k, the enemy moved forward along the entire front of the Twenty-fourth. I fired by rank, and rapidly, and the movement was checked. But on the west side of the railroad the firing was heavy and the fighting continuous, and I soon saw that the position on that side had been carried—the enemy occupying the works. Unfortunately the battalion of sharp-shooters was retired just at this moment, without orders from brigade headquarters, and the enemy promptly moved up on our side and occupied Whitley's works, and fired wildly over my left, now protected by my traverses. During this fire Hill was killed, and many of our men wounded. An assault being made from the front, Companies B, Lieutenant Easterling, G, Lieutenant Beckham, and K, Lieutenant Siegler, were driven from my left, after a gallant stand.

From Washington. Washington, Jan. 20. --The minority report of the Committee of Thirty-Three, which is signed by Taylor of Louisiana, Phelps of Missouri, Rust of Arkansas, Whitley of Delaware, and Winslow of North Carolina, embraces, in substance, the following: that the changes which have taken place in the situation and sentiments of the people of the different States since the formation of the Constitution have been such that through the misconstruction of some of its provisions, and the willful perversion of others, and the introduction of new principles in forming parties which are in direct antagonism with the usages and opinions of the whole American people when the Constitution went into effect, that instrument has ceased to accomplish some of the most important ends aimed at by its adoption. The difference between the Northern and Southern sections of the Confederacy from this cause has at last risen to such a height that they have resulted in the formation of a se
