nty-third North Carolina; Colonel Pickens, Twelfth Alabama; Lieutenant-Colonel J. N. Lea, Fifth North Carolina; Lieutenant-Colonel Hobson, Fifth Alabama, severely wounded; Colonel Garrett, of the Fifth North Carolina, (who had behaved most gallantlyured a considerable number of prisoners. Captain W. T. Renfro, commanding the right wing of the Fifth Alabama, after Colonel Hobson had been wounded, brought in two hundred and twenty-five, and Colonel Lightfoot, of the Sixth Alabama, one hundred ankauer; the Twenty-sixth, under Lieutenant-Colonel Garvin and Major Bryan, and the Fifth, under Colonel Hall and Lieutenant-Colonel Hobson--moved in line of battle with this regiment, and, although passing through a dense and tangled forest for a milhibiting the greatest coolness and daring, cheering on their men by both voice and example. In this charge, Lieutenant Colonel E. L. Hobson was wounded, while gallantly rushing in front of his men, near the enemy's second line of works. Major Brya
icers of the detachments from the various regiments engaged mention, in their reports, as deserving special attention: In the Fifth, private Wm. J. Haynes, company F, badly wounded; private A. R. Harwood, company E; private Henry Wooding, company C, especially commended, seized the colors when the horse of the color-bearer was shot, and carried them bravely through the fight; Sergeants Morecock and Ratcliffe, and private George James, company H. In the Fourth, Captains Newton and Old, Lieutenant Hobson and Adjutant Fontaine, seriously wounded. Sergeant Kimborough, of company G, deserves particular notice: wounded early in the day, he refused to leave the field. In the last charge, he was the first to spring to the ground to open the fence; then dashing on at the head of the column, he was twice sabred over the head, his arm shattered by a bullet, captured and carried over the river, when he escaped and walked back, twelve miles, to his camp. Lieutenant-Colonel Payne, commanding, a
ed, may be repaired in a short time. In conclusion, whilst I feel it my duty to mention the disgraceful conduct of the Thirty-first North Carolina infantry, I am proud to bear testimony to the efficiency and gallantry of the other troops. Colonel McKeatchin's regiment, Fifty-fist North Carolina infantry, redeemed the reputation of the Thirty-first regiment. They gallantly sought their positions under a heavy shelling, and maintained it during the action. Colonel McKeatchin, Lieutenant-Colonel Hobson, and Major McDonald, are the field-officers of this regiment, and deserve special mention. The Charleston battalion distinguished themselves, not only by their gallantry, but by their discipline, and cool performance of their duty, and obedience to orders under the excitement and confusion always incident to a night attack. Lieutenant-Colonel Gaillard, and the brave Major Ramsay, who, I regret to say, was severely wounded, deserve the highest expression of commendation for th
-first Arkansas, and McDonald, Fortieth Mississippi. Many of my ablest and most gallant field officers are wounded, several mortally. Of this number are Colonels Erwin, Sixth Missouri infantry; Macfarland, Fourth Missouri infantry; Pritchard, Third Missouri infantry; Moore, Forty-third Mississippi, and McLean, Thirty-seventh Mississippi; Lieutenant-Colonels Pixler, Sixteenth Arkansas; Hedgespeth, Sixth Missouri infantry; Serrell, Seventh Mississippi battalion; Lanier, Forty-second Alabama; Hobson, Third Arkansas cavalry; Matthews, Twenty-first Arkansas; Campbell, Fortieth Mississippi, and Boone; and Majors Senteney, Second Missouri infantry; Keirn, Thirty-eighth Mississippi; Staton, Thirty-seventh Alabama; Timmins, Second Texas; Jones, Twenty-first Arkansas; Russell, Third Louisiana, and Yates; and McQuiddy, Third Missouri cavalry. For other casualties in officers and men, I beg leave to refer to lists enclosed. I cannot close this report without recognizing the eminent services an
