drive back our columns. IL WA in vain Our men
pressed forward and drove them from their position.

cpi,aton that they bad not time 10 burn the bridge,
and another fierce engagement was fought with the
river between the two armies. Their artillery was

approach, but our brave boys charged impetuously,
regardless Of the brlo'3, grare, and canister, which
