ation on Little Round Top. From a sketch made at the time. as at Malvern Hill, and now at Gettysburg, an invaluable resource in the time of greatest need. When in 1864, in the Rapidan campaign, it was got rid of, it reconstituted itself, without orders, and in a few weeks, through the necessities of the army, showing that principles vindicate themselves. When I arrived Birney's division was already posted on the crest, from Devil's Den to the Peach Orchard, and along the Emmitsburg road, Ward's brigade on the left, Graham's at the angle, De Trobriand's connecting them by a thin line. Humphreys's division was on Graham's right, near the Emmitsburg road, Carr's brigade in the front line, about the Smith house, Brewster's in second line. Burling's, with the exception of Sewell's 5th New Jersey Regiment, then in skirmish order at the front, was sent to reenforce Birney. Seeley's battery, at first posted on the right, was soon after sent to the left of the Smith house, and replaced

, killed, wounded, captured, and missing, were 2187, out of an aggregate of 12,000, by which it appears — I speak from the official record — that General Meade confidentially more than doubled the loss of the Fifth Corps, an inexcusable disregard of fact with the record before him; second, when General Meade says that the Third Corps was practically destroyed on the 2d of July he is contradicted by the two division commanders, Humphreys and Birney, and by Graham and Carr, and by De Trobriand, Ward, Burling, and Brewster. Not to weary the readers with extracts from the reports of all these distinguished Third Corps commanders, I will cite an example from the report of General Joseph B. Carr. General Carr, in his official report, states: Notwithstanding my apparently critical position I could and would have maintained it but for an order received direct from Major-General Birney, commanding the corps, to fall back to the crest of the hill in my rear. This was between 6 and 7 o'clock in

e head of the column. There I found Generals Sheridan, Davis, and Negley. We were about half-way between the field and Rossville. We held a hasty conference. Davis ordered a right-about at once, and marched briskly to the front; Lieutenant-Colonel William M. Ward followed with the 10th Ohio. Sheridan was still without faith. He may have thought there was danger at Rossville, or that his troops had not regained their fighting spirit. He insisted on going to Rossville. Darkness would catchtroops had not regained their fighting spirit. He insisted on going to Rossville. Darkness would catch him before he could reach the field from that direction. Negley was vacillating: he finally went to Rossville. We soon reached the battle-field with Davis's and Ward's troops, but the night was then near. They did not get into action, but it was a cheerful sight to see at least some of the troops cut off in the morning in.line again on the right of General Thomas, ready for an emergency.

rgia. On the 17th of October the sailing schooner Ward, that was watching the entrance to the little bay of Murrell's Inlet to the northward of Georgetown in South Carolina, seized without fighting a hostile craft of the same strength; but three days later a part of the crew, having landed to take in water, were captured by a party of Southern horsemen. The same accident having been renewed under like circumstances in the case of the sailors belonging to the brig Perry that had relieved the Ward, Dahlgren despatched several vessels to Murrell's Inlet, and one of them, the Nipsic, effected a landing on the 1st day of January to destroy a hostile schooner. The operations of the Eastern Gulf squadron may be expressed in a few lines. Still more than elsewhere the Federals sought to destroy the salt-works so numerous on the coast of Florida: in June they destroyed those on Alligator Bay; in July, those on Marsh Island, near to the Ocklockonnee River; finally, in December they destroye

h this time marched in as close order as possible. As soon as they had passed Natchitoches—that is to say, toward seven in the morning—A. J. Smith fell in behind them; Lucas' brigade of cavalry brought up the rear. As soon as the movement declared itself, Wharton with Steele's cavalry entered Natchitoches, which the Federals had scarcely left, and dashed off in pursuit. He followed them so close that Lucas was obliged to appeal for help to Kilby Smith, whose division formed the rearguard. Ward's brigade of infantry broke the force of Wharton's attacks, who came to a halt at a point called Twenty-four Mile Ferry, where the road for the first time crosses Cane River. However, Banks, once on the march, seemed as if he never meant to stop, so great was his haste to reach Monet's Ferry; he marched his soldiers thirty-seven miles at a stretch, without allowing them the least halt, to Cloutierville, while the rearguard did not arrive till three in the morning. He started on the 23d befo
