We learn from a private letter that Capt. Hutchcraft was wounded in the arm severely; Capt. Blackman in the back slightly; and Capt. Day in the hip. Lieutenants Perryman, Hamilton and Fisk were killed, and J. Monroe Reid wounded in neck slightly. Twenty-five privates were killed.
Col. Reid, Dewey and Belknap arrived at Cairo on the 12th and are probably on the way up.
