concert Of action among our Farmers to
plant il generally and provide il them selves

The goth Ind. was ia the first line OF battle,

each other and where the two pieces Of artil-

loaded their own aud our guns, while we did
the shooting.

forced back from the line. We never yielded
one inch Of the line. and when the charge was
over aud the rebels repnlsed our colors stood on
the front line Of battle. The 10Th Ind. never
yielded ground that could DO held by any other
living regiment, as its losses during the war

Of 300 whose loss in killed alone was over 200

John W. Osburn, Sergeant. Co. K, 10th Ohio,
Cadiz o.. says that DR.. Nagle, in his article on
Smokers Ferry, speaks about a three months
regiment. Tho writer does not think there
was any short term regiment in the fight but
the 10th Ohio, which was ia the Second Bril-
gade. ThObuFR's Division. The bri gads was
composed Of the Ist w. Va, 34th Mass, 54th
Pa, and 10th Ohio, and a battalion of the 9TH
". Y. III. A., and was commanded by the Colo
mel Of the 3ith Mass. The brigade crossed the
river nearly hour before the ball opened, and
they were not under the command of Col.
Young, Of the dismOunted cavalry, at any time.
The 10th was commanded by Lieut-CO Hig-
gins. DIR. Nsgle says that Nealy's command
was driven back and carried the militia with it,
but the facts are that the dismOunted cavalry
gave way first, which left gap in the line, Of
which the rebels took advantage. The Doctor
also says that the balls were flying thick when
they crossed the river, and they had to fall back
to get out Of the range Of the artillery. The
10th was on the left and held its position until
ordered across the river at dark. But the three
remaining companies g. K, and B, did not
hear the order and held their position until all
were across when the rebels closed in and they
then crossed the river, when the firing ceased.
The regiment lost four killed, 10 wounded and
several taken prisoners, among whom were the
Surgeon and Adjutant. Some Of the men
died in prison.

Henry Miller. Co. Fl, 1st Pa. Reserves, Car,
Isle Springs, Pa, says that in cur account Of
the troops engaged at Drainesville, Va, Dec
20, 1851, that mistake was made by saying
that the LIST Pa. Reserves was in that battle, fol-
the regiment was not there. He thinks 10 must
have been the 1st Pa. Rifles, the genuine old
Bucktails, who should have the credit, and not
the lst Reserves.
THE comrade is correct. We got the infor-
nation from Phisterer's Statistical Record
which is usually correct, but in this instance
was wrong. The Official Records of the Rebel
lion show that it was Kane's 1st Pa. Reserve
Rifles who were engaged at DrainesvilIe.-EDI-
