Gen. A.P. Stewart, Southern Commissioner Chicamauga'and Chattanooga National Park, WASHINGTON; D. C. Sib:— ~ In compliance iivith yoor invita tion and request through -Gov. Northen to Georgia commands for information and positions engaged in the battle oE Chicamauga, hav ing no record extant, in order that; all such; may be given as fair a representation as possible in the plan By act of Congress, making the Ghieamauga battle field a Na tional Park-; and to the end that your honorable body may be. fur nished every facility enabling them the better to make a true and correct compilation of facts touch ing its history and demarkations, leaving the whole in completion a monument of truth within itself, to stand forever to the. prowess and valor of the American soldiers. I have the honor to submit the fol lowing statement or report of the action taken in the battle of Chica mauga by Havis’ Ga. Battery, Re serve Artillery, Army of Tennes see, then commanded by Maj. Felix H. Robertson. Said report being based on a private diary kept by myself dnring the entire war, still in my possession; showing each day for itself. It was written at intervals on the field as I then saw and understood the. surroandings; an exact transcript of which is en closed/not embodied in report, but as evidence of its truthfulness and corroborative of the assumption that this battery (Havis’) fired the first cannon and lost the first Con federate soldier killed on the 18th, in the preliminary opening of that great and sanguine battle: to wit: battle of Chicamauga. Soon after this . fight Gen •Johnston’s command pushed up to oar support, and in conjunction with Havis’ (hot Bledsoe’s) bat tery drove the enemy across and : beyond Reed’s bridge spanning Chicamauga river; and where we silenced a Federal battery on •'the other side contesting passage, and wonndingafew of our infantrymen and in turn on our part killing and wounding several of the enemy, a horse or two, and I ... think one cow. No other action by Havis’ bat tery Friday evening, which still accompanied Gen. Johnston scorn mand on to Jay’s steam saw mill;, thence on nearAlexander’s ford,and bivouacing in line of battle for the night, half waking, half sleeping’-Eultonsayse, “A section of the and half freezing—having no blankets, and hungry—somewhere I think not a great distance from Vineyard’s, in the vicinity of tbe road leading from Chattanooga to Lee & Gordon’s mill. Next day, Saturday 19fh, about 10 o’clock a. m., Havis’ battery moved further to the right, where it stood the remainder of the day with every hair on end momenta- rially expecting to be thrown into tbe'.terrible battle just ahead of us. This day we did not fire a gun, or having become adepts, prone flat upon the ground, head front, at hugging trees, many of which abounded in that forest, we were entirely whole at night, and when we again bivonaced and sucked our thumbs for supper, as usual. At 3 o’clock Sunday morning, 20th, we were ordered, and did re port to Geu.JBucbner, who having no position on his line for us, or dered us to Gen. Hood, who in turn assigned us to Gen. Robertson’s Texas brigade, somewhere I think, a little right of center, and where we got into position by daylight. About 11 o’clock a. m. we were rushed to the front with several other batteries, through a sheet of fire, leaden hail, solid shot, grape shot, falling boughs and trees (and I believe some brimstone) some where near the Lee & Gordon road, which then seemed to me like hell itself turned loose on earth with the devil and all his impo-iD-fitall—otxa first Missouri (Bledsoe’s) battery of tbe Reserve Artillery opened fire and drove the enemy from his "position. Thus speaking, of ’ said' Tull description of each kind. REPORT. On Friday morning, Sept. 18th 1863, Havis’ battery and one otner of the Reserve Artillery (8 guns) under command of Maj. Robertson moved out of bivouac from be tween La Fayette and Ringgold, and reported about 11 o’olock to Gen. B- R- Johnson, then com manding right column of army in line of battle, near' Peeler’s mill, on the Graysville and La Fayette road." Soon thereafter Havis’ bat tery became engaged with the ene my at Peavine creek,where the trail of one gun was broken in recoil, and left in the rear for repairs. The other three guns of the bat tery pushed immediately forward with Gen. Forest in person, accom panied only by bis escort, making a spirited and running fight of perhaps several miles. Going