is profession, is at the head of the list of assistant surgeons, and there being a vacancy, in consequence of the recent death of Surgeon Blacknall, I should be much gratified if Doctor Garnett could be promoted to it. The engines and machinery, upon which so much depended, performed much better than was expected. This is due to the intelligence, experience, and coolness of Acting Chief-Engineer Ramsey. His efforts were ably seconded by his assistants Tynan, Campbell, Herring, Jack, and White. As Mr. Ramsey is only Acting Chief-Engineer, I respectfully recommend his promotion to the rank of Chief; and would also ask that second Assistant Engineer Campbell may be promoted to First Assistant — he having performed the duties of that grade during the engagement. The forward officers, boatswain Hasker, gunner Oliver, and carpenter Lindsey, discharged well all the duties required of them. The boat-swain had charge of a gun, and fought it well. The gunner was indefatigable in his
ing, and fifteen prisoners. The Third Georgia supported the Eighth. The casualties are Lieutenant-Colonel White, commanding regiment, seriously wounded; Captain Hicks wounded; and seven men killed, s E. W. Hoyle, mortally wounded; Adjutant Maddox, Captain R. B. Hicks, Lieutenant Bellinger, Lieutenant White, and Lieutenant Wynn, slightly wounded. Enlisted men killed, thirteen; seriously wounded, efficient officer. As my Adjutant and both Orderlies were shot down in the first action, (Orderly White was killed, and Orderly Harris seriously, if not mortally, wounded,) I am unable to give theg: Privates W. J.

Taliaferro, Twenty-third Virginia, commandingin reaching its destination. I reported these facts immediately to General Winder, through Lieutenant White, Acting Aid-de-camp, and received orders, on his return, to remain where I was for a few moeinforcements. Accordingly, Captain Wilson, Assistant Adjutant-General Second brigade, and Lieutenant White, Acting Aid-de-camp, were sent in different parts of the field to insure an early interviewonsisted of Captain Wilson, Assistant Adjutant-General; Lieutenant Dabney, Aid-de-camp; and Lieutenant White, First Virginia battalion, Acting Aid-de-camp. For further particulars, the General is refound in the left thigh, about the time the battalion gave way. It may be proper to add that Lieutenant White, acting Aid-de-camp to Colonel Garnett, informed me, just as the enemy advanced from the wo
