e enemy, who could not be persuaded to leave. Baird's division came up next morning; but both togeleve, Palmer, J. J. Reynolds, Johnson (R. W.), Baird, and Brannan, forming our main line — perhaps o brigades on the road to Reid's bridge, while Baird should throw forward the right wing of his divn, making the odds against us two to one; when Baird was in turn driven: the Rebels, charging throutaking our lost guns, and enabling Brannan and Baird to reform their disorganized commands. In resfor an attack on his left); then Johnson, then Baird, then Van Cleve — the Rebel charge being so imfrom our right center, came into action beside Baird, on our extreme left, checking Breckinridge's division, hitherto in reserve, were sent up to Baird and posted by him on his front; and these, witwn in succession from the ridge: Johnson's and Baird's, being last, were of course assailed by the , the order to advance and attack.

Johnston, commanding in northern Georgia, having dispatched two divisions of Hardee's corps, under Stewart and Anderson, to the aid of Polk in Mississippi, Gen. Grant, still commanding at Chattanooga, sent forward Feb. 22. the 14th corps, under Gen. Palmer, to counteract this diversion. The divisions of Jeff. C. Davis, Johnson, and Baird, moved on the direct road to Dalton; Stanley's division, under Gen. Crufts, moving from Cleveland on our left, and forming a junction with Palmer just below Ringgold. The advance was resisted, but not seriously, at Tunnel Hill and at Rocky-Face ridge; whence Palmer pressed forward, against continually increasing resistance, to within two miles of Dalton ; where, hearing that the two Rebel divisions which were sent south had been brought back, and that all Johnston's (late Bragg's) army was
little loss. He then moved on a few miles and camped, unpursued; being soon reenforced by Col. M. C. Hunter's brigade of Baird's division, which Jeff. C. Davis, hearing of his peril, had sent from the left wing to his aid. The need of assistance, hSherman's object being still to threaten Augusta and bewilder the enemy as to his purpose. Thus Kilpatrick, supported by Baird, was thrown out again to Waynesboroa; fighting Dec. 4. Wheeler and driving him 8 miles across Briar creek; while BairdBaird destroyed the Augusta railroad; when the 14th was concentrated on Jacksonboroa, and all moved rapidly down Briar creek toward the Savannah; Baird and Kilpatrick in the rear, which was now pressed by Wheeler, with sharp skirmishing, but with little Baird and Kilpatrick in the rear, which was now pressed by Wheeler, with sharp skirmishing, but with little loss on either side. Gen. Morgan, in Davis's van, was halted, near Ebenezer church, a strong fieldwork in his front, Dec. 9. which seemed to be firmly held; but night fell while he was preparing to attack it, and it was found empty next morning.
