Sciutllur i.ki Officer tares, A to THE BATTLE OF CHICKAMAUGA. Confederate Soldier Write icriptioa of Terrible Easagemsnt.

How the Troops In the Fiercely Fouzil Contest Xjharged Oyer the of Their Dead and Dying Comrades. A former Confederate soldier, who served under r.ragg during the invasion of Kentucky and the retreat to Teunessec, writes lu the Williamson County Appeal as follows: Kentucky had been given up; now Ten- nessse bad to le- abandoned. To leave borne in the hands of fneuds and go to battle was hard indeed, but ue knew our homes were fast falling into the hamls of our ci.o- mlos. Tlie fonfederate CJirsa now seemed us gone. The last vostjjo of hul was fast fading away especially to We vera falling back from our ualivo land.

What eh had we to tight lor! We were fast marching to tleuls unknown to us. The shadow of uncertainty and final defeat seemed pictured in every countenance. We were fast traveling from tlie height of expectation into the depths ot despair, as we thought. Our ranks were fast thinning, wilhout hope of recruiting. The truest hearts were giving away.

The -bravest were waxing fainv. Hopes were sickening, energy dying. But on wo went, leaving all behind us. The broad Tenuesee river soon spread out before us, pontoons were stretched across, over we weut, and the liver wnuui the dividing line a large army and a broad river between us aud home. We soon began to fortify Chattanooga, picks, axes and spattus wore the principal weapons of warfare.

there woukl not have been a man of the First Tennessee regiment left to tell tlie tale. It relieved us of the dilemma we were hi and gave the enemy such a shock they never rallied agiin that day. We again and discovered that they were falling bark. This ended the fighting of that day. and was the beginning of tho battle of hickamamra.

Tho army slept in line of battle that night, and tlie ue.t day was tiie great day of tlie batllo ol Chickainaiiga. 1 Two powerful armies were facing each other. and we all knew thai the next day would prove a glorious victory or a dctcat. We felt that we had secured a decided advantage in the evening before. We could bear the enemy all night long moving ami lakiug position.

Every tiling on our sulo was life and animation. A bold and careless look as they passed their jokes around the camp-tire bespoke the free aud daring character of our men. They awoke on the next morning with the samo merry joke as of the night be tore, and it was plainly pictured 011 every face that tiie cumiug day would lie a day ot victory to them. Sunday morning, September 1, dawned on us as bright and beautiful as nature could make iu Everything hid fair for a great victory- The country was unbroken, and looked like it had just been created and had never been dbturbed by tho hand of man. Our boys awoke from their slumbers as fresh as the lovely morning, shook ti0 dew from their cartridge-boxes, wiped their guns, and everybody announced ready, had the sun asceuded above tiie horizon before the battle began.

The tiring commenced on tlie lcit, and we all knew that was a signal to prime and prepare to meet toe eueuiy. Uen. Polk's corps had done tho principal part of the fighting the evening before, and were now held iu reserve. the whole line was one blaze of fire as far as the eye could see, and for miles and miles iho iL big roared and Uie battle raged. So king was the line ot buttle that tho firing on tho extreme HI sounded like distant Citirxicr rviaring.

For hours the two lines stood face to face with scarcely a moment's Intermission of heavy firing. It was a ha d. rough and tumble tight. At last Cdi. Polk came galloping up to Uen.

Cheatham, and In a pleasant bine commandod doners', mors your command -and attack at. once." Almost as quick as the word was spoken the wi'inle ot Cheatham's division beian to march tn a solid line. Tho enemy was tiring from behind logs aud trees and out of bushes, and was doing some deadly work. We wa on tho extrcmo right of tho whole command. A portion of Gca.

Forrest's cavalry supported our right. Siowly add deliberately we marched on Inward the enemy wik'iout a lseak in the lin. save when one of our mn would fill wounded or killed and then the st would be Immediately filled. Longstreet's corps began to drive the.n back Immediately on our left. Cheatham, who ti.is time was In front, now shouted Charge bnem and give them beU den.

The whole wrhl seemed vibrate end ring In a bvrlbtn mind. I took but a few sters to put us on top of their temporarv breastworks, v.tl there befo'ss lis. and In she-t hooting nnw. we saw mass of blue a line of Keilfl ls wMrh looked Hfce it four rtoen. uch a solid line we had never met.

This is no Imaginary picture, but a small part of iho scenes thai the battllii-id presented that night. All night long, that cold September nlgbt, the groans and dying shrieks were heard through tho darkness. The night was stieut raring for the wounded the dead took care ol themselves. They were never buried. For years afterward the battleground of old Chirkarnauga shone like bright moon light, even on the darkest nights.

The bones resembled piles of phosphorous or lox-ttre mat lighted the dark woods. The bailie was over. The next day we took our position on Missionary Ridge, and for two mouths looked over into Chattanooga at the enemy recruiting and rebuikllng their broken army.
