f it is successful, as I think it will be, it will bring us to the last act of the Richmond drama, which I trust will have but few scenes in it, and will end fortunately and victoriously for us. Both George Son of General Meade. and myself are quite well, though the heat, hard service, bad water, and swampy regions are beginning to tell on the health of the army. I send you an excellent picture of Sedgwick. field of battle near Petersburg, Headquarters Second Army Corps, 12 M., June 17, 1864. I have not written you for several days, as we have been moving, our mail facilities for the time being interrupted. Our march from Cold Harbor to this place has been most successful, including, as it has done, the crossing of two streams, the Chickahominy and the James, over the former of which a bridge of one thousand seven hundred feet had to be thrown, and over the James one of two thousand feet, in eighty-five feet of water—an exploit in military bridge building that has never

ully, your obedient servant, G. T. Beauregard, Genl. Parish of Saint James, Louisiana, Feb. 21st, 1874. To Genl. G. T. Beauregard, New Orleans: My dear General,—I take pleasure in forwarding to you, as I had promised I would, the following narration of an incident of the siege of Petersburg, which, from the circumstances of the case, may not be altogether useless to you, as an additional leaf to what is left of your valuable notes about the war. I remember that on or about the 17th of June, 1864, pending the heroic, and to me Providential, defence of Petersburg (the immediate result of which, front the battle of Drury's Bluff to that time, was the saving of Richmond), some forty or fifty prisoners were brought to me, for the purpose, as usual, of being examined as to the name of their particular commands, their precise location, their aggregate number, and the time of their arrival in our front. These examinations, as you know, formed part of my general duties as Inspector
