TUESDAY MORNING. OCTOBER 6.
THE B ITTLE FIELD OF CHICAKAUOA.
i sx i>W3 AFrKit 'fieri battlk.
Wc Die Hold of the "refit batjlo oil
yesterday, commencing on tho extreme left,
crossing ntid rcerossiDtj; over tho entire
ground. Tho pcones wo witnessed arc sel
dom exhibited on earth' wc will try to de
scribe some of th.Tti:
Wc entered the Hold at the Red House,
where a few dead horses only attest tho ovi-
dene i oi a severe skirmbh. The woods on
t-h3 outskirts of tho llirld did not exhibit
much evidenc3 of battlo until we reached
the steam saw mill on the road leading (rom
RlnggoKl, by way of Heed’s bridge, toChat-
lauoogq. At this point several dead horses
arc decaying and producing a meat loul
stench. Several graves are visible. In an
outhouse, stretched upon a litter, the dead
body ot a Yankee is exposed, and a moat
offensive stink oxhales from tho carcass.—
Along tho road we saw numerous dead hor-
SC3 and Yankee bodies. All tlirohgh tho
woods there wero evidences of sharp skir
mishing where little artillery firing had been
m iJc. To tho right of tho road, about a
mile, and close to tho old Savannah road,
there arc some old fields, in which batteries
were placed on the highest points. Our for
ces charged up these small hoights, and left
the evidences of their valor on the field, not
alono in thtir own tattered garments and
equipment?, and the graves of our dead, but
alio in a large number of dead and stinking
Yankees. Here wo met n burial party who
wore really sick from their exposure to the
unwholesome stench. Bohind this hill we
mot the first breastworks. They are made
of logs and stones, and situated to command
tho most probable liuo oil attack. Tho debne
of the c inflict shows how savagely it was
contested. .
Along the Cuattanbog* and Lafayette
road, somewhat to the left of Cloud’s farm,
the signs of desperate strife begin to indicate
the battlefield. The country is well cleared
l rom the lowlands up the slopes of the bro
ken ramre of hills, and some four or five
hu ms are seen in llie clearing, Iu the edge
of the wood?, on the crest of the hills, the
enemy wero posted with tremendous battet
lies, lhei r position being about a mile long,
and bristling with cannon fronting two ways.
The lorn, pulverized earth, and the mown
weeds ami corn in the path ot tlieir terrible
sweeping lire, evince the fierceness of the
conflict. There is ft very iarge com field
and field of sedge on iho slope, aud it was
over this exposed, clear, open place, with a
ioace t .ud gulley intervening, that our men
charged steadily and successfully. A huu
drod dead horses, broken caissons, dismoun
ted cannO'-L broken ammunition,torn elothca
broken knapsacks, empty haversacks, bullo,
t >ra canteen?, broken gunstoeks, hundreds
of lorn shoes and hats, bloody bayonets
broken sabre scabbards, torn cartridge box-
e<, dead Yankees in piles of four, five and a
dozen; a cord of cannon rammers, ropes
torn harness, numerous graves—everything
which is ever seen upon a fiercely contested
and bloody field of battle. All over these
1300 acres of open land the conflict raged
with a fierceness of which the evidence will
long be apparent. Ojnr forces carried the
whole line of hills and the enemy’s defence-
Numerous wagon ways for their retreating
batteries arc seen, but it is evident they fell
iato our h.andi, for tue paths e.id at short
distances iu the wooils, am} only a few bat
tery paths are scsn^oJi the rocky slop?, over
whoso'surface down into a ravine and along
the slop? of the Uilis behind, the Yankee
dead arc su'd putrifyiug in the light of a
bright September sun.
Away fur to th? leit ot the opsaing the
graves of our rixsn bucom? numeroas. Ten-
nesiee has her regiments markod on many,
oh! it makes sne sorrow in my heart for my
glorious friends and companions who are
placed there. A thousand Yankee dead,
seal? buried, many still lying in their bright
blue uniforms, whcie our rebel bullets over-
ook them.
