Letter from the Field of Conflict—Con

Headquarters 7th Me. Voi.s. i
Camp near Harrison's Landing, >
July 11, 18K2. >
It must be remembered that in operations
covering such an extent of ground, and in con
tinuous battles of eight days, the part seen by
one person, or that borne by one division of
the army, bears but a small proportion to the
whitln
On the march from Goldings, at dawn, Sun
day the 29th, we passed pile after pile of com
missary stores that were slowly blazing, and
arriving at the Trent House, took a position
and waited for the enemy. He not making hie
appearance, we resumed our march and reached
Savage Station in the afternoon. Here we
passed the extensive hospitals, filled with
wounded and sick, and saw heaps of ammuni
tion and stores of all descriptions prepared for
the flames. The heat was intense, and the
dust filled the air.
Gen. Davidson aud Col. Mason were both
prostrated by sun-stroke and carried to the
rear. The plain was crowded with marching
columns, and chaos seemed everywhere. At
length we were formed in the woods behind
the plain, in two lines of columns, closed in
mass, aud it is said to have been the intention
of old Sumner to hurl the whole thirty thous
and infantry there posted, upon the enemy as
soon as he had fairly debouched upon the
plain. This was known to many officers, and
they exulted in the prospect of an opportunity
te wipe out the disgrace of the retreat, and to
drive the triumphant columns of the enemy
back to their strongholds. They not coming
up, brigade after brigade was ordered to the
rear. At length our turn came.
As we had halted to rest, a mile from Savage
Station, and as the men were supplying them
selves with bran new clothing from a deserted
-clothing depot, the ball opened and we heard
behind us the usual sounds of battle. We
faced about and moved, in the darkening twi
light, in solid column toward the scene of ac
tion. Many stragglers fell in with us: the men
reechoed the cheers of those already engaged,
as they pressed eagerly to the front, and I
heard the murmur, •‘Cold steel, cold steel,”
ran through the ranks. We arrived upon the
field just as the enemy made his closing effort,
but the fortunes of the day were already de
cided. We took position, but the firing ceased.
Gen. Brooks came riding along, his wounded
loir liomlu tmA atari omloeo/l no in .... __
march. As we were moving away, the lights
of those seeking for their friends on the battle
field looked like will-o’-the-wisps in the dis
tance. Soon a drenching rain set in, and still
we marched on in the intense darkness.
The head of our column w as delayed, and
Sedgwick and Richardson passed. The road
was bad and narrow.
After several hours of drowsy tramping, only
guided in our course by an occasional candle
at the roadside, we arrived at the bridge over
White Oak Swamp. Here was another delay;
but at dawn we marched over, followed by
thousands of stragglers and the cavalry rear
guard.
During this night's marcli we hnd passed the
enemy in strong force not a mile and a half
distant, and only the incomparable stupidity of
one of their generals, a stupidity that I sec
has already received the censures of the Rich
mond press, saved us from annihilation. Now
a short rest was vouchsafed us, and half the
regiments lay down in order of buttle, while
the rest went on picket. Here we were deemed
safe from immmediate pursuit, in the direction
of the Chickahominy. The artillery was
packed, the generals were occupying a beauti
ful (arm house near, and the tired soldiers
were stretched in sleep under every avaiiihle
shade, or now making their coffee or bathing
in a brook just adjacent, when suddenly burst
from six field batteries the most appalling fire
any one on that field had ever been submitted
to. The rebels had discovered our whole pos
ition by means of a deserter, got our range,
and poured an enfilade lire of shot and shell
upon us, lasting over an hour.
The 25th N, Y. broke and ran in the wildest
confusion; the other regiments threw them
selves flat; the artillery was hurried off to the
rear, with the exception of one gun of Mott's,
which was dismounted, and four caissons that
were afterward blown up.
Gen. Smith, who was dressing at the time,
lost all his personal effects. Many horses and
men were disabled. All could not but be af
fected at the distress of the female inhabitants
of the house, upon which the hottest fire was
directed, as their husbands and father were
killed before their eyes.
Hancock's and Brooks* Brigades now' went
to the rear at a double quick: ours received
no orders to follow, and we prepared ourselves
for the usual infantry attack; and again I must
say that the courage and steadiness displayed
by our men was truly wonderful. Every one
seemed to act as if not only his own reputa
tion, but that of his regiment and his State,
lay in his individual tearing.
The enemy now made a beautiful cavalry
charge on the deserted piece of Mott’s, but
were forced by our fire to relinquish it. Our
orders then came to fall back and take posi
tion in the woods behind us, and slowly and
defiantly we marched back, the 7th bringing
up the rear; and soon our pickets joined us
in our new position.
Now the battle began to rage fiercely on our
left, and we were without further molestation,
except an occasional skirmish fire. At dark,
the battle of “White Oak Swamp” was over,
and at ten o’clock we resumed our march,
(.'apt, Ayers sullenly firing at the euemy till
the last man had departed. On, on through
the dust and heat and darkness we pushed; on
without delays, till 8 o’clock the next (Tues
day) morning, found us not far from the James
river, and the wearied soldiers threw them
selves on the ground far an hour’s sleep. In
this much of ten hours without rest, the Sev
enth lost not a single straggler.
To explain those long marches, which hard
ly seem warranted by the distances to bo
passed, it must lie bore in mind that we were
the extreme right of the army, and had to be
swung round on a circle of over thirty miles,
and were often obliged to go the “longest way
around,” to avoid being cut off by the enemy.

CAUTION.—It has been estimated that over two

quacks annually, in New Kuglanu alone, without any
benefit to those'who pay it. 31«**t of this sum comes
out of a class of persons who are th2 least able to lose
it, but ouce paid they can never get it back, and they
are conqielled to suffer the wrong in silence, not dar
ing to ex{Mtse tho cheat tor f#*ar of rrptsing them

to men who are alike destitute of honor, character,
