. Gen. Howard
then took command, and ordered the division
in the rear. Major Sedgwick, aid of General
Sedgwick, was shot through the body, but is
not mortally wounded. Matty of the rcgimncts
suffered most severely. The loth Massachu
setts lost nine out of seventeen officers. Col.
Hinks, of the 19th Massachusetts, was killed.
Col. Wistar, Ist California, was severely woun
ded. The 34th New York could gather but
thirty-four tnen when rallied.
French and llichardson meantime held a po
sition well to the left and less in advance, and
kept it. Gen. Richardson, nof long after, was
severely wounded in the shoulder, while lending
u bolting regiment. Gen. Dana, of Sedgwick's
division, was wounded, but not severely. Gen.
Sumner found himself obliged, by this reverse,
to withdraw his lines to thoir first position, where
he held them firmly. He had been exposed
during all the action to the hottest of the fire.
Col. Revere, of his staff, was wounded in the
Arm; Capt. Audenricd in tholog.
Meanwhile the forces in front of the whole
line had been gaining some ground. I lard fight
ing all along the line has continued at intervals
through the day. French and Slocnm were
well toward the centre. It was time to hear
from Burnside, who had been long delayed in
his effort to carry the bridge.
At four o'clock McClellnn sent orders to
Buritside to cross at once, at all hazards, and
capture or silence the battery in front. The
bridge was captured in grand style, hut with
the loss of Col. Kingsbury and dOO killed and
wounded. Burnside, when once across, advanced
on the rebel right, along the Sharpsburg road
and up the slopes of the hill. A position of
great importance was carried at first by his int
v petuous attack, but was afterward abandoned,
as the rebels were able to bring ten heavy mas
ses of troops from the centre and left to oppose
Burnside.
Our attack on the left having ceased for the
time, Sumner and Franklin were ordered by
MeClellan to hold their own, and the advance
of Burnside was relied on to decide the day.
Darkness was near before be was over thecreck,
and the forces against him too strong for his
numbers. 1-le, therefore, was obliged to con
tent himself with defending the biidgc and his
position beyond, and the final attack was post
poned till to morrow. The fire oa both sides
died away gradually, and at seven o'clock the
battle was over for the day. Its results I have
Stated above. It was everywhere very desper
ately contested, and the loss on both sides is very
large. Ten generals on our side arc killed and
wounded.—A 7 . Y. Tribune.