in to action here and there- as the en emy offered resistance, when about 1 o’clock p. m., we suddenly and —(without warning fell into the arms, so-to speak, of a Federal brigade, of perhaps dismounted cavalry (said to have been Minty’s) only escaping capture by the-- “skin of our teeth,’’ or want of nerve by the enemy to-do ns up in good style, as was fully in bis power to have done, — - A little -rashness full of dash on the part of tbe.gallant Gen. Forest in making a continuous charge with a battery of artillery over the highways and through the woods, with no support in striking dis- bihce behind, and not even a yi- dette or scout in front, had the ef fect, however, of paralizing tbe_en- emy with abjeot fear before he had time to see and understand onr true surroundings. Hence, after a few volleys fired into ns, they fled in confusion before the terrible fire of the battery, which bad rush- ed up and unlinjbered in his midst and now continued pouring canis ter into his ranks as he" fled down descent and through an open field to Reed’s bridge, not far off. Here we lost J. Streeter, shot through the abdomen, and I think the first Confederate soldier killed in the preliminary opening ofthe battery (Bledsoe’s) as the Reserve Artillery goes to prove that it was Havis’ battery, which in fact be longed to the Reserve Artillery— hence you see both of these wor thy officers must and could easily have made the mistake. Again page 299 Lieut. W. L. Wood, commanding Bledsoe’s bat tery, in his report does not men tion any action by Bledsoe’s' bat tery, except on Saturday the 19th j Again page 493 Lieut. W. S. Everett does not mention in bis report any action by his battery ofl- Friday 18th; and no mention any where that Culpepper’s battery .vent, into action on Friday 18th. So you see these three batteries mentioned above-arid named iu the early part of Gen. Johnston’s re port being the only batteries tb,?n in bis column except'the Reserve Artillery, I am oblged to" be cor rect in my statement and, report of thg action by Havis’ battery both at Pea Vine creek (the first can non fired) and also at Reed’s bridge. Then again, I find no official re port from any officer showing a Confederate soldier killed prior to J. Streeter of Havis’ battery, or that any battery fired a caumin pi i- or to said battery at Pea Vi ue creek. . This is a matter of small ennut. nevertheless the truth as Here we stood, saw, and took it all without firing a gun, because of our infantry beiug just in front of us, and whose support We -were if driven back in this terrible and desperate onslaught. In other words we were huddled in the pen ior slaughter, but the gallant men in our front (I will always love them) were equal to the emergency, and we escaped with a few horses killed and a few men wounded. After this we were thrown to ward the left and somewhat con fronting Snod Grass Hill, but could not get in position on our part of the line, though heavily ex posed at times during the balance of the day. Sunday night we again bivonac ed with the wounded and dying of both armies all around ns; so hor rible that I still shudder at the mention of Ghicamanfia. Excuse the comment, but I "was back on that gory old field again the past summer; the first time, nearly 27 years ago since I stood, I think, on the very identical spot, in the midst of ruin aud death, and was scarcely able to realise wheth er the past had been a reality or some horrible tale of whioh I bad read or dreamed. v The then young soldier, in other words, enquiring of and insisting on the middle-aged ex-soldier to answer why man should have been so cruel to man ?

Stafford, ’ J. Al Bryan. ADDENDA (Explanation of errors.) In the official reports^ both of Gen.B. R. Johnston and Col. John S. Fulton, Hayis’ battery is made to suffer, no doubt, an unintentional injustice, toy naming: Bledsoe’s Missouri battery- as 1 silencing a Federal battery at Reed’s bridge^ ..instead j£ Havis’ battery, which was in fact the only one then and there engaged. In series I voL XXX pgs. 451 and 452, Gen. Johnston says “Maj. Robertson repiorted to me with eight pieces of jxtillery.” “Maj. Robertson placed some four pieces of bis own command, etc.,” both of which statements are entirely cor rect; but in same connection says: “The enemy opened 'a battery on the bridge, which was silenced by _a section of Bledsoe’s artillery.’’ This last statement is a mistake— he should have said Havis’ battery.

