"A part Of the history OF the times,
and that our people may read and un.
derstand for themselves tho tender mer-
cies which our elromies offer us, we
print Lincoln's letter. II is like. him
in vuigprity and terocity. But, despair.
ing Of tcirg able to do justice TO such
a sul,jeci, We extract the following com
ments Of the Richmond Examiner:

'FRoM ABoxE.-We have information
through gentleman who left General
Bragg, headquarters at an early hour
yesterday, merning, hat a battle was
then expected TO take place durine the
day. The enemy appeared to Be in
force at the Eastern. base Of the meun.
tains.in Walker county, or rather ia "A
gap, and at four o'clock our forces wexe
disposed IN, line of battle in his ffon.,
four miles west Of Lafay etie. Our in
formant, however, thinks no fp6t oc-
Cured, as he heard no cannonasaine
during the day. The Yankee force in
front Of General Bragg was in all prob.
ability only sufficient to hold the aap.
and placed there for that puppose. We
are still under the impsessicn that Ro-
sencrans will give no fight in that guar
ter, and that the column against which
/ attention seems, to be- wholly directed
is only sman portion Of his army.
We have pretty reliable Information
that a cavalry skifmish occurred few
miles shove Dalteh yesterday, in.which
General Forrest wal. very slightly wound
/ ed. No rsstlts were reported beyond
| tl,is. The enemy had advanced South
= below Tuanei Hin, and had burned the
eating house at Catoosa. The force OF
the enemy moving down the. State road
is estimated TO be three or four thou.

with that distinguished chieftaia tho
haTdships and perils, both Of the march
and of battle. from Mechanicsville to the
bloody heights of Gettysburg. Tie
brigade has won for itself, on many
hard fought fields, ,en enviable reputs-
tion for courage and gallantry, and its
name should be inscribed in cha, acters
pf light upon the fairest page Of its
country's history. as A part of her Jews
els of which she may justly be proud /.
In the late battles it foug ght with its
accustomed obstinacy and firmness-
worthy of their former leader-ihe
brave and chivdric Gregg. 1t captur-

plimented by Maj. Gen. Pender, a SOL

said it had saved the credit of his divis-
