they soon encounter new adversaries; for Caldwell, seeing the losses of his first line, has caused the second, composed of Zook's and Brooke's brigades, to advance. Semmes' troops are driven back to the other side of the ravine before they have been of the loss of the orchard are, however, as fatal to Barnes as to Humphreys. Sweitzer has posted himself on the right of Zook in that part of the road which has just been recaptured from Kershaw. Tilton has again formed his line, farther up on thecumbs under their effort. Kershaw immediately takes advantage of it in order to resume the offensive against Sweitzer and Zook; Semmes joins him. Barnes' two brigades, hard pushed in front and in flank, are driven out of the wood. Caldwell's soldieeft by Hood's troops, evacuate the wood and the wheat-field, the bloody soil of which is covered with the dead and dying. Zook is killed; the losses are enormous. The Confederates, posted in the wood, command all its approaches; their artillery, de

Cluke, seeing his retreat cut off, returns to Mount Sterling, captures the small Union garrison which occupied this point, and on the 20th of March, forcing his way through the troops that have been sent in pursuit of him, gains, by another route, the inaccessible plateau whence he had emerged. In the mean while, Pegram, who has gathered together the remainder of his cavalry at Monticello, in the upper valley of the Cumberland, has advanced along the road followed the previous year by Zollicoffer, which leads to Danville and Lexington by way of Mill Springs and Somerset. Whilst the Federals are trying to surround Cluke he crosses Cumberland River, and rapidly passes through the village of Somerset, causing a portion of his cavalry to dismount in order to make the inhabitants believe that he has a brigade of infantry with him, and to deceive the Federal spies as to the number of his troops. On the 18th of March his scouts, who have preceded him, appear before Stanford. The Union

randy Station the hostile lines are mixed in such a melee as was never before witnessed in America: cannon are wrenched from each other's possession, changing hands several times. On both sides the losses are heavy; Colonels Hampton, Butler, and Young are wounded on the Confederate side, and three superior officers in Wyndham's brigade alone. Yet in the presence of forces twice as numerous as its own Gregg's division maintained itself with difficulty north of the railroad. There was no assakness of his force, is seriously wounded. But Lee's efforts are not in vain, for he has delayed the march of Pleasonton, and the combat at Brandy Station will come to an end without the latter being cognizant of the fact. A final charge by General Young has driven Kilpatrick's brigade beyond the railroad, and almost at the same time Wyndham, after having lost the five pieces of artillery so long disputed, has been obliged to abandon Brandy Station. Kilpatrick's regiments return several time

ed as skirmishers, with the infantry on the slopes of the hill. While Stuart makes Gordon's brigade, also on foot, confront them, he places himself at the head of Young's cavalry, and, making a detour, arrives on their flank at a gallop. The soldiers of the One-hundred-and-twentieth New York are the first exposed to his blows: alurn, to take part in the battle, which, thus engaged on all sides at the same time, becomes a real melee. Clouds of dust soon envelop the combatants. Gordon's and Young's brigades are pressing the Federals on the north of the railway; the brigade of Jones charges them near the road; Fitzhugh Lee, who has called all his forces togve his adversaries by ordering his men to fight on foot, as if they were the skirmishers of an army corps. The ruse does not succeed, despite the reinforcement of Young's brigade, which comes in haste from James City. Buford vigorously pushes the Southern cavalry until he is in sight of Culpeper and assures himself that there is

who could not offer any serious resistance. The division, after having bivouacked at Gettysburg and Mummasburg, reached the neighborhood of Berlin on the 27th and York on the 28th. Gordon's brigade, following the railroad, had marched with greater speed than the others, and arrived at York at an early hour. Early immediately dieutenant, the latter did not suppose that he meant the rear of his columns on the march northward, but rather his base of operations at the east; when he mentioned York as the point near which he might encounter Early and join the head of the Confederate army by following its right flank without ceasing to cover it, Stuart looked armies, which in order to move with rapidity are obliged to follow them; therefore, as we have seen, three of these highways—those of Chambersburg, Baltimore, and York—centred at Gettysburg. Such is the ground upon which unforeseen circumstances were about to bring the two armies in hostile contact. Neither Meade nor Lee had
