ALD publifhefl the history of the
battle of Stephennon.'s Depot:
Winchkstkk, Va., July X'. 1VC1.
Kditok Gazbttk: Pen nr. me,
through your columns, to give an
account of the late battle at Steph
enson's depot. This depot is three
miles from Winchester, .nituuted
near the pike leading from thai
place to Martinsburg. In this pike,
and on either side of it for hnH
a mile, raged the buttle of the 20t 1 1
f July. The rebel forces were
commanded by Major Genera'
Ramseur, und consisted of one
division of three brigades, about
three thousand in number, as the
advance, and one brigade of a thon
sand men in reserve. These were
all infantry. Hesidea these there
were about fifteen hundred cavalry
to protect cither flank, and tin
whole accompanied by a battery ol
feur twelve pound brass howitzers.
The rebels fought Btrictly upon the
defensive, aim thereforehad a choice
position. Opposed to this force,
and about to assail it, was the Sec
ond Brigade of the Second Division
of the Army of West Virginia, re
cently from Lynchburg, and more
recently from the Kanawha Valley,
very much reduced in numbers by
4iard fighting, and much more so
by fatiguing marches and sickness.
To assist in this perilous enterprise
was a considerable number of cav
alry, but greatly inferior to thai
with the rebels. The only thing in
which we greatly excelled the
rrbels was artillery, we having
twelve p'eces, while they had but
four. This in the morningrendered
us valuable assistance in silencing
the rebel guns, and thereby permit
tiny; us .to advance through
the open fields upon their position.
But in the afternoon, when the real
battle of the day took place, our
artillery could not be made bo ef
fecllve w'thout endangering the
li ,'cs of cur own men; indeed, it was
8'!enc?d during a considerable
pprt of the engagement; yet
whenever it could be brought to
bear upon the enemy the opportun
ity was qulckl seized, and those
huge monsters of death went whiz
fcing through the air, inspiring a
w'tiolr-some fetr ia the hcaria of the
enemy, bu nting oftentimeB pmid
their ranks, Bpreading death and
destruction all around, and
bespeaking the skill of
our artillerists, an well as
heightening the .'courage of
our men. While we were moving
at a distance through the fields
towards the enemy's position, the
roar of our own cannon, as it
he raided our approach, sounded
like sweet music to our ears, and
was no doubt very effective. Hut
when we rushed to the assault, and
the enemy tarried to abide the
onset when the real encounter
took place-when the "combat
deepened," and the brave rushed
down to the "Harvest of Death," to
dispute for the possession of the
field, in a hand to hand conflict, the
artillery ceased to fire, the cavalry
on either flank did little or nothing,
while the "tug of war," in all its
fury, fell upon the devoted men of
that little brigade. Their musketry
met the musketry and artillery of
the rebels, and notwithstanding all
the disadvantages, gained a most
complete victory. On the morning
of the 20th we arrived within two
miles of the battlefield at 11 o'clock,
While a reconnoissance was being
made, and a brisk skirmish was
being kept up, in front, the soldiers
partook of the midday meal, very
many of them for the last time, that
they might with more zeal and
energy wrest the victory from an
unwilling foe, or offer up all of life
to their country's cause. Immedi
ately aftct this we advanced in line
of battle. It seems that by this
time the rebels were fully aware of
our approach in force, and having
ascertained as much about us as
they could from scouts and skirm
ishers, they withdrew these and
permitted us to approach very close
before they opened upon us. This
was th strategy they used, and
having a superior force they
thought doubtless by allowing us
to come within short range, and
then by an impetuous charge of
overwhelming numbers, to utterly
annihilate our. little brigade. We
advanced as unconcerned as
if there were no rebels between us
and Winchester. The rebels had
posted themselves upon a gentle
eminence, and in rather a thick
forest extending for a quarter of a
mile on either side of the pike
lengthwise, and half a mile lat
terly. In the front of their position
on the meadows on either side of
M e pike stretched away to the dis
tance of a mile and a half, with no
obstruction except in a single in
stance, where a forest of four or
five acres upon the left flank of the
enemy, served to protect our cav
alry in the rst ngagement. Oth
erwise than this, the artillery com
manded the whole plain, which was
uetrly level, and afforded the
best possible position for a defen
sive engagement. If we would gain
a victory here it must be done
by hard lighting. We must walk
up like brave men, amid the angry
shower of grape that will be hurled
against us, meet the leaden missiles
of death Hung from unerring mus
kets, and perhaps with the bayonet,
precipitate ourselves upon the en
t v. ched behind rot k . and logs, with
ater. iOle inuit'tus, crying "victory
or death," ere they will yield the
palm to inferior numbers. At li
in., our advance b ing within uboi.i
li.ilt a mile of the enemy's position,
iiic) at -1 i o ) upon us with four
pieces of artillery. ' It was in soui"
measure i surprise, not thiit we
were not in bailie array, or that we
iid not soon expect to meet them,
or that we were thrown olf our
guard, or that in tiny way we neg
lected to be vigilant, but it was the
lirst intimation we hail ot the pres
ence of artillery, "ihe cannons
opening roar always surprises, and
as that first shell broke the stillness
of the march, and burst immediately
in our ranks, we beenme sensibly
aroused to a realization of the fact
that the battle was about to begin.
