of the War of the Rebellion by the United States Government, but the cotemporaneous literature on the part of Confederate officers is very scant; they fought better and longer than they wrote. As a specimen of the Confederate reports, that of General Early may fitly be taken. It contrasts strikingly with the ten-page document of General Hunter upon the same subject, found in the seventieth volume of the War of the Rebellion, page 94. General Early's report is as follows: General: New London, June 19, 1864, 9:30 A. M. Last evening the enemy assaulted my line in front of Lynchburg and was repulsed by the part of my command which was up. On the arrival of the rest of the command I made arrangements to attack this morning at light, but it was discovered that the men were retreating, and I am now pursuing. The enemy is retreating in confusion, and, if the cavalry does its duty, we will destroy him. J. A. Early, Lieutenant-General. General R. E. Lee. This report is brief

Sir George Collier and Tryon, the British admiral and general, in their address to the inhabitants of Connecticut, said: The existence of a single habitation on your defenceless coast ought to be a constant reproof to your ingratitude. Moore's Diary, II. 190, note. The Chap. X.} 1779. July. British had already lost nearly a hundred and fifty men, but the survivors were gorged with plunder. The town of New London was selected as the next victim; but Tryon was recalled to New York by a disaster which had befallen the British. No sooner had they strongly fortified themselves at Stony Point, than Washington, after ascertaining exactly the character of their works, formed a plan for carrying them by surprise.

Hurlbut had sent an expedition to Grenada, Miss., which drove the rebels out of the town and destroyed fifty-seven locomotives and over four hundred cars, belonging to the different Southern railroads concentrating at Jackson.

Just then a soldier, who had lost an arm, began to shake the stump in the face of the O. P. F., exclaiming, "I am indebted to you for this!" (pointing to the maimed arm,) "and the devil will liquidate the debt when he gets you!" At this point the whistle of the locomotive screamed the signal of
