Col. BUTrRICK AND THE 39TH.-The Mil
waukee Sentinel Of yesterday, says : A
Memphis correspondent in yesterdays paper
spoke of Colonel Buttrick ordering thet Both
and 4lst Regis, which were under arms, to
fall back 10 the fort instead of going to the
front where the firing was, adding if he had
come to the rescue OF those engaged no pris-
oners would have been lost. Little impor-
lance of course will be attached to the com
ments of a commander who must know best
his duties and what the EFFICIENCY demanded.
Ihe following, however, from an account of
the whole affair in the Memphis Bulletin on
this particular point, will be interesting:
Col. Buttrick, hearing that the rebels
We're marching down the fernando road,
and also on Carr Avenue, ordered his bri-
gade to fall back towards the fort, fearing a
flank movement IN his position. The bri-
gade then fell back for short time, but a.
gain advanced to the fernando road. where
they found the cotton field. The both were
ordered In line on the left and the 41st on
the right, when ten companies of the 10th.
under command of Captains Madison and
hdWIShCe, were LnrOWD out as SklTmIShers
these advancing beyond the rebel battery,
which was stationed close to the road. The
18th, 40th and 41st lay in the cotton field
the shot and shell flying over and around
them thick and fast. The men behaved
nobiy, not man shrinking from his post"
