on of the affair. In the preceding volume we left the Confederate privateer Alabama at the end of November, 1862, slipping away from the Federal sloop-of-war San ime, he left without any protection whatever those well-known points where the Alabama was sure to make rich captures, such as the whaling-station near the Azores, wy of fighting under favorable conditions. It was, in fact, the sails of the Alabama that Bell had espied on the evening of the 11th of January, and in ordering th subterfuge, for the Hatteras, which was only within seventy-five yards of the Alabama, had scarcely lowered a boat for the purpose of verifying this strange assertie following day. The struggle was of short duration. The heavy guns of the Alabama, admirably served by gunners who had acquired much experience in England, soonion, was obliged to surrender.

Law, entrusted with this task, penetrates into the small valley of Plum Run, to ascend it again between the slopes of Devil's Den and those of the Round Tops; his brigade is reinforced by the two regiments that have been detached from that of Robertson; he has under his command soldiers from Texas and Alabama, tried in various combats, ardent as the sun under which they were born, indefatigable and insensible to danger,—resembling, in one word, the brilliant Hood, who has long been training them and is encouraging them by his presence. Ward had only placed a single regiment, the Fourth Maine, before Little Round Top in the bottom of the valley where the Plum Run flows, but he has had time to reinforce it with the Fortieth New York, which De Trobriand has sent to his assistance when attacked by
