Jennings, to relieve the battalion Fourth Michigan on Jefferson pike. Monday, Dec. 29.--The army again advanced — the Seventh Pennsylvania, under Major Wyncoop, on ut of which they had driven a large force of the enemy's cavalry. They were supported by a portion of the First Middle Tennessee cavalry, also dismounted, Capt. Jennings's battalion of the Seventh Pennsylvania, and two companies of Third Kentucky, under Capt. Davis, were posted in the woods near and to the right of the Fourth nst the line in front of our left — he routed the enemy and captured one stand of colors, which was brought in by a sergeant of the Fifteenth Pennsylvania. Capt. Jennings, of the Seventh Pennsylvania, with his battalion, supported this movement. At the same time I charged the first line in our front with the Fourth Michigan an

, I instantly prepared to take its place, but just before it reached my lines, to my utter amazement, a mass of the enemy appeared moving obliquely upon my right; a change of front was imperative. Whilst executing this movement, refusing my right to the enemy, the First Ohio passed through the right of my regiment and threw into great confusion my four right companies. Their officers promptly arrested this, and I here take occasion to thank Capt. John Lucas, commanding company F, First Lieut. Thomas Forman, commanding company A, First Lieutenant Joseph E. Miller, commanding company D, and Second Lieut. A. Sidney Smith, commanding company I, for their steadiness at this trying moment. In the mean time my left, getting into position, poured its fire into the steadily advancing columns of the enemy, but the troops to my left were giving way and the enemy, getting a battery into position, almost enfiladed me. The right of the division was completely crushed in, and I had no connection,

their regiment firm and steady under a heavy fire. For officers young in the service, their efforts are worthy of imitation. Captain W. Taggert, who succeeded to the command of the Twenty-fifth Illinois regiment, behaved as a soldier should everywhere — efficient and ever ready to execute orders. First Sergeant of the Eighth Wisconsin battery merits much praise for the cool, skilful, and determined manner he served his battery after he succeeded to the command. To my staff--Captain George Austin, A. A.A. G., Captain A. C. Keyes, Lieutenant C. P. Ford, Lieutenant John F. Isom, Lieutenant W. R. McChesney, and Lieutenant H. S. Parks--I owe especial thanks for the manner they served upon the field, conveying my orders wherever required through a hail-storm of shot, shells, and bullets, regardless of all save the performance of their duty. During the conflict, it being necessary, in the absence of staff-officers on duty, to make use of orderlies to supply their places, in connec

. The enemy held a dense wood about three hundred yards in front of us, on the edge of which were some cabins, occupied by sharp-shooters. I proposed to push forward my skirmishers and dislodge them, provided those on my right and left were simultaneously advanced. This, though ordered, was not done, and I did not deem it safe to expose my flanks. But toward evening the fire of the riflemen became so annoying that it was determined to stop it at any cost. I ordered Captains Hurley and Lindenfelser to move with their companies directly upon the houses and burn them. Across the open fields they dashed, the enemy having every advantage in point of shelter. Capt. Huston was then ordered to their support, and the place was literally carried by assault, the houses burned, and five of the enemy left dead upon the spot. This was the last we heard of the sharp-shooters. The daring displayed by both officers and men deserves especial consideration. But one of my men was hurt, Corporal M