Going northward to the left of the road
way and along the brow oi the hill, where
the tremendous battery naddono such fearful
execution, we seo where the enemy’s right
was turned towards his .centre and through
tho defiles And ravines, the fighting must
have been awful. In one little dell at the
head of a Email ravine and directly opposite
the old homo used by the Yankees as hos
pital, situated at the upper end of the open
ing, there arejx iarge number of our dead.—
South Carolina here has .representatives from
several of her noble ’regiments. A number
of graves of Mississippians are marked at va
rious points in this vicinity. _ Tho place is
o^NAgro^t most be ! eas ^i r found by noticing theAceurai e poiuts
I am giving. On both sides of 1 lie ravine
are evidences of the’terrible "conflict which
I'Ggcd. This was liio front of the enemy’s
centre. Hundreds of dead Yankees attest
the close character of the combat and the
invincib.e efforts of our troops. Back of
this point i3 the highest bill, on which the
Yankee centre was^intrenched on all sides.
They had a large number Of guns in battery
on the brow of tho hill, and down its slope
they showercdjthc,storm of leaden and iron
hall which cut lanes through the woods as
though a tornado had passed over it. Trees
two lect thick aro cut off; limbs are hanging
ia all directions; tons of metal—balls, bombs,
grape and sings—arc lying thick over the
whole wooded surlaeo. Thoiftands of balls
have scarred every tree, shrub and bush;
stones.are tom into fragments, over nearly
a mile in length in front of tho battery, and
all round it within range, every foot of the
ground has been tom and ploughed with
shot mad shell. On the right hand northern
slope of the hill a little farm was cleared and
near tho crest a thick peach orchard once
stood; bohind this is a log house, the house
of the proprietor, Mr. Snodgrass. This Snod
grass’ hill was the proper centre of the ene
my’s line. At the foot of the hill fronting
toward the Chattanooga road thero is a deed
well, and to the right of this are three rows
of breastworks made of rails, logs aud stones.
The enemy used the house as. hospital.—
Around it are the marks of war’s destruction.
Death, in his most horrible,^mangling ard
disfiguring shape, was thereon Sunday,and
wagon loads of buried arms and legs and
dead attest the fury and carnage of the do-
mon of destruction. The hospital itself was
untouched; its flag was respected by our
loie?s on the centre and right. Tho centre
was charged several tunes. Finally, Breck
inridge’s troops assaulted aeross’tUc point
where the well i3 seen, ovcr^ thalworks, up
tho hill, through the orchard and amongst
the trees, to the top ot tho hill, aud here.are
tho evidences of thoir valor. Right where
their noble and desperate courage, carried
them they have erected a monument. It is
composed of Kentucky’s dead. Over the
spot the roar of a hundred cannon dea'ened
the senses. The thin, pulverized earth and
the beaten rotod spots show the de^air
and obstinacy of thc.Yankee'cannonicrs. It
was from this point the Yankeo centre broke
and retreated in consternation.and panic,
throwing away 4 their guns, accoutrements—
everything which might impede Their pro
gress and retreat. „ Our troops did not pursue
from this point until.Monday, fronTwhat we
could learn.
The evidence* of their disorder and re
treat is shown in the beaten .woods. It has
tlio appearance for miles os though thous
ands and thousands of cattle and horses had
stampeded. Along its coarse thousands of
guns and equipments were found. Our
gleaning parties and the visitors have cleaned
tho ground so that not an article of value or
use can now be found. It is very much so,
however, over the whole field. From this
hill we look down over a corn field and
through tho woods whero our right wing
came on like a hurricane. In the field there
is a large number of dead Yankees, whose
black and swollen bodies glistening in the
sunlight, are not cither pleasant to the eyes,
nor is the odor they omit a delightful per
fume, except as an incense to our gratified
soul that they are destroyed. They arc cur
mortal enemies, that is reason enough for
our want of charity.
From this point we travelled Northeast
and East towards Ringgold and Graysvillc.
