From Rosecran's Army.
Butternut Account of Rosecran's
BattIes-AccOunt by the Cores
pendent OF the N. Y. Herald.

CINCINNATI, September 24th.-Mr.
Shanks, correspondent of the Herald
has arrived here from the battlefield Of
Chicamanga, where he witnessed the
two days fighting.
He says that the official reports of the
battle from Washington are, in the main,
total fabrication. and that, really, the
army of the Cumberland has met with a
defeat which must put it on the defensive
for some time to come. 8sa
Ihomass eorps-was really the only
one which did any fighting on Satur-
day.
1t defeated Longstreet with considera-
BILE slaughter, driving him again over a
mile across the Chicamingo river.
Longstreet in the two hours lost | 900
men killed and double that mum Der
wounded.
McCook's and Crittendens corps on
the same day were both badly beaten,
and the enemy broke the centre, driviny
Crittenden in every direction. The de-
feat of this part of the line caused Thorn
as to abandon his field and fall back to
protect his flank and re-establish his line.
At the same time, the enemy not
knowing what he had accidently accom-
pllshed, failed to pursue the advantage,
and Wood and Negley went in the centre
and re-established that part of the line
The day was ours though the enemy held
the field. rrg
The rebel loss in killed and wounded
will exceed ours. In killed he has more
than double our number.
Rosecrans is in no danger, but at the
time Mr.. Shanks left Chattanooga, the
danger to Burnside was very imminent.
We. had taken three pieces of artillery
more than we had lost. On the first day
Thomas had defeated Longstreet; on the
second he save the army of Rosecrans
from humiliation.
From 10 to II on Sunday he fought
the enemy and repulsed him in his
charges, when finding the assault in vain,
he enemy pushed forward on the right
and center, and at the first charge broke
Jrittendens and McCook's lines, and
routed their entire commands, driving
hem in disgraceful panic into Rossville
and Chattanooga. aJ7-a n.ls v..e 4
Thomas with his corps still contested
he day, and was enabled, by his timely
'e-entorcements of Granger, to hold
position until nightfall covered his re-
reat to Rossville
Mr.. Shanks left the field at 7 PM on
sunday, and Chattanooga at noon on
Monday. Rosecrans was falling back on
Chattanooga, where he was perfectly safe
