Early in the action the rebels made an
impetuous charge on the famous Loornis
battery, and FIVE out of six ParroEt guns
were captured. Capt. Van Pelt, COM.
manding the battery, was taken prisonef.
At two o'clock the contest became ter
rife. The roar of musketry was far
more terrific than at Stone Run. 81
At half past two the division in the
centre was hard pushed, broken. and re-
treated in disorder. s's =
Col Barnett succeeded In planting .
battery, and soon succeeded In checking
the enemy, who in turn were driven in
disorder over the same ground.
Davis division was driven back with
great loss, and every gun Of the sth In
diana battery captured, when his forces
rallied, pushed the enemy back and re-
took the guns. @1 @r ~ g s'.1..s .sssl.z2 :.

cd failed TO regain his positiosa I.
Our lines were pressed severely and
wavered. The rebels exnltinG oveEat their

with cheers.
They advanced along the whole Gnes
when n whitening fire OF nuskesvy rolled
from light to left, and until s 5oi'clock the
fighting was terrific. ~
