Had tho war begun with the battle- of Per rysville as it did with Bull Run,history would have given it pages instead of linos, and yet it was one of the best fought and most gallantly-contested lights of tho whole war, and its results were a hundred times greater than Fredericksburg, Chancellbrsville or Cold Harbor. It was Uragg's first grapple with tho Federal commanders who were to work his downfall in after niontlis, audit was a movement on his part destined to dispel tho Confedsx-ata illiisii,ns tliat Kentucky liad oidy to see tho Southern flag to rally by thousands. THE SITUATION. It was September, IK<>2, Kirby Smith had fought Gen. Morgan at Rogor's Gap and de. foiaV'd liim, and had pressed on to Rogorsvillo anil piet and scattered tho forces of Nelson, and had taken a position at Lexington. From this point ho gathered supplies, recruited several regiments, and made such cavalry demonstrations as to seriously alarm Cincinnati. Rragg had pushed down and captured Munfordsvillo and its garrison, and established himself at Hardstown. Huell's advance at an early day drove him from his position, ami it was not until th 6 7th of October that Bragg concentrated at PeiTysville for battle. Believing that he had Ruoll's forces so widely separated that ho would have to deal with only a Binglo corps, his plan was to concentrate, attack, defeat, and then make a junction with Kirby Smith and walk over the forces in that general's front. TUK ATTACK ON THELEI.T. MeCook had come up slowly, skirmishing heavily, and it v.as noon of tho Bth before ho swung into position on tho Federal loft. Ono can yet trace his lines these long years after. The woods in which his first lino of skirmishers was posted have disappeared and given place to fields of corn, and some of tho houses and bio ns are no longer there, but tho stouo vails and the hills and the shade treos toll the story. It was a strong position, so strong that before Hardee moved forward to tho uttack ho had a council with his division comuiMiidcrsuud warned them that ttio attack must bo made with a rush to bo successful. Two hours after nopn Hardee with his three divisions moved out in splendid stylo, and the Il'-st musket fired from tho Fodorul skirmishcrs in tho woods along Rousseau's front killed a captain in Huckuer's division. With that sh>jt nil the Federal batteries ia position opened fire, and tho Confodorut.es broke from "coinmon-tiino'' to "double quick," and rushed to the attack. ATTIIfc'JIHIDOK.. Cheatham's division had como down tho Maxville highway, and us they reached the bridge spanning tho creek now called after him they found tho Federals in their front and th.'fight began in bitter earnest. The stone w alls behind which tho Fodorajs were posted stand there to-day, showing the marks of hundreds of bullets, and so fierce was tho lire from behind these defenses that lino upon line of Confederates prostrated thorn. selves until its fury should pass. From their positions along tho banks and in the timber they soon opened a galling lire in return, nn<Hicforo tho tight bad lasted thirty minutes they were guiuiug ground. Many of tho guns on tho hill übovo tho Federal position were silenced by tho flro of the sharp slioolirs, and wheuitcamo to bo shouted along tho lilies that Jackson had been killoil tho raw troops in his division, many of whom had never fired a gun before, began to Butter. If they gave way they would Open a fatal gap- A do/on officers rushed to rally then;, and tho Confederates wore near enough to near a captain crying out in stentorian Ions; " Stand Arm, lioys—for tho lovo of tho dear old Union don't give way!" Jackson's troops rallied, even though some of the regiments were ill full retreat, and they stood to the stone Willi and poured in such volleys that the Con fed .'rate advance wus paralyzed. A captain of Huckuer's division, in doscril'ing this part of the flight, said: " We saw Jackson's men giving way, and with loud cheers we pushed forward todrive them. If] company was within fifty feet of tho wavering blue line, when all of a sudden it rallied and gave us such a volley that nearly half my seventy men were killed or wounded and our advance fell back in tho greatest disorder." A PANIC AMONG RECRUITS. Ten-ill's men hnd tho strongest kind of a ]H)sition. and two batteries behind thorn were so posted as to swoop tho whole front When the Confederates were forced back by Jackson's men they rallied and moved at an oblique against Terrill. In his division were several regiments never under flro before- They waited like old vott rans for tho advance but when tho Confederates broke into a run and began yelling, the. raw men fell back without discharging their musket*, and the enemy's bullets no sooner struck among them than they fell back in a panic that carried their officers with them. Whore the batteries were paete '. is now a ft .