4 NEW YORK HERALD, SATURDAY, MAY 24, 1862.—TRIPLE SHEET. brigade, had been withdrawn from its position towards the right, and @ little later the Second New Hampshire, Col. Marston, was likewise withdrawn, and both sent to the left to assist in our concentrated effort to keep the rebels back. The First Massachusetts did ‘excellent service in popping off numbers of the enemy, ‘and the Twenty-sixth Pennsylvania, commanded by Ma- jor Berry, fought near the position which it occupied all : . day, aud on which it siept during the night. The Difficult ANOTHER INSTANCE O¥ REBEL TRRAOUKRY Socurred in front of the Second New Hampshire regi- ‘ment similar to that which was seen in front of the Ele- eS] TRE BA of the Field---The March The Line of Rebel Defences. venth Massachusetis. Captain Brown's company en- countered a body of the enemy, when the rebel com- maandor cried out, Don’t fire, don't dre; we arefriends!” at (he same time directing his men to trail thoir arms. Captuin Brown ordered his company not,te fire. Having thus Ovtained a good show at thom, the rebels fired a volley, killing Captain Browa aud many of his men. ‘THE ARTILLERY CHANGR THEIR POSITION. Tho support to our artillery was withdrawn and sent to 4 more important point, General Hooker deeming it better to run the risk of losing a fow picces of artillory than of losing the day. This was just pre- ‘vious to the time that our reinforcements were coming ‘up ologe in the rear. GRNRRAL KBARNEY’S DIVISION ADVANCES. Those reinforcements consisted of General Kearney’s ‘division, formerly Goneral Hamilton’s, in Geaeral Heint- zeiman’s corps, When the division was still far in the fear, hearing the firing in front, and having received orders to comé forward with all possible baste, the seve- ral brigades pushed on through the mud, in the falling rain, past other troops and trains. General Heitzelman, who.was anxiously watching the progress of the battle ‘and weighing the chances for victory or defeat, had sent ether orders to hasten on the coming division of his corps. GENERAL HERRY’S BRIGADE ARRIVES. At this point General Berry pushed his brigade vigor- ‘ously forward, and sent to tho rear requests for the speedy advance of Captain Thompson's batteries of ar- tillery. The Drigade and tho artillery soon arrived near the fiold of action. General Kearney, with Genera! Jameson, had ridden to the front, and both, assisted by their staff officers, used their personal influence to good advantage in eucouraging the woary soldiers on to the Scene of action, As the troops passed where General Aeintzelman was he waved his hat, and they greeted him with the most enthusiastic cheers. The arrival of this brigade at that momout was most op- portune. That was a very critival period of the battle. HOW OUR GUNS WERM CAPTURED. Tho enemy, seeing the supports withdrawn from the wtillery, made a determined attempt to capture it, and, indeed, nearly all the horses having been killed and the pieces deoply embedded in the mud, some of the guns had already fallen into his hands. The enemy was pushing this part of the lino, and had suceeedod in ‘ntering the woods near the Humpton road, which Gen. Gooker’s division had held all day. NARROW ESCAPE OF GENERAL HRINTZELMAN. General Heintzelman himself was nearly surrounded; ‘but Iam informed he deliberately made up his mind to be killed or captured by tho enemy sooner than leave & position where, at that critical juncture, he could by his personal presence inspire confidence in his troops. Gad he loft the result might have been disastrous. Just at that moment, however ,as I have said, Geueral Berry's brigade arrived, and thenceforward the tide of battle was destined to turn completely in our favor. GRMN, HEINTZELMAN ORDERS THE BANDS TO PLAY NATIONAL AND MARTIAL AIRS—Tux KYYECT, When Goneral Kearney’s troops were being brought {ote action they met the lengthene! files of General Gooker’s wounded being carried to the rear. The hrieks of the lacerated and bleeding soldiers, who had Deen fighting so long and so well, pierced the air, and this, joined to the mud and rain, and the exhaustion of those who had come several miles with 20 much speed, ‘was not calculated to produce a favorable impression on themas they were going into action. General Heintzel- man, however, ordered several of the bands to strike up ‘cational and martial