position from the railroad bridge over the
Chickahominyto Summers bridge, crossing
the river two miles above the enemy's bat

guns, which opened fercely upon our col
umns when they moved up. They were
promptly answered and quieted.
Another correspondent says:
Our lines are being somewhat advanced
and put into condition for defence. The
enemy is within talking distance.
Our ranks are being filled rapidly by re.
inforcements.

demand. and the children were taken into
the house. There was no fire to be found
anywhere in the house, and tho landlord
was asked for some wood with which to
kindle one. He swore he would not give
them single chip. The parents of the
children stepped out of the house and be-
gan breaking down the fence for kindling
wood. when the owner of tba house re-