-Id of oats. As the crowd surged back Terrill rode to and fro commanding nnd pleading, and just beside a tie., since dead and chopi>ed down, he fe'll mortally wounded. This completed the \mnic and most of the dhision racked pellmell for the rear, hardly a man taking his gun with him Then was seen a brave sight Starkweather's brigade was in reserve It navel up fa) galhint style. o)H.nod ranks to let the frightened recruit* pass through, and then steadily advanced to the walls and rifle pils. drove the Confederates out, aud'pliliUd thenisvlvks there tostay. KcOooSTI left hud beea fairly taiued. but thisono brigade stood in th Way. A whole division was buried against it time after time, but It clung to the walls and maintained such a fierce and rapid flro of musketry that Buell supposed Mc- Cook's whiolo division was hotly ongngod. For an hour and a half this gallant brlgado repulsed every assault made, but then had to fall back to a shorter lino pi prevent a ftauk movement. PRAI&UC FROM AN ENEMY. A Confederate colonel who wrote a newspaper account of that battle said of Stark weather's brigade: "We had McCook's left fatrly beaten and ono whole division on tho run, when a single brigade plantod itself across our advance. Such nerve and gallantry will seldom bo witnessed again. I myself was in four of the charges against their position, aivd twice I thought wo should swarm right over thoin, but each time wo were driven back by their cool and terrible fire, leaving the ground covered with, our dead and wounded. Hardee and raved stormed, and chargo after charge was made, but tho bluo-coats could not lie driven.; When they finally Bhortonod tho lino they Viovetl-baclf under flro in a manner to reflect credit on tho best troops Napoleon ever commanded.'- FROM CREEK TO HILT.. Itousaeau occupied a ridge partly crowned with trees partly under cultivation, crossed by two highways and offering shelter for liis infantry and good p<»sitions for his batteries. In his front was Crazy Crook, half liidden with its banks forming splendid breastworks. Beyond wore fences, walls and fields. * Where Anderson formed his line of battle twenty yearn ago tho corn grows rank and tho wheat stands high. Whero Rousseau pushed forward tho brigades of Lytlo and Harris to hold a skirt of woods, tho May breezes rustled tho ripening oats as I looked down from tho spot whero Sloan's battery was stationed. There woro many raw regiments in Anderson's division, a tho companies being totally uiulrilled, and only throe regiments liuving been in any previous engagement. Regiments woro mossed for tho attack under artillery flro, and as tho bugle sounilod its notos tho ontiro division moved forward. REPULSE AND VICTORY. Tho two Federal brigades were firmly rooted anil not a musket crackod until tho Confederate lineß woro within pistol shot. Then a rush was but it was mot by such a flro that tho men woro appalled. Hold to their work by the officers, many of thom fired in tho air, while other companies iu some cases charged bayonets at ouch other iu tho smoke. Sviuu of tho veteran rogimonts lipwovor, displuyed the greatest gallantry, charging square up to tho Federal position and fighting 011 either siilo of tho walls ami fences. It wru%u terrified fight for fUtoon minutes, and when the Confederates retired the ground frflm, bill to creek was thickly strewn with victims. In a few, minutes the gray linos woro reformed for another advance, this time resolved not to bo halted. Without stopping to Are, tlioy sw.ung up the slopes with yells and cheers. Tho weight was overpowering; the Federals full back, to thy main lino. A DESPERATE STRUGGLE. The Confederates wore pushing on when another Federal brigade hurried down, and evory pioco of artillery which eould be brought up was soon in position anil using grape and canister, Anderson also brought forward his guns, and,fur half an hour there was a desperate struggle. Bragg said in aftor years that the fighting at this one point botweou two divisions was fiercer than any portion of tho battle of Chicjtamauga where an entire corps was engaged. When a fourth Federal brigade had been advanced, tho Confederates in their turn had to give ground. They wero followed up briskly until Rousseau's line rested whoro tho fight openod. SINGULAR INCIDENTS. When tls) Fifth Wisconsin battery camo into action ono of the guns threw a solid Bhot which struck a soldier full in thobrjaift, crushing him to a pulp. His musket flew to tho rear, whirling savagely through tho air, anil it crushed tho skull of one soldier a#d bailly