General Items. -
...A number of our wounded men brought down last evening were carried to the
houses of private citizens for nursing. Two trains arrived, the second bringing
the wounded. A third was expected last night with Yankee prisoners to the number
of five or six hundred. The prison depot is already full. Among the lot of
rubbish brought here Tuesday night, were 65 Yankee officers, including one
Corcoran, who commanded the 69th N. Y. Regiment, which was somewhat
demoralized Sunday by the “rebels.”