Houston county is the garden spot of the United States. There is no season of the year that we cannot have garden vegetables growing. In preparing for gardening, the best manure is the rich loam from the woods, found beneath the un- rotted leaves, which must be raked aside. . ‘ > Haul this loam into the garden .in October, and spread it four inches deep • all over the land. Then break the land with a Dixie plow, as deep as a mule can pull it. Follow in the Dixie plow fur row with a large diamond-pointed scooter, stirriug the sub-soil as deeply as possible. This deep lire iking will prevent the heavy raius_from “sobbing” the land, and also prevent the sammer drouth fro:ni injuring the cabbage plants. After Lilly la liaut—nrauirre' Albany (Ga.) News Several nights since, as two well known young men of the city were walking in the neighborhood of the Baptist church, their attention was attracted to a tall figure that stood under the shadow of-an oax. Moved by some subtle influence; they stbpped'and peered through the gloom at the tall figure, and then, with some misgivings, they advanced toward it. As they near ed the tall figure, they sought to elicit some expression from it by badinage, but the tall figure re mained as motionless and silent as a statue, until the young men' were within two feet of it. Then, with dismay, they discov ered that the figure was the head, less trunk of a man, bat before they could put their inclination to fly into execution, the long arms of- the figure smote each of them with-terrific blows, causing them to fall like sticks at bis feet When they recovered an hour afterward their ghostly visitor was gone/ but there was no indication that violence had been done either of them, and they were not long in leaving the spot where they eflr euuntered such a strange adven ture. One of these young men, - who prefers that his name shall not be given for the present, at least, was the reporter’s informant of the sto ry as related above. He said that when struck by the headless figure, he experienced no pain, bat a sensation like the ting ling of' a slight electric shock pass ed through his frame, and then he became completely paralyzed. He did not lose consciousness, but could not move a muscle,nor conld he utter the slightest sound. - While in. this condition the tall fimine hent, over hig pjcostralh form from tke/horse lot, in November, and spread two inches deep broad cast over the land. Then break as iu the first breaking. Then in December take green cotton seed, 200 bushels per acre, spread broadcast over the garden, and break again, as before. Then, as early as the spring will admit, take your cabbage plants from the hot beds and transplant in rows three feet wide, by two feet apart in the drill to make large heads. They can be placed closer together for early market;- With that distance I have grown hard heads that weighed 25 pounds each. The best method of preparing the land for transplanting is to run off the rows with a six-inch shovel plow, and put a little barn-yard manure, or guano, in the furrow. Then make the bed with a. four- inch scooter, and strike off tho bed with a hoe, leaving a flat top. Set out the plants. As soon as they take root and start to grow, plow as close to the plants as possible... with a small scooter/and put gnano in the sid ing furrowd^at the rate of 800 pounds to the acre^ and plough out and that of his companion also, and made a hurried search of their pockets.

But cannot the princi ples of a teacher’s chathoqua and a farmers’ institute be so blended that all daring fair week the as sembly’ hall shall have constantly in progress exercises which shall give to the farmers of Georgia the most prominent features of the great educational-movement which has as its aim the accomplishment of great qhanges in the conditions of living ia the country ? It is not difficult to see that two things— poor schools and poor homes—are at the bottom of half the troubles which form so frequently the'sta- ple of conversation when the far mers’condition is referred to. The easiest way in which to account ^ for a poor school is to lay the re sponsibility upon-a poor teacher; and a poor home-—a very different thing,by the way r from a poor house —is supposed to exist as the fault _ of a poor homemaker: And enough truth-is in both assumptions to let them pass, If we will understand, that-the farmer who does'notknow enough, of what a good school and- a good home are, to make It pos sible for him to lend active and intelligent co-operalion at all times and all seasons, has nohope under heaven of ever offering to his chil dren the one or the other. How tomake farm life pleasant? —the question has ad army of earnest )vorkers engaged in finding the answer. Farm life will be pleasant when there is a home on every farm, and the “home annex es,” as schools have been called,are worthy of the name home. The boys and girls who gravitate to ward town are simply following the instincts/ of their higher- natures. It is, as we kno n, a poor creature whose wants end with food aud raiment.

From another source the repor ter learned that for some time past some of the residents in that por- 1 tion of the city where these young men had tbeir strange adventure, haye been troubled at night by strange and unnatural noises around their homes, the mystery of which they have not been, able to solve, but which are probably accounted for in the meeting which the young men had with tbe head less figure. And the question now is, is That figure the body of some unfortu nate who lost bis head in f an acci dent of some kind,and is now wan dering in search of it, or is it some puuuub tu iiio aert* unu. piougu ouuk. _ . , _ • . • the middles.
