t upon Banks's line, to where he halted again in doubt, the distance was one mile and a half. It was the intention of the enemy to reach Culpeper that night; but the vigorous attack upon his battery, The enemy admit in official reports that the battery which opened upon us at midnight was silenced, causing Captain Pegram severe loss, and compelling him to withdraw. the report of his most reliable scout that the enemy was but a few hundred yards in advance, and the additional fact that Colonel Jones, of the Seventh Virginia Cavalry, reported that he had learned from some prisoners taken that Federal reinforcements had arrived, induced Jackson to think it prudent to halt.

He gave as his reason that he was convinced that Pope would have sixty thousand men before he could resume. Dabney's Life of Jackson. When we consider that

Even Dabney admits in his history of this action that Jackson had 20,000 men engaged; but he puts our force at 32,000 in the battle. Dabney's Life of Jackson. Arguments for Jackson's prowess based upon such figures are grounded on air. Jackson admits a loss in killed and wounded of 1,314, and claims to have caused us a loss of twice that number. We captured four hundred prisoners, 5,302 small arms, one twelve-pounder Napoleon and its caisson, with two other caissons and a limber. Jackson's Report. Jackson thought, says Dabney, that Cedar Mountain was his most successful battle. This field was remarkable for the narrowness of its front: a mile in width, embracing the whole ground upon which centre and left wing had wrestled for half a day against 30,000 men,--a number which would make a line of battle six miles long.

or instance: while the enemy's fire was at its hottest, Major Perkins of Banks's staff, coming from the wooded cover, rode upthe destruction of the regiment, and will do no good! Major Perkins (who was an educated soldier) made no reply, but shrugg you, and you told me I need not obey the order. I met Major Perkins a day or two after, and he said to me he supposed that first ordered. It is somewhat of an explanation that Major Perkins, while on the extreme right of our line of battle, in g an explanation it is wholly inadequate to clear up why Major Perkins did not himself discover the error, and not put upon me the responsibility. Perkins knew not only that Colonel Andrews could not have made that movement without my orders, but thae: Captains Abbott, Cary, Williams, and Goodwin, and Lieutenant Perkins, were dead; Major Savage was mortally wounded and a field Captains Cary, Goodwin, Abbott, Williams, and Lieutenant Perkins.