airs; and, when the strains of the ‘amiliar tunes reached the ears of the wounded as they ‘were being carried from the field, their cheers mingled with those of the soldiers who were just rushing into the battle. The effect, too, was great on the ott: sr side; for some of the prisoners state that when they heard the ‘ands strike up the Star Spangled Banner, and heard our soldiers cheer, they knew that the victory would be GENERAL HEINTZELMAN STILL COMMANDING IN PERSON. General Kearney quickly conferred with General Gointzelman, from whom he received his orders, and with General Hooker, who pointed out the position of af- faira,and made some suggestions as to the disposition of his forces. Having observed the point of attack, Gene- ral Kearney immediately threw his troops imto action. The Third Michigan regiment, Colonel Champlin, having been previously detached and sont with General Emory, General Berry went on the field with tho three other regimonts. The Fifth Michigan regiment, Colonel Terry was filed off to the left of the road inte the timber, and ‘was supported by the Thirty-seventh New York, Colonel Hayman. Part of the Second Michigan, Colonel Poe, was placed on olther side of the road, six companies being ‘held on the loft as a reserve. P 3 A BRILLIANG CHARGE OF GENERAL DERRY’S COMMAND. Then @ charge was ordered on the left, and ‘he Fifth Michigan and Thirty-seventh New York advanced im splendid style, driving tho enemy before them away from the fallen timbe, and out of the rifle pits beyond. Nearly all the field officers of the Fifth Michigan regiment were wounded in thie charge. Colonel Berry was slightly wounded early; but he still bravely urged on his command. Lieutenant Colonel Boach, who had won henors on the field in Mexi- co, sustained hig character of a gallant officer, and was wounded in the thigh. Major Fairbanks luckily escaped himself; though he had a horse shot under him. Colo" nel Hayman and his officers acted in the most gallant manner in this brilliant charge. ‘THE RYYECT OF THR FIRE OF THR WESTERN TROOPS. The fire of our Western soldiers was accurate. In on® of the rie pits sixty-three dead rebels were counted,” most of thom shot through the head. The dead and dying wore lying all around. The Fifth Michigan regi” ment held possession of that rifle pit, and turned to good account the advanced position it had gained. Captain Smith, General Borry’s Assistant Adjutant General, dis. played great gallantry under heavy fire, and led the right wing of the Fifth Michigan regiment in the charge. . ‘THE REBELS STILL PREBBING ON, i Still the enemy was pressing forward on the centre, where our almost abandoned battery was fast in the mud. In the meantime Captain Smith had placed his pieces in echelon on a knoll to the right of the road, and when the rebels came down from Fort Magruder to take his comrades’ cannon he met them with a raking fire, which kept them from carrying them away. At the same time Gon. Kearney, perceiving this movement of Ahe enemy, ordered two companies of the Second Michigan regiment o charge on the enemy's skirmishers, who were now crowding on our pieces. This charge was conducted in the most gallant manner, and the rebels were enco moro driven back over the felied timber. ‘THY THIRTY-KIGHTH AND PORTIETH NEW YORK VOLUNTERRS- ‘The Third and Fourth Maine regiments having been dotached from Gen. Birney’s brigade and temporarily assigned to Gen. Emory, Gen. Birney came forward with the two remaiaing regimonts—the Thirty-oighth Now York, Col. J. H. Hobart Ward, and the Fortioth New York, Col. Reilly. These were deployed to the right of the Hampton road, and, like those under General Berry, on the loft, relioved fragmenta of rogiments which had borne the brunt of the battle ever since its commencement in the morning. All this time the rebel artillery was sending a rapid fre into our ranks. GALLANT CHARGR OF THE TIRTY-RIGHT NEW YORE youvy. THexs, The Thirty-cighth New York regiment was ordered to charge down the road and take tho enemy's rifle pits in front by the flank. Colonel Ward in tho most martial manner led seveo companies of his regiment in this most brilliant and successful charge. The other three compa- os, under Lieutenant Colonel Strong, were doing eff cient service in an adjacent portion of the field. The charge of Colonel Ward’s regiment was a splendid