Our CoRREspoNDENoE FROM TIE BATTLE FIELD.
We published yesterday the only complete
and suthentio account which hos appeared Of
the great battles which took place at Chatta-
nooga continuing for three days. Our corres-
pondent, Mr.W. +. G. Snanks, was present during
the struggle, and has furnished to our readers
the most graphic aud comprehensive report of q
battle ever published The incidents are Wv
idly described each event being related in such
manner as to bring the scene before the vision
of the reader. The great battle Of Waterloo.
which occurred 90 many years since, and which
has been described by such great writers. was
never more brilliantly pictured, even by that
master mind, Victor Hugo, than the battle of
Chattanooga by our correspondent Hugo's
description Of Waterloo is grand, carefully
finished oil painting. Ohr correspondents
description Is life like photograph Of the battle
OF Chattanooga, still more true to nature, still
more reliable.
To the graphic pen of Mr.. Shanks our read
ers were indebted for the brilliant and interest.
ing description Of the battle Of Murfreesboro
which appeared In our columns. Ever since the
commencement of the rebellion, our correspon-
dents, who take their notes. like Mr.. Shanks, on
the battle field, in the midst of danger, have
furnished us with accounts of the different
battles which surpass all previous efforts Of the
kind either in this country or abroad. The last
letter of Mr.. Shanks, which we refer to above,
we shall publish in full, with the accompanying
maps, in the WEEKLY HERALD, to appear on
Saturday. Our edition Of yesterday was early
exhausted; and there are thousands desirous of
preserving this most eloquent recital of a great
battle, forming an important episode in the his
tory Of this rebellion.

he might receive less monthly wages, but where
he would have his grog. The men who have
thus been prevented from re-cnlsting are the
old standbys Of the service the men gene

minor positions responsibility on board ship,
and their loss Is now severely felt by the
officers, who are obliged TO take new hands to

repealed the difficulty in procuring seamen
would at once be removed, and less intoxica-
tion be seen among sailors on shore. When an
evil cannot be abolished it should be regu-

TIE NEWSPAPERS AND OUR MILITARY AND NAvAl
and in the whole matter Of praise to men who
have served the country well, the newspapers
generally are not o complete incarnation of
/" even handed justice" Doubtless in some
cases they are partial; but in other cases they
get the appearance Of partiality of which
they are perfectly innocent. Certain of our
heroes possess clearer ideas Of the origin and
tenure Of popular favor than others do, and
make the most OF their knowledge. They have
served political apprenticeship, and know how
to keep themselves before the people by the
newspapers principally, but otherwise also

And the last are often the best men. Battles

the names of the men who fought them never
been publicly heard in.connection with those
battles; and, on the other hand, there are men,
even in our choice Army Of the Potomac, who
have gone to high positions without any
achievements Of their own, and with even the
charge of cowardice against them. Indiscrimi-
nate fulsome and continual newspaper
praise has done II all. These are the extremes
in either direction, and aside from these there
are men who have done very we'll, who have
earned honorable names in . noble way, and Of
whom the papers talk with persistency that
is, to say the least, unjust to the many other
brave men who have done equally well. How
much and how continually, for instance, have
the people heard Of General Sicklcs through
the papers. No doubt he deserves all the praise
that has been given to him; but one might al
most suppose there was no other gallant man
in our armies. Admiral Fsrragut is an

OUR CRY DEMooRAoY.-In compelling the
Tammany and Mozart delegations to occu.
py one bed at the late State Convention,
the Albany Regency were only pursuing
their usual tactics. By this fusion all issues
Of principle wers to be avoided, and the
war democrats of the Wigwam were to be
forced into cohabitation with the peace squaws
Of the Mozart lodges. The result is as
might have been expected from such compul-
sorry nuptials. The bridegrooms are reluctant
and the brides in state of rebellion Even
the '"big bed Of Ware" that largest and strong
est of historical couches, could scarcely find
room within its sides or strength enough in its
giant posts to sustain the wranglings and fierce
contests OF the couples thus unhappily mated
There is row of the tallest kind in the family,
and the prospects are that before November
next the hymenial rites celebrated by tho Very
Reverend Dean Richmond, assisted by Father
Peter Cagger, may be declared null and void
on the ground of "incompatibility of temper"
To such a result, as friends of the more
honest war democracy, we look forward with
pleasure. Coalitions, with an overwhelming
the class OF candidates they select. Any man
placed in nomination is sure of success; and
thus that healthy competition, which of neces-
sity puts forward its best and strongest repre-
sentative men as candidates. is done away with.
Last year we had a coalition Of our city demo-
cracy, and the result was the election of the
coalition ticket by majority of over thirty
thousand--the Tammany men taking the nomi-
nations for Comptroller, Supervisor, thres
members of Congress and nine Assembymen,
while the Mozarters carried off the Surrogate,
Corporation Counsel, two Congressman and
eight representatives in the Assembly. To this
division Of the spoIs, and to this only, did that
coalition amount. The moment the elections
were over, Mozart returned to Its wallow in the
Dismal Swamp Of copperhead sympathy, while
the Tammanyites, apparently more wise and
patriotic, commenced organizing for "a more
vigorous prosecution Of the war;"
We are again threatened with repetition Of
this farce, but warn the stage managers on both
sides that such surprises" cannot be twice sue
cessful. If Tammany be honest in its profes-
sions Of supreme devotion to the best interests
of the country, let it at once, and in decided
action as we'll as language, place itself on the
national platform and in q position to vindicate
in full its avowed principles. Let this be done,
and there will be no more apathy as to aAe local
aspects Of the approaching election Let it
bring forward as its candidates snly well
known and thoroughly sound democrats, and
there can be no such word as fail in its lexicon.
With a ticket rnads, nm discrimina tinulv nf hon.
est, active, loyal and approved democrats, the
Old Wigwam will, beyond doubt, regain in the
approaching contest all its former prestige as
the great representative organ Of the CONNER
cial metropolis Of the Union Its leading men
are alive to the fact that there can be no politi-
cal hereafter for those who array themselves