Passing over the flat or slightly rolling ground
between Snodgrass’ home and Kelly’s farm,
the woods is literally torn into shreds.—
Horses and dead Yankees are lying promis
cuously about. The conflict all along the
road, passing by Kelly’s house and a half
mile on either side, is moro terrible in ap
pearance than any other part of tho field.—
The woods are thick and the land nearly
level, which explains the matter, every shot
on such ground showing more plainly than
on open ground. We found Mr. Kelly pack
ing up his household goods. Numerous
dead Yankees and horses are scattered about
his house. One man had a leg amputated
and apparently died under the operation.—
The leg was thrown across his body and
there he lay, a most disgusting, yet extraor
dinary sight. Passing up the wood toward
Chattanooga, the evidences of the fight pre
sent horrors upon horrors. The ground is
nearly level, and the road very broad, with
occasionally a field. As far as the eye can
see on cither side, and at some places a mile
in width, the conflict was close, almost hand
to hand. All the destruction which can be
imagined as attending the terrible carnage
of a battlefield, is here in all Us horror.—
The dust is thicker than wc ever saw it anj
where, and over all tho woods for mile> in
length and width, there is cast a mantle of
impalpable dast which makes the gray for
est moro sad and melancholy in the loDg
slanting rays of the setting sun. We leave
the Chattanooga road and turnjto'lhe right.
An open, narrow space in the woods, which
seems to have beenicutj cut for an old road,
and may have been made a posturo field,
attracts our attention. We ride along tbe ave
nue, and on'every side, thickly'strewn are
tho marks of the sharpshooters skill, and the
terrible effects of shell and grape from masked
battery. The doss was not.alone, however,
with u?, but the foo met his_fatc. lie has
left the dread ul evidences in many dead
bodies. In the woods near the upper end of
this opening, wc saw one of the blue habi
ted dead, sitting with his back against a lo.?.
his arms’on lxisjtnecs, andjbis. lingers dove
tailed together. Apparently he had set down
deliberately, to die. The worms were feast
ing on him. His jaw banging down; his
black and glistening .body, which had swol
len until it burnt oft" his clothing, was one ok
the most horrible and disagreeable sights we
ever witnessed. Close by, another had
craw led along a log, and placing his back
against a bush, and resting his head on his
hand, the elbow bent, the body in a reclining
position, he had pulled his cap over his eyes
and given up his sprit from the battlefield. We
crossed Kelley’s farm, passing from the house
back, acrOiS the field. A scries of breast:
works ranged iu line on various parts oi' the
field, but they seem to have been of but little
service. At the back part oft the field,
sweeping eastward and south of east, was a
large and destructive battery. The worn
places where each gun was placed indicate
that ten or more guns were in battcry tlnjre.
The dead.borses and $• Yankees'lying about
tell how veugeiul .the assault was and how
successful. But from the hill where this
battery cast its storm and rain of shot, and
shell, and canister, nnd grape, the evidences
of a terrific fire are moro apparent here than
anywhere else on the field. The.woods are
very thick in treos and bushes, and tho limbs,
trunks, and branches, as they lie cut off and
torn m all directions, made an abaftis
through which our forces rushed and
charged to silenco the loud-throated voices
of those death-dealing engines. We pass
through the path of the artillery storm, and
here and,there arc the graves of our fierce
soldiers. On the second hill, with trees and
limbs lying thick about, evidences of the
terrible passion;of'man, thc’graves of many
brave Tesiaus, 24th and others, rest calmly,
marked by the.careful'handsof friends; bark
of tlicse.aro a nuinber"of*Georgians. Thence
we turn to]thc lcft.and follow tfttfSavannah
road. At intervals^theiopenj*woods show
signs of tho conflict.being mor<ysevere than
in the thickly wooded spots. It is along here,
we are told,"General Hood Hhd his men
made Etich terrible .onsets and slaughter.—
They and that portion of our army which
advanced from the Red House, and along
toe road to the right of the saw mill, did
execution which is perfectly fearluh The
carnage was awful; every avenue has been
swept as by a broad bosom ot destruction in
the hands of Hscato. Battery paths are in
numerable. Here they fought, there they
retreated, leaving dead horses, men, broken
caissons, piles of ammunition, rent clothes
and destruction generally. Oa one point on
the rise of a hill, we saw the body of an im
