ns for March, 1864, show in the Department of Northern Virginia 39,407 for duty, while those for April show 52,626 for duty-this increase resulting from the return of the two divisions of Longstreet's corps (Field's and McLaw's afterwards Kershaw's) which had been at the battle of Chickamauga and afterwards on a winter campaign in East Tennessee, also of some detachments which had been on special service, and of furloughed men. These returns were made at the end of and for the whole month of April, and not on the 20th of the month as stated by General Badeau. Longstreet's two divisions had then returned and were embraced in said monthly returns, his third division being at that time in North Carolina and not afterwards rejoining the army until the 22d of May near Hanover Junction. These returns for April, 1864, which showed the condition of the troops in fact on the 1st day of May, embraced the force in the Valley which was confronting Sigel, and other outlying troops on special ser

Neither Stanton nor Grant have given any estimate of the loss of the arm was in effect destroyed; and if, according to Grant's famous remark, Butler had got himself into aving disposed of General Badeau's statement of Grant's force, I will now consider his estimate of te quote from the above-mentioned report of General Grant the following passage: General Lee's[32 more...]

acts. We feel, therefore, that we will be doing valuable service in publishing in our Papers the following letter of General Early to the London Standard in reply to General Badeau, General Grant's staff officer and biographer.] Reply of GeneralGeneral Early to the letter of General Badeau to the London standard. To a people overpowered and crushed in a struggle for their rights, there is still left one resource on earth for the vindication of their conduct and character: that adopted by E the absence of General Hunter's command, the enemy made a large detachment from their army at Richmond, which, under General Early, moved down the Shenandoah Valley, threatening Baltimore and Washington. The reinforcements from Washington and Baerformed and the conviction that the world will yet learn to do justice to our acts and motives. Very respectfully, J. A.
