But I need not tell you the advantages-you know them. 1 only would exhort you ; and tho rather, that I find in my own caso, that tho principal cause f my own leanness and unfruiffulness is owing to unaccountable backwardness to pray.

Editohs: It is seldom that I iudulgo in tho mania for uewspaper writing but upon this occasion when so many of tho representatives of Fairfield have been engaged in battle, it is but proper that somo one should endeavor to write tho history of their achieve ments, and to preserve tho honors they have so nobly won. They deserved the crown of laurel for tho engagement that was fought at Hoover's Gap last spring when Gen. Rosccrans advanced from Murf'recsboro,)utthe praise was awarded, by somo paid newspaper cor respondent to another brigade and an other division. This time however. there can be no difference, of opinion, nor ought thcro to bo any jealousy or ill will among thoso who so undaunted ly braved the storm of bullets and shells of the 19th and 20th of Septom ber. Far be it from mo to banish the fame or call "into question the courage or the patriotism of any portion of this trlorious Army of tho Cumberland. A braver, nobler, or more self sacrifiC' ing number of men were never gathered together.

In making a movement of troops, it was almost tsscntial that it should be done at night, as tho dust was so heavy that tho direction of ev ery column was thus plainly indicated to tho enemy.

Connell, and aftor marching all Friday night, halted Saturday morning early for tho purpose of preparing break breakfast. - fast. breakfast. The meal being hurriedly par partaken - taken partaken of, tho troops were moved and formed to the support of. tho other two brigades who wero in line. But a very short time clapsod bofore heavy skir mishing commenced and both tho re maining brigades were engaged with tho cnomy, while tho 17th, together with another regiment and tho battery moved up towards tho third Brigade for tho purpose of supporting them, our regiment, tho 31st Ohio, being left behind, Col. Vandovier, who com mands the third Brigade, placed the 17th on the right of tho 9th Ohio. No sooner had they gained their position befor a chargo was ordered, and I air field boys, with tho ocst regiment of soldiers Cincinnati has furnished, had the honor of assisting in the re-capturo of a battery which tho Regular brig brigade - ade brigade had lost in their hasty and precip itate retreat.. Tho battery was taken without the firing of a gun, or tho loss of a singlo man. Tho enemy charged forward after tho boys, but. wero re pulsed by grapo and musketry. The worst of the battle hero being passed, tho regiment having rejoined their command, moved up to support Gen. Palmer's division. Night coming on, tho boys .(the wholo brigade having boon united) prepared to take such rest as they could secure, but were again ordered out, and changod their position so that when halted for the night they were in front of Gen. Nog- ley's division. Although the regiment was not in much of the fight on tho 19th, yet you must understand the position thoy oc cupied was no easy ono, being in re serve, thoy wero constantly in sound of tho. wholo of tho battle, which lasted from early ir. the morning until lato at night. The incossant demand for their services for supporting the remaining brigades of the division, kept them on tho move, at double-quick most of tho time ; and when night came they could not help feeling grateful for the cause which procured them re6t from their labors. The battle of Saturday result resulted - ed resulted in no advantage to tho enemy our boys had withstood tho storm bravely, and night found them occupying very near tho same position thoy had taken in tho morning. The number of pris prisoners - oners prisoners taken was largely in our favor, and thus jubilant night drew her man mantle - tle mantle over the scene of carnago and blood. Iiongstroet's corps, which num numbers - bers numbers most of tho Georgians in its ranks, with their entire strength had boon hurled upon tho 3d Division, and for four hours, amid tho heaviest fire known, alone and unaided this gallant command held the flower of the rebel army at bay. ; Never in the annals of this war was there a better instanco of what indomitable courage will accora nlish Sunday morning (20th) tho firing began heavy and brisk on tho left and showed that the enemy wero still bent upon their design of cutting us off from Chattanooga. The Dauio sounuea hko distant thunder, and kept on increas ing in strength and. power tho nearer the fighting came. Everything pro claimed that the battle was general
along tho entire line, and that tho en- my wero making evory effort in thoir power to break our luft. Tho .division which was 1 on tho right being taken away, leaving the flank of the regiment exposed,' a, number of men wero sent out for tho purpose of watching the inovemonts of tho enemy who were in tho front an'd givo notice of their approach. Our boys had thrown up somo '"lance rails for protection, and . .. i. a ' ' hardly had the flankers moved any distance before the enemy, in irresista irresista-blo - blo irresista-blo numbers and closod en masse, made their appearance, and before the regi regiment - ment regiment had an opportunity of getting into positicm to receive them, charged right forward, firing tho most awful volley of musketry, mowing down the men like grass, arid trampling over thoso who wero wonnded. No human power on earth could have stayed tho tide. Men were compelled to givo way; tho rebels outnumbered them ten to pno. Slowly and sullenly our men retired, not running, ' but to use the graphic language of Major Butterfield, absolutely "pushed" away from their placo by the overwhelming forco of the enemy. Everything was done that it was possible for human beings to do. The men, under tho efforts of their offi cers and prompted by their own con victions of duty, rallied time and time again, moved forward townrd the ene enemy, - my, enemy, fighting gallantly and gloriously; but alas, to no purpose, for every rally was but an invitation to death. In theso moments, when mens' very souls wero' tried, when tho shock of battle was raging the fiercest amid the smoke una noise, tho loud cheers of the foe and tho desperate resistance to their attack, many a soul bid farewell to earthly scenes, and familiar faces in your midst will bo seen no moro. Tho numerous instances . of heroic daring and god-like bravery that transpired in thoso moments would fill a volume Fairfield need never blush for that hour for not a man but that did bis duty nobly and well, bus sho sent from homo. Every where confusion reigned su prcmo. The army was fleeing before a desperate and apparently successful foe. Tho whole of McCook's Corps had given way, and like all other com mands was unable to rally. Our right flank being wholly exposed, it became necessary for Gon. Thomas to gain a position and rally his men. To him the1 nation to-day stands indebted for the safety of the Army of the Cumber Cumber-laud: - laud: Cumber-laud: mothers for the lives of their sons, and wives for tho personal liber ty of their husbands. Never, in the history of this nation bus there been timo when a singlo man deserved tho love, admiration and tho unbounded respect of an cntiro people as now. There breathes no purer patriot or more accomplished soldier, modest and unassuming, kind and affectionate in all his intercourse with his inferiors; in tho hour of battle he is tho very personification of bravery, and on tho afternoon of Sunday saved, by his per sonal exertions, tho Army of tho Cum bcrland from worse than defeat. Sunda' evening our men occupied a new line nearer tho town, and by the exertions of the officers, tho stragglers were gathered together, men who had been seperatcd from thoir commands rejoined them, and before tho dawn of Monday morning, confideco was ro-cs tablishcd, and tho men vowod that tho ebcls should not whip them, and that they would npt move another step. Daylight enmo and no attack was made; a week has passed and a placo natu naturally - rally naturally Btrong has been rendered almost impregnable by art. Thus ends ono of tho most despcrato anil obstinately fought battles of tho war. Tho men wtiro fighting most of tho tune within fifty yards 'of each other, and no dispo sition was manifested to shrink from tho combat; frequently tho scene would chango and liko tho waves, would b tho pressing to and fro of the opposing columns. Wo aro not beaten; the cne my aro not by any means jubilant; they have gained 'tis truo, the ba'tllc-fiold but they are by rib means nearer., tho accomplishment of thoir designs than they wero bofore the engagement.
