A Hospital Scene.A ladv who went to the Tennessee
River to'visit her husband who was iuthe army, and who spent some time as anurse iu (mo of the hospitals, gives auaccount of her experience. We quotethe followieg touching sketch from oneof her letters :
My next patient was an. orphan boy,sixteen years of age. Frank 15 , be-longud to Birge's sharpshooters, and abraver heart never belt in the bosom ofmortal than that which bout in his.
Fraiikie's biue eyes greeted me with asmile before I «as near enough to speakto him. When I bent over and askedhim how he felt, he answered me cheer-fully, saying he Imped to be able soon toreturn to his regiment.
I b#thed his face, gave him a cup ofhot lea, with .some toast, and left himsleeping sweetly
Poor little Frank 15. daily grew weak-er. Notb/.ng could tempt hiiu to eat, andhis oough grew worse, while his face became thin and pale. He never lo.Tt hisjoyous spirit, but always seeimd hopeful,even when too ill to rise from his berth.
One afternoon 1 was startled on enter-ing, by the most piteous cries, and foundthat they came from my little favorite,generally so brave and putieut
" Why, Frankie, what is the matter ?"I asked, bending over him. •
" Oh, you have come ! I did wish foryou so much, Oh, I shall die, I wantedsomebody by who seemed to care for mea little. You do like me, dou't you,dear Mrs. 8. ? You've been so krtidto me. Oh, this pain ! i can't stand itlong !"
His hands grasped mine nervously,and every fibre iu his frame quiveredwith pain. I saw the dews of deathwere standing thickly already on thebroad, beautiful forehead over which thefair hair clustered so pivttily, and myeyes fil'ed with tears of sorrow deeperthan words can express. I stooped tokiss him, and a glad cry escaped thepoor blue lips ol ihe dying boy.
' 'Oh, kiss mo again, wou't you? thatis like my sister. Do kiss me once more;1 feel better Oh, I would n't mind todie, if my sisters were here to tell methey loved me. You do love me a lit-tle, dou't you?'' ,
'! Yes a great deal, Frankie : as muchas if I were your sister. Dou't you thinkso ? I'm sure you re a good boy, and 1 amsorry to see you suffer so."
lie drew me down tjward him, andpressed his face close to my arms Icould endure no more. The poor boy'smute appeal for tenderness and sympa-thy in his dying lmur. far from home,breathing out his young iife ainid stran-gers, unnerved me. 1 drew that youngbright head to my bosom, and my tearsfell fast upon his sunny curls.
Did the gentle sisters he loved haveone thought of the scene that was trans-piring on that night, while perchancethey sat. and talked of him, their onlyand petted brother in their far off homein Nebraska?
" You will ftay with mo to night,won't you ?" he plead again. " Oh, youwon't leave me to die alone I"
" No, Frankie, I'll stay with you."He was comforted, and became more
quiet ae I clasped his hands and tried tosoothe him. Gradually a purple hueoverspread his face. iNow his lips be-came whiter, and the large clear eyesgrew restless.
\\ hen he could no longer speak, thoseeyes plead for some token of endearment,and each time that I pressed a kiss uponhis forehead, a look of deep and earnestgratitude softened the suffering expres-sion of bis face
About nine o'clock be breathed hislast, and now every time I look down atmy hand and see the little ring of minehe wore before he died, I seem to see theparting look of his great sad eyes erethey were fixed in death. Howsad the taskto brush back the damp locks from thecold brow, and compose the blue limbsin their last repose! That night I weptand prayed for the sisters as I had neverwept and prayed for myself; he was aUthey had

THE FIGHT ON SUNDAY.

