Heintzelman was promptly summoned to the aid of Couch; but there was an unaccounted — for delay in the reception of the message, and some of his regiments did not rush to the front quite so impetuously as a good portion of Couch's, especially the 55th New York (De Trobriand's Frenchmen), made tracks for the rear. It was a quarter past 3 o'clock before Heintzelhman came fairly into the fight; Jamison's Maine and Berry's Michigan brigades eagerly pushing to the front. On the Rebel left, Gen. Smith's attack was delayed by Johnston, who was there in person, until 4 P. M., listening for the sound of Longstreet's musketry, which, for some atmospheric reason, he failed to hear. It was now too late for complete success, though his men fought desperately. The Richmond and York River Railroad, near its crossing of theNine-mile road, runs for a considerable distance on an embankment 4 or 5 feet high,
