iller to Washington Hopublicane
In a former letter, published in The
Sepnblican, tho writer stated thnt the
jrigado to which ho belonged (Kemper's
if Longstreet's grand division) had been
leieated and more than decimated in
tilled, wounded, and captured the day
aeforo at Frazior's farm. Accordingly,
n order to givo the brigade, a chance to
ret together all its available men, strag
glers, cooks, and oven baggage guards
,vho had been left behind all wore to
;ako their places in tho ranks, for tho
joining battle it was placed a good dis
;anco in tho rear of tho right wing,
jvhich early in tho morning began to
;ako position as rapidly as tho dense
pino nnd scrub oak forests would permit.
So that the men of tho brigado had a good
;hanco to guess, by noting tho bulk of
iho troops passing and the direction
taken, whero tho storm of battlo would
bo most likely to burst forth that ia to
say, on our right.
Finally, lnte in the afternoon, tho or
3or for tho assault was passed along tho
right wing, and tho deadly work began,
with tho preliminary cannon shots and
thowing forward of skirmishers, and
instantly a crasli and yell arose
"As if tho fienite from beaten that foil
Had pealed tho banner cry of hell"
as tho first lino of tho confederates
swept forward in tho charge.
In order to properly appreciate tho
desperation of this battlo it is necessary
breilly to describe tho position held by
Gen." McClellan's army. Tho Uivcr
road, which at that time was a very well
built and wido road for that part of tho
country, for a couple miles runs along
Malvern hill, which is a high bluff of a
hundred feet or so, and which abruptly
drojis into tho plain below. Along tho
crest tho federal general hid planted
cannon as thickly as could bo dono to
work thorn effectively. Both of his
wings were refused, in military parlance,
toward the river, and wero protected
by gunboats so anchored as to obtain a
partial enfilading firo on an assault
ing force. In fact, tho position tak
en up by tho federal army was
i natur.il fortress, so to speak.
When, as above stated, battlo was
joined on the right Kemper's brigado
was moved up to bo within supporting
distanco of the fighting lino, and hero
it remained, sheltered by a point of
woods through which only an occasional
shell crashed during tho battle. As
tho roar of tho battlo increased tho
curiosity of tho men to know what was
being dono became almost frantic,
and numbers, tho writer among them,
sought permission to "shin up" tho
tallest trees in tho vicinity to obtain a
view of tho sceno of action. A good
now of the plain above described was
hero obtained, and it was easy to per
seivo that tho batteries on tho heights
were having things all their own way.
Tho cannon firo of tho confederates was
Qtful and feeble at that point, while tho
batteries on tho heights were in a
continued roar, which was rapidly
accentuated by tho deeper boom
of tho heavy artillery of tho gun-boats
asthoy pitched their "camp kettles in
to tho opposing lines. Lino after line
of confederates swept across tho plain
with the charging 3tep, but they seldom
attained tho foot of tho blazing volcano
whoso fire they wero endeavoring to
quench, and when they came running
back defeated in a confused mass, their
retreat was even more disastrous to
them than their orderly advance. And
this useless hurling of theso devoted
brigades against a position ovpn moro
impregnablo than Maryo's heights at
Fredericksburg continued at intervals
until the sun wont down. The confed
erate batteries, which succeeded in de
ploying from tho woods onto tho plain,
wero invariably knocked into smithe
reens by tho timo they had fired twoor
threo rounds.
From timo to timo flying aid-decamps,
as they dashed by us, would
shout. "All going well on tho right."
"Their left wing is doubled up. " "Jack
son is driving them," and so on, but for
the lifo of us we couldn't see, if all this
wero true, why tho sacrifico of men
plainly visiblo in tho center was necess
ary. Thus matters wont on until sun
down, when tho brigado was ordered
attention, and wo supposed that wo
wore to be ordered into instant action ;
and from tho streams of wounded going
to tho rear, and their statements that
our troops had not gained a foot of
ground and wero much used up, wo au
gured most unfavorably for tho result,
should McClellan throw forward his left
wing in full force Ilowover, ho didn't
do so, and) when darkness closed in wo
wero orderod to stack arms and go to
sleep. Savo now and then a rattling
volloy at various points of tho line, tho
musketry had at this time ceased, al
though tho batteries shelled tho woods
and each other until 9 or 10 o'clock,
whon they too wero hushed.
