has been reported to General Bragg. We have been forced back by the operations of a siege, which the enemy's extreme caution and greatly superior numbers have made it impossible for me to prevent. I have found no opportunity for battle, except by attacking intrenchments. J. E. Johnston. Near Atlanta, July 11, 1864. General Bragg, Richmond: I strongly recommend the distribution of the United States prisoners, now at Andersonville, immediately. J. E. Johnston. Near Atlanta, July 16, 1864. His Excellency the President, Richmond: Your dispatch of to-day received. The slight change in the enemy's dispositions made since my dispatch of the 14th to General Cooper was reported to General Bragg yesterday. It was a report from General Wheeler that Schofield's corps had advanced eastwardly about three miles from Isham's Ford, and intrenched. As the enemy has double our numbers, we must be on the defensive. My plan of operations must, therefore, depend upon that of t

Memorandum for Colonel Browne, Aide-de-camp. Dalton, February 8, 1864. The effective total of the army (infantry and artillery), thirty-six thousand one hundred and eleven. At the end of December it was thirty-six thousand eight hundred and twenty-six, which, during the month, was reduced by the transfer of Quarles's and Baldwin's brigades (twenty-seven hundred). The present brigades of the army, therefore, were increased by nineteen hundred and eighty-five effectives during January. We have a few unarmed men in each brigade. About half are without bayonets. Many barefooted --the number of the latter increasing rapidly. Thirteen thousand three hundred pairs of shoes are now wanted for infantry and artillery. The artillery is not efficient, is unorganized, and there are not means of ascertaining if it has officers fit for colonels and lieutenant-colonels. Both these grades should be filled. I am endeavoring to improve the organization. About four hundred artillery

They are now, like all this army, within rifle-shot of the enemy. J. E. Johnston. Near Marietta, June 29, 1864.
