turn our left flank. and To reach the railroad
leading hence ia the direction Of Winchester.
To do this, he extended his lines, which he
enabled 10 do by reason of his great num-
bers. This was unfortunate for US, as il re-
quired corresponding extension of our own
lines to prevent his extreme right from out
tsnking us-a movement on our part which
weakened the force of our resistance along
the whole line o. battle, which finally extend
ed over space of two miles. 1t also render
I'd it the more difficult to bring up reinforce
ments, as the further the enemy exterded his
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
might folds and crush us to death; and at
one time it really looked as If he weud
succeed.
The moment he discovered the enemy's or
der of battle, Gen. Beauregard, it is said, dis
patched orders to Gen. Ewell, on our ex-
treme right to move forward aud turn his
left or rear. At the same time he ordered
Generals Jones. Longstreet and Bnoham, oc-
cupying the centre of our lines, TO cooperate
in this movement, but not 20 move until Gen
Ewell had made she attack. The order to
Gen. Ewell unfortunately mscaTried. The
others were delivered. bat as the movements
of the centre were 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
Attacked in the front. on the flank, and in
the rear, he could not possibly have escaped.

except at the loss of thousands of prisoners
and all his batteries, while the field would
have been strewn with his dead.
Finding that his orders had in some way
failed TO be executed. Gen. Beauregard at
last ordered up portion of the forces which
were Intended 10 cooperate with Gen. Ewell.
IL was late, however. before these reinforce
ments came up. Only one brigade reached
the field before the battle was won. This
was led by Gen. f. X. Smith of Florida for
merly of the United States Army, and was
part of Gen. JObnston's column from Win
chester. They should have reached here the
day before, but were prevented by an acci-
dent on the railroad. They dashed on the
charge with lOud shouts and in the most gall
liant style. About the same time, Maj. ElEey
ttormerly of the Augusta Arsenal looming
down the railroad from Winchester with the
last of JohnsOn's brigades, and hearing the
firing, immediately quit the train and struck
across the country, and, gracious for
tune would have 1t, he encountered the ex-
treme right of the enemy as he was feeling
his way around our flank, and with his brig
ade struck him like a thunder-bolt, full in the
face. Finding be was about to be Out-hanked
himself. The enemy gave way after the second
fire. Meanwhile, Beauregard rallied the CEN
tre and dashed into the very thickest of the
fight, and after him rushed our own brave
boys, with shout that seemed to shake the
very earth The result of this movement
from three distinct points, was to force back
the enemy. who began to retreat, first in good
order, and finally in much confusion. At
this point the cavalry were ordered upon the
pursuit The retreat now became perfect
rout and it is reported that the flying le-
gions rushed past Centreville in the direction
of Fairfax, as if the earth had been opening
behind them. 1t VAS when Gen. Beauregard
led the dnal charge, that his horse was killed
by a shell.

TOn Sunday. the 2lst day of Jnly. 1861.
this great battle was fought, and great vic
tory won by the Confederate troops. Heaven
smiled on our arms, and the God OF battles
crowned our banners with laurels OF glory
Gen. Johnston had arrived the preceding
ddy with about half of the force he had de-
tailed from Winchester, and was the senior
officer in command. He magnanimOusly in
sisted, however, that Gen. Beauregard's 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. Gen. Johnston was nominally in COM
mand. Bnauregard was really the officer and
hero of the day.
Al half-past six in the morning the enemy
opened fire from battery planted on hill
beyond Bull Run. and n arly 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, upon our left. At ten O'Clock,
another battery was pushed forward, and
Ope ned fire a short distance to the left of the
other, and near the road leading North to
Centreville. This was a battery OF riff d
guns, and the object of its fire was the same
as that of the other. They fired prOmiscu-
OuslV into the woods and gorges on this, the
Southern. side of Bull Run, seeking to create
the lhpIeSsiou iheIeOJ that oui 'cH'i L "OUi,'
be attacked, and thus prevent Us from send
ing reinlOrcements to our left. where the real
attack was to be made. Beauregard was not
deceived by the maunuvTe.
1t might not be amss to say that Bull Run
or creek is North of this place, and runs
nearly due East, curving around the juno
tiOn, the nearest part of which is about 81
miles. The Stone Bridge is some seven miles
distant, in a North-westerly direction, upon
which our left wing rested. Mitchel's ford is
directly North. and distant four miles, by the
