AFTERNOON.

It would make this account much too long,
and ] fear it would be unintelligible, were i
10 narrate ali the movements that took place
but from morning till 4 o'clock in the after
noon the battle ragged, the Confederates forcing
the Union troops back nearly two miles, but
unable to drive them any farther for several
reasons.
In battle there comes a time when the
assailing party begins TO lose its aggressive
force. That hour has come to the Confederate
army. The soldiers have made wearisome
march from Corinth. They slept little on
Saturday night. They have eaten nothing
since early morning They have been under
the strain Of battle since early morning, and
have suffered terrible losses Many officers
have been killed or wounded. Thousands Of
faint-hcarted men have drifted TO the rear.
Others think that the victory is already won.
Looking, now, at the Union line we see ii, at 2
o'clock, more compact than at any time during
the day. The line is much shorter than il was
in the morning. 1t has suffered great losses.
Down by the landing are thousands Of faint
hearted men, who would gladly cross the river
if they could and leave their comrades to finish
the fight. But there are brave men ia the lines
who have no thought of yielding another
inch, and every time the Confcderates advance
they drive them back. General Bragg says:
Hindman's command was CALAMITY led to
the attack, but recoiled under a murderous fire.
The noble and gallant leader fell severely
wounded. The command returned to its work,
but was unequal To the heavy task. brought

through Sunday the Union troops had been on
the defensive, but with daylight Nelson began
the attack. Beauregard was forming his lines
when Nelson's skirmishers opened fire. He
had no artillery, but General Buell. sent him
MendeDhalrs battery, which poured canister at
short range upon the Confederates. Beaure-
gard was astOnished He had not expected it.
Just before sunset ON Sunday some one had told
him that Buell. was far away but here were
the troops of Nelson's division. Through the
forenoon the battle ragged. Grant and Buell.

the camps which they lost On Sunday.
The golden moment for Beauregard was

There was but one thing to be done-retreat.
At noon the Confederates Disappeared

lost nearly 1000 men. The Union army had

The Confederate troops engaged on Sunday
