It seems absolutely certain that had Long- 12 1 66 GENERAL LEE. Street followed Stuart's march, Jackson Longstreet's, and the remainder of the army followed them, on July 2d, these heights could have been occupied by Lee's army and McClellan's command attacked and destroyed. The guns of the gunboats had to be so greatly elevated to fire over the banks of the river that the projectiles passed over the heights, so that the Southern army would not be much exposed to that fire, while a plung- ing f...ire from Lee*s batteries on the Federal troops in the plains below must have resulted most disastrously.* McClellan, in a dispatch to Mr. Lincoln on the 4th, two days afterward, says : " We now occupy Evelington Heights, about two miles from the James, a plain extend- ing from there to the river. Our front is about three miles long ; these heights command our whole position, and must be maintained." The total losses to the Army of the Potomac in these seven days of conflict are put down at fifteen thousand eight hundred and forty- nine, and the list, of casualties in the Army of Northern Virginia in the fights before Richmond, commencing June 2 2d and ending July i, 1862, is placed at sixteen thousand seven hundred and eighty-two.
