BEIEAGUERED CHATTA-
NOOGA.

From General Grants paper, in
the November Century, describing
the campaign and battle of Chatta-
nooga, we quote the following ac-
count of the condition of the supplies
that reached the beseiged city: "All
supplies for Rosecrans had to be
brought from Nashville. The rail-
road between this base and the army
was III possession of the government
up to Bridgeport, the point at which
| the road crosses to the south side of
the Tennessee River; but Bragg.
holding Lookout and Raccoon noun
talns west of Chattanooga, COM
manded the railroad, the river, and
| the shortest and the best wagon
roads both south and north of the
Tennessee. between Chattanooga
and Bridgeport. The distance be-
tween these two places is but twenty
six miles by rail; but owing to this
position of Bragg all supplies for
Rosecrans had to be hauled by a cir-
cuitous route, north of the river, and
over a mountainous country, increas-
ing the distance to over sixty miles.
This country afforded but little food
for his animals, near ten thousand
of which had already starved, and
none were left to draw single piece
of artillery or even the ambulances
to convey the sick. The men had
been on half rations of hard bread
for a considerable time, with but
few other supplies, except beef driv-
en- from Nashville across the country.
The region along the road became so
exhausted of food for the cattle that
by the time they reached Chatta-
nooga they were much in the condi-
ton of the few animals left alive
there, 'on the lift Indeed, tic
beef was so poor that the soldiers
were in the habit of saying, with a
faint righteousness. that they were
living on half rations of hard bread
and beef dried on the hoof.' Moth
ing could be transported but food,
and the troops were without sufficient
shoes or other clothing suitable for
the advancing season. What they
had was well worn. The fuel within
the federal lines was exhausted, even
to the stumps of trees. There were
no teams to draw it from the oppo-
site bank. where it was abundant.
The only means for supplying fuel,
for some time before my arrival, hao
been to cut trees from the north
bank of the river, at a considerable
distance up the stream, form RATS oi
it, and float it down with the cur
rent, effecting a landing on the soutl
side, within our lines, by the use OF
paddles or poles. 1t would then be
carried on the shoulders of the mer
to their camps"
Orleans County monitor. [volume] (Barton, Vt.) 1872-1953, 1885-11-09
TESTING A MANS COURAGE.

1t is the battlefield which tests a
mans courage. A regiment is in
line on the edge of a wood. Half a
mile away Is another wood. Between
the two is a meadow bare of the
slightest shelter. The regiment is
ordered to advance. As the line
moves out into the clear sunlight
every man will reason to himself:
1.-THE enemy is posted in the OPP
posite timber. Before we are half
way over he will open on us with
shell. One battery will cover our
re9imental front. This is my last
day!"
SO each man reasons, but every
face is sternly set to a 'front.' and
not foot misses step as the line
pushes across the meadow. The
shells come, and dozens of men are
blown to CORY fragments, but the
line moves on as before, and the
living reason:
"The fire will presently change
from shell to grape and canister,
and then l shall certainly be hit !"
The prediction is verified. Gaps
are opened through the double line,
but only to be closed again. The
regiment has lost its marching step,
and its lines are no longer perfect,
but the movement is still onward,
and men reason:
1.-The infantry are in support of
the battery. I have escaped shell
and grape, but when we come under
