e strength of the enemy is variously estimated at from fifty-five thousand to seventy thousand by prisoners and deserters. The better informed, however, place their numbers at fifty-five to sixty thousand, which corresponds with estimates furnished by our scouts. We have in front Hood's and Hardee's corps, with about twenty thousand of Polk's army commanded by the Parson in person. Among the General officers holding commands, are Johnston, Hardee, Hood, Stevenson, Pat Cleburne and Gibson, Bates and Polk. Major Landgraeber's report. Report of the battalion of artillery of the First division, Fifteenth army corps, under command of Major C. Landgraeber, Second Missouri artillery and Chief of Artillery, of the part taken in the battle of Resacca, Georgia: The First division of the Fifteenth army corps marched on the morning of the thirteenth of May, 1864, from Snake Creek Gap, with a line of skirmishers in front, in the direction of Resacca. Battery F, Second regiment ar
ld behind the Fifteenth Corps. A storm was gathering — where should it break? The question was not long unanswered. Minor attempts were made along almost the whole of Logan's line, but in front of General Sweeny's division was the main force. Bates' division of Hardee's corpse was hurled against Sweeny's division, which at that time presented a front of two regiments and one portion of a battery. The immortal Second Iowa, and the younger, but not less gallant Sixty-sixth Indiana, with two d the Eighty-first to retain its position, and the gallant boys of the Sixty-sixth Indiana retired disappointed. The loss of the enemy could not be ascertained; the intervening ground being contraband. A deserter who came in to-day, says that Bates' division was terribly cut up in that night attack, which, he says, was made under a misunderstanding of orders. For some reason, it was determined to change the position of McPherson and Davis' divisions of the Fourteenth Corps. The orders w
anion-division on the left. Parts of the brigades of Tyler and Owen gained the rebel works, but for reasons identical with those that forced back Barlow's troops, they also were compelled to give up what they had won. Gibbon's division, too, lost very heavily. General Tyler, before reaching the works, was carried off the field, shot in the ankle. One of his regimental commanders, Colonel Porter, of the Eighth New York Heavy Artillery, was killed; immediately after, the Lieutenant-Colonel (Bates) fell dead. Another of his regimental commanders, Colonel McMahon, of the One Hundred and Sixty-fourth New York, was struck while planting his colors on the rebel works, and was left a prisoner in the enemy's hands — his troops not supporting him after he was wounded. Owen's brigade lost two entire companies, taken prisoners inside of the enemy's intrenchments. In giving way, Gibbon's division also was far from losing all the ground it had gained. It took up an advanced position close to

The commanding officer on Morris Island will be duty noticed of the fact of their presence in the shelled district, and if his batteries still continue their wanton and hazardous work, it will be at the peril of the captive officers.
t it seemed eventually only for the purpose of strengthening their wings. A large body of their forces left Big Shanty about ten o'clock in the morning and marched in battle order on our left. Some two hours later they accidentally discovered Gen. Bates's position, which was some distance beyond our main line, and a heavy fight soon raged in the woods where our forces were posted. The rear of the Yankee column was hurried up, and the fight continued about an hour, when the enemy retired. This movement, we presume, was necessitated by the appearance on Gen. Cleburne's command coming to Bates's support. Large bodies of the enemy continued to pour out from their centre, and at a point about two miles from our lines, separated to the right and left. A heavy skirmish commenced about noon on our right. The enemy advanced a strong line of skirmishes half way across a large field, where the deadened limber furnished them a good shelter, but after an hours' sharp skirmishing they re
