division, the Thirteenth Georgia, Colonel J. M. Smith commanding, being the extreme right, and successively towards the left the Sixtieth Georgia, (Colonel W. H. Stiles,) Sixty-first Georgia, (Colonel J. H. Lamar,) Thirty-eighth Georgia, (Captain William McLeod,) Thirty-first Georgia, (Colonel C. A. Evans,) and the Twenty-sixth Georgia, (Captain Grace,) being six regiments, numbering about two thousand rank and file. While thus resting in line the shells of the enemy fell upon the regiments on ain. Here Captain Grace was directed to halt his command, and not advance into the open field. The remaining four regiments, consisting of the Sixtieth Georgia, (Colonel Stiles,) Sixty-first Georgia, (Colonel Lamar,) Thirty-eighth Georgia, (Captain McLeod,) and Thirty-first Georgia, (Colonel Evans,) pushing ahead, came upon the enemy in a minute of time after they were first encountered by Captain Grace, receiving their fire without producing scarcely a perceptible check, fired in return, and,

The officers and men were all eagerly anxious to play a part in the engagement, and we only regret that our position was such as to prevent our having a more prominent place in an engagement which does so much credit to all concerned. I am, Colonel, very respectfully, A. D. Frederick, Colonel Second Regiment S. C. Artillery, commanding. Upon this was the following indorsement: headquarters James Island and St. Andrews, McLeod's, April 14, 1863. Respectfully forwarded. I reached Fort Johnson some twenty minutes after the engagement between the monitors and the forts and batteries had commenced, on the seventh instant, and, finding that the mortar at Fort Johnson was not effective, the range being too great, ordered the firing discontinued after two shells had been thrown. Battery Glover was not engaged at any time. Respectfully, S. R. Gist, Brigadier-General. Action of April Seventh, Charleston harbor
