orce, Gen. Bayard was ordered to press forward as rapidly as possible on the rear of the flying enemy. Stewart's Indiana and Sixth Ohio cavalry, under Col Zagonyi, who arrived very soon after, were also sent on, and in a few minutes Buell's and Schirmer's batteries, and the rest of the light artillery under Col. Pilsen, as fast as it could be brought to the front, were hurried ahead at full gallop. After a brief conference with Gen. Bayard, Gen. Fremont rode on with his staff. The morning further. It was soon found that the distance was too great for our guns. Col. Albert, chief of staff; was in advance, and reconnoitring the position with a soldier's eye, saw that the river bends suddenly half a mile beyond the bridge, and sent Schirmer's battery to a hill on this side, which flanked the rebel camp, and at once forced them to withdraw to a more secure position. Nothing more could be done till the bridge was rebuilt, and the army was, therefore, halted for the night. Twenty

churz. To assist these troops, so hard pressed by overpowering numbers, exhausted by fatigue and weakened by losses, I ordered one battery of reserve to take position on their left, and posted two pieces of artillery under Lieutenant Blum, of Schirmer's battery, supported by the Forty-first New-York volunteers, beyond their line, and opposite the right flank of the enemy, who was advacing in the woods. These pieces opened fire with canister most effectively, and checked the enemy's advance oin the woods beyond. We here discovered that we were on the battle-ground of the night before, and found the hospital of Gibbon's brigade, who had engaged the enemy. The battery of the enemy still continued. We had no artillery, De Beck's and Schirmer's having given out, and Buell's battery, which had reported after a hot contest with the enemy, (who have every advantage in position and range,) was compelled to retire. It was now determined to flank the battery, and capture it, and for this

At four o'clock on the afternoon of the 26th of June, a terrific fire was concentrated on this point, which was kept up until dark, the fleet taking a prominent part. The Richmond came up and poured in her broadsides two or three times, but did not maintain her position. During the firing our flag was shot down four times, the staff being shattered to pieces every time, and the bunting torn to shreds. Each time it was raised by Lieutenant Schirmer, of de Gournay's artillery, who was himself killed at the last attempt to replace it. At Battery eleven.

From the 25th to 30th the concentration of fire on this place was fearful, though our loss was not as heavy as could have been expected, because we kept there no more men than were actually req
