halting to gather up their strength, then with one mighty bound throwing themselves upon their foes to drive them into their protecting forests beyond. We slept upon the bloody field of our victory. I cannot too highly praise the conduct of my brigade — of regiments old and new. Of the Second Massachusetts, Colonel Andrews, Third Wisconsin, Colonel Ruger, and Twenty-seventh Indiana, Colonel Colgrove, I had a right to expect much, and was not disappointed. Veterans of Winchester and Cedar Mountain, they can add to their laurels the battle of Antietam Creek. In this battle — I believe unparalleled in the war in severity and duration — officers and men behaved with most praiseworth intrepidity and coolness. The One Hundred and Seventh New-York, Colonel Van Valkenburg, and the Thirteenth New-Jersey, Colonel Carman, being new troops, might well stand appalled at such exposure, but they did not flinch in the discharge of their duties. I have no words but those of praise for thei<
lle for that purpose. The next day the Federal cavalry on the north side of the Rapidan was driven back by General Robertson, and on the ninth, Jackson's command arrived within eight miles of Culpeper Court-House, when the enemy was found near Cedar Run, a short distance north-west of Slaughter's Mountain.

On the ninth, as we arrived within about eight miles of Culpeper Court-House, we found the enemy in our front, near Cedar Run, and a short distance west and north of Slaughter's Mountain. When first seen, his cavalry, in large force, occupied a ridge to the right of the road. A battery, under Lieutenant Terry, opened upon the cavalry, which soon forced it to retire.de, August 14, 1862. Major-General R. S. Ewell, commanding Third Division: General: In compliance with your request, I submit a statement of the operations of the Seventh brigade on the ninth instant, in the battle of Slaughter's Mountain, (Cedar Run.) On the morning of the ninth, being in view of the enemy's cavalry, I was directed to approach under cover, and occupy a pine thicket, about three quarters of a mile from the enemy's picket. This was done successfully, undiscovered by the
