authority, and finally postponed the attack to the next day. However, Bragg did not have to complain of this delay: on the 11th of the month he was going to have twice the opportunity to deal his adversary a decisive blow. Instead of one division onbe traced to him. Really, instead of pressing Hindman by positive orders to attack, as he says he did, he wrote him on the 11th, at eleven o'clock in the morning, the following despatch, doubtless in reply to information given by his lieutenant: If yden, Bragg's slowness was going to surpass the imprudence of his adversaries. Having seen Negley escape from him on the 11th, the Southern general at last thought on that evening of turning back upon the Twenty-first corps, of whose position he waanger had been enabled at the beginning of September to unite these garrisons in order to bring them to Rosecrans. On the 11th he passed the Tennessee at Bridgeport with Daniel McCook's brigade and Steedman's division, which comprised two other brig

. Sherman had arrived at Memphis on the 2d of October with G. A. Smith's division. Osterhaus had repaired by rail to Corinth, where Hurlbut's two divisions had already arrived. J. E. Smith was preparing to follow him by the same road; his troops were already collected at the station, but locomotives and cars were wanting. As G. A. Smith had not been able to start before the 9th of October, Sherman preferred that Corse's division, which had landed on the 4th, should move by land. On the 11th, all his troops being in motion, Sherman himself started for Corinth with his staff and a battalion of regulars. It was therefore a whole army which was going to throw its weight into the decisive struggle near Chattanooga. But Halleck, fearing to overtax the Louisville and Bridgeport line via Nashville, had directed Sherman to restore beyond Corinth the Memphis and Charleston Railroad, so as to use it to bring in supplies and provisions. The army was therefore obliged to regulate its marc

t resistance, but to forestall Cabell, whose advance-guard had already reached the outskirts of the city. The presence of the latter with four thousand men in the ranks of Price's army twelve hours sooner might have changed the issue of the campaign. But it was too late to resume the struggle. Cabell, finding the enemy in front of him, marched by winding roads and joined his chief at Arkadelphia. Steele could not follow them so far with all his army. On the morning of the next day, the 11th, he forwarded, on the track of Price, his cavalry, which advanced to about eighteen miles south of Little Rock and picked up quite a number of prisoners. The campaign was now most happily ended. It had cost the Federals in killed, wounded, and prisoners but about one hundred men. The railroad from Little Rock to Devall's Bluff was promptly put in order, and communications were thus restored between Steele's army and the depots on the Mississippi. The Union generals had nothing more to con

n the 16th. Waring did not join until the next day at a short distance beyond this town. Having left Collierville on the 11th, he had in seven days travelled only some fifty odd miles; that is, about seven and a half miles a day. This slowness is useven light steamers. Another fleet, composed of twenty large transports carrying A. J. Smith's troops, joined him on the 11th. A part of these troops, the two brigades of the Seventeenth corps, had not returned to Vicksburg until the 7th of March, in overtaking it. Green, for his part, leaving Bee on the road to Grand Écore, remained himself at Pleasant Hill. On the 11th he received orders to go to Blair's Landing to await the passage of the fleet there. He started that evening, but, encoun the passage of the St. Mary's River after a slight skirmish, and arrived at Sanderson on the evening of the 10th. On the 11th he advanced to Olustee, but having learned that Finegan was holding Lake City with some infantry, lie had no desire to att
