When darkness drew on the firing of small arms ceased, and tbe stillness of the night was only occasionally interrupted by the report of heavy guns. The result of tbe day’s bloody work ts easily summed up. At every point of attuck tbe enemy were effectually repulsed, and at night our forces slept on their aims ou tbs giouml occupied by them In tbe morning. The number of prison ers taken during tbe day ia vuriou»iy estimated from 600 to 1,000, uud we think will reach the latter figure. Among tbess are a uunrbtr ot rniuor officers. Ia conversation with uue of them —a man ot more than ordinary intilhgeuce—he stated that Hurngr e’s 'orces did not - kcued 100,- 000 men, ned that no confidence is felt umoug the troops that they will bs surctssful in the struggle i now in progress and which resu.tcd with such i decided advantage to our arms on Matutday.

On Sunday night the Fredericksburg cars brought down lo Richmond eight hundred and thirty-seven wounded officers and men, who were conveyed to Seabrock’a Warehouse, and thence distributed to the various hospitals to which they appropr ateiy belonged.

These, together with tbe dressing of the wounds, were pcrl-ruied at the Receiving Hospital. The wonnd e-J tun were ail ua cheorlul as men could be under such circumstances. Most of the wouuded oflicors coincide m tbe opinion that the Abolition forces do not now fight with that vim that used to dis tinguish them At oua time, during Saturday's fight, a whole brigade of the enemy siampeded on the first fire iroui our brave men.