thing, and rosulied in putting the onomy to flight again across ‘the open space. The personal conduct of Colonel Ward, whose martial bearing on the fleld was remarked by all who saw bim, could have had no other effect than to in- fuse patriotic and military ardor into all the soldiers near him. ‘THM FORTIETH SEW YORK VOLUNTEERS ALSO CHARGR THR RENN: ona Kearney, who was in ono of the most exposed positfius in the front, and who speaks and moves with great rapidity, observing the advantage to begained at Uris (important moment, imunsdiately ordered the lett wity of the Fortioth New York, Colonel Reilly, to foliow y \ most intrepid manner by Captain Mindel, chief of Gene- Sl Birney’s staff. Theenemy was successfully driven back, his artillery silenced and the contest virtually closed in that portion of the fleld. GENERAL JAMESON’S BRIGADE ARRIVES. General Jameson, having previously reported his regi- ments advancing, now came up with his brigade, and @ second line was formed ready for any subsequent move- ment; but the fast approaching darkness and the drizzling rain prevented an opportunity for his troops to partici- pate in the action, though he himself bad rendered va- Juable services in checring on ether regiments under & galling Gre. THE OPERATIONS ON THR RIGHT. In the meantime the operations had extended further tothe right. General Peck’s command, of which I have previously spoken, was brought into action late in the afternoon near the point where the Yorktown road opens into the space in front, The One Hundred and Second Pennsylvania regiment, Colonel Bolley, was deployed to the right of the road, and the Fifty-fifth New York, Co- lonel de Trodriand, to the left. This was thetime’of the general movement along the whole line, and when the enemy was attempting to carry off Capt. Weber's guns. The Fifty-ffth regiment was despatched to the left with instructions to prevent that movement, but reach’ @4 the spot too late to accomplish the intended object , Howover, those regiments and the Sixty-second Pennay!- vania, Colonel Riker, engaged the enemy in front till their ammunition was expended. The Ninety-third Pennsylvania, Colonel McCarty, was thrown in front, and contended with the rebels until they appeared in larger force to tho right again, in front of Colonel Rolley’s rogiment. It was now quite doubtful whether General Peck could hold his position there. The Ninety-cighth Pennsylvania, Colonel Balliere, was ordered forward ; but some of the companies manifested symptoms of dis- order, while the rebels were gaining ground; but it was placed in position notwithstanding, and before night closed upon the conflict the brigade had partially gueceeded in driving back the enemy. The sup, ply of ammunition in the cartridge boxes hav. ing boon expended, this brigade was relieved by other troops, which were placed under command of Geu- Devin on the right and Gen. Keim on the left. GENERAL KHIM. General Wfiliam H. Keim, of Ponnsylvania, of General Casey's division, was engaged actively in the battle, actually rising from a sick couch to participate therein. He was complimented by General McClellan for the ser- vices he rendered in rescuing General Peck’s division when In great danger. Genoral Keim’s death was caused by the exposure he suffered at this battl ‘THR CHARGE OF GENERAL HANCOCK’S BRIGADE. ‘The battle had now raged from early in the morning ti!l near night. By the superior intrepidity of our troops the vigorous attacks of the enemy had been repulsed, and bis last grand advance along the line had been hand. somely repelled by Gen. Kearney’s troops. The enemy had tried to turn our left, and had failed, and the sub. sequent advances gradually extended from loft to right. The rain was still descending, as it had been all day. Gen. Hancock’s brigade, which I have previously placed on our extreme right, remained in tho position he took up when crossed the dam, and cecupied some of the evacuated § earth works earlier In the afternoon, Expected reinforce. ments not coming up in time, it was deemod more proper that he should fall back from his advanced position to the one he occupied at first, immediately after crossing the dam. Being oocasionally engagod with the enemy, however. in order to avoid the bad effect which a rotro- grade movement on his part might cause, ho held the position, keeping his