THE 4TH REGIMENT AT FREDERICKs.
BURGH.

We are permitted to copy the following
from private letter, written by Robert
Coffee, member of the 4th Reg, and
formerly of Morristown - .
Friday, about noon, we crossed the
Rappahannock, some two miles below the
city of Fredericksburg. After dark we
got orders to relieve the 9th VT, which
had been out and formed picket line, and
been sklrmishing all day. At o'clock
my company went on post. We had our
picket line within twenty rods of the reb-
el line, during the night. At s o'clock
we we're relieved and went back to the re.
serve, and went to getting US some break
fast. After we had just got fairly at it,
rebel battery began to shell our side,
and advance strong line of skirmishers.
"Fall in," was the word given, and
away went the breakfast, not into our
hungry bodies, but into the mud, and
away we went on double quick, out to
support our men. Our artillery silenced
the enemies, and we drove back the skirm-
ishers. We now got into a ditch most
full of water, to protect us from the rebel
sharpshooters, in the wood in our front.
We laid here until about o'clock, when
we saw our men forming on our left, in
limo Of battle, to attack the enemy, con-
cealed in the woods. Our men attacked
that position with q column six lines of
battle deep; (meaning by this that they
were in six lines. one behind the other,
within some ten or twelve rods of each
other.) and before that our men gained
those woods the first four lines were COM
pletely cut down, loosing quite third Of
the men that they advanced with. The
other two lines succeeded in reaching and
advancing into the woods some thirty
rods, driving the rebels out Of two lines
of entrenchments. They now supposed
that they had won the battle, when, sud.
denly, they were attacked on their left
flank by an overwhelming force, which
succeeded in driving back our men behind
our batteries.
Now for the part that the 4th VT play.
ed but before attempt to describe it,
let me try and describe to you the situa-
tion. The range Of hills in the rear oI
Fredericksburg is from 100 to 800 fcctiu

earth-works. Their artillery completely
commanded the field where the 4th Vt.
was. This field was held by the 4th, and
three batteries-the rest of the Division
lying back towards the river, behind some
ridges, which gave them some little pro-
lection, but were good deal exposed to
shell. You now, perhaps, have some lit
tie idea of our position AS their artil-
lery commanded the field which we were
holding, the attack had to be made on the
left, out of the range of their guns on
the hill, on the right. If larger force
than skirmish line had come out on the
right in the rear of the 4th, they would
have drawn the fire of the artillery on
the right. But single regiment deploy-
ed as skirmishers gave but small mark
to open upon, consequently it did not draw
their fire. Well when our men advanced
into the woods rebel battery came out to
give our men raking cross fire, and with
it came large regiment of infantry. The
fire from these would have been awful for
it would have moved down our men, as
they were so largely massed in so close a
place.
Before us was what we ought to do, and
must do, and that was to drive back the
battery and infantry before they opend
on our men. To do it, we must advance
right up in the face of those guns that
would pour death and destruction into ou,
ranks The order "toraoard' was given
and not a man was seen to shrink. Stead.
