Doc. 180.-fight near Kinderhook, Tenn. General Negley's report. headquarters U. S. Forces, Columbia, Tenn., August 11, 1862--3 P. M. my movement against the guerrillas who have committed the late outrage has been completely successful. Major McGowan, in command of the Third Kentucky cavalry and First Tennessee cavalry, numbering one hundred and eight men, engaged one hundred and seventy-five of the enemy, near Kinderhook, at five A. M., continuing the contest fiercely for four hours. Seven were found killed, and a large number were wounded. Twenty-seven prisoners were captured, among which are a number of officers. Our loss was three killed. The woody and broken character of the country, and the combatants being scattered, prevents an actual estimate of the enemy's loss. I have received news from Major S. H. Kennedy, of my staff, commanding another portion of the expedition. He is driving the enemy in every direction. Jas. S. Negley, Brigadier-General Commanding.

Three days after, the Second South Carolina Volunteers, under Colonel J. B. Kershaw, arrived, and South Carolina had furnished the first organized brigade in Virginia. A brigade which, with some changes, became the First Brigade of the Army of the Potomac, and continued under Bonham, Kershaw, Conner, and Kennedy, a brigade throughout the war. A correspondent of the Charleston Mercury, who accompanied the first South Carolina Volunteers, writing on the 26th April, thus describes the appearance of Richmond on the arrival of this regiment: We reached Richmond on an auspicious day. The ordinance by which Virginia became a member of the Southern Confederacy had been adopted by the Convention in secret session and just made public. The people were wild with delight at the wished for consummation.