skirmishers deployed in front, ‘TU FORT #LACKENS FIRE Tho fire near Fort Magruder, to the left, had now almost aubsided, and rebel troops wore observed moving in diferent directions. A force of the onemy’s infantry filled @ work which had re A,anda body ained unoe tae Thirty cighth in another charge over the opon apave | of his cavalry asvemblod on the plateau, apparently with avd dash) into the enemy's rear, The Colonel being | @ view of charging on the battory vaitintly eneoged infront with the right wing of his A PRUMD ATTACK ON THR RrIGADI eaGlilait, (nid charge of tho left wing was lelia sae | A vigorous attack un the right mado General Hancock WILLIAMSBURG SUALE OF FEET € PEEPTTTT £2 1200 REFERENCES c= UNION TROOPS J REBEL REDOUBTS ™_ REGEL RIFLE PITS Wa YS ea Ny a apprehensive that his position might be turned, and he cut off from an opportunity of retreating, if ho should find it necessary, across the dam. His brigade fell back in line of battle, followed by the rebels, firing and cheering as they came; and our artillery was also Drought back piece by piece, the las gun firing a fow rounds of canister at the advancing enemy. As soon as the artillery was gafe the Fifth Wisconsin regiment, on tue right, was ordered to retire in the same manner a5 the others, disputing the ground as it retreated. Another line was being formed on either side of the redoubt by our retiring regiments. The enemy was pressing them so hard that when the Fifth Wisconsin had reached the second line, followed by the Fifth North Carolina, shout- ing “Bull run, Ball’s Bluff,” it was immediately formed to the right and left of the redoubt. ‘THE CUARGR. Tho rebels wero now within some forty yards, and General Hancock ordered an immediate advance of his entire line, This, it will be remembered, was com- posed of the principal portions of the Fifth Wisconsin, Sixth and Seventh Maine, Thirty-third New York and Forty-ninth Pennsylvania regiments—in all about two thousand five hundred men. These regiments went for- ward with alacrity, and, ag they came close to the enemy, delivered afew volleys. Then General Hancock, whose politeness is equal to his bravery, gave the command— “GENTLEMEN, CHARGE |’? And his gallant soldiers, with tremendous cheers: dashed down the slope. The enthusiastic epirit of the men seomed to be sufficient to frighton the opposing force, which was said by prisoners to be General Early’s bri- gade, and, with the exception of three resolute rebels who stood to receive the bayonets, the line broke, and the rebels ran. Pursuing them down the slope, General Han- cock’s command halted and fired ten or twelve volleys at them, and also at another rebel force which was observed advancing to support the first. When the sinoke cleared up the ground was thickly covered with dead and dy- ing rebels. ‘THR ENEMY'S LOS, ‘The loss of the enemy at this time must have been tremendous. The Fifth North Carolina regiment was almost annihilated. The Twenty-fourth Virginia and other regiments lost many officers. General Early is said to have been wounded and several colonels killed. The prisoners we have captured say that before they went into the action General‘Hill made a brief address to the rebel troops, in which he told them that we had Detter arms, that the conflict would be close, that he knew they were equal to the task, and that they must walk in and give us the cold steel. Then General Early asked them if they were ready totako that battery, and they replied that they would try it. They did try it; but instead of giving us the cold steel thoy them- selves fled at the sight of it, GENERAL M’CLELLAN ARRIVES ON THR SCENE OF ACTION, Towards the close of the engagement it was the Prince de Joinville, I believe, who rode off and came back with General MeCiellan, who arrived, with heavy reinforce- monts, at the scene of action on the right, just about the time that General Hancock's command made the final charge. He was loudly cheered as he passed, and his presence on the field created the most unbounded enthu- siasm among his devoted troops. General Hancock's loss in the operations of the day, in- elnding thia charge, was nine killed, ninety-Ove wounded and thirty missing. That was about the concluding act of the engagement; and when night closed on tho final scene, our troops all along the line soundly slept on the field thoy had