tion of the circle of investment; and, daring the previous afternoon, the Seventeenth Corps ♦ir 4118 A“ a “ Pushed its operations on the far ther side of the Augusta Railroad, so as to secure possession of a hill, known as Leggett’s .1 j* .because Gen. Leggett's division had car ried it by assault. Giles A. Smith’s division was on Leggett’s left, deployed with a weak left hank ‘in air,’ in military phraseology. It was in carrying this hill that Gen. Gresham, a great favorite, was badly wounded; and there also Col. Tom Reynolds, now of Madison, Wis., was shot through the leg.” “During the night, I had full reports from P*rts of our line, most of which was par- ** all y intrenched as against a sally, and finding that McPherson was stretching out too much on his left flank, I wrote him a note early in the morning not to extend so much by his left; for we had not troops enough to completely invest the place, and I intended to destroy utterly all parts of the Augusta Railroad to the east of Atlanta, then to withdraw from the left flank “dadd to the right. In that letter I ordered McPherson not to extend any further to the left, but to employ Gen. Dodge’s corps (Six teenth), then forced out of position, to destaoy every rail and tie of the railroad, from Decatur up to his skirmish line, and I wanted uim (McPherson) to be ready, as soon as Gen. Gar rard returned from Covington (whither I had sent him), to move to the extreme right of Thomas, so as to reach, if possible, the railroad below Atlanta, viz: the Macon road.” OPERATIONS OF JOLT TWENTY-SECOND. “ In the morning we found the strong line of parapet, ‘ Peach-Tree line,’ to the front of Scho field and Thomas, abandoned, and our lines were advanced rapidly close up to Atlanta. For some moments I supposed the enemy intended to evacuate, and in person was on horseback at the head of Schofield's troops, who had ad vanced in front of the Hurt House to some open ground, from which we could plainly see the whole rebel line of parapets, and I saw their men dragging up from the intervening valley, by the distillery, trees and saplings for abatits. Our skirmishers found the enemy down in this valley, and we could see the rebel main line strongly manned, with guns in position at in tervals. Schofield was dressing forward his lines, and I could hear Thomas further to the right engaged.” It was at this moment that Gen. McPherson rode up with his stuff to see Gen. Sherman about the letter, sent him the night before. The narrative continues: “We went back to the Hurt House, a double frame-building with a porch, and sat on the steps, discussing the chances of battle, and of Hood’s general charac ter. McPherson had also been of the same class, at West Point, with Hood, ischofieid, and Sheridan. We agreed we ought to be unusual ly cautious and prepared at all times for sallies and hard fighting, because Hood, though not deemed much of a scholar, or of great mental ca pacity, ’./as undoubtedly a brave, determined, and rash man; and the change of commanders at that particular crisis, argued the displeasure of the Confederate Government with the cau tious, but prudent conduct of Gen. Jos. E. John ston. “McPherson was in excellent spirits, well pleased at the progress of events so far, and had come over purposely to see me about the order I had given him to use Dodge’s corps to break up the railroad, saying that the night before he had gained a position on Leggett's Hill, from which he could look over the rebel parapets, and see the high smoke-stack of a large foundry in Atlanta; that before receiving my order, he had diverted Dodge’s two divisions (then in motion) from the main road, along a diagonal ope that led to his extreme left Hank, then held by Giles A. Smith's division (Seventeenth corps), for the purpose of strengthening that flank; and that he had sent some intrenching-tools there, to erect some batteries, from which he intended to knock down that foundry, and otherwise to damage the buildings inside of Atlantia. “He said he could put all his pioneers to work, and do with them in the time indicated, all I had proposed to do with Gen. Dodge’s two divisions. Of course I assented at once, and we walked down the road a short distance, sat down at the foot of a tree where I had my map, and on it pointed out to him Thomas’s position and his own. I then explained, minutely, that, after we had sufficiently broken up the Augus ta road, I wanted to shift his whole army around by the rear to Thomas’s extreme right, and hoped thus to reach the other railroad at East Point. While we sat there, we could hear lively skirmishing going on near us (down about the distillery), and occasionally round-shot from twelve or twenty-four pound guns came through the trees, in reply tojthose of Schofield, and we could hear similar sounds ail along down the lines of Thomas to our right, and his own to the left; but presently the firing appear ed a little more brisk (especially over about Giles A. Smith’s division), and then we heard an occasional gun back toward Decatur. I ask ed what it meant. We took my pocket-com pass (which L always carried), and by noting the direction 6f the sound, we became satisfied that the firing was too far to our left rear to be explained by known facts, and be hastily call ed for his horse, his staff, and his orderlies • * * jumped on his horse, saying he would hurry down his line and send me back word what these sounds meant. ’ DEATH OF GEN. M’PHEBSON. “Although the sound of musketry on eur left grew in volume. 1 was not so much disturbed by it as by the sound of artillery back toward De catur. I ordered Schofield at once to send a bri gade back to Decatur (some five miles) and was walking up and down the porch of the Hurt House, listening, when one of McPherson’s staff, with his horse covered with sweat, dashed op to the porch, and reported that Gen. Mc Pherson was either 'killed or a prisoner.’ ” [The particulars here given of the death of General McPherson will be carried forward to a special article next week.] “Meantime the sounds of battle rose on our extreme lett more and more furious, extending to the place where I stood, at the Hurt House The reports that came from all parts of the field revealed clearly what was the game of my antagonist, and the ground somewhat favored him. The railroad and wagon- road from Decatur to Atlanta lie along the sum mit, from which the waters flow, by short, steep valleys, into the Peachtree and Chattahoochee, to the west, and by other valleys of gentler de clivity, toward the east (Ocmulgee). The ridges and level ground were mostly cleared, and had been cultivated as corn or cotton fields, but where the valleys were broken they were left in a state of nature—wooded, and full of under growth. McPherson’s line of battle was across this railroad, along a general ridge, with a gen tle bat cleared valley to his front, between him and the defenses of Atlanta; and another valley, behind him, was clear of timber in part, bnt to his left-rear the country was heavily wooded. Hood, during the night of July 21st, had with drawn from bis Peachtree line, had occupied the fortified line of Atlanta, facing north and east, with Stewart’s—formerly Polk’s—corps and part of Hardee’s and with G. W. Smith’s divis ion of militia. His own corps and part of Har dee’s had marched out to the road leading from McDonongh to Decatur, and had turned so as to strike the left and rear of McPhersons line ‘in air.’ At the same time he had sent Wheel er’s division of cavalry against the trains parked in Decatur. Unluckily for us, I had sent away the whole of Garrard’s division of cavalry dur ing night of the 20th. with orders to proceed to Covington, thirty-miles east, to burn two im portant bridges across the Ulcofanhatchee and Yellow rivers, to tear up the railroad, to dam age it as much as possible from Stone Mountain eastward, and to be gone four days; so that McPherson had no cavalry in hand to guard that flank. “The enemy was, therefore, enabled, under cover ot the forest, to approach qnite near be fore he was discovered; indeed, his skirmish line had worked through the timber, and got into the field to the rear of Giles A. Smith’s division of the Seventeenth Corps unseen, had captured Murray’s battery of regular artillery, moving through these woods entirely ungarded, and had got possession of several of the hospit al camps. The right of this rebel line struck Dodge’s in motion ; but, fortunate.y, this corps (Sixteenth) had only to halt, face to tl e left, and was in line of battle; and this corjg not only held in check the enemy, but. drove him back through the woods. About the same time this same force had struck Gen. Giles A. Smith’s left flank, doubled it back, captured four guns in position, and the party engaged in building the very battery which was the special object of McPherson’s visit to me, and almost entirely en veloped the entire left flank. The men, howev er, were skillful, and gradually fell back, com pressing their own lines, and gaining strength by making junction with Leggett’s division of the Seventeenth Cor :s, well and strongly posted on the hill. One or two brigades of the Fifteenth Corps, ordered by McPherson, came rapidly across the open field to the reer, from the direc tion of the railroad, filled up the gar from Blair’s now left to thehead of Dodge’s column— now facing to the general left -thus for>»ing a strong left flank—at right angles to the ’ iginal line of battle. . The enemy attacked '«aly and repeatedly, the whole of this flana, met an equally fierce resistance; and on that ground a bloody battle raged from little, after2noon till into the night. “A part of Hood’s plan of action was to sally from Atlanta at the same moment; but this sally was not, for some reason, simultaneous, for the first attack on our extreme left flank had been checked and repulsed before the sally came from the direction of Atlanta. Meantime, Col. Sprague in Decatur, had got his teams harnessed up, and safely conducted his trains to the rear of Scho field’s position, holding in check Wheeler’s cav alry till he had got off all his trains, with the exception of three or four wagons. I remained near the Hurt House, receiving reports and send ing orders, urging Gens. Thomas and Schofield to take advantage of the absence from their front of so considerable a body as was evidently en gaged on our left, and, if possible, to make a lodgement in Atlanta itself; but they reported i that the lines to their front, at all accessible , points, were strong, by nature and by art, and were fully manned. “About 4 p. m. the expected sally came from' t Atlanta, directed mainly against Ledgett’s Hill ; and along the Decatur road. At Leggett’s Hill | they were met and bloodily repulsed. Along ! the railroad they were more successful. Sweep- , iug over a small force with two guns, they j reached our main line, broke through it, and 1 got possession of De Gress’s battery of twenty- pound Parrotts, killing every horse and turning the guns against us. Gen. Cbas. R. Wood's di vision of the Fifteenth Corps was on the extreme which places her in many things on a level with men. She cannot be depended upon to get out of bed at four o’clock of a winter morning to make a fire and get breakfast, while her lord and master takes a beauty nap, with anything like the certainty that she once could. She won’t eat up the chicken’s gizzard while there's any breast left—no, nor afterwards either. She objects to fill her husband's pipe and “start” it with a few gentle puffs, as any professor’s spouse ought to do. She opens her husband’s letters on the same ground that,he opens hers. A man has no right here to whip his wife, or to harness her to a plow, as the Germen farmers do. In fact,it’s getting so in our country that a wife has almost as many rights as a husband, and the conviction is slowly gaining ground that a mar riage is a matter of mutual service and atten tion. We owe Prof. Christlieb something for bringing this to our notice. He may have stop ped ns on the brink of a jirecipice, as it were. Olil Age to Childhood.

