Gen. Johnston was with Statham's
brigade, confronting Hurlbut's left,
which was behind the crest of hill,
with depression filed with chaparral
in front. The confederates held the
parallel ridge, in easy musket-range;
and "heavy fire as ever saw during
the war; says Gov. Harris, was kent
up on both sides for an hour or more.
IL was necessary TO cross the valley,
raked by this deadly ambuscade, and
assail the opposite ridge In
order to drive the enemy from his
stronghold. When Gen. johnson came
up and saw the situation, he said to his
stall: "They are Offering stubborn re-
sistance here. l shall have to put the
bayonet TO them" IL was the crisis of
the conflict. trhe federal key was in

their left would be completely turned

Johnston rode out Ian front and slowly
down the line. His hat was off. His
sword rested in its scabbard. In his
right hand he held little tin cup, the
memorial of an incident that had oc.

thing which, holding IL between two
fingers, he employed more effectively In
HIS natural and simple gesticulation
than most men would have used a
sword. His presence was full of inspir-
alton. He sat his thoroughbred bay,
"Firo-eater," with Gasp command. His
voice was persuasive, encouraging, and
compelling. His words were few; he
said: "Menl they are stubborn; we
must use the bayonet." When he
reached the center OF the line he turned.

toward tho enemy. The line was al

the line moved forward at a charge. A
sheet OF flame and mighty roar, burst
from the federal stronghold. The con.
federate line withered; but there was
not an instant's pause. The crest was
gained. The enemy were in flight.

himself had received any severe wound
he did not know it. At this moment
Gov. Harris rode up from the right.
After few words, Gen. Johnston sent
him with an order TO Col. Statham,
which having delivered, he speedily re-
turned. In the mean time, knots and
groups of federal soldiers kept up des-
ultory fire as they retreated upon their
supports, and their last line now yield
ing, delivered volley after voley as
they sullenly retired. By the chance
OF war, mimic ball from
one Of these did its fatal work.
As he sat there, after his wound,
Capt. Wickham says that Col. O'Hara,
said to him: awe must go to the left,
where the firing is heaviest" and then
gave him an order, which O'Hara rode
off to obey. Gov. Harris returned, and,
finding him very pale, asked him:
"General, are you wounded?" He an
swered, in a very deliberate and en-
phatic tone: eyes, and, / fear, seri-
ously." These were his last words.
Harris and Wickham led his horse back
under cover of the hill and lifted him
from 1t. They searched at random for
the wound, which had cut an artery in
his leg, the blood flowing into his boot.

passionate grief, he smiled family, but
uttered no word. His life rapidly ebbed

His wound was not necessarily fatal.
