and all his batteries, while the field would
have been strewn with his dead.
Finding that his ord-rs had in some way
failed to be executed, Gen. Beauregard at
last ordered up portion of the forces which
were intended to cooperate with Gen. Ewell. 9.
IL was late, however. before these reinforce

the field before the battle was won. This
was led by Gen. Z. X. Smith, of Florida, for
merry of the United S'ates Army, and was
part of Gen. JohnstOn's column from Win
chester They should have reached here the
day before, but were prevented by an acct

leading hence ia the direction Of Winchester.
To do this, he extended his lines, which be
was enabled 10 do by reason OF his great num-
bers. This was unfortunate fCr Us. as it re-
quired a corresponding extensi, our own
lines to prevent his extreme rig from out
fianking us-a movement on our part which
weakened the force of our resistance along
the whole line oc battle which finally extend
ed over space of two miles. 1t also render
ed it the more difficult to bring up reinforce
ments, as the further the enemy extended bis
right, the greater the distance our reserve
forces had to travel to counteract the move
ment.
This effort to turn our flank was pressed
with great determination for five long, weary
hours, during which the tide of battle ebbed
and flowed along the entire line with alter
nate fortunes The enemY's column contin-
ued to stretch away to the left, like huge
anaconda. seeking TO envelope us within Its
mighty folds and crush US to death; and at
one time it really looked as If he would
succeed.

Ewell had made The attack. The order to
Gen. Ewell unfortunately mscarried. The
others were delivered, but as the movements
of the centre we're to be regulated entirely
by those on the right, nothing was done at
all. Had the orders to Gen. Ewell been re-
ceived and carried out, and our entire force
brought upon the field, we should have de-
stroyed the enemy's army almost literally

=On Sunday the 2Ist day of Jnly. 1861,
this great battle was fought, and a great vic
tory won by the Confederate troops heaVeh
smiled on our arms, and the God OF baiiles
crowned our banners with laurels OF glory.
Gen Johnston had arrived the preceding
day with about half of the force be had de-
tailed from Winchester and was the senior
officer in command He magnanimOusly in-
sisted. however, that Gen. Beauregards pre-
vious plan should be carried out, and he was
guided entirely by the judgment and superior
local knowledge of the latter. While. there
fore. Sen. Johnston was nomlnally IN COM
mand Beauregard was really the oIIlcer ana
hero of the day.
At halfpast six IN the morning the enemy
opened fire from a battery planted on NH
beyond Bull Run. and nearly opposite the
centre of our lines The battery was intend
ed merely to ..beat the bush, and to occupy
our attention. while he moved heavy col
umn towards the Stone Bridge, over the
same creek. np0r err left At ten o'clock,
another battery was pushed forward, and
oDeaed fire n short distance TO the lett Of the
other. and near the road leading North to
