The magnificent lines moment before wavered, then still, and then faded away like beneath a Summer's sun. The was ended, and but few, if any, lived to fa turn. The field where the enemy had advanced was a perfect slaughter- pen, indeed. The dead and wounded lay in all directions, and not one of all the men who had advanced got again. It was a noble charge, an the noble and brave Lieutenant commanded the section alone In the fle'id, and who gave up bis life to duty, was the credit of winning the battle due. The enemy lost about 1,000 men In killed, wounded and pri»- oners. Our loss was eight and sixteen wounded. A a Ambush of Artillery. We were driven back at Seven Pines the first day. but on the second we gave them a little **Hail Columbia," and drove ̂ them back in return about half a mile froiu where our outside line w&s established on the first day. It ygp. a most terrible fl^lit. I had never seftn anything like it, and as I have uever seen an account of a rebel charge made that day* I will undertake to briefly describe It. On a wooded eminence a short distance below where our first line had been established two or three batteries of artillery were stationed by Helntzelman, One section of two pieces was drawn out from the woods and placed in the clear oorn field be­ yond. It was r ither a dangerous posi­ tion tor a battery to be in without support. The section had scarcely un- limbered when from the woods In their front there debouched four lines of Confederates (Chetliam's brigade) who, in regimental front and four lines deep, came pourhig down upon tbe de­ voted sectiou. "Fire with canister!" commanded the weak little voice of the young Lieutenant whooominandcd the section, and the Confederates seemed to laugh at the two little six- pounders opposing them. "Double- shot with canister!" said the command­ er of the masked guns in the woods, and still the enemy oame on and on, as it on parade. Not a musket was fired and the section kept booming away with terrible rapidity. I had thought that the Lieuteuant and bis sectiou would turn taU to the foe. He did not but stood there and worked his guns with the coolness of a brave man. All at once, with a yell, the enemy started on a double-quick, -snd in a moment more the section was captured and the Lieutenant was a mangled corpse Now oame the most terrible carnage I had ever seen. The capturo of the sec­ tion had evideutly greatly encouraged the foe, and his Hoes swept up and up the hill until within about a hundred yards of the Uniou cannon. It was magnificent sight. The Hues had not broken y«t, but kept onward as march iug for review. "Fire!" rang out from the woods, and at least a dozen | cannon belched forth their storm of death. I can ?ee it even now.

In order that the work of this otfioe, may be brought into immediate prac* ileal relation to the largest possible number of those for whose benefit it Is specially Intended, via: those whose crops are exposed to insect Injuries, the undersigned cordially and earnest­ ly Invites direct correspondence from agriculturalists and horticulturists throughout the State. All iuquiries respecting Injurious In­ sects, and the methods of limiting or preventing their injuries, will be an­ swered as promptly as the circumstan­ ces of the case and the resouroes of the office will permit; but all such enqui­ ries should be accompanied, if at all possible, by speclaaens of the insects themselves. These should be usually killed lu alcohol, packed in moist cot­ ton in a small box. and sent by mail, prepaid at the rate of ono cent an ounce. Caterpillars, grubs, and the like, may be sent alive, iu a tight tin box, with enough of their proper food to last until their arrival, When the facts developed by such correspondence are of general Interest and value, an abstract of them will be sent to the local papers of the vicinity of the inquirer, for publication, and to such agricultural papers of the State as wish them; aud if the circumstan­ ces seem to call for it, the State Euto mologist. or some competent assistant will, if possible, visit the locality, for an investigation on the spot.
