GENERALS LEE, LONGSTRENT AND JAGKSON. At half-past cight A. M. General Lee, accompanied by bis full stat, rode slowly aloug the front of the Confede- Tate lines from left to right, aud took up his station for a time beyond Hamilton’s Crossing, and in rear of the bat- teries on the extreme Confederate right. It would be presumptuous in me to say one word in commendation of diguity of General Lee's courage, when ke is under fire. No one who sees and knows his demeanor in ordi- nary life would exject suytbing else from one so calm, 80 undemoustrative and unassuming. But the Qdezeription applied after the battle of Alma to Lord Raglan, by Marshal St. Arnaud, and in which, noticing Lord Raglau’s umconscionsiess under tire, he speaks of his “antique heroism,” seems te me so appli- caple to General Lee that 1 eannot forbear recalling tt here. Ata subsequent peiiod of day General Lee assumed his station the bill which takes its name from bim, and thence, ih company with General !ong- strect, calmly watched the repulse of the repeated federal heights on which he stood. Occa- sionaily General Jackson rode up to the vot and mingled im conversation with the other two leading gonerals. Once General Longstreet exclaimed to him, ‘Are you not @ before you down till they ‘© tae or PIL therer”’ to which cowe a little ncarer, ware them.’” “on replied OPENING OF THR NIGHT.
