Letter from Gen. EarIr.

HAMILTON's CROSSING, May IL d,

To the Editors Of The Enquirer:
HAMILTON's CROSSING, May ii. 1863.
GENTLEMEN: The statements Of correspond.
ents ignorant Of the real facts, or writing in
the interests Of particular commands, too
often form the basis of newspaper comments
and of public opinion in regard to military
operations; and events follow SO rapidly on
the heels OF each other that first impressions
rarely give way to more correct views
founded on authentic accounts. This con-
sideration induces me 70 place on record q
correction of one or two of the misrepresenta.
tions contained in Communications to several
of the Richmond papers from correspondents
at Fredericksburg, in regard to the capture Of
Maryes Hill, on the Sd inst.
1t is stated in these communications that
Barksdale's brigade was left without support
to defend the heights in rear of Fredericks-
burg, and line Of two miles in length. The
fact is, that when informed at light on the
morning Of the I'd by Cen Barksdsle that the
enemy had thrown a bridge across Fred
sr;cksburg, immediately sent Hsyss Lou
isiana brigade to his assistance, and Gen Will
cox, with three regiments of his brigade, came
down from above. This left only three bri-
Qades on the long and comparatively weak
line from the heights in rear Of Fredericks-
burg to the mouth of the Massaponax to
confront the heavy column of the enemy on
this aide at the mouth of Deep Run, while
of another to defend the strong and compare
lively short line in rear Of and above Frede-
ricksburg Barksdsls's brigade occupied the
position which was strongest in natural and
artificial defsnces, and was better guarded by
artillery than any other. There were no re;
serves for any part of the line, which extended
over several miles, and military men will under
stand the d dficulties of the position. Without
meaning to cast censure on Barksdals's bri
gade, even by implication, will state that
my division did not lose Marye's Hill, but one
Of my brigadss (Gordon's, formerly Lawton's,)
recaptured it before 9 O'Clock on the next
morning, and three of my bngades (Hayss,
Hoke's, and Gordons,) bore the brunt of the
fight when the enemy was driven back across
the river, Bsrksdale's bri sade and Smiths, of
my own division, having been left to keep the
enemy In check from the direction of Frede.
ricksburg. Having done all in my power to
avert the disaster, and TO arrest aud retrieve
it, am willing to abide the judgment OF the
commanding General upon my own conduct
and that of my division. Respectfully,
ia. EARLY, Maj. Gen. T. A. G. 8.

Louis Napoleon had demanded of tho Wash

Minister, Mr.. Adams, in granting the pass to