Wo passed into sleep that night with
tho unpleasant consciousness thut our
arms had sustained a bloody repulse, and
that in all probability wo should have
another sanguinary battlo on tho morrow
with tho issue thoroof very doubtful. It
will not bo doubted that this feeling was
toniowhat a damper upon our martial
enthusiasm.
Tho noxt morning at sun up we received
l.ho welcome intelligence that tho federal
ermy had retreated frdm its strong
position in tho night. As our brigado
was in reserve tho day before, it was or
dered into what might bo termed a tech
nical pursuit very technical, indeed, it
proved to bo, as no very onergotio at
tempt was made so far as I could see to
tackle tho rear guard of tho retreating
army. In order to gain tho lino of re
treat tho brigade, followed by tho other
brigades of tho division, made a detour,
passed over tho road through the
pines leading into tho plain. Hero
tho effect of the concentrated firo
of tho federal batteries was aw
ful to contemplate. On oithor sido of
the road for a hundred yards tho trees
wero mowed down and spluttered up as
if a tornado had passed. Overturned
guns, exploded caissous and ammuni
tion wagons, dead horses and dead ar
tillerists, wore heapo.l in promiscuous
confusion, and it was with creat diffi
culty that tho infantry could forco a
pathway to tho open spaco beyond.
Hero again on cither sido was a verita
ble wreck of dismounted guns, broken
wheels, litnbor chests, horses mas'ied
up, and men crushed out of all sem
blanco to humanity. Tho morning was
bright and bjixitiful, with a fresh breezo
from tho river blowing, but its downy
wings wero laden with tho odors of a
slaughter houso, seized upon in passing
over tho fatal plain below. I havo seen
many battlefields, but nover ono so hor
riblo nnd repulsive to tho sight as
this samo ono of Malvern Hill. I
never had a nightmaro for months
afterward when nil its features wero
not recalled, and tho semblance in tho
dreams could not intensify tho horror
of tho waking reality. From tho thick
ets to tho foot of tho heights whero
McClellan's batteries wero planted it is
no exaggeration to say that for a milo
and a half ono might havo walked on
dead men without putting foot to earth.
And such dead mon 1 Heads cut off,
limbs lopped, bowels torn out, legstorn
from tho trunks, trunks crushed into
an undistinguishablo mass a heaped
up mass of pounded flesh, that had been
strong, breathing men twolve hours be
fore. Oh! it was horrible! and this es
pecially whero the huge shells of tho
gunboats had exploded among tho as
saulting ranks. Wo crossed tho plain,
avoiding stepping on tho dead as well
as wo could, and camo to tho road
whero Jackson had fought. Savo that
tho dead wero not lying so thickly as
on tho plain the samo featuro was ob
servable, tho skill with which tho fed
eral batteries had been massed, for
nearly all wero tho victims of cannon
shot or shell. Tho federal infantry
bore, comparatively speaking, but a
small share in this battlo, whilo the
confederate infantry, owing to tho lay
of tho land, wero very imperfectly sup
ported by their artillory.
As I said, above, tho pursuit was no
pursuit at all, properly speaking, and
tho confederate army encamped a few
miles beyond tho Holds, leaving Gen.
McClennan to pursuo his .way unmo
lested to his shelter at ' Harrison's
landing.
One thing I want to say, is that all
tho confederate wounded captured in
this compaign, and who wero recaptur
ed in tho pursuit, gave warm testimony
to tho humanity and kindness with
which they wero treated by tho Yankee
surgeons, and many a man is living at
this day who would now bo dead if it
had not boon for that kindness.
Thus ended tho first battlo, which
showed tho wonderful pluck and endur
ance of tho army of tho Potomac after
repeated disaster qualities which were
maintained to tho end of tho struggle.
The Small Boy in Goorgia.
Macon (Ga.) Telegraph.) During
tho interval between tho letting out and
the taking in of school the small boy
has been endeavouring to kill timo with
tho varied amusements incidental to tho
lifo of tho youth.
Tho school-house had not fairly closed
their doors beforo tho boys wero batting
and bulling at tho park and over tho
back streets. Ono could not leavo tho
maddening crowd on tho busy thorough
fares and step into tho residenco por
tion of the city without running afoul
of a game of that national nuisanco
bass ball.
But tho sun grow hot as tho summer
solstico camo on, and tho balls and bats
wero laid away, and tho boys took up
kites. Every household was robbed of
its papers, laid carefully atvay to read
on Sunday, to bo used up in tho manu
facture of kites. But tho small boy of
tho period needs something moro oxcit
ing than standing like a statuo reeling up
and watching tho wriggle of a kite tail.
