FRIDAY OCTOBER lti
From East Tennessee.
From our own Cor respondent.
Headq'ks 2d Brig., 23d Army Corps, )
Kxoxville, October 1st, 1863. j
Editor Journal: I wrote you when we
j first arrived at Knoxville, some weeks
ago, and as the 2nd Brigade has not been
idle in the meantime, I have thought fit
to send you a short synopsis of our " ad.
ventures."
About the 9th of September we left
here on a general raid towards Bristol, a
town which is situated partly in Tennes
see, and partly in Virginia. We stopped
some four dnva at Orfnvillp tr mi-mit-
we then started to Bristol, but at Kings- I
port we met the Rebels 1,000 stronp- and
after a short skirmish routed them. Col
onel Caprin of the 14th Illinois penned
them with his regiment, and succeeded
in destroying their ammunition train.
We pushed on, and at Bristol we had
another short and brisk skirmish, driving
the rebels before us. We had a few men
wounded belonging to the 5th Indiana.
We cut the telegraph wire, tore up the
railroad, and destroyed a considerable
amount of Confederate stores. We then
fell back to Blountsville.eight miles from
Bristol, and camped for the night In
the morning, (Sunday,) about a o'clock,
we moved on towards ZollicofTer Station,
where the Rebels were reported to be in
force. Four miles from Blountsville we
met the enemy, and immediately en
gaged them. We fought them for five
hours, and, finding them too strong for
us, we fell back 'to Blourrtsrville. Three
men in Colvin's battery were wouuded,
one of whom has since died.
On Monday we fell back about 18
miles. On Tuesday we received orders
to advance on BlountariHe. About 2
o'clock Colonel Graham's regiment. (5th
Indiana Cavalry,) who were in the ad
vance, met the enemy at Blountsville.
The Rebels had their artillery planted on
a hill commanding the town. The first
or second shell the enemy fired set the
town on fire. That was a good deed for
them, for the inhabitants of the place
were all " Secesh." Colonel Foster ar
rived about half an hour after the fight
commenced, with the remainder of the
Brigade, consisting of the 14th Illinois
cavalry, 8th Tennessee cavalry, and 65th
indiuua mounted infantry. The fight
then became general. The 65th Indiana
were dismounted, and went into the fight
under command of Major Brown, and
constituted the right wing. The 5th In
diana and 8th Tennessee were placed on
the left, while the 14th Illinois was held
as a reserve. The ground was hotly con
tested for about six hours, but we finally
routed them. They fled in every direc
tion. The Sth Tennessee made a splen
did charge, bringing in about 65 prison
ers. The G5th Indiana did splendid
fighting, and it is already regarded as a
veteran regiment.' Company H, under
the command of Capt. Hornbrook, did
the hardest fighting, and their list of
kiiled and wounded will show that they
bore the brunt of the battle. But every
company nobly did its duty. Y our cor
respondent saw enough of the battle to
be able to tell the difference between the
whiz of solid shot and a bomb shell.
Col. Foster was everywhere in the thick
est of the fight, regardless of danger, and
more than once did shot and shell drop
within a few feet of him. He is bound
the Rebels shall be punished to the full
est extent when they meet his brigade.
Capt, Hornbrook carried the flag of his
Company, and it had three holes shot
through it, and one shot struck the flag
staff. The loss of the enemy in killed and
wounded is quite large. We buried six
of their killed.
The following is a list of the casualties
in the 65th Indiana: We have already
published the list in fulL Ed. Jocbsal.
LieuL Colonel Johnson has resigned
on account of bad health. Surgeon Eli
Lewis has also resigned. Lieut. Pruitt
and Lieut. Ronald have also resigned.
The above are all from the 65th.

fanaticism is the proclamation for
Thanksgiving ! What is Thanksgiving?
It is a Yankee. Puritan. Roundhead
sniveling, snurling. canting, hypocritical
institution. It smells of baked beans.

to say pumpkin-pies and soft custards.

outrageous and illegal ebulition of that
Boundhead spirit bf Phariseeism which
incessantly bloats New England conceit.
Why, let us ask why should we return

homes of our Southern brothers? Why
should we be glad that England stops
the Confederate rams? Are we grown

give fair play to an honorable antagon

But is it possible that the despotism
under which we live or, rather, die
has so paralyzed our faculttes that we do
not see the claw in this sraoothseeming

always appointed by the Puritan Gov

ment.
There may be reasons of delicacy, or
reasons of a substantial character, why
Mr. Lincoln should refusejto appoint Gen.
Butler to command the Department of
Missouri reasons that we know nothing
of; yet loyal men all over the country
desire that some efficient nan of un
doubted ability and loyal integrity should
be assigned to that important post, and
with the least possible delay We sav
this without attempting to pre judge the
case of Gen. Schofield, further than to
allude to the admitted fact or the fact
which can no Ion ger be hid or doubted
that ..ander -his administration Blatters
have gone from bad to worse, until the
Department' to-day presents the most
c om plicated aad dangerous aspect of
any Department in the nation. If it
will not do to appoint General Butler
nor General Fremont or any man select
ed by the earnest and loyal people of
Missouri, and the President is looking
around for a man most emineutly suited
for such a place and second perhaps to
General Butler in administrative ability,
we would respectfully call his attention
to Brigadier General James C. Veatch,
now in command at Memphis.
General Veatch combines with un
doubted loyalty, bravery and skill, as a
military commander, those qualities as a
civilian which are so important in such a
Denartmentas Missouri at this time.
"v - r- J .-
out of the chaos and confuaio which
prevailed in-things, military and civil, in
Memphis, proves that General Grant was
not mistaken in his man. Gen. Veatch
can hut illy be spared from Memphis;
but the greater importance of Missouri
and the urgent necessity of haying the
right kind of a man there at this timej
would justify the Presiden; in making
the change. True, he ranks only

the President could hardly find among
all our Brigadiers a more worthy subject
lor the honor, whether he is given the
Department of Missouri or not tie is
modest and retiring as he is brave and
prudent, and he is withall earnest, effi
cient, and comprehends the crisis and its
requirements as well as any man en
gaged in the national service. We com
mend General Veatch to the considera

place which needs at once the brave and
experienced soldier, and the able, com

Mack, the reliable correspondent
of the Cincinnati Commercial, is now
with the Army of the Cumberland, at
Chattanooga. In one of his letters he
gives a conversation between two pick
ets, which he overheard one day while
he wa3 " out on the front:"
I went to the extreme front, yesterday,
to take a view of the situation from that
stand-point. I found our pickets on ex
cellent terms with Bragg's men, all of
them, with a mutual understanding that
there should be no firing, and many of
them conversing on very friendly terms
with each other. One conversation, in
front of Wood's division, I heard dis
tinctly: " Rebel " Hallo, Vank, where are
yon from?''
Union "I'm from Indiana. Where
are you from?"
R " I'm from Georgia."
U " What do you think of Chicka
mauga?" R " We whipped you like hell. How
did you like it? '
U "Not much, you didn't whip us. I
can't see it. If you whipped us bad, why
didn't you take Chattanooga?"
R l'D d if I kuow. I suppose
you'ens got reinforced too much. Grant
and Hooker is comin'."
U " Why dont you pitch in before
they come? "
K " Well, don't know. Let's not talk
about that any more. Have you any
whisky? Throw me your canteen. I'll
give it back honest"
U " Nary drop have I. I'll give you
some pretty soon, though."
The Indiana man called to a comrade,
and I believe got a little "commissary,"
which he shared with his rebel friend.