Correspondent of the N. Y. Times.FIELD OF UATTLK BEFORE KICHMOND,
SuniUy A. M., June 1, 18G2.A battle before Richmond has at
put to ihe test the rebel boast as to whatthey would do with General McOle.bin's!>rmy when they should get it beyondthe protection of the gunboats. Thoughthe advantage of a suddci? movement,against the weakest point in our lines,gave the enemy a temporary success, thefinal result has not been such as to affordonccMirngemcut to their disheartened anddemoralized troops, or occasion any fearsas to our ultimate possession of the rebelcapital.
The attack commenced shortly before1 o'clock on Saturday, on the left wingof the army, on the furher side of theChickahomiuy where the advance posttiou was held by the division of GeneralCasey, much the weakest in the army,composed almost entirely of rate regiments,and reduced by disease to an effective forceof some 6,000 men.
THE POSITION HELD BY GENERAL CASEY
Was on the Williamsburg sta^ro road,within six or seven miles of Richmond,and ou a line so extended at the fronthat. the troops required to maintain)ieket guards of sufficient strength, made10 slight draft on his weakened forces.The right of the line was hi Id by thefirst Brigade, under Gen H. M.Neglee,iis pickets extended across the railroadrunning parallel with the Williamsburgoad, about a mile to the right) to nearhe sixth mile-post from Richmond, ando on furthi r to the right and a ti: tie tohe rear until within a short distance
where3en. Smuner had thrown a bridge acrosshe stream, and was hourly expected toross to complete the line of pickets tohe i iver.
The entire of Gen. Casoy's position,
but litttla artillery, iind wore evidentlydisposed to make good tho deficiency bypre$MH£ to close quarters with thair su-perior forces, to bear down at once byweighi of numbers the feeble skeletonregiments of three or four hundred meuwhS Composed the advance division.
Most of Casey's troops were thrownforward to the edge of the woods in frontof the position to moot the advance ofthe rebels, a few regiments being left behind the partially completed rifle pits, ashort distanc to tho rear. Thus a division, nuarly new to warfare, was suddenly exposed, in an open fie^d, to theheaviest of fire from an enemy covered toa considerable extent by tho woodsthrough which they were advancing.—Officer after officer fell, or was bornefrom the field a wounded man ; the mendropped by scores, and the usual numberof weak jointed ones were falling to therear But in spite of the rapid thinningof their ranks, the regiments generallyheld their ground until the enemy sueceeded in pushing around on the lefflank, a:id poured in an enfilading firefrom that direction. The sixty roundsofammuuition with which they enteredthe fight were nearly exhausted, aud ii<moie was at hand.
ARRIVAL OF REINFOIiCESIENTS.
Meantime one of General Couch's brigades, oommauded by General Abercroiubio, was ordered up to the support ol[jeneral Neglee on tho right, GeneralDi'veus, of the same division, sustainingjeneral Wassell ou the centre, and Gen-
)t a point on the Chiekahc
eld by the Second Brigade, Gen. Was-ill's (formerly Gen. Kcim's) extended•orn Gen. Neglee's lines to the left aiort distance across the Williumsburgoad, where it joined the Third Brigade,
). Palmer's, stretching some distanceurther to the left, and joined the linesf Gen. Couch, who guarded the leftink, the main portion of his forces be-
ing a short distance to the rear of Casey,ou the Williauisburg road.
THE NATURE OF THE OROUN'11.
The position occupied by the mainbody of these two divisions was a clear-ing of about one mile square, surroundedon the left and ihe front by a forest,iu -which Geu Casey's pickets werestationed. On the right, a woodedswamp divided th

The lino was rap-idly formed in double quick while ad-tvatfeing towards the enemy's position.—'The centre and left wing extended intoa thick growth of pines By the timethe left wing had formed, the regimentwas within thirty feet of the slashes.—Tho enemy immediately opened a terri-ble fire on the centre and tho left.

