bY assault. His artillery. he 5aiu, was equal
to any in extent and efficiency. and his men
outnumbered ours FIVE to one. TIC knew to
what u condition they were reduced. rs he had
captured Gen. Gardeners courier sent out with
dispatches to Gen. Johnston. As these dos
patches wero in cipher, it is probable tina,
Banks exaggerated the amount Of information
he had derived from them.
Gen. Gardner replied that his duty required
bin to defend the post, aud lie must refuse t.
entertain any such proposition.
On the morning Of the 18th just before day,
the fleet and all the land batteries which the
encmy had succeeded in erecting at 100 to 30t
yards from our hreastworks. opened fire ut The
same time. About daylight, under COY or Of
the smoke, the enemy advanced along the
whole line, ard in many places approached
within ten feet Of our works. Our brave fell
lows we're wide awake, and opening upon
them with "buck and ball." drove them back
in confusion, a great number of them being
left dead in the bitches. One entire division
and brigade werc ordered to charge the pis:
tiun Of the lst Mississippi and the 10th Ala
bama, and by the mere physical pressure o.
numbers SOME Of them got within the works
hut &ll those were Immediately killed. Every
regiment did its duty nobly, but this was tho
main attack. Alter sharp cuntes5 Of tvs,
hours tho enemy were everywhere repulset
and Withdrew to their old line, but heavy
diminishing was kept up m1.t Of the day.
Alter this rcpulse Gen. Banks sent no Ca
of truce to bury his dead which remained ex
posed between the lines for threcday At th'
end of that time Gen. Gardner sent II flag tt
Banks, requesting that hswuuld remove them
Banks replied that he lad no dead there. Gen
Gardner then desired Gen. Bealc tn send f.:
flag to Gen. Anger and request him TO bury th'
dead of his division, which lay in front OF thu
LIST and 18th Augur replied that he did no
think he had any dead there, but he woult
grant cessation Of hostiities 20 .sccrtain.-
Accordingly parties were detailed to pass TIL
dead bodies over to the Yankees, and eco ODD
were removed from this portion of the works
and with them one wounded man, who hac
been lying there three days withou. water, ant
was Ay-blown from head To foot. 1t was sur
missed that Banks was unwilling that his mel
should witness the carnage which had been
committed, but if that were the case he onl,
made matters worse by thi, delay, for muci
evaporation was manifested at the sight Of thu
wounded man, and great many were heard
TO say that if that was the way the WOUNDED
were to he treated they wanted to. be out of tn
