Lt. Col. Hall

The Chicago Papers of Monday announced that Col. Hall was wounded at the recent battle, and we have so stated in the list of wounded published on the second page. On the contrary, an officer who arrived on the eastern train yesterday morning, and who was at the battle, stated that he left Col. Hall and wife, who is with her husband, both well. He also states that Col. Chambers has only a flesh wound in the arm, and Lt. Col. Sanders and Maj. Purcell are both safe, as is Capt. Van Hosen.