During Monday night orders oatoe forus to march early Tuesday morning, withtwo days ration?, and with our overcoatsaud shelter tents swung over our shoul-ders. In the night rain set in, and Tues-day morning, at an early hour, and in aheavy rain storm, this whole division wasastir, getting ready for a march. Beforemany of this regiment could get anythingto eat the order was given to " fall in,"and off we started in a rain storm, whichis nothing unusual for us. For threehours the rain continued to descend, whilethe ground began to loosan, to mix, andsoou became nothing more or loss than alarge mortar bed. For miles we wadedthrough mud aud water up to our knees,aud sometimes we would get into a claybed, where we could hardly got out.
At the time of leaving camp none ofus knew our destination, though I thoughtthat we were to strike the Virginia Cen-tral Railroad, but at what point I knewnot, neither did I think that we wouldreach it as soon as we did, and still fur-ther from my thoughts was the idea thatthis division was to fight and win twobattles that day.
About noon the rain ceased, the suncame out, and the heat became intense.The command was now given to "halt 'and rest, and we scattered into the woods.Hardly were we seated before the boom-ing of a cannon was heard in front, andbut a few miles from us. Another andanother followed in quick succession, andthose by the rattling of musketry. Wewere hastily formed and commenced ourmarch towards the firing. A short inarchbrought us in sight of our battery, whenour brigade, by regiments, formed intoline of battle, and each in its turn disap-peared in the woods, and made their waytowards the scent; of battle. This regi-ment lay here for some half an hour.Our situation was in a ravine a short dis-tance in the rear and also to the left ofour battery. Shells occasionally burstnear us, and one piece came singing downthe road, fell in a few feet of u?, and waspicked up by one of the boys. Whilewe were hero a number of wounded werecarried by us. We soon moved on thro'a dense wood towards the field of battle.Before we merged from the woods thefiring ceased, and the hurras of our menahead, annouueed to us that the rebelshad retreated. Soon we entered an openfield, to the left of where the rebel bat-tery had been planted. They had re-treated, leaving one brass piece. A num-ber of dead lay near it, while the wound-ed were being carried ofi". We movedon, crossing a ravine where the rebel in-fantry had been stationed, entered an-other field, and halted within a shortdistance of the Virginia Central Railroad.The ground over which we passed andnear tho ravine, was covered with allkinds of rebel clothing, paper, envelopes,&c. While hero a number of rebel pris-oners were brought in. They were NorthCarolina volunteers.
The order was once more given tomarch, and this brigade moved on to-wards Hanover Court House, over whichwas floating the rebel flag. A smallbody of rebels was ahead of us, but afew shells from our cannon sent them atpretty quick time towards the CourtHouse, and in 8 few moments afterwardsthe flag disappeared from the building.-—On reaching the railroad all of ourbrigade, with the exception of this regi-ment, filed oft' to the right of the road,and moved on towards the Court House.We followed up the road for a half mile,when we filed to the left and took a 0OUCS6for the Court House. W'r were formedinto line of battle, and line cm we went,over ditches, through swamps, and over
their best. We were now ordered off tothe right, Company A was thrown out asskirmishers, and onward we went, throughfields of wheat, across plowed grounds,over fences and ditches, towards a woodwhere the firing was going on. We wereclosely followed by our regiment, and therest of the brigade fast followed in theirrcar. Now a shout was heard in the di-rection of the battle ground. I t was an-swered by our regiment, and on we rush-ed at a quicker pace. Soon we reacheda wicket fence, I scrambled to the top ofit, and looked over and saw that the rail-road ran along here, through a grade ofsome ten feet in depth, the banks ofwhich were almost perpendicular.-—Throwing my feet over the fence, andgrasping my musket firmly, I let go, downI went, landed all right, scrambled upthe opposite bank, over another wicketfence and hurried on. A swamp nowlay before, into it we went, and at the firststep found ourselves up to the waist inmud mid water. Wo pushed on and Itell you we were mighty glad when vrcfound ourselves once again on solidground. We were now fast nearing thebattle field, The smell of powdor wasvery strong, and the the woods were fullof smoke; but on still we went, and soonhalted on the battle field, on the grourdwhich had lately been occupjed by therebels. No enemy was to be seen, wehad oo;:i3 up exactly on their left, theyheard us coming, and cutting their knap-sacks loose; they left in a a hnrry, noieven so much as giving ua q enance ofpotting a fire at them. The ?3d Penn-sylvania camo on our right, and os therebels broke from the woods, salutedthem with a volley, when they made offin another direction, and entirely disap-peared. The battle was won. I'OKTKR'Sdivision had marched twenty miles,through mud and rain, with nothingto eat except a little hard bread, andhad fought and won two battles that day.
Night was now upon us, and darknesssurrounded us as we marched book to thefirst battle field, where we made anddrank a hot cup of coffee, then threwourselves down upon our rubber blankets,our feet to a hot fire, our overcoatswrapped around us. and wore soon enjpy-ing a quiet sleep, from which we did notrise till late in tho morning.
During the day a large number ofprisoners were taken, and fuey kept com-ing in on the next day, until the numberin our hands amounted to seven hundred.I believe some one hundred of their deadwore buried by our men. We also tooktwo pieces of artillery. Our loss in kiil-cd and missing was about three hundred.The regiments that lost the largestnumber in these battles were the 44thand 25th N. Y. The prisoners weremostly North Carolinians, and nearlyall of them told the same story, that theywere compelled to enlist and fight iu theConfederate cause, and nearly all wishedthemselves at home again.
The following song was picked up ontho battle field. Many who used to singit now lie under the cold sod of Hanoverbattle field :
28th North Carolina Volunteers.
AIR—Dixie Land.
Away down South in tlie Land of Cotton,Times of peace are not forgotten ;
Look away, look away, look away, Dixie Land,Fur iliDU^li the cloud of war hangs o'erWe soon shall see its form no more;
Look away, look away, look away, Dixie Land.CII0BU8.
Then shout " Hurrah for Dixie!"Hurrah! Hurrah!
In Dixie Land we'll take our stand,To live and die for Dixie :
Hurrah! Hurrah!We will live and die for Dixie!
'Tis trsio their ships our ports blockade,And cruel feet our soil invade ;But when the Twenty-eighth jrets there,The scamps will run in wild despair.
When " Norman" brings his boys from" Surry "
Tin' Yankees had better move in a hurry.3 be • Invincibles" if well equippedAnd led by "Edwards" can't be whipped.
Tho Yankee rogues had better pack,When the "Stanley Hunters'' find their track.When "Lowe" shall bid his ' 'Fanner's" fire,11 is foes will reap destruction dire.
As "Barringer" leads on his ':Greys,"Full many a Vankee '11 end his days.When 'Kenyon" comes with his "Yadkin
Boys, 'He'll put an end to the Yankee's joy?.
And '•Martins' (luard.s of Independence"Il;tv.> fame for their descendants.And "Wright" with his "Cleveland Regula-

