w
following description of the grand charge of
our forces:
A cloud Of smoke enyelorpd the ba tile field,
which almost hid the colnbatants, and our
brave little garrison watched its dense folds
with intense anxiety, waiting for the grand
charge of thousands which they expected, and
stood ready to receive. AT about clock ii
came A coIumn of about 5000 men emerged
from the forest, and charged, on run, at the
east narricade, next to the river. Their ap-
proach was the signal for breathless anxiety
within the breastwOrks. The gallant band
spoke not a word, but knelt, every man of
them with gun leveled and finger on the
trigger. The tick Of n watch might have been
heard the length of that inheSihlc line, and
silence reigned nnbroken, except by the
whispers which directed each man to aim
steadily, and hold his fire until the order
WAS given. The swiftly advancing CO.
lumn, EN- boldened by the silence of the foe
gave forth loud hurrahs and dashed up al
most to the muzzles of he guns. Scarcely
fifty PAGES INTERVIEWED, and they seemed on
the point of storming over the works, when
voice OF command rang out and Il line OF iight
opened across the breastworks and ran along
the entire line like a fash of lightning. 1t
was like an avalanche of fire sweeping
through the tall prairie grass. The men
went down, column after column. They
struggled to rise again, and fell under the
trampling feet of their comrades. who, still
impetuous, rushed onward to the fray. Ike
smoke had hardly arisen before every gun
loaded, ana again INC IuuEueIouS opoi ui
of bullets went Oh it's deadly errand, sheath
ed in flame aud smoke. Ii crushed through
the ssrried ranks. and moved the Leaders
down by columns. Still they rallied, and, LED
on by daring officers. again trod over the
dead bodies Of their comrades with desps-
rate energy. Again the smoke arose, and Il
third time the terrible vollsy was poured in
TO their foes The ground was piled with
dead and dying, and IN despair the whole
body broke up In disorder aud retreatod -
They rushed down the hill with IN In pvtu-
osity which betokensd diSanay and fear, and
were not rallied until they gained ths refuge
Of the woods again.
In the meantime the other eide Of the ell
trenchments was receiving obstinate alta cks
from Il body OF several thousand rebels, VINO
were enkconsed behind the hill upon which
the hospital stood. They had planted artil-
lery, which swept our works with terrible
force, and were with difficulty kept from
charging over the bnrricadss. The range OF
our guns was such as To render the attempt a
dn igsrous one, and they contented themselves
with aWxs1nE mors fayorubls opportunity.