mense Newfoundland dog. He evidently
was the pet of some battery, and was shot
whilo following it up. Close by him wo
counted thirty eight dead Yankeea, nearly
thirty dead hoiscs; saw more than a ton ot
shells, shot and canister, and all the broken
and abandoned paraphernalia of a strong
battery, all within the space of eighty feet
square. The trees and bushes and under
growth everywhere evince the furious en
counter and desperate straggle which had
transpired. The paths where om batteries
followed up, and at various points were
placed in position, are numerous, and show
ed they were worked rapidly, doing fearful
execution. Over this part of the field, about
a mile from the saw mill, there 5 are eviden
ces of most desperate and long continued
fighting. The ground is slightly rolling and
rocky, and the chances for open, fair fight
ing about equal. The left wing of the ene
my resisted our onset there, and sullenly, but
certainly, they gave way until they were
doubled on their centre, and on Sunday
night retreated back from Snodgrass’ house
toward Chattanooga. The evidences of the
conflict are more apparent and numerous on
the entire field than ou any battle field w e
ever vi- ited. All over it, breadth and length,
the same terrible marks of desolation are
visible. The fell spirit of destruction seems
to have ricted in uncontrolled madness—
farms are destroyed—houses arc deserted—
fields arc waste—no beasts, no birds, not
even a buzzir, can be seen anywhere. The
only signs of life arc the visiting and occa
sional burying parties.
The whole country for many miles about
is completely deserted. Their fields of corn
have been destroyed, and the people are
obliged to leave to get subsistence. The en
tire field of nearly eight miles in length and
from three to five miles ia width, has been
stripped of everything that our army need
ed or required, as trophies of war. Thous
ands of visitors have gleaned aud picked
until there are only found a lew torn auc
broken articles cf no value except a? stouten
irs. Over all the extent of the field the
marks of shot are visible on every tree. Wt
are certain that not a tingle tree has escaped
All are scarred with from one to hundred-
of marks, minie grape!, grape, canis
ter, bombs, solid shot, grenades and all thi
rest of the infernal appliance? of war hav.
clipped, cut, scarred, blasted, scathed, torn
and broken the forest.
We expended ever one and a half millions of
ammunition, and nearly nine thousand hea
vy ordnance on the fiePJ. Tho enemy must
have expended a much greater quantity
they having the advantage of fixed positions
during tbe action, and the only wonder with
us is that whero not even a single tree or
bush escaped, how our men were saved.
The evidences of the destruction rained
on tho enemy, and that his loss was very
great, arc plainly exhibited oa the field.—
Notwithstanding his boasts and all the his
tory they make, the charnel house tlieir
own corpses make, the stench which arises
from tlieir yet unhurried dead tells in plain
and unmistakable, though dreadful numbers,
the horrid carnival of blood and the im
rneiisc sacrifice they made before the valor
aud bravery of our Southern arm?.
The dead bodies of the Yankees which
yet remain unhurried are scattered in large
numbers on various parts of the field. Our
burial par-ties had not entirely buried our
own dead^after the lapse of ten days, but
were rapidly doing the work. The appeer-
anc? tho Yankees present in their closely
buttoned uniforms of blue is peculiar. They
have swoUen to the size of mules, and in
many instances have burnt ilieirclothwig.—
They are all glossy and black as tlieir own
hearts oi the gloomiest ebony Ethiopian
whom in life they pretended to love so well.
It may be some consolation to tlieir surviv
ing comrodes to know they turn to that col
or lor which they aro fighting, lho*Tilacks on
earth, black in death, black in hell.
The stench emitted'over the field is intol
erable. Piirifaotion and decay has poisoned
the air for miles, yet like all dreadful things
people kecome_nsed lo it aud.thousamls con
tinue to visit.
We noticed one large room near the mid
dle of the field in which arms and legs were
piled five feet high’and over the whole floor.
From Gordon’s mills toward Chattauoogai
oa either side of the road is the best route
for the visitor. The nearest way to get to it
from the W. & A. R R. is from Gray sville
to the steam mill by way of Reed’s bridge
and then up^that broad road. Or ( go to A1
exander’s bridgo.past/Gordon’s mills and .fol
low the Chicamauga to the left, crossing and

To tho left of the road, along the hills the
most desperate and bloody work was made.
