Shields, punctual to the rendezvous, had reached Front Royal on the 30th, with a brigade, before which the small Confederate garrison had retuger; it numbered about sixty thousand effective soldiers. On the 30th he gave the necessary instructions for battle on the morrow.

How grhominy, and by having finally placed him with four divisions, on the 30th, between two swamps, before a defile which a few guns had prevented accomplished fact. Indeed, by four o'clock in the afternoon on the 30th, the last wagons had reached Malvern Hill. Before sunset the entirelst the convoy, which had resumed its march since the evening of the 30th, was approaching the Harrison plantation by roads which, at times, h

the army. and making a large circuit reached the village of Iuka on the 28th, where he bivouacked. Bearing to the right, he struck the Mobile and Ohio Railway near Booneville on the night of the 29th, and waited in the woods for daylight. On the 30th, at two o'clock in the morning, learning that the town of Baldwin was fortified and well defended, he fell back upon Booneville, of which he took possession. At that very moment Beauregard was quietly evacuating the works around Corinth: the dest on that line caused the loss of five trains loaded with provisions and ammunition. Beauregard's soldiers proceeded in a southerly direction in several columns, following the roads running parallel to the Meridian Railway. At break of day on the 30th, the camp-fires were still burning, but the Confederate cavalry alone occupied he works around Corinth. The advanced sentinels, whether through forgetfulness or design, had not been relieved; and when the successive explosions of the mines const

ood—everything indicated to Pope the necessity of proceeding to Centreville, and waiting there in a strong position for the reinforcements which he could not rely upon at Manassas. He resolved, however, to renew the struggle on the morning of the 30th, upon the battle-field of the preceding day. Deceived by the statements of prisoners and the reports of his pickets, he was once more led to believe that the enemy was falling back upon Thoroughfare Gap; and being no longer able to turn his right, on one bank, sometimes on the other; it was intersected at right angles by the road from Sudeley Springs to Manassas Junction. Another road, bearing more to the west, left Sudeley to connect with the main road at Groveton. On the morning of the 30th, this road formed nearly the line of demarkation between the two armies. That of Lee, whose left under Hill was drawn up in rear of Sudeley, still occupied the salient point of the embankment which was so fiercely disputed the day before, and no

me reinforcements. Schofield took up his line of march for Sarcoxie with six thousand men. He left five thousand to guard Springfield and his long line of communication with St. Louis. After effecting a junction with Blunt and the three brigades which were already at Sarcoxie, he was able to put about ten thousand men in line. This was a smaller number than that of the enemy. His undertaking, therefore, was difficult, commencing as it did under unfavorable auspices. On the morning of the 30th, Solomon's brigade pushed a reconnaissance as far as Newtonia. His vanguard had met the enemy in force and was driven back. Solomon, having hastened to its assistance, found himself in front of a large portion of Cooper's cavalry, which was waiting for him in line of battle and on foot. After a lively engagement the Federals were finally repulsed and driven back in disorder upon Sarcoxie. Bell's brigade fortunately arrived toward evening, not in time to succor them, but at least to cover

ood this, and as soon as informed of Blair's failure he countermanded every other movement for that day. The next day, the 30th, after a night of torrents of rain, the situation of his army was still worse. It had had time to count up its losses, wh more reinforcements to expect; if he was to assume the offensive, it was essential for him to do so on the morning of the 30th, when he had but twenty-two thousand men before him. It was the easier for him to avail himself of this advantage, becauseng the night. The Federal army, therefore, was at last united and ready to assume the offensive. On the evening of the 30th, Rosecrans explained his plan of attack to his corps commanders. He had ascertained that the Confederate army lay across e's division, and placing it behind that of McCown had taken command of these two united divisions. On the evening of the 30th, therefore, the Confederate army occupied the following positions: Breckenridge on the right, on the other side of Stone R

General Banks, who had just superseded Butler in New Orleans, promised to send him two small regiments and a battery of artillery. These troops were expected at Galveston in the last days of December. Magruder determined to anticipate their arrival; the attack was at first fixed for the night of the 30th, then for the 31st, of December. On the 28th some bold partisans, acting under his instructions, destroyed the lighthouse situated at the entrance of the pass, at the point called the Peninsula of Bolivar, which faces the island of Galveston. In the mean while, a naval division conveying Governor M. Hamilton, with the reinforcements promised by Banks and the necessary provisions, had left New Orleans between the 25th and the 29th of December. Unfortunately, a portion of the ships, with o
