" They came on," said a Northern account, re- ferring to the Confederates, " like demons emerging from the earth." With grim and terrible energy, our men came up within good range of the enemy's columns ; they take his fire without a halt ; a momentary confusion ensues as the leaden showers are poured into our ranks; but the next moment the bugles sound the order to our phalanxes, and instantly the huge mass of Confederates is hurled against the enemy's left wing. The divisions of Reno and Sche...nck — the choicest veterans of the Federal army are swept away. Setting up a yell of tri- umph, our men push over the piles of their own dead and the corpses of many a Federal, using the bayonet at close quarters with the enemy. The rout of the enemy was complete. It had been a task of almost superhuman labor to drive the enemy from his strong points, defended as they were by the best artillery and infantry in the Federal army, but in less than four hours from the commencement of the battle our indomitable energy had accomplished every thing.
