s report. headquarters, Cynthiana, Ky., July 24. Capt. John Boyle, Assistant Adjutant-General for the District of Kentucky, Louisville: on Thursday, the seventeenth instant, about three o'clock P. M., I was attacked at this place by the forces under command of Col. John H. Morgan, comprising three regiments, composed of Kentuckians, Tennesseeans, Georgians, Mississippians, Texans, and South-Carolinians, estimated variously at from fifteen hundred to three thousand men; reported by Capt. Austin, his Adjutant-General, at twenty-two hundred strong and two pieces of artillery. The force under my command was composed of about fifteen men of the Eighteenth Kentucky volunteers, and the following Home Guards: about sixty men under Capt. J. B. McClintock, and from fifty to sixty men under Captain Lafe Wilson, from Cynthiana and vicinity; Capt. John S. Arthur, of Newport, fifty men; Capt. J. J. Wright, of Cincinnati, forty men; Capt. Pepper, of Bracken County, thirty-five men; seventy
on the right and left, who cleared the woods of the enemy's sharp-shooters. While thus engaged, and about an hour after the commencement, the Colonel commanding was mortally wounded and borne from the field. The command then devolved upon Lieut.-Col. Austin, of the Seventy-eighth New-York volunteers, who remained in command during the day. About an hour and a half after this time orders were received to with-draw the brigade from the field, and the line was shortly after re-formed about half a handed over to me till late in the evening. I deem it just, however, to make honorable mention of the coolness and bravery of officers and men in action, especially of the true soldierly bearing of Col. Goodrich, the daring and courage of Lieut.-Col. Austin, and the valuable service of Capt. Redington, of the Sixtieth New-York, and First Lieutenant McGregor, of the Seventy-eighth New-York, the two last having charge of the skirmishers. Respectfully submitted. Charles R. Brundage, Lieutenan
