Dr. Wise, Surgeon-in-Chief Division, Captains Brink (Inspector-General,) Day, (Provost-Marshal,) and my Aids, Captain Hayes, and Lieutenants Holling-worth, Oliver, Fuller, and Griffin, have each, in his respective place, more than fulfilled my expectations.

This officer deserves, and I earnestly hope that he may be promoted. Accompanying this report will be found a nominal list of killed, wounded, and missing, also Provost-Marshal's statement of captures

They rushed upon the rebels with drawn sabres and a shout that scattered them in the wildest disorder. They fled in every direction of escape, leaving in our hands two (2) splendid Rodman guns and a number of prisoners.
