cted to such an ordeal as a drawn fight in the open field against Lee's veteran soldiers. Losses on Both Sides.-We have now the official figures, which preclude any further discussion on that subject; I acknowledge my mistake pointed out by Colonel Allan, concerning the losses of the Confederate army, as he acknowledges his regarding the losses of the Third corps. From the returns of Stuart, now in my hands, his loss on the 2d and on the 3d of July, was 264, and including Imboden's and Jenkin's, must be above 300, while, on the other hand, we must deduct from the 22,728, about 700 men lost between the 3d and the 18th of July; therefore the whole Confederate loss at Gettysburg must have been about 22,300 or 22,400. The official figures are for the Federals: Killed, 2,834; wounded, 13,709; missing, 6,643. Total, 23,186. For the Confederates: Killed, 2,665; wounded, 12,599; missing, 7,464. Total, 22,728. The number of Confederate prisoners reported by Meade was 13,621, bu

e. Berryville. On the 13th, we moved on towards Berryville, but before reaching Millwood, the advance of the infantry was discovered by some of the enemy's cavalry, who had come up from Berry's ferry (apparently en route to Berryville), a result which would have been avoided had General Jenkins occupied Millwood during the night before, as he was ordered to do. Finding our movements discovered, the division was marched, with the utmost celerity, through Millwood, upon Berryville, where Jenkin's brigade, after driving in the enemy's cavalry, was found, held at bay by the Federal artillery. Arriving on the field, and communicating with General Jenkins, it was apparent that the enemy were preparing to evacuate the place, but still held it, as well as I could judge, with infantry, cavalry and artillery. I immediately determined to surround them if possible, and ordered General Jenkins to march to the left of the town, to cut off the retreat of the enemy towards Winchester. The inf

ive fire, with twenty guns, upon the work west of the flag fort. This heavy artillery fire enabled the infantry to take this work with but little loss. This artillery was afterwards advanced to the captured work, prepared to drive the enemy from the flag fort on the next morning. To assist in this twelve additional guns were on this night in position on an abandoned hill in the Valley turnpike, and near Hollingsworth's mills. At this point the Baltimore Light Artillery, attached to Jenkin's cavalry, did good service on the 14th. This disposition would, I think, have insured the fall of their main work, but the enemy retired during the night. On the morning of the 15th Lieutenant-Colonel Andrews, with Dement's and sections from Raines's and Carpenter's batteries, had a sharp engagement with the enemy's infantry, who were retreating on the road towards Charlestown by Jordan's springs. Great credit is due the officers and men for the spirited and determined manner in whic

had previously served on the staff of Gov. John L. Manning with the rank of lieutenant-colonel. In April, 1861, he volunteered in the Confederate service and was made first lieutenant of a local company, from which he resigned shortly afterward. In June, 1861, he entered Company B, Hampton legion, as a private and served with that command until the reorganization in 1862, when he was made adjutant of the Hampton legion infantry regiment, commanded by Colonel Gary. With this regiment, General Jenkin's brigade, he served until about May 1, 1864, when Gary's cavalry brigade was organized and he was made its adjutant-general. He was in Longstreet's corps at Suffolk, with Jenkins' brigade on the Blackwater, and in front of Richmond in 1863; joined Longstreet's corps at Petersburg and served with it at the siege of Chattanooga and Knoxville until January, 1864. During the entire siege of Petersburg he served on the extreme left of Lee's army, south of Richmond, taking care of those lin

opinion that this Mississippi brigade was in many respects the finest body of men he ever saw. Colonel Hunton, of the Eighth Virginia, however, was the chief contributing factor in the conduct of the actual battle and the winning of the victory. As next in rank to Evans, as White tells us, Hunton was in command of the field from the moment of his arrival, at about 12 M., and so, as I know, ordered all the dispositions and movements of troops engaged in the battle. With no other aid than Jenkin's small command of 320 (his own regiment numbering less than four hundred), he first drove the enemy's largely superior force back to their position near the bluffs, and by promptly seizing and heroically holding for four hours at least the ridge, which was the key of the situation, he was enabled to repulse Baker's charges and compel his adversary to fight under every disadvantage. The disabling and subsequent capture of the enemy's howitzer's was an important turning point in our favor, a
tly highly entertained. Prominent along the line were the Washington Artillery, from Augusta, Ga., and the Continentals, from Mobile, also, the Montgomery cavalry companies of Captain Cox and Clanton. The infantry did exceedingly well as a body, but the best discipline was observed in some companies of the Georgia 5th. But last, though not least, I must not omit to mention the verdict given by the ladies--God bless them!--and they may be regarded as connoisseurs in such matters — that "Capt. Jenkin's company was the finest body of men and horse on the fields;" but, as remarked by one lady, "the only misfortune was, they were not uniformed," This "misfortune," however, it is to be hoped, will soon be remedied. In fact, I understand that measures are already taken to uniform the company as soon as the material can be procured. Gen. Bragg is a man of pleasing mein, and is well calculated to inspire the confidence reposed in him by the army, and withal he is a superb horseman.
