ber 20, 1863, by the troops of the Twenty-second Alabama Regiment of Deas' Brigade in Hindman's Division, commanded in that action by General address. I gave it to him—Major Douglass West, Inspector-General, Deas' Brigade. He startled me by replying: Why, that's my name! Proba, incorrect in saying that General Lytle was killed by a regiment of Deas' Brigade. I think there is abundant proof that he fell in front of to the body of General Lytle. You will recall that we supported General Deas' Brigade. You will recall, also, that upon the exhaustion of thajor West must have fallen into the error by reason of the fact that Deas' Brigade commenced the charge, supported by us, overlooking the fact Lytle was killed we had taken the lead as charging brigade, and General Deas' Brigade had become our support. I observe another unintentioon Anderson commanded his own brigade, in Hindman's Division, and did not command General Deas' Brigade. Very truly yours, S. S. Calhoon

shells, the swish of grape-shot, all combined to make a battle scene of unsurpassed grandeur. The wildest enthusiam now took possession of our troops. Hindman's Division dashed forward and carried the enemy's works with an impetuosity never surpassed. The Federals were staggered on every hand, and ran in great disorder, leaving guns in position and thousands of dead and wounded on the field. General Hindman, in his report, pays the highest compliment to Manigault and his brigade, also to Deas and Anderson. Longstreet's wing of the army was now fully engaged, and was handled with skill and judgment, throwing the full force of his troops in concert, while the fight on the right had been made in brigades and divisions. About 12 o'clock one of Forrest's scouts reported that a column of infantry was advancing from the direction of Rossville. With that foresight and promptness which always characterized Forrest, he dashed away with Armstrong's Brigade to meet this new enemy. Gra

The Deas Light Artillery. --This fine company is nearly filled. It is mostly composed of Marylanders, and has been raised mainly by the exertions of Lieut. Blair. The command; we are informed, has been tendered Lieut. Col. Norris Montgomery, late of Baltimore, who has accepted. Col. M. is an officer of fine attainments and much experience, having been for the last twenty years connected with the volunteer military of Baltimore. He is a warm Southern man, and well calculated to make himself popular with his men.
From the Southwest. --Advices from the headquarters of Gen. Bragg, twenty miles below Corinth, state that the retrograde movement of our army was successfully and brilliantly effected. The rear was brought up by Col. Deas, who very handsomely repulsed two attacks of the enemy.
