Later in the d,y they fierce assailed tn
right centre, and were again repulsed
Both sides spent the remainder of The day il

During The night the enemy appeared to b

maud5 were distinctly heard in our camps ;but
su5pecting ruse, Gen. ROsencrans threw Bent
leys brigade of Van CleVe's division across tn
river on our left, with supports, where they re
sisted.
At about 10 O'clock this morning the enem,
made another formidable dash at our center
but were handsomely repulsed
At between and o'clock this afternoon TT
mendOus mass of the enemy was suddenly pre
cipitated upon Bentley's brigade, and drove il
after gallant struggle, clear back across tn
river Negley's superb division, which had a.

roared along the whole line, and was carried i
magnificent volume from left to right, throug
the forests and back again.
