ep Bottom, July 26-7. he directed Hancock to turn the enemy's advance position, while Foster should amuse him by a feint in front; and this order was so admirably obeyed that the Rebel outpost was successfully flanked and carried by Miles's brigade Consisting of the 183d Pa., 28th Mass., and 26th Mich., under Col. J. C. Lynch. of Barlow's division, capturing 4 guns. The enemy fell back behind Bailey's creek; still holding firmly his strong defensive work at Chapin's bluff, opposite Fort Darling. Sheridan. with his cavalry, attempted to flank this work, and gained some high ground from which he hoped to get into its rear; but night came on before he was ready; and, so imminent seemed the danger on this flank, that Lee drew July 27-29. five of his eight remaining divisions across the James to avert it, affording the opportunity which Grant was awaiting. Burnside's corps held a position directly in front of Petersburg, including a point where our lines, owing to the nature

d originally of the 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th Regiments, to which the 11th was subsequently added. Other regiments were attached to the brigade at different times. The Ninth New Jersey was a regiment which reflected credit on its State, and made a brilliant reputation in the Department in which it served. It fought in the battles along the North Carolina coast, and in 1864 was attached to the Army of the James. Its principal losses occurred at Roanoke Island, New Berne, Port Walthall, Drewry's Bluff, Cold Harbor, and Petersburg. The Thirteenth New Jersey is noteworthy on account of the remarkably small number cf deaths from disease which occurred within its ranks. The regiments which marched by its side sustained far greater losses from this cause. And the Thirteenth saw an unusual amount of active service, too. It had not left the State two weeks before it joined McClellan's Army on the Maryland campaign, and was hotly engaged at Antietam. It fought through the Atlanta campai
