. Redeeming the republic : the third period of the war of the rebellion, in the year 1864 . s, and the Uniontroops held the ground. Going down now to the Army of the Tennessee, we find General Os-terhaus, with a division of Logans corps, on the road which leads west fromE-esaca to Sugar Valley post-office. The Confederate troops at this pointwere west of Camp Creek. There was a bridge across the creek, whichthey held. There were thick woods along the valley, and the Confederateskirmishers were sheltering themselves behind the trees. The TwelfthMissouri, of Osterhauss command, was on the skirmish line, and the sol-diers gained the rear of the Confederates, who abandoned the west bankand fled across the bridge. General Logan ordered Gen. Giles A. Smithand Gen. C. E.. Woods, with their brigades, supported by Veatchs divis-ion, to advance.

While the cannon were thundering at Resaca, General Sherman wasexecuting another important move. He had no intention of attackingJohnston behind, his breastworks, but hoped to gain his rear, intercepthis line of communication with Atlanta, and compel him to fight a bat-tle in. the open field. The course of the Oostenaula is south-west. Therailroad runs nearly sout
