He has been with us since our organisation
at Camp Dennison, and the men placed the
utmost confidence in him. Out part OF the
programme was TO force 4 pebdseA over q
marrow stone bridge which hpsnlisd the An
tietam, directly ia front Of ihS kdfbts, occu-
pied BY the rsbeis The 6Eht sla athis place
was for awhile tetd blc, bet fnfilY our troops
charged, took ths bridge Snd drove the enemy
from the ketahas. -
Had the troops that made this charge been
supported In time they would have captured
the enemies batteries Somsof the men had
their hands already on the Eans and had it
not been for . new rsgimsnt, only thrss weeks
in the service, giving way in the center, the
enemy would have been completely routed
Aod their guns captured, as twas they wers
forced 70 relihqdiSh apart Of taS ground they
had gained.
Our part OF the programme being accom-
plished We had only to hold our position which
we did until relieved,by fresh troops. Every
house, barn, and hsystaek for miles around
were converted into hospitals, and which were
crowded to excess All along the whole line
the ground was strewen with dead and wound
ed. On the right where the enemy massed
their troops in solid column, their dead lay
in heaps They lay side by side Just as they
stoodin line Of battle. II has been the hardest
battle fought during the war, and the rebels
were beaten, A good many believe that If
the battle had been renewed the next day that
the whole rebel army would have been captur-
ed but Mcclellan knew bis own business best
and 1 suppose that il the thing could have
been did" he would have done It.
The following is the list of killed and
wounded in Company A, llth Regiment:
Ritled-John Hammon-Antietam.
Wounded at South Mountain. John Kra-
mer in the leg James Wyriek, shot in hip;
Milton Smith, shoulder; Robert Frank, in

MISCELLANEOUS
TO TIE TAXPAYERS
OF THE
CONFEDERATE STATES

WE were laboring under a misappre
w hension in regard to the require
ments of the Confederate law, when w
announced in our hand-bills that al
persons owning less than Five Hundred
Dollars were exempt from taxation
We now wish it to be distinctly under
stood that all persons owning or having
the control of any property coming
within the list prescribed by law, ar,
required to make returns of said pro
perty. and be taxed accordingly, excep
heads of families owning less than Five
Hundred Dollars worth.
Those who have not been previously
notified, can make their returns to us a
the places we have yet to visit, accord
ing to the old schedule, or when we re
visit the Precincts of the county.
JOHN GRILLs will again meet the tax
payers Of the District known as Dono-
hos, at the following times and places
Stuart's Draft, January Sd; Waynes-
boro', 4th; Sherando, 9th Greenville,
18th Midway, Sth; Middlebrook, 9th
Newport, 10th; Swope's Depot, 18th !;
Deer1ield, 18th; Craigsville, 18th.
SAMUEL G. HARPRR will again meet
the taxpayers of the District known as
Stover's, at the following times and
places:
New Hope, January I'd; Waynes-
boro', Sd; Mt. Meridian, 4th; Mt. Sid
ney, 9th; Spring Hill, 9TH; MT. Scion,
9th; Parnassus, 9th; Churchville, 10th !;
Fishersville, 18th.
We have given the people all the
time we can possibly allow to make
their returns in, without mourning d
heavy penalty upon ourselves. The law
requires us to assess the taxable proper
ty of the county, and make out the
books by the LIST of February.
We, therefore, warn all persons that
this is positively the last opportunity
they will have to give in their returns.
Those who fail to make their returns
within the time allowed, will certainly
be reported to our Collectors, and re-
quired to pay double taxes.
Property will be assessed at it's mar
ketable value the LIST day of October,
1861.
We have instructions from the Secre-
tary Of the Treasury to allow no credit
for debts; and all property held the list
day OF October, 1861, must be returned.
