canned last night few miles east OF Centre

that p9int CeutreyiIle was passed IN safety,
and the troops turned from the Little river

On tiie road information was received that
A masked battery was on the left of the road
ahead. and Col Richardson. in command Of
the fourth brigade, was ordered to reconnoi
ter. while the remainder OF the division re-
mained in the vicinity Of Centreyille. Col.
Richardson proceeded with three companies,
the Massachusetts, First, first being the kel
sev county Fusileers and National Guards
They passed across IN open raYlne and again
entered the road, which was densely sur
rounded by woods, when they were received
BIZ a raking FIRE from tie left, killing mum
Der Of the advance.
They gallantly sustained their position. and
covered the retreat Of brass cannon Of Sher-
mans battery, the horses having been com
pletely disabled by the fire. until relieved by
the Michigan Second and New York Twelfth,
when they fell back The federal forces then
took position on the Il p Of hill. Two ri
fed guns were planted in front, supported by
Capt Brackets company B. second cavalry,
with a line Of infantry composed Of the
Michigan Second and the New York Twelfth
some distance in the rear. A steady fire was
kept up on both sides in this position.
The rebels had two batteries Of eight
pieces in a position commanding the road.
They used their guns well, except that they
fred sometimes too high, but were gailantly
faced by our troops They did not reply to
our regular FIRE for half an hour, during
which time they were receiving large rein
forcements La the meantime, Richardson :
brigade recOnnoitered the roads
While We were again thus advancing we
were met with a raking fire. Oar guns we're
again put in position and poured grape and
canister among the enemy until the supply
was exhausted.
These guns were commanded by Captain
Ayers. Gen. Tyler commanded in person
and acted gallantly. Capt. Ayers, of the

any time engaged. The rebel force is estima.
ted at four thousand Col Wilcox s division,