Injured another. The shot deflected to the loft aftor striking the first man, and it then mashed a liouteuant's hip, broke the log of u private behind him, and rolled along the ground and crushod the head of a wounded man. A shell flred by Sloan's battery struck a stone weighing about fifty potently, and while the shell failed to explode the fragments of stque killed and wounded several men. A Confederate shell which fell among Jackson's men alighted in a little creek at whiph scores of rueji were filling their cautoeii, It came down in a group of ton or twelve men and plunged into the very sjiot whore a canteen had just been filled. While the shell did not explode,ite fall splashed water over fifty men. An ex-Confederate captain nqw living in Atlanta vho lost his iu°m in that hud a button cut from his breast by a grupe-«hoti his scabbard struck by a bullet and his cap knocked from his hoad by a piece of shell before receiving tho bullet which crushod his elbow. A gun in one of Anderson's batteries bad a right wheel shivered by a solid shot. It had scarcely been replaced by the spare wheel when another shot crushed tho left wheel. * The men were tr) ing to drag the gun back when a •hell struck it fair in the mouth and split it for a distance of three feet. None of the men around the gun were hurt by this shell, but three soldiers in lino over 300 feet away were struck down. A Confederate shell sent into Stedman's brigade exploded over the heads of a company advancing, and while no ono in that com]>any was hurt, four men in the center of tbo next comjiany behind were mortally woundod. ATTACKING bIIEUIDAN. Failing to drive Rousseau, Hardee massed everything against Sheridan's division and for a few minutes drove it before him. Shejfi dan called upon -Mitchell for reiiifor ceincnts, rallied his lino across tho Springfield pike, -and after a quarter of an hour of hot work ho ordered an advance of his wholo di vision, McCook's right swinging at tho same time. At some points tho Confederate* stood until bayonets clashed, but tho impetus of tho mighty Wavo siVopt field and wood and highway clear of Confederates and as tlioy bofjun to give way tho Federals checre-l along tho whole front. FIGHTING OVER PRISONERS. Tkjji was the first battle iu which Federal and Confederate regiments raised in Kentucky wero placed opposite to each other. Both realised tho fact, and tlioy fought with j a bitterness which other regiments could not feel. In tho last advance, about a dozen men belonging to nn Ohio regiment pushed ahead so rapidly that, they suddenly found themselves surrounded and taken prisoners. Bo- j fere they could bo sout to tho roar a company : of Federal and Kentuekians advanced to res. | que thom, and at tho samp moment a com- j pany of Confederates raised in tho same j county rushod forward to hold tho men. [ Ono of tho Confederates, now living in 1 Franklin, Tonn., <<nys of tho struggle which took place: > "Wo did not stop to firo, but rushod forward with tho bayonet. In a moment wo wero all mixed up, jabbing arid prodding with bayonet and striking each other with the butts of muskets. A Federal, who had formerly lived within two inilosof my farm made a push at mo, and his bayonet passed between my right arm and wont through my coat. Before he eould withdraw it I hit him a blow with my fist, and wlion he fell I piled on to him ami held him down, although ho bit my thumb to tho bono. Wo were huving it hot and heavy when our folks fell back and left me to bo captured. 111 those few minutes I saw tho bayofiot used at least twonty times, and I beliovo that fully thirty men were struck with muskets." BACK THROUGH THE TOWN. The Confederates wero being pushed, but thoy wero giving ground rather slowly, still fighting, when unexpectedly certain brigades began to march out of the tight. It is charged that Polk lost his head and ordered a retreat to a now lino. Polk laid tho bliune upon Bragg, anil an effort was mailo to hold Hardoo responsible. No matter with which officer tho fault was, tho Confederates began falling back, and once tho retreat was begun it ontered ill a helter-skelter rush through tho town, and in the rapid pursuit and capture of many prisoners and a considerable quantity of war material by tho Federals At night, against tho protest of tho division comtuuuders, tho Confederates woro withdrawn and tho entire field left to tho Union forces. WHAT BRAGG LEARNED. Previous to this fight Bragg encouraged the idea tliuA a Confederate army could easily clear Kentucky of any Federal force and keep it clear. Ho promulgated the doctrine among liis troops that they had only to chargo tho Federal lines to scatter thpm, and his men wero led to believo that