Sp cial correspondence of Qincinnati Gazette.) EAR ATLANTA, Ga., July 29.—A week ago to-day the Army of the Tennessee lost its be- loved commander in the great battle southeast ot the walls of the Gate City. Yesterday the invincible army confronted the same atyon the south west, and again fought with a steadi- ness which certainly has never been excelled im the history of the war. At Midnight on the 2ih, the i6th from the extreme marched towards tne right. It was immedi- ately followed by the t7ta corps, and it by the 15} Aa o'clock of the 27ch, tne advance of dge’s command began to go into po- sition on the right of Jeff. G. Davis’ division, 14th corps. en. Morgan’s brigade of this division was formed in column of attack on the right of Gen. Davis’ line, to aid in taking position. Gen. Corse’s division was placed next—Col. Rice’s brigade first, and Lieut. Gol. Phillips’ brigade next. Gen. Faller’s division, which was a little delayed in getting up, formed still on the right—Col. Sprague's brig- ade Seabed Lieut. Col. McDowell’s on the right. When all was ready, Gen. Morgan moved forward and easily drove in the rebel skir- mishers. The brigades on his right moved up in turn, each clearing its front of the rebel pickets, and meeting with no loss of conse- quence. By dark the line was preity well established for the 16th Corps, facing east, and the 17th Corps was well on its right, while the 15th was in bivouac in rear of the 17th, in the advance of our troops they found a rebel captain killed, and left on the ground. Thus was the Army of the Tennessee trans- ferred for the fifth time in this campaign from one flank to theother, The boys say that Gen. Sberman styles this army his corkscrew, by which he draws out the obstinate cork of the rebel position. Although I learn that Schofield repulsed our attack on his line yesterday, and that Palmer sent out a strong skirmieh line which found the enemy in column of attack in his front, from which he did not attempt to advance, yet the battle of yesterday, I presume, can be safe- ly located in the Army of the Tennessee, and parucularly on Gen. Logan’s corps. It was just into position, or rather just going into position, when it found its 2d division, Gen. Morgan L. Smith, confronted by a rebel column of attack, which in a moment bore down upon the division with almost irresisti- ble violence. Again as on the 22d, our troops had no intrepchments, but this gallant corps, the names of whose battles its flags are not large enough to contain, made no objection to anopen fight. Massed closely in column, the enemy hurled again and again his new lines against Logan, only to have them one after another cut to pices and sent rolling back. But more troops were brought up, and again the attack was made at nearly the same place. Our men, who had marched and worked two nights anda day with scarcely any rest, and who now had passed through an action quite as se- vere as usually falls to the lot ofa division in the severest battles, again stood up to pour their leaden hail into the advancing column, Notan inch was yielded, not a man flinched. With a valor that can never be too well ap- preciated or two well rewarded, Gen. Logan’s corps held its ground from 11 o’clock until 5, under attacks too numerous to be remembered, and at night claimed the heaps of rebel dead and wounded in itsfront. There can be node- feat possible to such troops. During the course of the battle Gen. Howard called up four regiments from Gen. Di to be ready in case of need, and Lieut. Col. Pail- lips, with the Sist Ohio and 12th Illinois, of his brigade, and Gol. Claddock, with the 35th New Jersey and 6ith Illinois of Fuller’s boule | went totheirsupport. They were not calle: on, however, to fight, This excellent division was sent early in the morning on the Turner’s Ferry road toward the river. It became engaged there slightly With some cavalry of the enemy, but was or- dered back to fall on the flank of the rebel at- tacking column. Owing to the want of roads, he could not get up in time. He must be v-ry near the Macon road, and threatening it. Gen. Howard, the Havelock of our army, assumed command of the Department and Army of the Tennessee on the 27th inst., in an order which at once endears him toevery sol- dier whom he commands. As a model ot brevity and beauty of diction it cannot be sur- passed. 1 have Beard no estimate of our own losses yesterday. Those of the enemy are put at - trom three to four thousand, which, from the nature of the ground and the extent of the fighting, I should think alow estimate. Hood’s and Hardee’s corps had followed our move- ment and just got into position when the attack ‘was made. During the day the enemy got a battery of 12-pounders in position, so they nearly enfi- laded the line of the 16th corps, and they threw shells fast and furious for nearly an hour. They fell in all sorts of places. Gen. Dodge’s headquarters were particularly hot tor a while. A shell] struck once within twenty ‘eet of the General, and covered him with the dirt thrown up. General Fuller escaped little bet- ter; nor was General Corse forgotten. All the teams were moved to the rear. In the works one man was killed, belonging to Battery F, 2d U.S. Artillery. As soon as the shelling ceased, our boys all became engineers, and began building traverses to protect themselves from another trial. On our part no artillery was used. It was purely an infantry battle. Even the rebel guns played more to the right of the troops attacked, than directly towards them. Ero. [From Another Correspondent. } The Battle of the 26th. HEADQUARTERS 16TH A. C., Army of the Tenn., Ga., July 23.—_To-day has witnessed another spirited conflict between our men aad the rebels. This morning at an early hour I went to tbe right where there were probable indications ofa fight. 1 passed Gen. Hooker’s Corps, (20th,) amd was informed that General Hooker was out making a tarewell address to his troops. He has been relieved of his com- mand at his own request. The 16th, 17th, and 15th Army Co! were in position and it was quite evident that @ storm was brewing. The 15th Army Corps had tormed on the right of the 17th, and about 11 o’clock &. m., had got into position. A strong skirmish line was thrown forward, which drove the rebel skir- mish line back. The enemy was in colmmn of attack, and in turn drove our skirmish line back. At 12 o’clock m. the “fun grew” fast and furious, and contmued without cessation for three and a half hoars. Fur, Pap ae or eh vine sition, I sup} , there comparatively ittle artillery firing. The 15th maintained tis ground with & valor sorerring ot the highest praise. The enemy char, five or six times, and were repu: in.every mstance. There is quite € common remark in camp, that Hood, if lett alone, will butt his brains.ont against our army, It's rather questionable _whether he has“any brains, judging by his mode of fighting. At a yery moderate esti- mate, he has not lost Jess than 20,000 men since the 20th. What his loss has been to-day I have been unable to ascertain; but I am satiefied that it is Me large. The loss of the 15th, who did the principal part of the fighting, is not very heavy. Result af Tuesday's Fight. To sum up to-day’s proceedings, the has made a signal failure in every charge.
