We were immediately faced about and retraced our steps. When near the residence of Dr. Kinney the enemy were discovered in a thicket a our left, between the two roads.

As quick as thought our brave and gallant Colonel ordered his front guard to fire, and immediately placed his regiment in a condition to make a charge; then came the cheering command, "Charge — charge them, brave boys, into the woods." The charge was made in a most gallant manner; the enemy was completely routed and driven like Chaffin a storm; the dead lay thick through the woods and in the wheat field through which the boys impetuously charged, and a few dead and wounded were to be seen in Dr. Kinney's yard, near his door. The estimate of killed and wounded on the Yankee side is 200, killed and we captured 75 prisoners, who were placed in charge of a squad of cavalry which was passing by in retreat. Our loss in killed and wounded is comparatively light--seven killed and twenty-five wounded. When our firing had ce

With no assistance near, and despairing of getting help, he withdrew just in time to save his regiment from destruction. The conduct of the regiment in this action was certainly very good, especially so when it is recollected that this fire was the first to which it had been exposes. Lieut-Col Lowe was exposed during the entire action. He has shown himself to be a brave man and worthy of his position. Major S. D. Lowe was also in the fight, and bravely endeavored to do his duty.

The estimate of killed and wounded on the Yankee side is 200, killed and we captured 75 prisoners, who were placed in charge of a squad of cavalry which was passing by in retreat. Our loss in killed and wounded is comparatively light--seven killed and twenty-five wounded. When our firing had ceased, and as we all believed a handsome victory had been obtained, we suddenly found ourselves confronting a whole brigade. Col. Lane now coolly ordered Lieut. Potis, of the artillery, to bring his pieces into position and reply to the enemy's battery, which was now shelling us heavily. Lieut. P. seen began firing into their battery and line, and as he acted bravely and deliberately, his fire must have done considerable execution. Col.
