Action at Lake Providence, 9 Jun 63

On 9 Jun. 1863 Colonel Frank A. Bartlett of the 13th Louisiana Cavalry along with the 13th Texas Cavalry (dismounted) and a section of artillery (6 pounder) attacked Federal forces at Lake Providence. Does anyone know which artillery unit(s) were in northern Louisiana at that time? The artillery section had one killed and one wounded that day. Thanks for any help. This action is mentioned in Napier Bartlett's "Military Record of Louisiana" (1875, reprinted LSU, 1964).
