Yet during this spell of quietude, or, more Properly, necessary ropore, the Operations of tho adver- wary have been continually watched. Though Johnston had withdrawn, the mor force loft by him, aided by bodies of irregular horsemen, were even mere audacious ‘and indefatigable than when they were sustained by tho ‘weight of his infantry. This fact required greater watch- fulness; for it was not known at what moment one of ‘those most annoying of all attacks, a sudden dash upon our line, would occur, On tho Big Black, as a means of de ence against such occurrences, our troops have passed mwet of the summer, and that to great advantage, though ‘they have scarcely eshanged camps. Frequevt small ‘*alfairs took place datiy upon our first settlement in ‘this quarter, but with inyariable sucecss attending our wide, the enemy realizing this fact so strongly and so often that of late we have been subject to little or no disturbance from that source, However, to keep up his information of the cnemy’s ‘whereabouts and designs, and that of a strictly reliable character, constitutes one of the most essential attributes of success‘ul generalship. Reconnoiesanees in force, or consisting of small parties, information gathored from Prisoners or from the inhabitants of the country, form several methods of socuring a knowledge of the oppouent’s ‘army. But of ali means the most successful and reliablo is that of an officiout system of soouts and scouting. This wervice is one of extreme danger, and as a consequence one finds engaged in it nope but the best of men; for not only is great daring necessary, but a shrowdne:s and @Pinposuro cqual to all contingencies, to combat des sees of those whom you oe 4 Fie beilevs abything bat ‘thelr own convictions—to affiliate, so to speak, with the ‘women, children and sérvants during Your eqjourn tor _ the night at some wayside cabin or mansion, and mako ‘thom think you are a remarkable man, a true patrict to ‘Vhs cause of Southern independence and an ardent Lea _Tienti to the Almighty for the longevity of the cont ey. ‘This would constitute invincibility tg the Cred minds of the gullible population & the South. 1 have met scouts to whom, in every sense of the term, we might @pply the appollaticn gentleman.

Accordingly, ‘Captain H. J. Hall, chief of scouts, Fourth division, Fif- teenth corps, accompanied by ten” men, took his depar- ture on a soout from Vicksburg early on u cer- tain morning. They mmediately pushed towards our Nines on tho Big Black, where they arrived af- ter a ride of several hours, and haied ao few bours more for refreshment, Having satisied sheir wants, they again struck out, crossed the river and found themselves alone in the enemy's country, and sur- Founded by a vindictive, relenticss aud undigeiplined sol- dicry. ‘hero were but elevem in the eutire party—en- eomparsing them were thousands, river the Captain directed himself towards the vicinity of Raymond, making a detour of the towa, and thence to wards Ciintoa, n station on the Jackson Railroad; approach ing u: near this point as prudence seemed to dictate, the party directed thotr observations towards Vernon thence they struck off in a northerly direction.

This force was arrayed in a° sort | of permanent battle Tine, the left resting at Raymond, the centre at Clintou, and the right at Ver- non, ihese positions being commanded as follows:— Wirt Adams at Raymond, Crosby at Clinton, and Whit- field at Vernon. In advance of this line, towards Boltou and Edwarda’ Station, a number of detached bodies were thrown'out jn turn, to look after developments on our side.