ao bravely won, CHARACTER OF THE CONTEST AND CONDUCT OF THR MEN. § This battle was a series of charges on either side, from the left to the right of the line, from the commence- ment of tho action to its close; but as the ground fos covered with felled timbor it was diMeult for troops to manwuvre speedily in any place excopt on the right, where the advantage of position Jonoral Hanonek an oxcelient opportunity to ch No soldiers ever fought with greater determination than did the Lt emy’s and ours. The reposted attempts to turn e » in tho 3 tot fu vt we | our vist in gaiiapt manner ja stances of greater individual valor than were displayed on that memorable ficld. Surely tho ancient days of noble chivalry have been revived. On the day subse- quent to the battle the dead were lying so thickly on the ground that in some places it was necossary either to pick your way or step on some dead or wounded soldier, half buriod in the mud. Several rebel Indians,were found among the dead on the field. Our loss was over two thousand in killed, wounded and missing. It is impos- Bible to tell precisely what loss the enemy has sustained; Dut from the number of killed and wounded which he left behind, and other evidences, his loss is believed to be fully equal to ours. ‘THE COOLNHSS AND BRAVERY OF GRY. HEINTZELMAN. General Heintzelman acted with a coolness and courage, ‘when surrounded by danger, which attest anew his merits ‘asan accomplished soldier. Not over pleasing im his man. ners in general intercourse, except with those with whom ho is. intimately acquainted, it is beautiful to see how his eyo gleams with martial fire amid the excite ment of the field. General Hooker opened the attack and successfully held the ground with his division against overwhelming numbers until the arrival of General Kearney’s troops late in the afternoon. Hoe was ia immediate command where the fighting was during the greater portion of the day, and fought the rebel forces under General Joseph FE. Johnston, the ablest of all the rebel generals, with unquestioned energy and skill, ‘THB RELATIONS BETWEEN GEN. HOOKER AND JOR JOUNSTON. It is an interesting incident gyat General Hooker and General Johnston, who confronted each other on that occasion, are old friends, fought side by side for the American cause in all the battles which took place in the basin of Mexico, and entered Chepultepec togosher. General Hooker has shown himself to be not only a pleasing gentleman, but an able officer. GRNERAL KEARNEY. General Kearney’s activity is surpassed only by his in- trepidity. His conduct in the battle was of an inspiring character. He was often in the most exposed positions, once with General Jameson, down in front ofjFort Magru- der. The wonder is that he was not killed. One of our officers met in the hospital a college companion, a Vir- ginian, who was on the rebel side, and wounded in the fight. He said that he and others had several times taken deliberate aim at “that man with the one arm.” ‘That was General Kearney, who lost his arm while lead- ing a charge during tho war with Mexico. OTHER GENERALS who commanded brigades conducted themselves with scarcely less bravery and valor. The staff officers in every instance rendered valuable services to the cause on this eceasion. I would wish to mention some of them; but in doing justice toa few I might by implica- tion do injustice to many, while all exhibited activity, and those who were under a heavy fire showod great gallantry. General Kearney’s Chief of Staff, Captain James M. Wilson, was killed while putting in execution the destre for a general onset, falling within the enemy’s lines; and Lieutenant Wm. C. Bernard, one of his aids, late of Wost Point, lost his life towards the close of the engagement, having previously lost # horse. With nearcely an exception, officers of the field and of the line behaved in the bravest manner, while among tho file there were thousands of instances of individual prowoas, most of which may never be widely known. And all those who conducted themselves commendably, they may not see their names in print, will have the inward consciousness of duty dono, which 1s in itself an exceeding great roward. THR CONTEST throughout was of tho fiercest character. One or two examples will sorve as i¥astrations. After tho action a friend and foo were found, each tightly