Saturday, Dec. 10, ltDf-ll T. IN.
The fog began to disappear early in tho forenoon
aiiofdng an unobstrucied view Of our own and the
Rebel positions.
1t being evident that the first ridge Of billie, in tic
rear Of the city, on which the enemy had their guns
posted behind works. could not be carried, ex-
cert by a charge Of infantry, Gen. Sumner as
signed that duty to Gen. FIenchs Division, which
was supported by Gen. Towards.
The troops advanced to their works at ten minutes
before T. o'clock at n brisk run, the enemys guns
opening upon them very rapid fire.
When within musket range, at the bsse OF the
ridge our troops were met by terrible fire from the
Rebel infantry who were posted behind stone wall
and some houses on the right of the line.
This checked tho advance Of our men, and they
fell back to small rayine. but not out of musket
range.
At this time another body Of troops moved to their
assistance in ,plendid style, Notwithstanding large
gars were made in their ranks by the Rebel artillery
When our troops arrived at the first line OF the
Rebel defenses, they double quicked," and with
.'Gxed bayonets" endeavored TO disIodse the Rebels
from their hiding places.
The concentrated fire Of the Rebel artillery and
infantry, which our men were forced 10 lace was
too much Tor them, and the center gave way IN ds'
order but qfterward they were rallied and brought
back.
From That time the fire was spritedly earned o.
and never ceased until after dOrk.
Gen. Franklin, who commanded the attack on the
left, met with better success.
lie succeeded after hard days fight, in driving
the Rebels about one mile.
AT one time the Rebels advanced 10 attack him,
