to fight, and if my orders had been obeyed
am confident that Lees army might have
been defeated. My plan was to cross at
Germania Ford, take the road to Orange
Court House, and push on rapidly, and, if
Lee should send forces to stop me, to attack
him in force and destroy that portion of his
army before he could concentrate the
whole Of it to oppose me. But one
Of my corps commanders failed me. He
was commanded to marth at six o'clock in
the morning, but did not come till eight
o'clock. He was directed, if Lee sent forces
to oppose him. to attack at once. Lee did
send Ewell down the Orange c. II. road
just as expected, but my General stood
and looked at him all day and did not fight;
SO we lost twenty hours and gave Lee
notice and time to concentrate his army and
take so strong a position that it could not
be carried without great loss; and the risk
Of losing our army in such fight would
have damaged us and encouraged the rebels
and prolonged the war. So gave the or
der to retreat. The corps commander re-
ferred to was Gen. French, who was proba-
bly, too drunk to know or to do his duty.

The Coroner's Inquest at Dayton.

DAYTON, Jan. THE inquest upon the
body of Mrs. Nippenger was concluded to-
day, after examining Samuel Stevenson,
train dispatcher, and Mr.. Brooke, operator
at the depot office in Cincinnati. The testi-
mony of these two witnesses conhicted
with that of the Carlisle operator, who tes-
titled that when he reported to the Cincin-
natl office that Potter was going on the side
track, he added, 'wait, and l will sce."-
Brooke testified that he did not hear the
words ''wait, and l will see" Stevenson
said he acted upon the report of the Oper-
ator at Carlisle that Potter was on the side
track, and Immediately ordered Sanders to
leave Dayton. The verdict of the jury was
that the deceased came to her death through
the negligence Of Samuel Stevenson i'm not
knowing certainly that Potter's train was
at Carlisle station, and held there with pos
tive orders before telegraphing Sanders to
leave Dayton. The Carlisle operator was
dismissed this morning.
