captured 8 horses, 6 Spencer carbines, and 6 prisoners from the infantry. Shall attack to-day well round the enemy's left. If I had another brigade of cavalry the enemy should not have an ear of corn outside of their infantry lines.

Very truly, your obedient servant,

EDWARD HATCH,

Brigadier-General.
