eemed Shiloh so important, that I remained by it and renewed my orders to Colonels McDowell and Buckland to hold their ground; and we did hold these positions until — still at Shiloh — to fall back as far as the Purdy and Hamburg road, and for McDowell and Buckland to adopt that road as their new line. I rode across the angle ansubstantially disappeared from the field, though he himself bravely remained. McDowell's and Buckland's brigades maintained their organizations, and were conducted bhole front. He struggled most determinedly, but, finding him pressed, I moved McDowell's brigade directly against the left flank of the enemy, forced him back some dzation. Colonel Hildebrand was personally there, but his brigade was not. Colonel McDowell had been severely injured by a fall off his horse, and had gone to the rivl McClernand's camp, where we attracted the fire of a battery located near Colonel McDowell's former headquarters. Here I remained, patiently waiting for the sound o

Barret commanding, to the righthe one to Purdy, lay the remaining brigades of Sherman's division, McDowell's forming the extreme right of our whole advance line, Buckland's d Seventieth Ohio, Col. Cockerell. And on the extreme right, Col. McDowell's brigade, Sixth Iowa, (Col. McDowell--Lieutenant-Colonel commaCol. McDowell--Lieutenant-Colonel commanding;) Fortieth Illinois, Colonel Hicks; Forty-sixth Ohio, Colonel Thos. Worthington. Gen. Prentiss's division was composed of the Twelftid much to save the division from utter destruction. Buckland and McDowell held their ground fiercely for a time. At last they were compellentaining a confused fight, Hildebrand's about gone, Buckland's and McDowell's holding their ground more tenaciously. The firing aroused McCles together, to the rear and right, in such order as they might. McDowell's brigade had fallen back less slowly than its two companions of t
ficer was apprised by the rebel steamer which came out last night. The steamer was the De Soto, a Red river packet, as I am informed by the blue sideboard on her upper works. The tug which went off to her brought the rebel messenger--one Lieut. McDowell, a sprig of St. Louis rebelism — on board the flag-ship. This young man informed the Commodore that he had come from the officer in command of the confederates on the Island, with orders to surrender the Island to the flag-officer of the flotilla. Com. Foote replied that he would receive the surrender, but he asked somewhat sharply where the rest of the command was. The officer said they had retreated. Where had they gone to? They had gone to Hick--, really, Mr. McDowell did not know. Meanwhile, the gunboat St. Louis had been ordered to go up at once to Hickman and join the Louisiana for active work, in case the rebels should make their appearance there. Col. Buford despatched a regiment of infantry to the same place. No r

was our big day. The rebels attempted to repossess themselves of the place, and early in the morning they commenced firing on our pickets. A regiment of infantry, two companies of cavalry, and two pieces cannon had remained at a village called McDowell, ten miles out on the Staunton pike. They got word that there were but few troops here, and the General ordered them back to capture us and repossess the town. Monterey is the county-seat of Highland County, and is located in a beautiful valleuite a number wounded. Only two Union troops were injured, both of the Seventy-fifth Ohio. Sunday morning Capt. McNally, with one hundred and fifty infantry, and a small detachment of cavalry, in command of a Lieutenant, started out to visit McDowell; and shortly after noon a courier arrived from Crab bottom, with the news that the rebels, nearly two thousand strong, were flanking us, and would be in directly. The long roll beat, and we sprung to arms. Such expedition in donning equipments
43.-the advance to Falmouth, Va. A National account. About nightfall, on Tuesday, April fifteenth, Gen. Augur's brigade was ordered to advance. The General and staff preceded the troops, and arrived at Catlet's Station late at night. General McDowell arrived on a special train, at two o'clock on Wednesday morning. The advance was halted on Wednesday, for the arrival of the supply-train, and the remainder of Gen. King's division. In the mean time the rebels placed a field-piece upon tn. Augur at the headquarters, near Falmouth, on Saturday morning. The committee went Saturday morning, and had an interview with this General and delivered the response. Gen. Augur, after stating that he was but a brigade commander, and that Gen. McDowell would arrive in a day or two, with whom all definite arrangements must be made, still assured the committee that whenever the Federal forces occupied the town all measures needful to secure protection to persons and property, as demanded by t

a few hours two army corps will therefore be assembled at Gettysburg. In the mean time, the enemy must be imposed upon and held in check with the few troops that are already on the ground. The First division of the First corps, commanded by Wadsworth, following the direction that Reynolds had marked out before leaving it, has not entered Gettysburg. It has turned to the left, and at ten o'clock has ascended the eastern slope of Seminary Hill. Wadsworth, who at an advanced age had joined McDowell's staff as a volunteer, and whom we shall see fall gloriously in the Wilderness the following year, has acquired through practice some of the necessary qualities for the command he is exercising. Doubleday, to whom Reynolds has transferred the command of the First corps, and who in the course of this day will exhibit as much tenacity as presence of mind, has come to join him, leaving behind him the other two divisions, which are making a forced march. But Wadsworth has only two small brig
