she was a glorious creature perhaps a tittle vain
As she swept alone; the Arenue, drawing a silken
train,
Her robe was verr costly, her trail was verrlonr.
And murmured admiration swelled out from every
inrong
Of idle swells and loalera the fair one chanced lo
meet,
Or who ogled her from taverns end corners if the
streets.
And thus she promenaded, through many weary
squares,
Astonishing the peop'e with her grand and lofty
airs
Butat length her train grew heat y, and with labor
on she strode,
M1a her garment, like a drag-net, took the
sweepings of the road,
On she struggled, till she fainted t her brain spun
quite around,
And two ner-it-har.d policemen tried to bear her
from thefcround.
Though well and atle4odled, their strength was

They could lift the gentle damsel, but they eouM'ot

We remained here long enough to care for
our wonnaea, aoom inirtr in number, includ
ing the gallant Lieut. Co). Sheets, of the 61st
Indiana, who has since died, and at the same
time ready to give the enemy a second whip
ping should he advance. This, however, he
did not do daring onr occupation of thli nosl-
tlon, and not until General Forrest's whole
aiviBioa came up did thry start In pursuit.
By this time we were some mtlos advanced
but they pressed ul 10 cIobcIv that about al:
o'clock In the evening we were again compelled

their whole force engaged, but by Col. fllrelghl-S

wua terrific. The flashes from muxkitry and
artillery lighting up the hill from all sides, ren
dering the scencof death and earnago onu of
the utmost sublimity.
Col. Strclgbt'i horso was shot under htm
three times and finally killed. It was now
about 10 o'clock, yet by tho light of tie full

had begun towacr and full back, unable to

the admirable position ao skilfully selected by
Cot. Strelght for our line of battle. In a short
lime all was quiet, uud we werelctorlou on

Deforeprocccdlng further the Colonel ordered
Col. Hathaway to He in waiting with hla regi

The loss of the enemy In the Tsrlon battle
and skirmishes during the fire days preceding
our lurrcnder, I am ntlsQed, Oom personal
observation and reliable Information from other
sources, amounted to full 500 killed and wound
ed, besides a large number of prisoners; whllo
our loss was not far from 100. Such a wn
di (Terence In the casualties cm only be account
ed for by the skill with which Cot. Strelght se
lected hli position! for giving the enemy baltta
and the admirable manner In which his troop
were always posted, which he took rare was
alwiyi done with especial regard to the safety
and preservation of the men concealing them
behind log, rises In the ground, clnmp of
buibc, rocks, ct so when the enemy al
vanced, our men, with almost perfect safety tn
themselves, could send death and destruction
Into their rinks.
The small lose on our side ta notwithstindlnr
astonishing, when we take Into consideration
that during the time wc had al least eight hour
of as severe fighting as has occurred In any en
gagement durlugthewar. Infactminyof our
oiucera and meu declare uiat at times w e liat
