Arriving at this point, by order, we bivouacked for the night on the farther side of the road. A list of casualties is herewith submitted. They are slight, considering the severe fire which incessantly prevailed during our operations. The spirit of the men was all that could have been desired ; and had opportunity offered, they would have achieved honor for themselves and rendered efficient service to their country. I desire to direct attention to the conduct of Lieutenant II. C. Johnston, of the Third Alabama regiment, who reported to me while we were advancing to the Quaker road; he was separated from his regiment, and requested to serve with me through the fight. I gladly consented, and do now take pleasure in testifying to his gallantry and efficiency in the field. He remained with me throughout the fight. The gallant conduct of Corporal Blakely, already mentioned, is deserving of special praise and consideration. I desire, in conclusion, to explain the falling o

like the roaring of a lion, and evidently enforcing each word with rapid gestures of his heavy blade. He is eminently worthy the post he fills, and with Barton, Manning, Mattison, and Sommes around him, seems the holdest Roman of them all. Yet if he posseses more rim than the cool and calculating Barton (Lieut. Col.) it is only because of his capacity to contain it. Though as yet we have had no "regular set-to," we have had opportunities of testing the metal of the Arkansas 3d, which Cols. C. Johnston, Scott, and others of no less note, pronounced "true blue." and fitted to any emergency, not superhuman. An expedition undertaken on the 16th ultimo; (and as for as accomplished) by 12,000 men under the command of Col. Rust, at any other time than this — when impossibilities fade beneath the touch of man — would forever hold in remembrance of generations yet unborn the names of brave men who dared to follow a lion hearted leader on probably the most perilous expes ition since that