And "Speer," with his brilliant "YadkinStars,"
Will die in defense of the "Stars and Bars.'While the "Staofy Guards," by "Moody" ledWill be the Yankees' special dread.
The Twenty-Eighth is organizedWith Reeves and Lowe both highly prized,If Lane will only bo their Colonel,Then their glory will be eternal.
The above regiment fared rather harein the battles;, and was completely cut topieces. I understand that two of theofficers named were killed,-and one othem taken prisoner. The Yankee boyiwere too much for the "Yadkin boys,'and at night the .Stars and Stripes floated over the field where iu the morningthe " Stars and Bars " had bid defiance
Major WELCH and Adjutantshowed on this Occasion that they werewade of the right kind of material.—
They took the lead of the skirmishersand with them climbed fences, croseecditches, and plunged into swanipB. Theywon much praise and gained still strongeithe confidence of the men; and what ]say about them I might say of our Colonel, and Lieut. Colonel. The men wilnever be afraid of going into battle willthem.

All the plantations around hero havearge fields of wheat upon them, and in

Wo lay on tlic battle field all dayWednesday, and late on Thursday, hav-ing accomplished our object, taken pos-session of the railroad, aud destroyedthe long railroad bridge across the SouthAnna creek, we turned our faces towards:iome.
Just as we started, the Major madeiiis appearance, mounted on horseback,and with a large and beautiful bouquetattached to the pummel of his saddle,which was presented to him by a Mrs.Cater, formerly of Rochester, N. Y.,and who is a strong Unionist. The Ma-jor is a ladies' man, and carries off thepalm wherever he gees.
We found the roads in a very poorcondition on our »vny to camp, and didnot reach it until three o'clock Fridaymorning,
On tho afternoon of Friday I calledupon Capt. RANDOLPH, of the Michigan4th, and found that he had several tro-phies of the battle of Hanover. He hadappropriated to his use one of tho tentsof a Georgian regiment. He informedme that he also got a sceesh flag there,which he had sent to R. J . BAKKY ofyour place. Tho Ann Arbor boys oftho 4th are well.
Friday evening we hat] ono of the:nrc'e»l thunder storms that I over saw.It seemed as if the entiie artillery of
rth had been put into operation atcr.ee. One man in the 44th N Y. was
by a stroke of lightning which en-tered his tent.
On Saturday morning this regimentwas ordered out on picket duty. Thepos's that we guarded were along theChickahominy. On the opposite bankcould be seen the pickets of the rebels.At tho point wo were, there aro beingcieeted a nnniber of bridges. The pick-ets wero posted along the fiats adjoiningthe river; the ground is rather low, andthe guards were drowned out daring thenight, the wator from some cause orotliCi having raised and completely sub-
:• rged the flats, and this morning theywere some three feet under water.
Theic was a battle going on all dayyesterday, on the other side of the river,and it was renewed again thi3 morning.I have received no particulars, but hopewo have been victorious as usual.
