quently killed at Harper's Ferry .* On Thursday, the 13th of June, the Brigade moved from Chambersburg on the road to Greencastle, and encamped near the Rhode Island command of Governor Sprague, and the regiment of Colonel Burnside.


Advancing to the Potomac, on Sunday, the 16th of June, Miles' Brigade crossed the river, the Ninth holding the right of the column, and encamped about three miles from the stream, on the road from Williamsport to Martins- burg. The ferry at Williamsport had been destroyed by the rebels, and the troops were obliged to wade, the water reaching to the arm pits of the smaller men of the command. On the 17th of June, Colorel Miles, with his detach- ments of the Second, Third, and Eighth regiments of U. S. infantry, was ordered to Washington. He accordingly turned over the command of the balance of the Brigade to Colonel Longnecker, the ranking officer, and ordered him to re- turn to Williamsport with the three volunteer regiments, and report in person to the commanding General of the Division, Major General Cadwalader. Re- crossing the river, the Brigade encamped near the ford, which it was com- manded to hold. In this camp the regiment remained, drilling, performing picket duty, and experiencing the varied alarms incident to an inexperienced soldiery, until July 1st, when the whole army, in and about Williamsport, began to move across the river, in the direction of Martinsburg. The enemy under Jackson having been driven back in the engagement at Falling Waters, the Ninth encamped on the following night on a portion of the battle ground. Advancing on the following day to Martinsburg, it went into camp, where it remained till the 15th of July, when the 4th Brigade moved out on the Winchester pike, to Bunker Hill.


As early as the 8th of July, a general forward movement had been decided on by the commanding General, with the design of giving battle to the enemy concentrated at Winchester and Bunker Hill, and the order had been issued for the army to move in two columns, led by the Brigades of Thomas and Stone. But before the movement had commenced, General Patterson was induced to hold a conference with his principal officers, at which the opposition t to an at-

¡ MINUTES OF COUNCIL OF WAR, HELD JULY 9, 1861, AT MARTINSBURG, VIRGINIA .- Captain Simpson, Topographical Engineers. The difficulty of our present position arises from the great facility the enemy has to concentrate troops at Winchester from Manassas Junction. By the railroad, twelve thousand men could be sent there in a day, and again sent back to Ma- nassas. Our forces should combine with the forces at Washington.


Captain Newton, Engineers. Our present positionis a very exposed one. General Johnston can keep us where we are as long as he pleases, and at any time make a demonstration on our rear. Our whole line is a false one. We have no business here, except for the purpose of making a demonstration. He threatens us now. We should be in a position to threaten him. We should go to Charlestown, Harper's Ferry, Shepherdstown, and flank him.


Colonel Stone. It is mainly a question for the staff. Our enemy has great facility of move- ment, and to extend our line would be accompanied with great danger. Johnston should be threatened from somo other point. * * *

Colonel George HI. Thomas, approves of a flank movement to Charlestown.

NINTH REGIMENT,


tack was so decided that the order for the advance was countermanded. The means of transporting supplies were inadequate, and the difficulty of guard- ing the line was increasing with every day's advance. The tenacity with which the enemy held his position at Winchester, and fortified himself against all approaches from Bunker Hill, indicated a confidence in his ability to success- fully hold it. In an entrenched camp, miles in extent, and well provided with artillery and cavalry, the rebel leader, with every advantage in his favor, was evidently willing to give battle. Subsequent experience has abundantly shown the hazard of attacking fortified positions with even superior forces. A commu- nication,* forwarded from the War Department three days later, showed that the intentions of the enemy were correctly interpreted by this Council of War.


On the 17th of July, Colonel Longnecker's Brigade moved from Bunker Hill towards Charlestown, and encamped that evening in the vicinity of the town. Remaining here until the 21st, it moved to Harper's Ferry, where it crossed the Potomac, fording the river near the ruins of the National armory, and en- camped about a mile back on the Maryland side. On the 22d of July the Ninth regiment, Colonel Longnecker, and the Thirteenth, Colonel Rowley, were ordered to march the same day for Hagerstown, and thence by rail to Harrisburg, the period of enlistment having expired. Arriving at Harrisburg on the 24th, the men were paid, and mustered out of service. This regiment was well drilled, and under excellent discipline, and had opportunity offered, would doubtless have shown good soldierly qualities in battle. The health of the men through- out the term of service was good, no serious sickness prevailing, and the regi- inent suffered no loss by death or desertion.


*WAR DEPARTMENT, Washington, July 11, 1861.


Major General PATTERSON,


Martinsburg, Virginia:


The author of the following is known, and he believes it authentic :


WASHINGTON, July 9, 1861.


The plan of operations of the Secession army in Virginia contemplates the reverse of the proceedings and movements announced in the "Express" of yesterday and Saturday. A .sche- dule that has come to light, meditates a stand, and an engagement by Johnston, when he shall have drawn Patterson sufficiently far back from the river to render impossible his retreat across it on being vanquished, and an advance then, by Johnston and Wise conjointly upon M'Clel- lan, and, after the conquest of him, a march in this direction, to unite in one attack upon the Federal forces across the Potomac, with the army under Beauregard at Manassas Junction, and the wing of that army, the South Carolina regiments chiefly, now nine (9) miles from Alexan- dria. Success in each of these three several movements is anticipated, and thereby not only the possession of the Capital is thought to be assured, but an advance of the Federal troops upon Richmond prevented. * * * Real retreats, which have been anticipated, it will be seen, are, by this plan, altogether ignored. According to it, fighting and conquest are the orders.
