Those belonging to Jackson’s corps knew how to march. We found out that wc hadn't taken the first lesson, for those who had been with Jackson for some time would ask, “Boys, are you ped dling?” Wc ail had knapsacks and a blanket or two. The 12th Georgia had been with him some time. They had no baggage, and told us we would soon get rid of all but our cartridge box and gnu it stayed with Jackson. One night, alter wc had been march ing two days, about D o’clock just such a fuss I never heard before. A squad of Yankee cavalry came down the line like a flash. The road was clear before you could think, and some of the boys 200 yards from the road. A fel low came down the road ou a gray horse, and word came down the line, “Stop that man on the gray horse;” but we didn’t stop him. After awhile the officers began trying to get the men into line again and did so, after a long time. The writer was run over in the melee. The fence on the right of tile road looked like a storm ! had swept over it. SMdiers are Everything that made a fuss wade them look as if they were ready to run, although they did not know which way to do so. The next day, (26ih of June, 1SG2.) about 12 o'clock wc beard cannon firing, and later wc began to hear small arms; and at 1 5 o'clock we came in sight of a battery uuliuibered and ready for action. About the time we got [opposite the battery boom went | «ue and another, and here come j the shells from the Yankees. We began to form a line of bat tie. At this lime I saw a sight. Soldiers were gathering around the doctor. You have no idea how sick a man can get in a little while. Never having seen men j get sick so fast. I wondered if an epidemic had struck the arm}* — | We went on into the fight. I felt I a little queer, bill didn't think I was sick. We rushed on when we j commenced firing.

Now, I tell you. when they began sawing the bone, there was screaming in earnest.— Nearly all the boys had enough when we got through this fight — Water was scarce in this region. I have seen soldier* drinking wa ter out of a branch and dead men ami horses lying in the branch above. They weie so thirsty they would drink water if it was part blood. JoHxnie.

I found a hill on the north bank of the Chicka manga, between my right and the railroad bridge, guarded by Gen eral Polk, which completely com manded my line of retreat. I ordered Brigadier General Polk to occupy this hill at once with two regiments of infantry and a section of artillery.
