f the troops were withdrawn to their original positions, others remained on the open field, and some rested within a hundred yards of the batteries they had so bravely but vainly assailed. The general conduct of the troops was excellent; in some instances heroic. The lateness of the hour at which the attack necessarily began, gave the enemy the full advantage of his superior position, and augmented the natural difficulties of our own. After seizing the York River Railroad on the twenty-eighth of June, and driving the enemy across the Chickahominy, as already narrated, the cavalry under General Stuart proceeded down the railroad to ascertain if there was any movement of the enemy in that direction.

I therefore concluded to move immediately against Port Hudson, and to take my chances for the reduction of that post. To avoid mistake, I directed Brigadier-General William Dwight to report our condition to General Grant in person, and on the Mississippi, which were defended by a garrison of two hundred and twenty-five men, including convalescents, commanded by Major J.
