Eoi iiifor-million, 1 will giro yon an account ol company Ms doings, com in slicing July Ist, 1 Slid Arriving at Cnion Mills, on the 30. h of June, a: (i o'clock I' M., we pi.died onr tents and prepared tin a coming stoim, which was visible in the dis tance, and in a short lime came upon us in all its face. Tlie rain poured down in torrents and continued until late at night, Hooding many a l«ior lefloivs' tent, who had not the forethought to ditch it. On tile morning of July Ist we . were awakened by the bugle sounding ‘‘pick up." Im mediately all were hustling and hurrying to gei ready. Shortly after “ forward” was sounded and wi.h ‘•knapsacks on our shoulders mid bayonets by our side," we pulled out on the rond leading to Hanover, distance Uj miles. About six miles from Union Mills, we crossed the Pennsylvania line, when immediately the Pennsylvania bovs gave cheer after eheer for the Old Keystone,” assisted by regiments from other states. Onr drummers commenced playing and continued doing so for many ptulssalong the road. I never seen the men in better spirits than at that time, as cheer after cheer echoed along the columns. Farmers with their families came Hocking to the roadsidc, cheering in return, and enconraging us on onr way. Especially was this the case with the ladies, whose encouragement was sometning in 1 lie slin|ie of eatables of which we were not backward in partaking. From nearly every house along the road eonid be seen the:Stars and Stripes I floating to the breeze, an nnnsnal sight for us, for | ne Y er was it seen waving in Virginia, from house or hamlet. Another cheering sight was to see the ! pleasant smiling faces of tiie hitlios ami others, 1 along our line of march, nerving onr arms with I additional strength, and many a weary soldier starred forward with renewed vigor. During om j many months campaign in Virginia, wo have re ! ccived nothing but frowns and curses from all ; sides, males and females. Passing through town ■ or Villages in Virginia, every tiling looks gloomy, deset ted and cheerless. All houses and stores art* ; closed; No kind smiles greet onr faces there. ■ No kind voice to cheer the wearied soldier on his way, or offer him a cap of cooling water; 1 Arriving at Hanover Pc., we halted two hottr to rest and cook a-.lunch. At 7'o'clock P. M. wc 1 started for Gettysburg, distant 14 miles. We marched very briskly iiinill midnight, when we slopped, in a strip of woods, three miles from Ger-' tyshurg. Being fatigued we Spread onr blankets and laid down Some made fires and cooked I supper or 12 o’clock piece. At three o’clock neM morning when the* bugle sounded teville, we arose i. cooked and eat onr breakfast, consisting of ha:d lack and coffte.. After breakfast we had inspec thm of arms’ and ammunition. By this lime daylight was fast dawning. The bugle sound ing “forward," we were soon ir lino and started off, arriving with the rest of the army Hem-Gettysburg. Kacb eorpa having minf „ j if . ferent road, w % manenverM around [. before getting into pewf,ion, when ,„ lr f f«" on the aid* of a hill non, the town.

We advanced into a strip of woods hur ill by a wheat field on the left, and on the right i, v a cleared field. Forming onr line, our left . the wlrcat field, in onr front was a swamp :C„,. SO yards wide, and woods again on the. ophite side. We had hardly formed onr line, ere ih e rebels, under Longstreet and MeLaw,came yelling like so many devils, throng It tbe t woods on our front, np to tlie edge of the swamp. I yaw that they vfere massed by regiments as it determined to tircak through out line. As soon as they ap peared in view ' w* opened a galling fire n )l0n them, they returning the compliment with a will Our men stood to thftwork bravely, never yielding an inch, and firing and loading as coollv ;l . It they were on drill. The rebels turned ant thl in disorder, leaving their wounded uni dud behind. We del not follow them, bin kept oar position for a while,'until relieved by fresh troop. We were then taken to the-rear of the wheat field . where we formed anew. The regulars of our mips | llieti advanced through the wheat field, and aguip i drove the enemy back with eonsiderafde loss on I both sides. But things were not to last lung this j way. Again that “yell” (which' Was heard so ! often at Chnnecllorville) commenced, and made 1 ns gi asp our pieces with firmer grips. “Attention" and “'forward” passed along the line, and we ad vanced across the wheat field and formed behind a stone wall. We were hardly posted behind the , wall, liefure the word was passed that we were flanked on the right of our brigade, which we sunn | found to be too true, fur tile bullet.- commenced j firing b: among us from the right. We lemaincd : in onr position until the ord-r came “about face. ; w hen we walked out in good order, contending J with die enemy both in front and rear, they hav ing nearly surrounded us. For a time it was j a hand to hand engagement, muskets were cluhlied, ! and.pistols and suiters were used in the scuffle.- Onr regiment lost pne of its colors, both color haters being wounded and bayoneted. Tbe fit i -Michigan, on the right of Ihe brigade, lost it, , colors, their Col. being killed in trying to save them Half the regiment was taken prisoners. We con tinued falling back ttnrill we came to the edge of ■he wheat field, where we halted and formed , again, under a heavy fire of the enemy in front. At this moment the Pennsylvania Keservs charged on the rebels who were pressing ns. driving iltcm luck for the third lime, leaving dead and wounded in Our bands. They did not try this jmint am more that dav, but tried the right of our line hut to-I with the same success as here. During thr lu-i engagement our brigade sufi'-red severely, [lie th'ce rigiments 10-tng ill officers killed, wounded and missing, and ">B2 enli-ted men - Our regiment lost j officers U vyuhihUm Amonu them was Major Loury, who u;n di<*: through ihe head while cheering us on. \V«- :ilsvhnd2l men killed, 124 wounded, and 7' mining.

The wheat field above named presented a horrible spectacle. The ground " i eovered with dead and wounded. The inonie of the '.rounded were dreadful to hear. Near!' all Of them were taken back to hospitals that were inside onr lines. Next morning. Friday 3d, t he firing was continued all along the line, but the heavy firing was op the right of onr line, near Cemetery Hill. Alkuu 10 o'clock in the nnnnivg very heavy cannonading commenced on both sides, the most tevifie I have p er seen. There wa s s continual biasing and bnzzing for an bom or tw.i I did not learn the extent of the damage June by this cannonading, We onr breastworks all day (Fridiv 3) also Saturday 4th, the enemy making no a leaner on thr line in front of ns. Con.inuons skirmishing was kept up all day by oar sharp shooters. Somitimss when snir men would make it too hot for them they would send a shell at them, but never done an; harm. On the evening of the -fill, the enemy n treated,. followed closely by onr forces. Onr corps moved out of their entrenchments at 5 o'clock E M.‘on Sunday the sth, taking the pike leading hrough Emmettsbnrg, From this time " v ■ marched continually day after day, in all kinds ol weather. On the Bth we crossed the Gotovina mountain, on -the 9th South mountain and on the 12th we cimein contact with the enemies pickets near Williamsport. Skirmishing was kept ap between onr , pickets until the 14th, when the enemies pickets falling back to their breast works, which they had erected to hold ns in cheek, while they forded the river. These woiks wvic about a mile from the river. We also dm.'* up breast works hi ease they should advance m torco on us, and every evening as a new picket was posted it was advanced. Then a new line at works were erected. From deserters taken the I4th we learned that the enemy were crossing he river. A division from each corps was sen. forward and found the minor correct. They find ill crossed hut about 500 who were taken I" 1 '" tiers; The whole army that night eam|icd olong the river.
