devotion to duty. So many, indeed, as to preclude the possibility of my referring to each in the body of this report; attention is therefore respectfully invited to the appendix, and to the reports of division, brigade, and other commanders. I cannot close, however, without expressing my especial thanks to Major-Generals C. S. Stevenson, J. H. Forney, and M. L. Smith, and to Brigadier-Generals Barton, Cummings, Lee, and Colonel A. W. Reynolds, of General Stevenson's division. To Major-General Forney's brigade commanders, Brigadier-Generals Hebert and Moore; to Major-General M. L. Smith's brigade commanders, Brigadier-Generals Shoupe, Baldwin, and Vaughn; to Colonels Gates, Dockery, and Cockrell, of Bowen's division, and to Colonel Higgins, commanding the river batteries, and to Colonel Waul, commanding Texas Legion. If the most unremitting attention to the arduous duties of their position, entitle officers to commendation and respect, they have each and all won it during the pro

nder, on the peril of their lives. Bewildered by this audacity and boldness, they obeyed, when Stuart, filing them off through the gap in the fence, soon had them surrounded by his troopers, his prize proving to be 49 men, nearly an entire company of the Fifteenth Pennsylvania volunteers, from the right of Patterson's line of battle. On the 10th of July, President Davis wrote to Johnston that he was trying, by every means at his command, to reinforce him; that he expected to send off Colonel Forney's regiment the next morning, and others as fast as railway transportation could be secured. On the 13th he gave notice that another regiment, fully equipped, was sent him that day; that he could get 20,000 men from Mississippi, if they could be armed, and that he had numerous tenders of troops from Georgia, but he had to answer all that he had no arms to spare them. The lower valley of the Shenandoah (the northeastern part of Virginia's unfailing storehouse for supplying Confederate

Then Stuart ordered forward his right wing, and the Alabama regiment rushed with a shout in a storm of bullets. Colonel Forney fell wounded, and Lieut.-Col. J. B. Martin was killed. The other regiments also pushed forward, and a stubborn fight resulted. When the action had lasted about two hours, Stuart reported, I found that the enemy, being already in force large

; Vaughn's brigade occupied the Big Black River Bridge; Smith's and Forney's divisions did garrison-duty at Vicksburg, Haines' Bluff, and Warr. The assaults of the 19th had been repulsed solely by Smith's and Forney's troops, which had not left Vicksburg during the whole campaign. rigade of Smith's division defended the bastion, while a brigade of Forney's division was posted on the right of the road. At ten o'clock pree, they become engaged in a useless musketry-duel with a portion of Forney's division. Finally, the boldest among them rush upon the parapet,dragging a number of their comrades after them. But at this moment Forney receives a timely reinforcement. Bowen has sent him two brigades, h we have already spoken, and which Ransom led against the right of Forney's division, took place a little later. McClernand formed the lefdan situated on the Jackson road, which was guarded by a portion of Forney's division. On the 25th of June, at half-past 3 o'clock in the aft
