JANUARY 9th, 1868.
DEAR BRormER;-Iour letter of Jan 18th
came to hand last night, and | was glad to
hear from you, it being the first lotter that |
have received since Christmas morning. |
have written you five or six letters since the
battle Of Stone River, and have received on
ly one in answer; don't believe one half of
my letters go through, it is perfect swindle
all around.
You thought would not have the patience
TO endure a soldies life when left home, but
| think | have stuck to it pretty well.
/ have been here now until have lost all
hope-n0t OF getting homc-but Of restoring
the Union; have lost all confidence in our
Generals; every baltic VIC hyae fought the
rebels ont General ours to pieces.
At the battle OF Stone River, where we
fought SO hard, it Is claimed that we gained
great vic tory; now don't think we gained
any victory at all; Old Bragg came very near
hankiug us, and if it had not been for our
brigade he should have done so, and captur.
cd our whole army; but when he saw he had
not force enough to flank us, he fell back, ta'
king with him forty pieces of cannon, and
about four thousand Of Our men prisoners; he
is sharp enough to know, that II he held his
position, we would whip him badly and retalle
the cannon, so he thought he would evacuatc
in time that he might keep the cannon, and
place them in some fortified position, to make
a stronger resistance the next time We ad-
vauccd upon him. Besides this Whceler's
rebel cavalry got in our rear aud burned three
hundred wagons and all they contained, be-
sides a lot more prisoners; and here they have
it in the papers ''another great victory Gcn>
Rosecrans repulsed the enemy at Murlrcus-
boro!' Just because we held the place it is
counted II victory, to say nothing Of our los.

CAMP AT MURrREEsBoRo, Jan. 26, 1853.
DEAR FRIENDS AT HOME 81 I again becomes
my duty to write you, and to inform you OF
my health, whereabouts, etc, and that l have
not forgotten home. ! am well at presenC,
and hope this may find all home the same.--
! have but little heart just now to write, or
do anything else but lament. Only to think
that few short months ago there was not u
country in the world so prosperous, happy
and contented as ours and now none plunged
in such deep darkness and threatened with
such calamity as We Aud at this time, when
our Government needs the assistance of the
wisest of patriots, it must be conducted by
weak aud fanatical men. 1 tell you, have
seen fighting enough TO convince me that its
continuance will never bring peace, and | can
not but think that if the rulers at W ashington
were here among us short time to witness
the result of their mad policy they would GER
tanly change their course.
l Will try to give You an account of the
battle of Stone River, or so much of it at
least as | witnessed. On the Friday after
Christmas we took up our line Of mal ch from
Nashville, not knowing whithor were bound,
So quietly was this conducted that even the
citizens of Nashville did not know that we
were leaving. When We had marched about
II miles We came to a little town called La
yern, held by the Rebels. Before this place
We halted for the night. On the next morn
ing VIC made preparation for another days
march, and then advanced on the town. We
here met with some opposition. The r ebels
had posted themselves in the houses, and
would fire from the windows and doors. We
finally routed them, with u loss OF four or five
wounded. The number of the enrmy's forces
was not able to leaIn, but estimate it at
between three and four thousand. We plT-
sued them in the direction Of Murfreesboro
for about S miles. Here We overlook and
again had skirmish with them, which re-
