July 25th, 1861, to August 29th, 1862. Washington, September 1, 1862. Brig.-General Williams, Asst. Adj.-General: General: In compliance with the orders of Major-General McClellan, I have the honor to give some account of the history, organization, and operations of the Artillery of the Army of the Potomac from July, 1861, to September, 1862, the period during which I was its chief. When Major-General McClellan was appointed to the command of the Division of the Potomac, July twenty-fifth, 1862, a few days after the first battle of Bull Run, the whole field-artillery of his command consisted of no more than parts of nine batteries, or thirty pieces of various, and, in some instances, unusual and unserviceable calibres. Most of these batteries were also of mixed calibres. My calculations were based upon the expected immediate expansion of the Division of the Potomac into the Army of the Potomac, to consist of at least one hundred thousand infantry.
