Harris commanding,71 men. Company H, Capt. Pilcher commanding,69 men. Company E, Capt. Foster commanding,46 men. Company G, Lieut. Morey commanding,60 men.   Total of Seventy-fifth Ohio engaged,444 men. I have not yet ascertained the numbers engaged in the Twenty-fifth Ohio, but have been informed by Lieut.-Col. Richardson that his nine companies were incomplete. He will report, himself, the exact number in the action. The enemy were in po

Wood, with verbal instructions to carry out its provisions: headquarters, Huntsvrders for the details and precautionary instructions as the case may seem to you to require. James B.

On the thirteenth instant the force at Murfreesboro, under command of Brigadier-General t for two hours, and repulsed in the most signal manner. Such is the conduct that duty and honor demand of every soldier; and this example is worthy of imitation by higher officers and larger commands. By command of Major-General Buell. James B.

For some days previous to the engagement, our scouts had been scouring the country, and so effectual had their labors proved that they had filled Mu

pardize the safety of an army. If these appeals to their personal and professional pride should fail of their object, he warns them that the extreme penalty of the law must intervene to punish the guilty, and save the army from the jeopardy in which they place it. The duty of guarding the communications of the army is among the most important with which an officer and his troops can be intrusted. Vigilance, determination, and the preparation of suitable defences, in the way of intrenchments or stockades, will prevent such attacks, or enable a small force to repel a greatly superior one. Had the orders for bridge-guards to fortify their posts been promptly executed, and proper vigilance been observed, the attacks referred to, if made at all, would have had very different results. This order and General Order No. 32 will be read at the head of every company and detachment. By command of Major-General Buell. James B. Fry, Colonel and Chief of Staff. J. M. Wright, A. A. G.
Doc. 187.-the fight at Gallatin, Tenn. Brigadier-General Johnson's report. Hartsville, Tenn., August 22, 1862. Colonel J. B. Fry, A. A.G., Chief of Staff, Huntsville, Ala.: I have the honor to report that on the eleventh instant, I left McMinnville, Tenn., in command of three regiments of infantry, one battery of artillery, and six hundred and forty cavalry, taken from the Second Indiana, Lieut.-Col. Stewart; Fourth Kentucky, Captain Chillson; Fifth Kentucky, Major Winfrey, and Seventh Pennsylvania, Colonel Wynkoop. With this force I marched to Smithfield, where I was joined by two additional regiments of infantry. With this command I proceeded to Liberty. Here I received an order recalling my infantry and artillery, and I sent them back to McMinnville. Hearing that the enemy, under Col. Morgan, was encamped in an old field in the angle formed by the Cumberland and Craney Fork, with my cavalry I marched to the point designated, and found that I had been incorrectly
and Junction road and near our lines. Col. Force, of the Twentieth Ohio, having received information that a small rebel force was menacing our pickets, very properly took the responsibility, in my absence, of sending out two companies, under Major Fry of his command, to guard the lines and feel of the enemy. On arriving at my headquarters, I immediately sent forty-five of my mounted infantry to support the two companies sent out by Col. Force, and followed as rapidly as possible with the baried back. Several fought after they were wounded, until the loss of blood rendered them unable to stand. It would be unjust, however, not to name Col. M. F. Force, of the Twentieth Ohio, whose coolness and courage inspired all who saw him. Major Fry, of the Twentieth Ohio, who commanded the advance when the attack was first made in the morning, was in the thickest of the fight all day. Lieut. Ayres, of the Twentieth Ohio, and Lieut. Munson, of the Seventy-eighth Ohio, who together commande
followed by a skilful deployment of the right and left, to cut off their retreat. The confederates held their ground for thirty minutes, and then fled in the wildest disorder, leaving one hundred and seventy-five prisoners in our hands, among whom were two lieutenants, two lieutenant-colonels, and a number of line-officers; three pieces of artillery, ordnance and quartermaster's stores, a large amount of provisions, camp equipage, personal effects, stand of regimental colors, and three railroad cars, which we destroyed. Their defeat was complete. Their loss in killed and wounded was about eighty. The conduct of our officers and men was highly meritorious, with numerous instances of individual bravery and efficiency. A report in detail will be forwarded by the first opportunity. Our loss is five killed, nine wounded, four missing. I have the honor to remain, yours very truly, Jas. S. Negley, Brigadier-General Commanding. Colonel J. B. Fry, A. A.G. and Chief of Staff.