thoy had only to firo a few volleys to win a battle. Indeed, his plan was to whip tho Federal army in about an hour and inako a rapid march to join Kirby Smith, who was held at bay elsewhere- Polk had tho same contempt for tho bluecoats, and Hanloe had often been sneered at for asserting that Northern men would stand, up in line of battlo. Tho results of Perrysville wero a bitter doso in several respects The, Confederate soldier realized that ho had been deceived anil defeated where ho expect ed an easy victory. Bragg anil Polk had their plans disorganized, and tho Idea of holding Kentucky had to bo abandoned. As Bull Run taught both armies iu tho East the fact that war meant fight and fignf J meant kill, so ulso did Porrysvlllo furnish the Western armies with a lesson written in blood. Future battles woro to bo fought with some thiijg more solid than a braggarts assertions. Both sides realized that whero numbers wero reasonably equal tho fight would bo steady and furious, and so it proved through tho long and bloody years that followed. Lake Disasters. Sovtk |Havkn, Mich. Juno 4—'The schooner Industry from St. Joseph capsized north of this harbor this evening. All on board were drowned. The wreck was neJir the shore and was witnessed by hundreds, but owing.to the terrible sea it was impossible to render assistance. When first soon the sailors wore dinging to the rigging but were washed away one by one. Capt. King was last to go down. He was at one tinio so near the shore that he could be recognized. Uallaut effort* were made by sailors ashore to rescue the perishing crow but the wreck was carried so rapidly by the gale that nothing could reach,her.

Had tho war begun with the battle- of Per rysville as it did with Bull Run,history would have given it pages instead of linos, and yet it was one of the best fought and most gallantly-contested lights of tho whole war, and its results were a hundred times greater than Fredericksburg, Chancellbrsville or Cold Harbor. It was Uragg's first grapple with tho Federal commanders who were to work his downfall in after niontlis, audit was a movement on his part destined to dispel tho Confedsx-ata illiisii,ns tliat Kentucky liad oidy to see tho Southern flag to rally by thousands. THE SITUATION. It was September, IK<>2, Kirby Smith had fought Gen. Morgan at Rogor's Gap and de. foiaV'd liim, and had pressed on to Rogorsvillo anil piet and scattered tho forces of Nelson, and had taken a position at Lexington. From this point ho gathered supplies, recruited several regiments, and made such cavalry demonstrations as to seriously alarm Cincinnati. Rragg had pushed down and captured Munfordsvillo and its garrison, and established himself at Hardstown. Huell's advance at an early day drove him from his position, ami it was not until th 6 7th of October that Bragg concentrated at PeiTysville for battle. Believing that he had Ruoll's forces so widely separated that ho would have to deal with only a Binglo corps, his plan was to concentrate, attack, defeat, and then make a junction with Kirby Smith and walk over the forces in that general's front. TUK ATTACK ON THELEI.T. MeCook had come up slowly, skirmishing heavily, and it v.as noon of tho Bth before ho swung into position on tho Federal loft. Ono can yet trace his lines these long years after. The woods in which his first lino of skirmishers was posted have disappeared and given place to fields of corn, and some of tho houses and bio ns are no longer there, but tho stouo vails and the hills and the shade treos toll the story. It was a strong position, so strong that before Hardee moved forward to tho uttack ho had a council with his division comuiMiidcrsuud warned them that ttio attack must bo made with a rush to bo successful. Two hours after nopn Hardee with his three divisions moved out in splendid stylo, and the Il'-st musket fired from tho Fodorul skirmishcrs in tho woods along Rousseau's front killed a captain in Huckuer's division. With that sh>jt nil the Federal batteries ia position opened fire, and tho Confodorut.es broke from "coinmon-tiino'' to "double quick" and rushed to the attack. ATTIIfc'JIHIDOK.. Cheatham's division had como down tho Maxville highway, and us they reached the bridge spanning tho creek now called after him they found tho Federals in their front and th.'fight began in bitter earnest. The stone w alls behind which tho Fodorajs were posted stand there to-day, showing the marks of hundreds of bullets, and so fierce was tho lire from behind these defenses that lino upon line of Confederates prostrated thorn. selves until its fury should pass. From their positions along tho banks and in the timber they soon opened a galling lire in return, nn |
