The casualties in the Second Army Corps, during the great battle of Gettysburg, were 4,413, nearly 44 per cent, of all engaged. The Artillery Brigade, consisting of only five batteries, lost 150 men and 200 horses, besides three of the battery commanders killed and one wounded. The prisoners captured by the corps numbered 4,500, and 38 stands of colors were taken. THE FIELD OF GETTYSBDRG. The battle of Gettysburg ranks among the grand- est of modern times. Not only were the largest armies known... to modern warfare engaged in the struggle during parts of the three different days, but the generalship, the courage, the determination, and the endurance, on both sides, were extraordinary in the history of battles. What might have hap- pened had this conflict been fought out on the line originally designed by General Meade, it is, of course, impracticable to say ; but that it was fought, and resulted in a complete victory, on the plan conceived by General Hancock, and mainly under his personal direction, displays the highest order of generalship in that officer.