Schofield brought forward all his i We are emphaticly in ^Ae age of profanity, available batteries, to the number of twenty ] and it seems to us that guns, to a position to the left front of the Hurt House, whence wd could overlook the field of action, aud directed a heavy tire over the heads ol Gen. Wood's men against the enemy; and we saw Wood’s troops advance and encounter the enemy, who had secured possession of the old line of parapet which had ,been held by our men. His right crossed this parapet, which he swept back, taking it in Hank; aud, at the same time, the division which had been driven back along the railroad was rallied by Gen. Logan in per son, and fought for thtir former ground. These combined forces drove the enemy into Atlanta, recovering the twenty-pound Parrott guns—but one of them was found ‘bursted’ while in the possession of the enemy. The two six-pounders farther in advance were, however, lost, and had been hauled back by the enemy into Atlanta. Poor Captain De Gress came to me in tears, la menting the loss of his favorite guns; when they were regained he had only a few men left, and not a single horse. He asked an order for a re equipment, but I told him he must beg and bor row of others until he could restore his batteries now reduced to three guns.” “The battle of July 22d is generally called the Battie of Atlanta. It extended from the Hurt House to General Giles A. Smith’s posi tion, about a mile beyond the Augusta Railroad, and then back toward Decatur, the whole extent of ground being fully seven miles. In part the ground was clear and in part densely wooded. rode over the whole of it the next day, and it bore the marks of a bloody conflict. The enemy had retired during the night inside of Atlanta, and we remained masters of the situation out side. I purposely .allowed the Army of the Tenn essee to fight the battle, almost unaided, save by demonstrations on the part of Generals Scho field and Thomas against fortified lines in their immediate fronts, and by detaching, as describ ed, one of Schofield’s brigades to Decatur, because I knew that the attacking force could only be a part of Hood’s army, and that, if any assistance were rendered by either of the other armies, the Army of the Tennessee would be jealous. Nobly did they do their work that day, and terrible was the slaughter done to our ene my, though at sad cost to ourselves. ” The loss, as set forth in Gen. Logan’s report of July 24th, was Federals, 3,521, and Confederates, 3,220. These figures, however, are not official. Kimball House, January, 1878. [to be continued.] DR.

Dr. Theodore Christlieb, the German “evan gelical” whose sweetness and light so took cap tive the rest of the evangelicals at the alliance meeting in New York some years ago, has found a serious blot npon our civilization in the great republic. As Colonel Higginson tells the story in the Woman’s Journal, Prof. Christlieb con fided to a recent American visitor that he had great fears for the future of our nation because the “spirit of Christ” was not here. Pressed to explain his meaning, he did not cite any of those financial or social scandals that make us uneasy, “but precisely declared that on more than one occasion he heard an American mar ried woman say to her husband: “Dear will you bring me my shawl?” and the hnsband had brought it! and further, that he has seen a man come home and find his wife sit ting in the best chair in the parlor, and not on ly did she not rise to get his dressing gown and slippers, but Bhe did not rise at all, and let him find his own chair as well as other comforts. These were the things that the profound profes sor, named after the “love of Christ," found to evidence a dangerous lack of that article in the United States. It is hard to overestimate the value of this well-weighed criticism from so em inent a source, based, as it is, on undeniable facts.
