THE ENEMY N soxE FORCE.
Here the enemy was found in consid.

though narrow, was of considerable
depth, and the bridge crossing it was
fired upon our approach Two pieces

Ten or fifteen minutes sharp firing
and charge by the Tenth New York
was sufficient to carry the position,
when the enemy fell back to Hicks
ford. on the Meherrin river, where
works of considerable strength and
magnitude were discovered.
THE sKIEMIsH AT THE MEHERRIE EVER
For the defence of this position the
garrison of the whole road had been
collected, together with the reserve mi
litia and two brigades of Hampton's
cavalry, with several pieces of artillery.
General Davies, commanding the adj
vance, pushed on rapidly from Three
Creek river to this point, skirmishing
the whole distance, using for this pur>
pose the First New Jersey regiment, I'M
der Col. JaneWsy, which was dismount
cd.
From the forts heavy fire of artil-
lery was opened with some effect To
ascertain the exact position Of the forts
General Davies ordered a mounted
charge of the First Massachusetts, regi-
ment Nothing could excel the gallant
manner in which they obeyed the or
der; and they had fully accomplished
the purpose, and Major Sargent was
just giving the order to fall back when
he was struck in the shoulder by a
piece of shell and MORALLY wounded
THE ENEMY DRIVEN OUT OF BIS RIFLE PITS
Other charges were made by the
Tenth New York, First Pennsylvania
and First New Jersey cavalry, by which
the enemy was driven from his rifle
pits and compelled to take refuge in
the forts, and disposition was being
made Of the troops to carry the works
by assault, when General Warren ar
rived upon the ground and put stop
TO further proceedings.
General Warren decided that he had
accomplished all for which he had been
sent out, and to carry the works by
assault would involve loss of life tco
serious for the benefit we would gain
by it. AS it was now nearly night all
our force, with the exception of part
of the first brigade, were Withdrawn to
the north side of Three Creek river
and bivouacked for the night
The weather, which had been disa-
greeable and rainy the whole time,
now became dreadfully cold, with hail
and snow falling the whole night, max
ing it difficult for even the most COM
fortably provided to keep warm.

The enemy followed us with infantry
and cavalry, and made several feeble
attempts to impede our progress, but
few shell world drive him back. Upon
reaching the vicinity of Jarratt's sta

ry, with the Second brigade of cavalry,
taking one road to Sussex Court House.
while the other two brigades of cavalry
marched on a parallel road, covering
the left flank of the infantry. Two
pieces of artillery were opened from

column was about to turn off from the
Halifax road; but Colonel Avery, with
the Tenth New York, charged them,
and the rapid manner in which the
guns were limbered up and gotten out
of the way alone saved them from
capture.
THE ENEMY ATTACKS THE INFANTRY REAR.
A march of twenty miles brought us
once more in junction with the infantry
at Sussex Court House. The enemy
charged into the rear of the infantry,
Saturday night, but foand them pre-

rHr SUCCESS OF THE ExrEDIrIoy.


The whole expedition was conducted
in the most able manner and was a
most perfect success. The rebels will
be unable TO get any supplies from the
direction of Weldon, and the destruc.
ton of the Southside road, which will
soon be accomplished, will insure the
evacuation of Petersburg and Rich
mond.
cannot think it was the intention
10 90 to Weldon when we started, as
only four days rations and forage was
carried In fact, nothing more could
be gained by going there unless it was
intended 10 capture Wilmington, for
which we were wholly Unproyided with
rations As it is, the enemy will be I'M
able to use the road this winter, as the
season is too far advanced toreconstruct
a road so thoroughly destroyed
CONDUCT or THE CAVALRY
Too much credit cannot be awarded
10 the gallant men composing General
Greggs cavalry for the part they per.
/ formed in this expedition In fact
they did all the fighting and picket
duty for the whole expedition Great
labor devolved upon staff officers of
cavalry, who were obliged TO be riding
constantly in carrying orders from one
part of the column 70 another, and in
placing regiments in position for action
and on picket Captains Bibber, Truch-
el, Harper, Arrowsmith and Acting Aid
James n. Potter, of General Gregg
stAd, and Captains Ford and Tremaine,
Robbins, and Lieutenant Reynolds and
johnson, Of General Davies staff, were
in the.saddle constantly, and doing al
in their power TO make the expedition
