rebels made several attempts to reform
their shattered ranks; but on the deliye-
ry of our volleys they uniformly broke
and run. Driven out of the slashes, they
were drawn back still further, and held in
their new position till the balance of their
brigade came up, and, although reinforc-
ed, they still continued their retreat until
the ground lost by Gen. Couch on that
side of the road had been recovered.
While this was TRANSFERRING the enemy
was gaining ground on the right side Of
the road, and the brigade was in danger
of being flanked. On seeing this Gene

Statement of Colonel Champlin, Third

The following statement Of Colonel
Champlin, in regard to the late battle be-
fore Richmond, is taken from the cores
pondence of the New York Herald:
CATER COUGHS division had fallen back
on Saturday, Berry's brigade was brought
forward, consisting of the Second, Third
and Fifth Michigan and Thirty seventh
New York Volunteers. The Third was
thrown into the battle in advance, and
about half an hour before the others ar
rived. General Kearney directed them
to attack the enemy on tho left side Of
Bottoms Bridge road. Concealed among
the fallen timber, the rebels opened fire on
the right wing of my regiment at dis
lance of ten rods. The line was rapidly
formed on double-quick while advancing
towards the enemys position. The cen
ter and left wing extended into thick
growth Of pines. BY tho time the lef!
wing had formed, the regiment was with
in thirty feet of the slashes. The enemy
Immediately opened terrible fire on the
center and left. This fire was most muir
derous, and here occurred our principal
loss. The men received the fire without
wavering, and, before the enemy had time
to reload, the right charged upon them
with the bayonet, reserving their fire un.
I'll the concealed foe were started from
their cover, and as soon as they were in
sight delivered destructive and effective
fire. The enemy broke and ran like sheep
from the slaughter, leaving tho slashes

Report from The Good. Samaritan. I"


Ira MAxFIELD, ESQ.,, of Lamont, call
ed on us yesterday, on his return from
trip To the st. Louis Hospital, of the
above significant cognomen. He found
his son, LEMUEL, who has been under med
ical treatment there for several weeks past,
much improved in health. He will be fit
for duty again, say his physicians, in three
weeks time. He also found there sever
al other invalids from our own and Kent
counties, among whom he mentions Cor
poral MCKAY, Of Georgetown, and JAMES
X. SEWARD, of Chester, both doing well,
and will soon be reported fit for duty.
For the information of those wishing
to visit the Hospitals at st. Louis, con.
tanning invalid friends, they can do so at
half fares, on the railroads, by obtaining,
on their way thither, either hero or at Chi
cago, the name of some responsible per-
son known to the Railroad Company,
stating name, object of visit, &c, and in
return a certificate from the Surgeon Of
the Hospital, setting forth the same facts.
The entire expense Of the trip will be from
$50 to $25. No charge for entertain
ment at the Hospital.
Mr.. M. dwells cmphatically on the
comfort enjoyed by the wounded, suffer
ing soldiers, in partaking Of the little del
icacies sent them By the hands of absent,
loved ones, and those who feel for the
well-being Of those who are bleeding aud
dying in their country's service.
The ladies of ST. Louis, are, indeed,
angels of mercy to the sufferers, visiting,
encouraging, caring for them as the gen
tie, benevolent, sympathyziug alonc can
do.
We hope the citizens Of Lamont, and
others, who are preparing box of dain-
ties and necessaries for the sick and
wounded, of our own Valley, will do SC
with an unsparing hand. 1t is some ones
father, brother, or dear friend, if not oul
Own, that will respond TO the act with
deep, heartfelt gratitude, and call the Civ
er "bessed." Dainties of all kinds,
shirts, sheets, slippers, &C., he says, are
much needed.
On his return Mr.. NJ met with Capt.
JonN BRowN, Jr. He has "seen SER
vice since leaving Grand River-walks
with two canes-his limbs having be-
come enfeebled and stitlened By rheuma-
tism-has lost thirty pounds of flesh, and
is otherwise badly damaged. He is on
his way TO visit his friends East. Capt.
B. gives good report of "DAvID," the
German, who enlisted at Lamont, and of
all other Michigan boys. They have
proved themselves "true metal" in Ar
kansas, as elsewhere.

lation in the State of Michigan, or else
where, for lis literary aspirations. The
number of its public prints 4" beats all ma
ter" in the language of Deacon Home
spun. Sec the list: The Clarion, Hol-
lander, Grond,Oet, Paarl, NewS, and
Union, (about to bc,) weeklies, and a
monthly or two, three of them at Grand
Haven, each claiming the largest circula-
ton now, or soon to have, continually
sending out their ink marks TO enlighten
creation and induce the inhabitants there
of to be heroic, patriotic and good. If
the pen is mightier than the sword TO
say nothing of the scissors,) we surely
have the instruments in sufficient numbers
in our midst to efeetually probe the pub
lie mind, sever all corrupt aud fostering
moral and political excrescences, defend the
right, condemn the wrong, and allure TO
sobriety and virtue, the Knights of the
Quill themselves leading the way.
Surely, Ottawaians ought, with all these

ding their light about their mental hori-
zon, to be worthy pattern of general in
