rehensive lest some fortunate chance might enable her to elude the blockade. On the 27th the Montauk, commanded by Captain Worden—the same who had made himself famous while in command of the Monitor at Hampton Roads—brought her broadside to bear d after having exhausted all her ammunition. She bore the marks of numerous cannon-balls which had done her no harm, and Worden, satisfied with this experience, obtained at the common expense of both combatants, reported in favor of this new implemeter immediately directed their fire against the spunky little craft which had come to defy them to their very teeth. But Worden, trusting to his armor, did not take the trouble of replying, but quietly opened fire upon the Nashville. The Ogeechee, in her hull, and soon set her on fire. As the Nashville, which was loaded with powder, blew up with a tremendous crash, Worden quietly retired, without having received the least damage from the projectiles of the enemy: he would have been absolutel

the two banks comprise the village of Bristoe. What remains of these houses at the time of which we are speaking consists simply of high chimneys blackened by fire. On the north-east are the plains of Manassas, untimbered and bordered only by a skirt of wood four or five hundred yards in width which commands the rather rugged slopes of the left bank. The railroad crosses Kettle Run two miles south-west of the Bristoe viaduct. The ground which separates the two streams is rather uneven. Woody along the railroad, which cuts it in a straight line from the southwest to the north-east, it is cultivated on the north-west in the direction of Greenwich. The most elevated part is near the viaduct: for a space of six hundred yards between a small meadow, which it crosses on an embankment, and the station of Bristoe, the road passes through a rather deep cut. It emerges suddenly near the station, and, overlooking on the right the dale which descends to Broad Run, it passes immediately ove

proaches and circumvallation undertaken by each division were naturally adapted to the irregularities of the ground before it. Steele's division formed the extreme right of the Federal army: the heights it occupied, bordered by the ravine where it had lost so many men on the 22d, presented slopes of too great inclination in front of the enemy's positions to admit of trenches being constructed in that locality. These slopes, however, gradually become gentler in the vicinity of the river. Woods' brigade began building approaches along these acclivities against a strong battery which commanded both the Mississippi and the Yazoo City road, of which we have already spoken. Sherman, believing that the enemy had taken away the heavy guns with which this battery was mounted in order to strengthen his defences on the land-side, imagined that a vessel could easily silence the few pieces which he supposed to have been left in the work, and that he might support Woods' labors by enfilading

cond corps, placed by Major Hazzard in the rear of the infantry along the rocky line which gradually trends northward; one of them is placed half-way on the left; the other three, under Arnold, Cushing, and Brown, are located on the high ridge. Woodruff's regular battery occupies Ziegler's Grove. Finally, to the right of the front exposed to the enemy's fire a regular battery, and eight others belonging to the First and Eleventh corps, form under Major Osborne an irregular line turning north-wg. The ridge of this plateau, the summit of which is very level, is bordered at the west by rocks which project from the soil, sometimes to a height of four or five feet, forming a wall, as on the summit of Culp's Hill. The wood is defended by Woodruff's guns, posted along the lower edge, masking the right of the Third division of the Second corps, commanded by Hays. Farther on, the natural wall affords the latter strong defensive positions; fifty yards south of the wood, above a spring calle
