n ordered a regiment, just armed, from Nashville to Donelson, and on the 6th Colonel Smith's regiment from Tuscumbia, Alabama. He also ordered Floyd, on the 6th, to proceed with his command from Russellville to Clarksville, without a moment's delay, and at the same time sent all the rolling-stock he could command to take the troops. Before any concentration could possibly have been made, Tilghman had surrendered. On leaving Fort Donelson Tilghman ordered Colonel Head to hold his own and Sugg's regiment, together about 750 strong, ready to move at a moment's notice, with two pieces of artillery; and on the morning of the 5th he ordered him, if no advance had been made against Fort Donelson, to take position at the Furnace, half-way on the road to Fort Henry. This gave him more than 4,000 men confronting Grant with his column of 12,000 men, on the east bank of the Tennessee; though, of course, it was in Grant's power to draw reinforcements from Smith, who was on the west bank.

Toward the close of the action I was reinforced by the regiments of Colonels Quarles, and Sugg, and Bailey. The Forty-second, Forty-ninth, and Fiftieth Tennessee; the two latter had been in military man. Colonel Bailey saw the Second Kentucky retreating in great disorder, and moved Sugg's regiment to the face of the works, fronting the enemy; his own regiment was drawn up near the w Second Kentucky. A brisk fire was kept up until sunset, when the firing ceased. A battalion of Sugg's regiment reached the field just before the close of the fight, and deployed to the right of thehat evening. This interior line had timely reinforcements in the arrival of Bailey's, Quarles's, Sugg's, and the balance of Head's regiments, all of which arrived after the forward movement of the Fe

tood by describing it as a machine having a bellows of known capacity, and alternately filled with gas and emptied, the pulsations being counted by a register. O1 it may be described as a cylinder with a reciprocating piston, whose motions are counted, the gas being discharged from the alternate ends of the cylinder as the piston reciprocates. The pressure of gas is the motor, and the changes of direction of motion are effected by induction and eduction valves, much as in a steam-engine. Sugg's (English) photometric gas-meter is designed for experimental use, to show not only the volume of gas which has been consumed at the end of a given time, but also the rate per hour or per minute that the consumption is proceeding. It has two index-hands, one revolving once in a minute, and moved by clock-work; the other making a complete revolution during the passage through the meter of one twelfth foot of gas. The standard of the London companies is that the gas, when burned at the rate o

ce had been accomplished. Two 32-pounder carronades had been mounted on the river, and three 32-pounders were temporarily mounted on the crest of the bluff. The carronades were utterly useless, except against wooden boats at close quarters, while the three guns on the hill, on account of position, could not be made effectual against ironclads. The garrison, in command of Lieutenant-Colonel Randle McGavock, consisted of a part of Colonel Heiman's Tenth Tennessee regiment, the nucleus of Colonel Sugg's Fiftieth Tennessee (then called Stacker's regiment), and Captain Frank Maney's light battery. As there were no heavy artillerists, Captain Beaumont's company of Fiftieth Tennessee had been detailed for that duty. At the time of my arrival, there was considerable excitement at the Fort. Smoke was seen rising a few miles down the river, the long-roll was being beat, and there was hurrying to and fro; companies were getting under arms and into line with the rapidity of zealots, though
