wounded some. [No effect was produced on] the battery on our left, near the Farmington road, on account of the ground being impracticable, the battery and supports [being] protected by a fence. The fire from this was very severe, and though our men could not reach the guns, the enemy's gunners, evidently alarmed at the charge, ceased working their guns. Major Coon's battalion, led by him, gallantly attacked the battery near the building known as the cotton mill (the center battery). Lieutenant Reily, commanding Company F, of the Third Battalion, attacked and carried two guns in battery on our extreme right. The center battery was fairly tarried, the gunners driven from their guns, the enemy limbering up his guns without taking them off the field. Finding our horses badly blown from a long charge over rough ground and the infantry of the enemy in great force, I, under a heavy fire, ordered all companies on my right to retreat to the right and rear, forming on the Swamp road, and t

circumstances of great trial, justly entitles them to our hearty thanks and highest praise. Major-General Pickett's division merits especial credit for the determined manner in which it assaulted the enemy's strong position upon the cemetery hill. For valuable and meritorious services on the field, I desire to express my renewed obligations to the officers of my staff, Lieutenant-Colonel Sorrel, Lieutenant-Colonel Manning, Majors Fairfax, Latrobe, Clarke and Walton, and Captains Goree, Reily and Rogers. Major Mitchell, chief quartermaster, Major Moses, chief commissary of subsistence, Surgeon Cullen, medical director, Surgeons Barksdale and Maury, and Captain Manning, signal-officer, discharged the duties of their respective departments with zeal and ability. Statements of the casualties of the campaign, embracing the killed, wounded and missing, have been already forwarded. I have the honor to be, Colonel, Very respectfully your most obedient servant, (Signed) J. L

; next to it the equally famous Eighteenth Louisiana, Colonel Armant; with the guns of Faries' fighting Pelican battery posted along the line, and Bagby's Texas volunteers on the skirmish line. Colonel Vincent's Second Louisiana cavalry, held in reserve during the morning of the 12th, was ordered by General Taylor to proceed to Verdun's landing to prevent a gunboat of the enemy, with several transports containing troops, from making a landing at that point, and next day he was reinforced by Reily's Texas regiment. On the left bank the remainder of our little army was waiting. On the extreme right were Tom Green's Texas cavalry and Walker's battalion, both dismounted. On the left of Green's command was the Valverde battery; Colonel Gray's Louisiana regiment held the center, with a section of Cornay's St. Mary's Cannoneers and Semmes' battery. A 24-pounder siege gun, worked by Cornay's battery, was in position, commanding the approach by the west bank. In the upper Teche the D

ry of six guns, supported by columns of infantry and cavalry, some seven hundred yards in front of our position, went our brave volunteers, unmindful of the driving storm of grape, cannister and musket balls sent hurtling around them. With yells and ringing shouts they dashed on and on until the guns were won and the enemy in full retreat before them. After carrying the battery their guns were turned upon them, Captains Hardeman and Walker manning those on the right. Lieutenant Raguet, of Reily's battery, being on the ground, I placed one gun in his charge, manning it with such of the men as were nearest; the rammer being gone, a flag staff was used in its stead. Captain Teel coming up, an effective fire was kept up as long as the enemy were in sight. In the mean time a most timely and gallant charge was made by Major Raguet from our left, thus effecting a favorable diversion at the moment of our charge upon their battery. This charge by Major Raguet and his command was characte

The Skirmish at New Creek. --According to the Northern accounts, the Hessians got very severe raking in the affair at New Creek. They endeavor to make it appear that the Confederates also suffered heavily, but this is utterly at variance with the truth. A telegraphic dispatch says: The affair at New Creek bridge appears have been quite bloody. The bridge was guarded, as before stated, by a guard of for Marylanders, from Cumberland, under Capt. Reily, who had planted at the bridge one piece of artillery. They met the approach of the Confederate with a raking fire, mowing them down hill grass. This continued till the gunners were all killed and the brave little band were crush to pieces by overpowering numbers, two only escaping. The Confederates are said to have suffered terribly from the fire of the Marylanders. Lieut. Col. Thompson, of the Confederate army, has been captured by United State scouts near Phillippi. Col. Kelly is slowly regaining his stre

From Arizona. --The San Antonio (Texas) Herald has the following, confirming a statement made in this paper some days since: We are informed that Gen. Sibley received on Thursday evening, an express from Colonel Baylor, informing the General that Col. Canby, U. S. A., with 2,500 men, is at Fort Craig, threatening to come down and destroy El Paso. Baylor was at Dona And, determined to check Canby as far as possible.--This express met Col. Relly with his regiment above Ft. Clark, all well and moving rapidly Capt. Mardeman leading the advance, Col. Reily would use every expedition in hastening to Baylor's refer.

The correspondent of the Houston Telegraph, writing from Fort Thorn, Arizona, January 30, says: To cultivate feelings of friendship, Gen. Sibley, several weeks ago, sent Col. Reily on a mission to the Governor of Chihuahua. It was complete success. The Governor, in his reply to the General expressed the warmest feelings of friendship towards the Southern people. He desired to are the people of the South successful in their struggle for freedom and in s to purchase whatever supplies we may need without any duty, and ordered that some duties that glad been paid previously by us for stores to be refunded. Col. Reily has been sent on a similar mission to Sonora, and will, no doubt, meet with the same success. It is to our interest to cultivate relations of friendship and un
