lly. Zollicoffer, then, pointing to the Nineteenth Tennessee, said, Those are our men. Colonel Fry then started toward his regiment to stop their firing, when Major Fogg, Zollicoffer's aide, coming out of the wood at this instant, and clearly perceiving that Fry was a Federal, fired upon him, wounding his horse. Fry, riding awaZollicoffer's heart, and he fell exactly where he had stood. Zollicoffer was near-sighted, and never knew that Fry was an enemy. His delusion was complete, as Major Fogg and others had remonstrated with him about going to the front. Major Fogg was also wounded. The Nineteenth Tennessee now stood waiting for orders, without Major Fogg was also wounded. The Nineteenth Tennessee now stood waiting for orders, without firing a gun, until it was flanked and broken. In the mean time the Twenty-fifth Tennessee entered the wood without direction, and engaged the enemy. Immediately its colonel was severely wounded; and, being without support on either flank, it, too, suffered and retired. The remainder of the column had come up and taken position
e from our whole line with terrible effect, covering the ground with dead men and horses. The horses then became so restive as to be unmanageable under the fire even of our own men from their backs. The command was then taken back twenty-five rods in the rear, and were preparing to fight on foot, when darkness seting in, the command was formed in a hollow square, the men in front of their horses, and slept on their arms. We placed a picket-guard around our camp, under the charge of Sergeant-Major Fogg and Lieutenant Dayton, who promptly performed the duties assigned them; they went to the battle-field after dark to look after wounded, and for this I recommend them to your favorable consideration. I also recommend Dr. Camburn, who came promptly to the relief of the wounded, and did all he could in the darkness. Among those who distinguished themselves for personal bravery, I wish to mention Captain R. L. Wolf, who stood in front of his company and killed an Indian every shot he ma
ary nineteenth, in which he figured so conspicuously. It differs somewhat from the accounts given by the press. It was not Bailie Peyton who fired at Fry, but Lieut. Fogg, aid to Zollicoffer. Fogg was mortally wounded by Capt. Vaughn, of Fry's regiment, and has since died. Zollicoffer wore a light drab overcoat, buttoned to theFogg was mortally wounded by Capt. Vaughn, of Fry's regiment, and has since died. Zollicoffer wore a light drab overcoat, buttoned to the chin, thus concealing his military rank. He doubtless intended to deceive Col. Fry, and succeeded. Fry was in undress uniform, and, of course, was at once recognised as a Federal officer. They rode side by side several paces, so near that their knees touched, Fry all the time supposing Zollicoffer to be a Federal officer — hence his reply: I do not intend to fire upon our men. The mistake was not discovered until Fogg fired upon Fry, killing his horse. At once, Fry drew his revolver upon Zollicoffer, shooting him through the breast. Instantly he threw up his arms, fell from his horse, and expired. Zollicoffer's horse was secured by the rebels. His

Literary notices. Army life—A private's reminiscences of the civil war. By Rev. Theodore Gerrish, late a member of the Twentieth Maine. Portland: Hoyt, Fogg & Donham. We have read this book through with unflagging interest, and in the main, with great pleasure. As a vivid narrative of what a private soldier in the Army of the Potomac saw, and felt during those days of camp, march, bivouack, battlefield and hospital, it possesses great interest and value. And as long as Mr. Gerrish confines himself to what he saw, his narrative is, doubtless, accurate and valuable material for the historian who shall wish to write the inside life of that great army. But we regret that candor compels us to add, that he by no means confines himself to what he saw, but frequently goes into the land of speculation and fancy, and mars his pages by opinions utterly at variance with established facts, and many of which smack more of the bitterness of a stormy past, than of the era of good feeling b

ck Johnson." When our forces reached their breastworks, Gen. Crittenden concluded to fall back to the south side of the river. The little steamer which had lately arrived was taken charge of by Capt. Spiller. Our infantry were safely transported across, under the fire of the enemy's batteries, posted on the heights above. We lost the greater portion of our cavalry horses, tents and munitions. Gen. Carroll now has command of the division. Two of General Zollicoffer's aids--Major Fogg and Maj. Sheilds--were badly wounded. Whether the enemy had crossed the Cumberland river we are not advised; but our forces expected they would do so. General Carroll is reported as making a valiant stand against them. General Crittenden and all his staff are safe. General Carroll and staff are safe. Our loss is reported to be 300 killed. The enemy's loss is supposed to be twice the number. General Crittenden ordered the advance at 11 o'clock Saturday night, supposing
Death of Major food. --The Nashville Republican and Banner, of the 20th ult., says: The citizens of Nashville were shocked last Sunday morning, on receiving the unexpected tidings of the death of Major Fogg, wounded in the late engagement at Mill Spring. It had been generally understood that his wound was not serious, though helpful, and that he was doing well. He had been conveyed from the battle field, over the mountains, near Sparta, in White county, where he breathed his last on President evening. The Potomac were brought to Nashville on Sunday afternoon, an amends assembled to receive them, in tributary homage to the decreed.
