am able to give any cornet alntement from, In re-

ever alnoe the tight, been eitherin the saddle or In

in regird to ihl* regiment being ih the aervice ao
long and botng 1. a-tlve, that 1 claim a pae ing re-
mark for it now In Louisiana Inactive servióo ;
and in doing Ihl*, I need but state what the gallant
. hero, Gen Gr' eu. rc markod on the battle field, a
few minute* before lm fell. He said: "I do not
want any better fighting men than Wood' regi-
ment.X may be censured, if 1 mcnltou nnim ,
bat the oonlnea* and bravery exhibited by our Ool.,
in landing his men forward, cannot bo too highly
cotnmoivded; alao-Ool. Benlo'i, Major Huiehlion,
AoJ'i. Sherwood, Lt*. Blair and McOord, and seve-
ral others exhibited great, btavery j and with such
privates as these oitlcers have to laad Into battle,
this regiment, will yet win itself a great name, In
thl« gr«at oontaat for ind. pendente, i'lie approaoh
of night coming on, a retreat was ordered, and exe*
en led in good order. I have allien learned thattbe
losa of the enemy wns three hundred killed and
wounded; very few if any of our wounded fell Into
the hands of the enemy MaJ. W. 0. Hntchlsnn
bad hi* horse shot on the Held. During Ibe hottest
of ilia engagement the Podarais hoisted a white Bag
which, among civilised nation*, i« meant to aur-
rander. but not so with the Yankee. Tho order
wu* given in our linns to ceaae flrli g, «hi* h waa
done, and Rharacforlsilc'aa It i« with the Yankee
in orimo. after they had accomplished what ihsy
wanted, they commenci d fifing again. I mlghtaild
to this thotisai ds of alerte that aro told by the In*
habitants hero of their treatment of women and
deatruotlon of property, dD.*lng this raid, but space
will not permit me. we hove driven them to tholr
gur boata, and never will wo give up the «hip until
«¡Tory Yank la driven fh m our «oil. Tell It to the
world, publish It in every paper, ihat we are fight-
ing a so-called Chilstian people that raise a white
flair for «nine trifling advantage, and then Are again
at the approach of the belligerent party. Let tho
new oro the Ailantlo ; let. it bo heard In the Brit-
ish parliament; tell the people of K iglsod thatone
r more of ifcelr own native horn sons waa in Ibe
fight at Blair's Landing, add that we will flghl with
the South or dl® In this noble cauae.
The tr< ops here a!l mourn the loss of Ihelr noble
leader, Gen. Torn Green. His memory will ever
be chnrlahod In the hoart of every soluler and pa
trlot. HI gallant act on tho battle fields of Mans-
field, Pleasant Hill and Blalr'e Landing, will never
be fit-gotten ; and with our present g vllsnt leader,
Oeti. Bee, and the oonfidetiao the troop* have In
him. our cause must prosper, and the death of our
breve Gretn shall be avenged on every coming bai-
lie field during the war. AU quiet In front, but
