General Pettigrew's Brigade. Camp Four Miles From Richmond, June 7th, 1862. To the Editors of the Dispatch: The 4th brigade, under the gallant Pettigrew, bore an active part in the fight of 31st. It was a part of the left wing in the attack, Longstreets forces being on the right. We entered the fight with an enemy fleeing before us, and had begun to think it a matter of course that he should fly when we presented ourselves.-- So he did, too, till he reached his entrenchments, and we, hot in pursuit, felt into an ambuscade. Which resulted disastrously. We marched from our camp on the Meadow Bridge road. Saturday morning. Wading through mud and water, we reached the field near Gen. Magruder's present headquarters, at about two o'clock, where we rested till five. The order "forward" was never halted by any troops with more welcome than by the 4th brigade at this time. Never was it obeyed with more spirit and alacrity. Whiting's brigade was ordered in advance of us.
