Chattanooga; some batteries of artillery accompany these troops. On the left, Minty appears near Kingston on the west side of Clinch River. On the right, Reynolds detaches Wilder's brigade of mounted infantry and sends it on the same route with Wagner, ordering that it should promptly occupy the heights which, running across Tennessee, command the city of Chattanooga. All these movements are accomplished without delay; but Wilder, whose men are mounted and who has the shortest road to traveCook, climbing, on the right, the side of Lookout Mountain, already causes Davis to occupy the pass of Winston's Gap, and Johnson the approaches to Stevens' Gap at Johnson's Crook. Lastly, the six brigades which, since the departure of Hazen and Wagner, compose Crittenden's corps, have, by a rapid flank movement, gained the edge of the Tennessee, and already crossed the river without accident. As soon as Rosecrans saw the completion of his preparations to cross he recalled Crittenden. This or

awaits him, with all the soldiers he has been able to collect and some guns, upon a crest not much elevated, but precipitous, which some sixteen hundred yards from the main chain separates it from the Chickamauga Valley. Although without artillery, the Federals do not hesitate to attack him. The first line is checked, but Sheridan, who comes up with the reserves, brings them into action despite the obscurity and the difficulties of the ground. While Harker engages the enemy in front, General Wagner with two regiments scales a steep acclivity and endeavors to turn the flank of Bate's right. The full moon, an accomplice with the victors, slowly rises behind the dark crest of the hill. Sheridan and his companions see, depicted like Chinese silhouettes against the sky, which the moon tinges with its pale light, the profiles of Wagner's soldiers, who have just reached the top. It is the signal for a fresh attack, before which Bate promptly falls back. But in gaining an hour this vali

extremity of Morris Island was, above all, to be able to establish breaching-batteries against Fort Sumter. It was the destruction of this fort, and not that of Wagner and of Battery Gregg, which would, as people thought, open the port of Charleston to the fleet, because it was in front of Sumter that it was stopped on the 7th o, in spite of the distance, to batter the walls of Sumter. The enterprise was all the more uncertain because these pieces were going to be exposed to the fire of Wagner. But Gillmore was counting on the fleet to silence that fire. In fact, Dahlgren, true to the design that he had formed on relieving DuPont, had maintained his e roads, so as to isolate Fort Wagner and force it promptly to capitulate. The construction of the breaching-batteries against Sumter and the approaches against Wagner were carried on at the same time. The positions occupied by the Federals on the 18th of July were carefully intrenched; under the designation of first parallel t
