Article Text: List of Killed, Wounded and Missing in the 151st N.Y.S.V. in the Battle of Monocacy Junction, on Saturday, July 9th, 1864. The following sad list of the killed, wounded and missing of the 151st N.Y.S.V., in the recent fight at Monocacy Junction, we extract from the Baltimore 'American.' It is a fearful list, and we are sorry to recognize so many familiar names. There appears to be a great mystery in regard to the fate of our neighbor Sergeant Bowers, who it seems had his leg shattered by a cannon ball, and from one report was cared for in one of the hospitals at Baltimore, where his leg was amputated, but a rumor is in circulation that he has since died of his wounds. In the absence of any positive proof of his death we hope for the best. In the annexed list, it will be seen that he I classed among the "missing." We are glad that our esteemed friend Lieut. Col. Fay, who was wounded in the thigh, has so far recovered as to resume his position in the regiment. On hearing of his son's wound, Dr. Fay immediately repaired to Baltimore to attend him. Few regiments have suffered more than the 151st, as it will be recollected they were always at the front in Grant's bloody march to Richmond, and in the more recent struggles before Petersburg their ranks have been almost decimated.- Capt. McMannis, in a recent letter to us, writes that out of his command which left Batavia, one hundred strong, but twenty months ago, he has only six men left. - Verily, when will this slaughter cease?

Willett, of the 8th N.Y. Artillery, who was dangerously wounded before Petersburg. This meritorious officer richly deserves the post and honors of Colonel to which he has just been promoted. * Enrollment for the Draft. The Board of Enrollment will hear applications to be stricken from the roll, at Batavia, July 25th and 26th, and at Warsaw, August 2d and 3d. * Effect of the War. - The sad effects this Abolition war is causing is fully illustrated in the recent attempt at suicide of Mr. James Crocker, of Le Roy, who on Friday last, when under the excitement of learning of the death of his son in the battle of Monocacy, cut his throat with a knife. It seems he had wandered to the village of Churchville, where he commited the rash act. Hopes are entertained of his recovery. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ IMPORTANT: To stop receiving these notifications, you need to know if you are receiving them through a mailing list or if you subscribed through the Newspaper Abstracts website.
