ance divisions of Hill's and Ewell's Corps had been engaged. Howard's Corps, animated by the sounds of battle in its front, pressed forward rapidly, and reached the field at a little past noon. Pender's division had been added to the strength of Hill's already in the struggle, and Early's division now joined that of Rodes. Howard, who had arrived in advance of his Corps, had left General Steinwehr's division on Cemetery Hill, placed General Schurz, whose division was intrusted to General Schimmelpfennig, in temporary charge of the Corps, and, ranking-doubleday, took the chief command of all the troops on the field of action. He placed the divisions of Barlow and Schurz to the right of the First Corps, to confront Early, and so, from the necessity of meeting an expected simultaneous attack from the North and west, the National line was lengthened and attenuated along a curve for about three miles. This was an unfortunate necessity that could not be avoided, for Howard had perceived

Hardee had availed himself of his only remaining railroad, by Florence to Cheraw; had sent there ithin a few hours of the fact. On the 11th of February I was at Stono, and a spirited demonstration was made by General Schimmelpfennig and the vessels. He drove the rebels from their rifle-pits in front of the lines, extending from Fort Pringle, ring to leave. On the 17th. in Stono, rumors were flying about loose of evacuation. In course of the morning, General Schimmelpfennig telegraphed me, from Morris Island, that there were symptoms of leaving; that he would again make a push at Stono, and asked for monitors. General Schimmelpfennig came down in the afternoon, and we met in the Folly Branch, near Secessionville. Hie was sure that the rebs would be off that night, so he was to assault them in front, while a monitor and gun-boa

as taken up arms and is hastening to change front by facing west; but it has scarcely fallen into line when the horde of fugitives rushes into its ranks, carrying confusion and disaster everywhere. In the mean time, the first brigade, under Schimmelpfennig, abandoning its encampments, succeeds in forming into line behind the works before the enemy has been able to reach them. On the side of the Confederates the two wings are still in the rear, but the centre hurries forward, keeping in the diy all the distance which separated them. The centre of the two lines becomes thus mixed up, and for the future forms but a single mass of four brigades, which, supported by the artillery-fire from the road, charges the positions defended by Schimmelpfennig. After a short resistance this small band is crushed, and its debris are carried off by the weight of the assailants. The remainder of Schurz's division shares the fate of this rout; his five pieces of cannon, which have been served to the
