on the | 9th of June the colored troops of the

there are the redans Of the enemy, the deep

from whence eighteen guns bslched their hames,
sweeping the ground with grape and canister. IL

upon those formidable works, and carried them
at the point of the bayonet. There, at the Dunn

1t sharpens the conscience. So, perhaps, when
we have suffered enough--when hundreds and
