d two millions of dollars in expense of recruitment and bounties were saved to the loyal States. This work was done by a young officer from Salem, Massachusetts, Col. Charles A. R. Dimon. He went out with me with the three months men, and I later promoted him to be a colonel. He took command of this enlisted regiment, which did most efficient service. On the 29th of March I received this letter from Mr. Ould, agent of exchange:-- C. S. Steamer Roanoke, mouth of James River, March 29, 1864. Maj.-Gen. B. F. Butler, U. S. Agent of exchange: Sir:--I am here for the purpose of having a conference with you in relation to matters connected with the delivery and exchange of prisoners. Respectfully, yr. obt. svt., Ro. Ould, C. S. Agent of Exchange. Deeming this a full abnegation of the refusal to treat with me, and a virtual withdrawal of the proclamation of outlawry, I invited Mr. Ould to meet me at Fortress Monroe. Here a full and free conference and discussion was

After a great deal of labor, and two and a half days hard work, we succeeded in getting the Eastport over the rocks on the falls, hauling her over by main force; now and then a rise of an inch or so of water would help her along, and she finally was enabled to pass the advance of the army, encamped on the bank of the river twenty-five miles above Alexandria.

serves, and in part, at that time, occupied by two regiments of my reserve brigade, it is difficult to see; but as it appears, from his own report, that these wounds were contusions from spent balls, it is presumable that the shots were fired over the heads of my men when engaged at close quarters with the enemy in front of these woods. In order to explain to the reader what was going on in my division at this time, I extract a passage from my letter to General Heintzelman, dated March twenty-ninth, 1864: Now, my dear General, had you, after posting De Russy's battery, ridden through the narrow strip of woods in front of you, a little to the right of where you saw my men emerging from the woods, you would have found me in the open field in front, with the centre of my division; and General Meade, with his brigade, on the right of the division; and six regiments of the Pennsylvania reserves and three batteries, at that very moment, blazing away at the enemy, who was advancing with gr

We then rode to Culpeper Court House, five miles, where I met General Grant, just from Washington. After which we returned to headquarters, a distance of six miles, making in all sixteen miles for the day's riding.

Appendix N Letter from President Lincoln to General Meade in reply to General Meade's letter to the Department, mentioned in letter of April 2, 1864. see page 186, Vol. II Executive mansion, Washington, March 29, 1864. Major General Meade. My dear Sir: Your letter to Col. Townsend, inclosing a slip from the Herald, and asking a Court of Inquiry, has been laid before me by the Secretary of War, with the request that I would consider it. It is quite natural that you should feel some sensibility on the subject; yet I am not impressed, nor do I think the country is impressed, with the belief that your honor demands, or the public interest demands, such an Inquiry. The country knows that, at all events, you have done good services; and I believe it agrees with me that it is much better for you to be engaged in trying to do more, than to be diverted, as you necessarily would be, by a Court of Inquiry. Yours truly, A. Lincoln.
