Frazier's Farm ought, indeed, to have been the last fight against McClellan, and was so designed. Jackson on the enemy's rear, Huger on his right flank, Longstreet and Hill in front of him on the Long Bridge Road, and Holmes and Magrnder pushing him on the Malvern Hill side—such were the dispositions of Gen. Lee. They constituted a perfect plan ; they should have led to the capture and destruction of McClellan; but, unfortunately, the only Generals up to time were Longstreet and Hill, and what was designed as decisive proved only a partial field, adorned, however, with a crowning exhibition of courage and devotion.
