[From our Regular Correspondent]
Letter from the 7th Regiment.
Co. K, 7th Me. Vols., Camp near 1
Harrison's Landing, July 8th. 1862. y.
To the Editor of the Pree*: •
We have had a hard time. I cannot attempt
at this time to describe our retreat, but will
give you the outline of our operations, reserv
ing details for a future occasion.
On tin* 23d ultimo, our right wing was at
tacked and thrown back on the line of Me
chaniesvillc and Hanover. The former place,
you will remember, was taken by our brigade,
after a sharp combat, on the 26th of May. By
4 o'clock, P. M., the right wing had fallen back
•o near our camp on the south side of the
Chlckahominy, that we could hear the volley
and see the smoke rising above the trees; at
dark the firing ceased, and the night was quiet;
but In the morning the action commenced in
earnest, and continued through the forenoon*
At 12 o clock the enemy had gamed possession
of Gaines’ Hill, and were there within shelling
range of our camp. They at once began send
ing cast-iron compliments to us, but, our guns
being heavier and of longer range, were soon
silenced. At 6 P. M.. they commenced an at
tack on our front and shelled our camp until
dark. We replied with twenty well-served
field guns, and for a time things were lively, I
assure yon. During the night, nothing of note
occurred except the movement of heavy col
umns of troops in various directions.
On this day the loss in the regiment was
■light: Corporal Scott W. Norcross received a
severe wound on the shoulder, and was sent
to the depot fur wounded at Savage's station.
On Saturday, the 28th, all was quiet until
12.30 P. M., when a smart artillery engage
ment began, doing no damage to our regiment
except wounding two men slightly. At 3
o’clock, the enemy had secured possession of
two important points, which we were not
strong enough to retake, and we at once
saw that we must fall back. We then began
to destroy everything which could not be re
moved, tents, rations, munitions, baggage, Ac.,
leaving nothing whatever to go as trophies to
Richmond; this complete, we retired slowly
• and in perfect order towards the James river.
At 3 o’clock on Sunday morning, our divi
sion (Smith’s) was ordered to cover the re
treat of the army. When three miles from
Savage’s station, Capt. Cochrane of our com
pany, who had been feeble for several days,
became so ill that Dr. Hunter ordered an am
bulance for him, and he was taken along with
the regiment, and after reaching James River
was sent to Hygeia Hospital at Fortress Mon
roe, as were all the sick and wounded saved
on the retreat. Lieut. E. D. Johnson then as
sumed command of the Company. Before
reaching Savages station the enemy came up
and commenc'd a furious attack, but we drove
them^rack th heavy loss. At the station
was a large amount of stores, ammunition and
tents; the railroad having been already des
troyed we could not remove them, and were
forced to burn everything. At Savage’s sta
I tiuu were 305 sick and wounded soldiers, all
1 so ill or so badly wounded, that they could not
■f be removed. We left surgeons, hospital stores
% and tents sufficient for them, and sorrowfully
abandoned them to the mercies of the foe.—
Among them was Corporal Norcross, before
\ mentioned, and Eugene Sullivan of our Com
pany. We marched all that night, and at day
light crossed White Oak Swamp. We then
halted until the other divisions or the army,
with their trains could get out of our way.—
At 12 o’clock M. the enemy came on to us,
and began a cannonade of two hundred Shells
per minute. We had a terrible contest One
of our batteries was silenced immediately, but
being promptly supported by the reserve artil
lery, we held them at bay until after dark, and
then resumed our retreat The loss among
the infantry of the division was light; the 7th,
lucky as ever, did not lose a man that day and
night, but the batteries suffered severely.
We marched throughout the night, and at
daylight Tuesday, July 1st, reached the James
Kiver, six miles above here. At l» A. M. we
marched back to the front and waited an at
tack, but we did not get a chance at them that
day, but the division on our left, and nearer
the river, hail a heavy battle, in w hich the
gunboats participated, routing the enemy with
terrible carnage. Wednesday, at 2 o’clock A.
M., we took up our line of march, and at 3
o’clock it came on to rain, and continued to
fall heavily until 1 P. M., at which time we
reached Harrison landing near City Point, the
wettest and muddiest set of fellows you ever
saw. The whole army came in during the
day, and Gen. McClellan in person established
the line of the new position. On the 3d insl.
we moved to the front about two miles, and
are now throwing up strong field works. We
have already mounted 20 heavy seige guns in
this division, and I am told that works are be
ing extended along our entire front. Our po
sition is Impregnable, but we must have more
men, and rest for those we have got. Few
regiments in the army have five hundred men
fit for duty, and yet have to do the work of a
thousand. How long we shall wait here is un
known to me; but give us reinforcements and
we will fight the ground over again, hard as it
may be when we have once been within two
hours’ march of Richmond. “Old Abe” has just
passed through the camp, and we were turued
out to see him. He looks hard.

CAUTION.—It has been estimated that over two

benefit to those who pay it. Most of this sum comes
out of a class of persons' who are the least able to lose
it, but once paid they can never pet it back, and they
are compelled to softer tb«f wrong in silence, not dar
ing to expose the cheat for fear of exposing them
setres. All this comes from trusting, without inquiry,
to men who are alike MIMS of honor, character,
and skill, and whose only recommendation is their
own false and extravagant assertions, in praise of
