avy artillery fire from batteries which were taken by Hood's brigade. While under the eminence on which they were posted, I was forming for attack the few men, not more than one hundred, remaining with me. I remained on the field during the night, and the next morning was spent in burying the dead and attending the wounded. My loss in this action was forty-nine killed and two hundred and seventy-one wounded, making the total loss in the two battles five hundred and forty-two, besides Corporal Trezevant, of the Hampton Legion, in command of my couriers, killed, and James L. Crittenden, volunteer Aid, wounded. All the field officers of the Nineteenth Georgia, First and Seventh Tennessee regiments, and the two senior captains successively in command of the Fifth Alabama battalion, were killed or wounded.

An exterior sand-bag revetement to the gorge-wall was ordered, as well as a series of traverses in barbette on the east, south, and northeast faces, and many changes and removals in the armament. During the 4th of August but little firing occurred on either side. Orders were given to re-arrange certain guns in the batteries and lines on James Island. Major Trezevant, Commandant of the Charleston Arsenal, was requested to collect all the old iron in the burnt districts of the city, to be cast into projectiles. Orders were given to Brigadier-General Ripley to arrange with Captain Tucker of the navy for an attempt to capture the enemy's pickets in the Marsh Battery, near Vincent's Creek. On the 5th the guns in Battery Wagner were all in fighting order. Our sharp-shooters, armed with Whitworth rifles, seemed to annoy the enemy greatly, who endeavo

The House is now composed. Wiltz, as Speaker, invites General De Trobriand to remove the police, who occupy doors and passages, and General te to you in formal words, replies the Speaker, that this House, duly elected, has organised itself, by electing me as Speaker, Captain Floyd as Serjeant, and Mr. Trezevant as Clerk. After organization, we have seated five members, whose cases are referred to us by the Returning Board. Will you eject these men? My duty as a no authority in this Chamber, interposes Wiltz. For him to meddle in the public business of this assembly is an outrage. Vigers was Clerk of the former House; Trezevant is now our Clerk. Call the roll! roars De Trobriand, on which Vigers gets up, and begins to read. Conservative members will not answer to their names,
