t of the battle of the 20th of July. I, therefore, cannot hope to do justice to the regimental commanders and others during that time from my own observation, but must leave their actions to speak for them; and I am under many obligations to Colonel Blake for the manner in which he commanded the brigade during my absence. In the posi.-tion above given, having one regiment, Twenty-sixth Ohio, in reserve, the brigade remained during the investment of Atlanta, working almost continually on thein; aggregate, 891. Losses from expiration of term of service, 2 officers and 40 enlisted men; aggregate, 42. Strength of brigade on arriving at Atlanta, 75 officers and 940 enlisted men; aggregate, 1,015.

.--With commendable alacrity the guns of Fort Johnson, battery Simkins, Fort Moultrie, and the steamer Chicora, opened upon the barges, and simultaneously the infantry, judiciously posted within the fort, poured into the crowded boats of the assailants a rapid and spirited fire of musketry.
