Gen. Raldr Smiths Account.

The report given by Gen. Smith Of
the battle is concise and accurate:
In front of my right was an open
plain, swept by the fire of the enemy,
both direct and from our right; on my
left the open space was narrower. but
equally covered by the artillery of the
enemy Near the center was q ravine,
in which the troops would be sheltered
from the crossfire, and thru this ravine
l determined that the main assault
should be made. Gen. Devens's Divi-
sion had been placed on the right to
protect our flank and hold as much as
possible of the lines vacated by the
troops moving forward. Gen. Martin
dale, with his division, was ordered to
move down the ravine. while Gen.
Brooks, with his division, was to ad-
vance, on the left, taking care to keep
up the connection between Martindale
and the Sixth Corps, and if, in the ad-
vance, those two commands should join
behind Gen. Martindale, ready
to operate on the right flank, If. nee
essary. The troops moved forward
promptly at the time ordered, and, driv-
ing in the skirmishers of the enemy,
carried his first line of works or rifle
pits. Here the command halted, under
a severe fire, to readjust the lines

hrst Bull Run and were an incident of
every subsequent battle, in the center,
end Getty's Division, now commanded
py Neill, on the right. As always, the
Sixth Corps went at its work with the
greatest promptness and determination,
and succeeded in carrying some of the
rifle pits on the right; but the main line,
from which a desolating fire was
poured, reinforced by a terrible enfilade
fire of canister and musketry, proved
too deadly an obstacle, and the troops
recofled. Those iron-souled veterans did
not recoil far, however, not more than
80 or 40 yards, or to where there was
a rise in the ground, of which they took
instant advantage and began intrench-
ing. No more magnificent demonstra-
tion was ever given of the stuff of this
corps. Shattered as it was, there was
no disorder, no rout, and the slightest
shelter was embraced as means of
holding as much as possible of the
ground gained.
The reports of the assault are few
and exceedingly meager. Neither the
corps nor the division commanders
make any and only five of the brigade
commanders. These are condensed to
the briefest details. One of the best
of the reports is by Lieut--Col. o. II.
Binkley, commanding the 10th Ohio.

The order of Gen. Meade suspending
the attacks was issued upon receiving a
dispatch from Gen. Grant, stating that
as the corps commanders were not san
Suine of success in case an assault was
made that further advance might he
suspended for the present; that ad-
vances to advantageous positions should
be made by regular approaches, after
due reconnaissance; that to aid the ex-
pedition under Gen. Hunter 1t was nee
essary to detain all the army then with
Lee until Hunter got well on his way to
Lynchburg. This would be more eff
fectually done by keeping the enemy
out of the intrenchments of Richmond
than by forcing him into them. 1t
should be mentioned that as early as 7

Meade to suspend the offensive the mo-

25th, 27th Mass, 9Th N. j., seth N. Y.

won such high honors at Gettysburg,

fell upon the 25th and 27th Mass, the

says that he lost 500 killed, or about
the same as the others.
The Fifth Corps was in too extended
formation to do more than demonstrate,
which it did in cooperation with Burn
sides troops. Between them Early was
pushed from the important Shady Grove
Church road. Warren reports his loss
as about 400 killed and wounded, or
half that of the Ninth Corps.
The real fighting, as we have said be-
fore, was over in 10 minutes-some say
eight-but the vicious sharpshooting

was at first disposed to renew the as

which his men had secured gave prom

fire could be suppressed much might be
accomplished, and the artillery was
hurried forward into every available
position for this purpose. But no fur

plates to provide little shelter. AS
soon as they had this started
they began to bring up logs and rails
until they had a line of comparative
safety. All this was accomplished un-
der a constant, searching fire of the
enemy's sharpshooters, as well as that
of the line behind the Confederate
breastworks, only few yards distant.
When the men got the works in toler-
able shape they began to protect them
selves still more effectually by opening
close, accurate fire upon their perse-
cutors. The position was one of great
danger. Men had to hug the ground
closely, and anyone who rose up to go
70 the rear did it at risk to his life.
Deep trenches were dug, in which the
men might pass TO and from the front
without being observed. If a soldier,

was forced to crawl along the trenches,
taking the greatest care not to be seer

then he was liable to be shot. The line

held until June 10.

with her sister regiments, loading and
firing with the greatest determination
until 1t received orders to retire. The

The Eighteenth Corps.
Whatever criticisms may have been
made of Gen. "Baldy" Smith in his op-
erations under Butler, and of the vigor
of the Eighteenth Corps attacks, there
could be none now. All of his regt-
ments were much larger than the bat
tle-frayed organizations to his left. and
every man seemed impelled by a desire
to show his more experienced comrades
that he was worthy of them. The at
tack of the Eighteenth Corps at Cold
Harbor WAS quite as vigorous, and was
pushed with as much determination as
those OF the Second and Sixth Corps.
Lack of soldierly intrepidity was not
one of Gen. Smiths faults, and he was
on all occasions at the front, encourag-
ing and directing his men during the
hottest crises. The position of the
Eighteenth Corps at Cold Harbor is CIV

There was, Gen. Smith says, very lit
tie struggling during the battle, less
| than usual, and he goes on to say:
Shortly after the attack began in

fray fine-looking Sergeant in the new
and untarnished uniform of a heavy
artillery regiment, which had joined the
army the day before. AS he passed /

quarters occasioned the sending of q

reported that shell which had passed

ploded in this thicket and had horribly
mangled all the skulkers."
The Fifth and Ninth Corps.
Gen. Burnside had thrown forward
Potter's and Willcoxs Divisions, who
took the advanced rifle pits in their
front, where they established themselves
close to the enemy's main line. 1t was
expected that if the attack on the left
had succeeded that Burnside would be
in a position to roll up the flank and
complete the decentralization, aided by
