The division is composed of the Stonewall Brigade, under Brigadier-General J. A. Walker, and Stuart's, J. M. Jones's, and Stafford's brigades, with four pieces of Anderson's artillery.

The enemy was in position and opened the attack before our forces knew of their presence.

They not only failed of their object, but were driven from the field with considerable slaughter. Their loss was certainly double that
