urphy, 8th Wisconsin, Rosecrans moved castward with Stanley's division to his old encampment at Clear creek. se move on Iuka from the north; while Rosecrans, with Stanley's, was to rejoin his remaining division, under Hami only to be abandoned in their flight from Iuka. Stanley's division had meantime come up, pushing forward ths, expecting to renew the struggle next morning; Gen. Stanley himself being at the front, along with Brig.-Gens of Hamilton's two brigades; but not a regiment of Stanley's division, save the 11th Missouri, had been enableer, to Corinth; while Rosecrans — having first sent Stanley's division into Iuka and found it abandoned — turned down until its left touched Davies's right; while Stanley, moving northward and eastward, was to stand in clowhich compelled Davies to give ground and call upon Stanley for aid, when night compelled a pause in the engagement; Col. Mower, with one of Stanley's brigades, having just come into tie fight; while Hamilton, working his

Julius P. Garesche--an officer of rare capacity and merit — was placed at tile head of his staff, with Capt. J. St. Clair Morton as Chiefe capture of a number of our wagons and at least 150 men; Lt. Beals and 20 men of the 4th Michigan cavalry had been picked up Nov. 13. near Stone river; but Gen. Stanley, reporting for duty about this time, soon drove the Rebel raiders from our rear; and, in several partisan affairs occurring directly afterward, the advantage wtermined spirit, and driven off, with a loss of 100 to our 40. Matthews returned in triumph, bringing in his train ; and was publicly thanked by Rosecrans. Gen. Stanley, having received and distributed among his best horsemen some 2,000 revolving rifles, resolved to test their efficiency. Pushing down the turnpike leading to

Every movement directed, though impeded and sistiana, on the road from Murfreesboroa to Shelbyville, where he was joined by Stanley; advancing June 27. thence on Guy's gap, covering Shelbyville, which was atll back, as though they had been covering a retreat. Granger at once directed Stanley to advance his cavalry and clear the gap, which was quickly done; the Rebels med by infantry. It was now 6 P. M., and, Granger having his infantry well up, Stanley again charged, and in half an hour Shelbyville was ours, with three excellent o Stevenson and thence to Bridgeport; McCook's corps moving on its right, with Stanley's cavalry thrown far out on that flank; while Crittenden's corps, on our left,is front; and these, with Vandever's brigade of Brannan's division and part of Stanley's of Wood's division, completely restored the battle on this flank, hurling ba
elled by reenforcements from below. The place was evacuated, by order from Vicksburg, soon afterward. Gen. Jo. Johnston, commanding in northern Georgia, having dispatched two divisions of Hardee's corps, under Stewart and Anderson, to the aid of Polk in Mississippi, Gen. Grant, still commanding at Chattanooga, sent forward Feb. 22. the 14th corps, under Gen. Palmer, to counteract this diversion. The divisions of Jeff. C. Davis, Johnson, and Baird, moved on the direct road to Dalton; Stanley's division, under Gen. Crufts, moving from Cleveland on our left, and forming a junction with Palmer just below Ringgold. The advance was resisted, but not seriously, at Tunnel Hill and at Rocky-Face ridge; whence Palmer pressed forward, against continually increasing resistance, to within two miles of Dalton ; where, hearing that the two Rebel divisions which were sent south had been brought back, and that all Johnston's (late Bragg's) army was on his hands, he fell back to Tunnel Hill, a

The Army of the Tennessee was now sovan with most of his brigade and two 4-gun batteries. Orders were repeatedly sent to hurry up Stanley and Schofield; but tile ground was difficult and the roads bad, so that they were not up in seard was impelled westward to Snake creek gap, where he was to skirmish and hold the enemy, while Stanley, with the 4th and 14th corps, moved from Tilton on Villanow, with intent to gain Hood's rear. o Howard encountered no solid resistance at the gap, but had pressed through it by noon, before Stanley had time to gain its rear. Our army was then directed on Lafayette, expecting thus to get intortake, and who might be able to lead him a profitless wild-goose-chase for months. He detached Stanley, with his (4th) corps, and Schofield, with the 23d, with orders to march to Chattanooga, and th

Schofield, 10,000; and 8,000 cavere his corps was concentrated, Nov. 24. as was most of Stanley's; while Gen. Granger withdrew the garrisons from Athens (g that the Rebels had crossed six miles above, directed Gen. Stanley to follow his trains to Spring Hill; where he arrived jlin. by two divisions of his own and all three of the 4th (Stanley's) corps — the whole reported at 17,000, and certainly notse, two brigades of the 2d (Wagner's) division of the 4th (Stanley's) corps were thrown out in our front, holding some slightwhere they were more especially confronted and repelled by Stanley's 1st division, Gen.