Consequently tho kite season was of
short duration.
Then tho firemaniae fever struck them,
and evorywhero knots of boys could bo
seen with minaturo hoso-earts running
at full tilt down tho sidowalks. Tho
morchants wero robbed of their sprink
ling hoso and nozzles to supply tho do
main!. This also had its run, and tho
hoso-cart went tho way of winter fuel.
Then camo tho walking match mania.
Go whero you would you would find a
braco or so of coatless boys, panting as
they strode around tho blocks, whip
ping their baro calves with koen peach
treo switches, and mopping brows with
sponges stolen from tho bath-tubs. In
additional to these walking matches they
had hurdlo races by stretching cords at
intervals m tho alloyways and junking
over them.
Thoso crazes having been thoroughly
exhausted, tho season isnowonus whon
tho small boy is ripo for Satan, who is
said to bo always ready to find some
thing far idlo hands to do. It is tho
timo when, tho legitmato amusements
being pegged out, the small boy must
tax his ingenuity to kill time. But day
draws its weary length along with them.
Wo montioned yesterday how he trailed
stnfl'od snakes across tho' sidewalk at
night and frightened pedestrians out of
their wits. But tho stuffed snake rack
et has about subsided, and they aro con
juring up other bedevilment. Wo hear
from them in every direction. A gen
tleman on Academy squaro missod his
favorite housj cat tho other day, und on
going into the back yard ho discovered
his boys with tho sprinkling hoso.
They had fastened tho cat in tho hencoop
and with tho nozzlo through tho cracks
wero giving pussy a shower bath that
was not at all pleasant.
A Collego street father found his boys
m a stablo. Thoy had partitioned off a
small room, supplied it witlt counters
and shelves, and Jiad a regular grocery
store, doing a thriving business. The
father discovered that all tho preservos,
canned goods, BUgar, pickles, and so on
hud been takon from his pantry, and
wero being bartered to tho neighbor
hood boys. A brandied peach was
worth two glass agates, and a tap cord
would command a match box full 1
peach presorves.
And so it goes. Wo could fill a col
umn with tho dopredations upon the
family pautry and pocketbook by these
boys who aro waiting for school to ro
sumo. As that timo is nearly twe
months off, tho prospect is that the
town will not only be painted deep red
but turned upsido down.
A Tcnr Drck" Itof.
A steady stream ot business nnd sport
ing mon passed through tho parlor on tho
second floor of No. 11 West Twenty-fifth
street yesterday morning. Tho men gnied
sorrowfully at tho rcmnins ot Charles 1$.
Ransom, tho dead sporting man. Tho mild
k-atures looked ns natural as when in his
palmy days ho raked in tho thousands of
dollars to tho click ot tho ivory chips. On
either sido ot tho bier staid businessmen
and flashy gnmblers faced each other. Con
versation wns enrried on in subdued tones,
but many kinds words wero spoken ot tho
dead. A man of perhnps 30 years was
among tho first ot tho callers of tho day.
Ho was unknown to tho attendants, but
was visibly affected by tho sad sceno be
fore him. No ono over remembered having
seen him before. As ho turned to leavo ho
plucked a puro wltito roso from his cont
and laid it upon tho casket. Upon tho
flower something glistened in tho sombro
liyht. It wns a tear-drop.
A Ilell-lNiucli mill Toothache.
t t was on a Lehigh Valley train bound
south tho other day. Approaching tho
sent occupied by a lady, tho conductor
pleasantly cxt tided his right hand, with
tho punch handily adjusted to its fingers.
Thereupon tho lady quiotly pushed furthor
into her scat, nnd with a very qtiiizical ex
pression on her countennnco, remarked in
n tone of surprise: "Ah! but my dear sir,
I do not want my tooth extracted. It
hasn't been a source of annoyance to mo in
several days." Tho conductor stepped
nearer to tho end of tho seat and was
about to mako a facetious reply, ns lie con
sidered that tho lady was not in earnest,
when slio met him with: "Didn't I tell you
in sufficiently plain tonus that I would not
submit to tho operation? Aro you deaf?
Go on about your business witlt that in
Btrunientl" Sho wns really in earnest, and
when sho learned what tho punch was, for
blushes suffused her face. Wilkcsbarro
