 -Brigadier General H. w. Vessels, who commanded the Central Brigade of General Cnsey's Division at the battle of Fair Oaks, had his horse shot from under him, and received himself bullet wound in the shoulder. He had been transferred to this Division only two days before the battle, and had command If brigade composed of raw troops, and with their regiments greatly thinned by disease and death. Nevertheless, in spite of these draw backs, hard. ly known to his men or they to him, we are as- sured General Vessels fought with most distin- guished bravery, and although New York cor pondents can recognize the merits and deeds of only New York officers, when General McClel- Ian shall come to make up his account of the doings of this Division in that terrible charge of the enemy, we shall see the name of General Vessels among those most honorably men toned. .s. ...- |. .a.
