The ladies were extremely anxious about the furniture they were obliged to leave in the dwellings; but Beverly and Gayle—both ot whom carried their families away in light ‘Wagons—seemed more exercised about their persons. Owners of large plantations, and numerous servants, they early amassed | sums of Confederate money, which the wily creatures invested fm farms about Richmond. The servants say “Old Bob Lee” told their masters to never mind the Yankees, but prose- cute the cultivation-of their farme.’ He would protect them, and see that no Yankee marau- der came nigh to molest or make them afraid. ‘Lhese instructions were implicitly followed fcrevery available inch of ground fit for til- le ge has been planted in cornand wheat. «Old Rob Lee,” however, has failed to bea sufficien saieguerd, and I doubt if the proprietors o. these fields will ‘go on raising crop,” or whether they will crib as many barrels of corn as expected. Spottsylvania Court House is piainly. visible through the long vistaof trees. The rebel lines are about one quarter of a mile from this rena and include the old dingy Methodist meeti: houee, as our parallels do Frank Beverly's dwelling. According to recent reperts, we have had possession of this place several times. In this many have been mistaken. General Custar, with his brigade of cavalry, held the Court House for a season, but when he left we had no further hold on it. The rebels are strongly tortified in this vicinity, and cling to the central portion of their line with great te- na&city. Twenty or thirty pieces of artillery stare us in the face from that point, while there is apparently an endless chain of earth- works. About twilight Monday evening our batteries near the road shelled the woods in their front, but tailed to elicit any response. Monday asciealtty prevailed. The 9th corps (Burn- side’s) held the right. Warren had Sth corps next, and was joined by Wright with the 6th corps, Hancock being on the extreme left. In the afternoon of Tuesday, the 4th division of the Sth corps marched trom the trenches where they had been lying aliday. No notice was taken of this movement by the enemy, at least they betrayed no signs of concern. any retired that night very much deceived. Next morning I was aroused by the whizzing of shells, and discovered the position of every commana changed. The2d corps had passed te the extreme right, under cover of the night. They bivouacked in the fortifications from whence, only a tew nights before, they took such a large number of prisoners. It was 4 o’clock a. m., when the skirmishers advanced The rebels ‘were there, armed and vigilant. Both sides opened with cannon, Smoke and mist hung pale, heavy and motion- less over our troops. On the right was Gib- bon’s ist division. The Irish Legion had just joined them. They had seen some service on the Blackwater and Nansemond rivers, near Suffolk, during the investment of that place by Lone but had never known the reality of 8 battle. On the right, the Irish Legion charged with a fierce, wild shout. Two hundred yards of clear field had to be traversed before the firet line of the enemy’s breastworks could be reached; a battery of four brass pieces played on our men incessantly as they advanced on a donble quick All this time the sharpshooters were busy; sufficient light was lacking to en- able them to sight their pieces with precision, but many an officer owes his death to their marksmanship. At last the field is crossed. The distance was shc t—only two hundred yards. Who does not velievye it seemed a lifetime to many of those men, who, with bent body and erect tayonet, won their perillous way, foot by foot, through whistling balls, bursting shelisygna w- ing grape. The rebls fly from the first en- trenched line. Our brave fellows clamber over ckeerily and capture a few dilatory sharp- shooters, who lingered too long at their post. About midway between the first and second parallels, the line of the Legion grows con- fused—their pace waxes slow by degrees, and finally halts, preparatory to breaking up—to retreating. - They did fa@ back a short distance, but the veterans of the old Ist and 2d divisions were at hand. They took no notice of comfasion, and heeded the driving bullets no more than 2 peltingrain. Through the pines they ran, with fixed bayonets, searching in vain for the rebels. A shoutrent the air,and the second line of rebel breast works was won. ‘The second division did nobly, never halting or faltermg till the goal was gained. The en- tire corps did well, and can always be de- pended upon. Our loss in this charge must be between three and four hundred men. Two hours sfterwards. our batteries on either side ibe turnpike running trom Fredericksburg to Spottsyivania engaged ina duel with the rebel artillery. The Ist Pennsylvania artillery and pattery B,4th United States, were engaged. Improvement has been going on among the rebel cannoniers, for they shell with greater accuracy than ever before.