clutching his rifle, each having the other's bayonet in his body, and both dead upon the ground. One of our liewtonants who was killed had ran his sword through one rebel and was cleaving the skull of another when hoe | was killed by ,@ ballot, Tho Thirty-oighth New | York and tho Fourteenth Louisiana regimonis, which ti \fronted each other at Moll rua, met again on this 9 was oppongd t hor in the Myhe ighith Now i AW ys exsmmyy O89 —— = ‘=> ' |PECKSSs <— TTLE BEFORE WILLIAMSBURC. of the Union Troops Through the Woods--- Ngia noiso GEN, HANCOCK ‘York were taken prisoners, and were guarded in prison at Richmond by the Fourteenth Louisiana. At the battle of Williamsburg some of the Fourteonth were taken prisoners by the Thirty-eighth. The tables had been completely turned; for familiar faces were recognized again, and it was found that some of our men who had been guarded by rebels were now guarding those rebels themselves. But it would be useless to proiong tie nar- rative of incident, which could be made interminadie in this already almost too elaborate account. As I said in the commencement, I will repeat at the conelusion, that the battle of Williamsburg was one of the most hotly contested engagements of the war. GENERAL HOOKER’S LOS8 was in the proportion of one in six, whict is & proportionate loss to that of the Allied armies at the battle of Alma in 1854. No other battle in the recent European wars compares with it. The bloodiest battle in Napoleon’s career, I believe, was the battle of Wagram, where tho loss was one in eight. Our regiments engaged in the battle of Williamsburg were small in numbers, for the reason that whon thoy wore urged on with such tonacity some were found physically unable to keep up on the double quick, and therefore dropped out of the ranks exhausted before the regiments reached the fleld of action. The force opposed to ours was supposed to be thirty thousand. We have prisoners taken in that fight who represent forty different reyi- ments. All the Union regiments which participated in the battle will have * Williamsburg” inscribed upon their bannérs. Dr. Franklin Ridgway, Assistant Surgeon of the Fourth regiment Excelsior Brigade, was on the field throughout tho fight, attending to the wounded, and was himself twice slightly wounded, besides having his horse shot under him—but remained on the field. He was riding near Gen. Hooker, when the horse of the latter was shot dead with a fragment of shell, and was tho first to aasist the General to rise. While dressing the shattered ankle of ono of the men a shell took the top of tho man’s head jo. At one period of the action the rebels mao a desperate charge upon the battery at the right, and fear. ing its capture, Dr. Ridgway rode up to the battery, and, dismounting, continued to assist in working the guns until the rebels were driven off. He was highly compli- mented for the gallantry displayed by him on tho field, ‘Tho national colors were first raised on the walls of York- town by the standard bearer of the Fourth regiment, in which Dr. Ridgway assisted. THE OCCUPATION OF WILLIAMSBURG. After the battle our troops were disposed along tho whole line, and pickets were placed in front. Scouts ‘were sent out to observe the movements of the enemy. An hour or more after midnight Sergeant Groen, from the Fifty-seventh Pennsylvania Volunteers, reported to Geno- ral Jameson, and he to General Kearney, that the enemy was evacuating his position in front of the recent acene of action. He was sent out again, and in two hours re- turned with @ corroboration of his previous state. ment. FORT MAGRUDER IX OUR HANDS. At dawn General Jameson went out with two corh. panies of the One Hundred and Fifth Pennsylvania regi- ment to reconnoitre, and, taking @ detachmont of a dozen men under Lieutenant Gilbert, entered Fort Ma- gruder, which. was found to be dosorted. Tho first to. take possession of the rebel for. tiflcations at Yorktown, he was also the first to enter the works at Williamsburg. He then advanced with his whole brigade, supported by artillery, and entered the ancient town. Tho rear guard of the enemy was just departing ashe entered. Tho town itsolf was almost doserted. Deserters, stragglers and sick and wounded rebels, to the number of nearly si« hundred, wero found in the stroots and suburbs, tn hos pitats and private houses.
