o been severely wounded and could not go over. Thereupon the General dismounted, and a gust of wind blowing open his coat we saw that he was wounded in the body. Sergeant Joe Merritt, Storer Knight, and I took the General to the rear, assisted for a while by a negro cook from Hooker's Corps. We put the General into an ambulance in the woods in front of which we had deployed, and noticed that General Gordon was just at that moment posting the 107th New York in their front edge. Colonel Jacob Higgins, 125th Pennsylvania regiment, commanding the Brigade after Crawford was wounded, reports that some of his men carried General Mansfield off the field on their muskets until a blanket was procured. General George H. Gordon, commanding the Third Brigade of this division, which formed on Crawford's left, reports that General Mansfield had been mortally wounded. . . while making a bold reconnoissance of the woods through which we had just dashed.--Editors. from a photograph.

Boyd, with 300 select horsemen, into the Luray Valley to cover our left flank, especially against Mosby; but Colonel Higgins was attacked and beaten by a detachment of Imboden's brigade between Wardensville and Moorefield on the 9th of May, and pursued north toward Romney. Colonel Boyd was ambuscaded on his way from the Luray Valley to New Market on the 13th and defeated, suffering a loss of 125 men [GeCaptain Battersby's company being the last to cross the bridge. We would have remained at that place, but since the cavalry on our flank, under Colonels Boyd and Higgins respectively, had been beaten, flanks and rear were unprotected. We had a supply train of two hundred wagons with us, destined for General Crook in case we shoul

The regiment numbers $50 sturdy patriots, form the beautiful hills and valleys and the soul misses of Behuyl kill, Northampton and Laigh. The old Rey State is nobly doing her duty, and has sent her 33d regiment, 1,000 strong, principally from the counties of Middlesex, Essex, and Suf- folk. The regiment is commanded by Col. A. C.
