THE EVENING STAR. vue RATTLES AT V CKSBURG 'Rpterestiog Varticutars ef the Investment of the Mronghota—the Assault Upon the ‘Works. ments at Vicksburg, giving. a better idea of the | formidabie nature of the work our gallant trecps have undertaken than has before been tureivbed. We qudte some parts of the Repab- -Menn’s account as follows: OroeraTION OF MAINE'S RitFy—FINST As- RAULT ON THE RERKL WORKB. - «Turke Micgs In Reak OF Vickentre; Bay %).—On the isth our army crossed th Bix Bleck and narcica on Vicksburg, Sherman gemivg in and taking possession of Haines’ +Blug, McPherson arriving on the Jackson sead, and McCiernand advanciug towards the _ viere of his march on the road to Baldwin's “Berry. “Yesterday morning Gen. Grant began to move upon the enemy’a works—a line of ree oudts, extending from the rear of Haines’ Biuf to the Warrenton road, a distance of eight or ten miles. The atiack was made with Saer- > maan on the right, McPherson extended from hw-Jeit to the railroad, and McClernand from the railroad to the extreme left. At daylight eur'troops moved up, but theaction did not be- gin ‘till sbout boon, save an occasional shot + from our artillery, as it. came up in range. «Gn the left General Gsterhans, having re- seovered from his confusion, eommand again of bie division, General Lee being as- signed to the command of the First Drigade. After a siow fire from our artillery had fatied | to elicit any repty from the rebel works, our Mines slowly advanced untiletevery pointthey ‘were in front hardly one thousand yards from the redoubts. The ground: over which we ‘crossed in this movement wassingularly rough, a series of hills and hollows, not high, bit steep. As we neared the hostile redoubis we jound that they commanded every crest and sweptevery ravine. Yet at two o’clock a gen- eral charge was ordered. I was on the extreme - Jeft at the time, and had an opportanity to ob- serve the movements of Lee's brigade in the advance at that point. “Addressing a fw words of cheer to his men) | he placed himself in front of the center of his brigade, and lead instead of following them. Arrived on the crest of the hill, he was by & perfect tempest of shoi and sheil, and while thus gallantly leading his men he was struck in the ince by a buliet and fell, serious- jy, but I am glad to say not dancerousiy wonnded. His brigude dropped behind the cxest they had attained, and held their ground there. RESULTS OF THE ASSAULT. “Abont the same success—or want of suc- cess—atiended the charge along the whole iin We have, up to this time, advanced so closely to the enemy’s works that he cannot safely use his guné, and out heavier artillery is being » pushed up and planted. Communication is opened to the Yazoo by the way of Haines” tuff, and supplics now come to us trom tue upper river.
