ained quiet all day. The enemy having been driven across the Chickahominy, we were ordered to prepare two days rations and be ready to march at daylight. On the 29th we crossed the river and moved down James river, marching a distance of twelve or fifteen miles and encamping. On the 30th we again marched down the river, in o which they will not soon recover. Many others sustained injuries, the extent of which may be learned from official reports already published. On Saturday, the 29th, we proceeded to recross the Chickahominy, and pursued the enemy until Monday evening, the 30th, when we overtook him and were at once formed in columns of regimend or mortally wounded, and sixteen wounded, twenty-nine men killed on the field, and two hundred and two wounded. The number actually carried into action on Friday, 29th ultimo, was near four hundred and fifty officers and men. In specially commending certain officers, whose conduct was markedly brought to my own notice, I have rea

was here reported to me that the brigades of Generals Lawton and Early were near by, and, sending for them, they promptly moved to my front at the most opportune moment, and this last charge met with the same disastrous fate that had befallen those preceding.

During the night of the 29th, my brigades were engaged in refilling cartridge-boxes, and generally putting themselve in condition for the morrow's fight. * * * * Branch, Pender, Brockenbrough and Strong were brought from the front and placed in reserve. On the 30th, about two o'clock, the enemy again made an attack along the whole line. The attack on my part of the line was gallantly resisted by Archer and Thomas-Gregg still holding the extreme left. This onset was so fierce, and in such force, that at first some he

d and Grenada, where we had large quantities of army supplies. To protect these points, Breckinridge's division was detached from the army and marched across the country to the railroad near Abbeville, reaching there on the 22d of June. The enemy did not advance, as was expected, but returned to Memphis, and, after removing the supplies from Grenada, in obedience to orders from the Commanding-General, the division proceeded by railroad to Vicksburg, part of the command reaching there on the 29th, and the remainder on the 30th of June. In order that you may understand the situation at Vicksburg at this time, it will be necessary for me to digress a little. After the capture of New Orleans, Major-General Lovel, who had been in command there, determined to make a defence at Vicksburg, and the patriotic people of that devoted city approved his determination, although they knew it might cause its destruction. Brigadier-General M. L. Smith, with a force of some 2,000 men, occupied the
