A .ontra,t.

The battle Of Cedar Creek-we pre-
sume it will be designated by that name
was one Of the most singular that has
occurred during the prslent war. In-
deed, we doubt whether lis exact eoun-
terpart can anywhere be s9nnd in his
tory. For an army that was surprised,
driven in confusion out Of strong forti-
fiea,ions, with the loss Of guns, muni-
tions Of war and transportation-its left
wing crushed, its centre broken in an
unavaihng effort to stem the torrent Of
attack-to rally without any reinforce
ments Of fresh men, turn upon its exul-
tant foe, aud in one magnificent charge
sweep him, as il were, from the face Of
the earth, recovering all the ground los,,
and capturing over fifty pieces of artil-
lery, including its own guns which had
fallen into the hands of the enemy, is an
achievement as anomalous as II is
grand Yet this, in brief, is the trus
history Of this celebrated battle.
How is it accounted for? The ult.
mate success of the Union army is at
tribuable alone to the magnetic cour-
age and inspired genius Of its COM
mander-Gen Sheridan. Distant many
miles from the scene of strife, when his
subordinates permitted their commands
TO be surprised, the roar OF artillery con.
veyed TO his ears the 6rst intelligence
that battle was imminent or already
raging. Mounting his horse he rode Is
or 20 miles to find his men scattered
aud overpoweEed-the roads filed with
stragglers and blocked with wagons, au
balances, and the debris Of defeated
army. Compreheudihg at . glance the
condition Of affairs, bis first move wa
to inspire his men with new hope anS
courage. To do this ne rode rapidly
down the lines, from the left to the right
swinging his hat and saying encour
aging words t. the dispirited but gaIlan
boys. His glorious example wa
victory incarnated, and his appear
anee was everywhere hailed with th'
widest enthusiasm. Finding his nobl,
army could still be relied upon, in spit
! of its misfortune, the General rapidl
made dispositions for renewing the bat
tie, aud at 81 o'clock gave the word 70