Never was more life and animniinn
i. MiiS Tested in so short a space. All
.i'e appearances of a complete
iute were exhibited, but it was
only in appearaiue. The cavarly
lashed oil to the right and left, unJ
look a position in perfect order, the
infantry were already in line, and
the road was soon cleared of that
long line of artillery A few rapid
evolutions and it was ready. to reply
10 the unfriendly welcome of the
rebels. The unnecessary guns and
C.i ssons, with their six horses at
tached, went Hying down through
ihe Held to a place of safety, an, I a
miscellaneous crowd of non-combatants
went hurrying with "hot
haste" to a more secure retreat.
The music of our own artillery was
soon heard, and never did it sound
sweeter to the weary soldier than
then. It began with u single gun,
and scarcely a iniuut had elapsed
ere it was a continuous roar, and
ten were not gone when the rebel
guns were silenced, lu the mean
time the inffiitryhad gone forward,
and were resting behind a stone
wall. It was a cessation ol hostili
tiesit was the ltdl that succeeds
the first dash of the storm; the
heavens are gathering a darker
hue; the storm-god frowns, and
the earth will only be satisfied
when it is moistened with a copi
ous shower of the blood of the
brave. We have felt the premoni
tory symptoms of the battle; the
strife is sure to follow. Hloody
Mars will soon stride in triumph
over the fields and smile with
demoniac delight as he listens to
the "din of battle," and beholds
the contestants covered with
human nore- General Averill
reconnoiters the position, and tells
Colonel Duval that he sees no
reason why we should , not
advance. The Colodel is
equally explicit. I see no reason
why we may not take supper in
Winchester. The . command to
move onward Is given, aud all move
forward. It is a single line of
courageous men, with no supports.
If that line is broken, or if by any
accident It gives back, defeat and
ruin is the consequence. It is
hazardous to do thus a fearful un
dertaking to charge upon such a
position, occupied by three times
our numbers. It is well that we
have tried troops there, sol liers that
have listened to the roar of the
cannon, aud walked up un
daunted to the entrench
ments of the enemy, while
their comrades fell fast around
them. The Ninth Virginia and the
Ninty-first Ohio, are to carry the
enemy's center. They have fought
on bloody fields and naught but
success has hitherto crowned their
etferts; arid ere they will yeild the
plain of victory to rebels, or loose
the prestige so dearly bought on
otner liclds of strife, the held shall
be crimsoned with the life tide of
many a brave heart. Victory,
aespite the untoward circum
stances, shall surelv be ours. Th?
rebel artillery had been silent bo
long, that many no doubt thought
it totally disabled or taken from the
field, but we soon learned to our
cost that it was there to do fearful
work. As I scanned the field for
the omens of success, I could see
naughtbutBignsof defeat. At this
moment the infantry, within fifty
yards oi tne enemy, laid down in
the grass to load. The artifice was
Bticcssstul; it drew the lire of the
enemy, who invariably over shot
our men. ai tins movement our
cavalry on either flank were driven
back, and all seemed lot-t, but an
enfilading lire from the Thirty
fourth on our left Hank, and the
Fourteenth Virginia on the right
checked the impetuous charge of
the rebels, and drove them back
finally with great slaughter. Our
entire line then rose and advanced,
and the battle raged with increased
fury. The musketry was terrible.
The artillery hurled its shower of
grape into our ranks, mowiugdown
our brave men ns falls the gross be-
lore tne scytne; and above it a II
you can hear the shout of the ad
vancing column, and the yell of
defiiance from the woods. Veterans
were here by accident to see the
fight. They sneak of it n
the most brilliant charge
of the war. I had seen the Ninety-
first Ohio and the Ninth Virginia
chargf side by side at the battle of
Cloyd Mountain I had seen them
dash in triumph upon the rebels
lines nt Lynchburg, but their pres
ent charge far surpassed all their1
other achievements, a Nothing
could withstand their impetus and
determination. The charge was so
ouick, and the onset so sudden,
that some of the rebels were
clubbed over the head with
the butt of the musket, ere they
could rite from their hiding places;
many were taken prisoners; many
threw away their guns and took to
fight. The four brass field pieces
were captured, two by the Ninety
first Ohio, and two by the Ninth
Virginia, together with the hones
attached to the caissons. The de
feat was complete. They fled
through the woods pursued by our
forces, and in the open fields be
yond, large numbers were killed
and wounded. Hie chase was
stayed, and when night gathered
around us, it was not unwelcomed
to loose weary soldiers who had
stood "the burden and the heat of
the day." We lay down to rest that
night proud of the achievements
of the little brigade, and realizing;
that "Ihe battle is not to the Btronif
alone, but to the viligant, the active,
the brave. Yours Truly,
