A Western Man Grows IronIcal.

To THE EDITOR: i have just read the article
Of E. S. Coan, Signal Corps in THE NATIONAL
| TRIBUNE of Nov. ;, in which he speaks we'll of
the Army of the Potomac, and seems surprised
| that any one-and particularly man who was
| in the Army of the Cumherland-sh make
| any comparison as 10 the achievements of the
| two armies ] am surprised myself, for it was
| we'll understood that we in the Western armies
| occupied back seats.
We were a lot of unlettered and uncultured
| woodsmen from Wisconsin. Michigan and Min
| nosota, or worse, farmers from the prairies Of
| Ohio Indiana and Illinois, and even Iowa, to
| say nothing of Kentucky and Missouri.
Not much could be expected OF such material,
and of course, not much was accomplished.
| To be sure we went over or two hills to get
to Chattanooga, but the distance was not great,
| and / don't suppose we ever marched more
| than 60 miles in any one day.
Gems. Sherman, Logan, Thomas, Mcpherson
and others, when they wanted any extra Cxer-
| tion, or wanted us to charge the enemy, used
| to address us about as follows: Boys, / wish
| / had a brigade or two from the Army Of the
Potomac here, as / feel sure they could take
these works. / have grave doubts about your
ability to do it. However, as you are the only
material in the neighborhood upon which
can call, you must brace yourselves and do the
4; best you can"
, With such cheering words we would gather
| up such poor courage as we had, and rush in,
peil NEIL, WITHOUT any SUylc ana sometimes Tie
bright example of the grand Army of the Poto-
mac was so strong in its effect upon us that we
did fairly well. and the Johnnies (who, by the
way, had probably at some time met the Army
of the Potomac, and perhaps supposed we were
| something like them) would run from US, and a
few got injured.
In that same battle of Chickamauga to which
your correspondent refers, / remember Gen.
| Thomas, with the tears rolling down his cheeks
| bewaling his fate in having men who would
not stay by him, and wishing he had the
| Eleventh Corps with him. And often and often
have l heard men say that if they could be
transferred to the Army of the Potomac they
| would serve for less pay-and less clothing, even
| if that were possible. And when we retreated
| from Atlanta and fell back to Savannah, we
were rejoiced to think that we were going east ;
and then when were driven north up
| through South Carolina and North Carolina
we were sustained by the hope that perhaps we
might at last he allowed to join the Army of
the Potomac. And though we arrived late and
| the campaign was over, still we were permitted
to march through Washington, and perhaps
| some of us who may have drawn new clothing
or stolen some from the Potomac boys may
have been mistaken for part of the Army of
the Potomac-at least hope SO.
No, your correspondent is mistaken if he sup
poses that we of the Army of the Cumberland
would venture to compare ourselves with the
| grand old Army of the Potomac. | am so
ashamed of having been in the Western Army
that l will sign the fictitious name of-RoBERT

The Army of the Potomac at Malvern HILL

To THE EDITOR: was much interested in
reading "The Army of the Potomac" by L. S.
Coan, of the Signal Corps, and fully indorse
the same as perfectly true. l was for short
time a member of that grand old organization,
the Army of the Potomac, and feel an honest
pride in all its undertakings, for when they
were failures there was ample cause for the
same. Now, we all know that for some cause
which / am not able to explain, the first two
years of the war the commanders of the Army
of the Potomac did not succeed. Gen. McClel-
lan's campaign on the Peninsula was failure
Burnside's campaign was another, and Hook
er's another. But, aside from all this, l wish
to compare the fighting qualities of the two
armies-that of the West and that of the Poto-
mac.
will take for that purpose the battles of
Shiloh and of Malvern Hill Now any fair,
unprejudiced man will concede that Shiloh
was one of the hardest st-fought battles of the
Western army, and also believe the same man
will say, but for two incidcnts-the death of
Albert Sidney Johnston and the arrival of re-
endorsements for the Union army-the story of
the second day at Shiloh would have been a
black page in our history. Now the Union
army at Shiloh were prepared to attack the
Confederates in their intrenchments So we
may suppose they were also prepared for an at
tack from the enemy. They had met with no
reverses, were confident in themselves and
their commanders.
How different with the Army of the Poto-
mac at Malvern Hill. The soldiers all knew
how badly they had been defeated, fighting by
day and retreating by night; and what old
comrade does not know that under such cir
cumstances an army loses confidence both in
itself and in its commanders? But can the
Army Of the West show a better record than
was made by the Army of the Potomac at NAL
vern Hill? The flower of the Confederate
armies led by such men as Lee, Jackson, Long
street, and A. p. Hill, confident of success, vic
torious in nearly every fight before, were re-
peatediy hurled against the Union ranks only
to be driven back with terrible slaughter
claim that at no time during the war did men
show more courage or better fighting qualities
than they did at Malvern Hill. Now, l don't
wish to say one word to the disparagement Of
the Army of the West. l am as proud of its
achievements as any man can be. But 1 do
say that if the Army of the Potomac had been
given the same commanders that the Army Of
the West had, the history of the first two years
Of the war in Virginia would have been very
diferent.-CHAs. WATERHoUsE, Co. K, Goth

They Didn't Wear Red Brccefes or Paper Collars.

To THE EDITOR: In your last issue l see a
letter from Comrade E. A. Perry that l think is
an insult to every regiment that served in the
late war; and l think Comrade Perry ought to
be ashamed to write such letter. He says
that " no regiment ever stood on American soil
that came near equaling Duryea's Zouavcs in
size, intelligence, bravery or patriotism" Now,
l will venture to say that there was not a
regiment in Sherman's army but equalled
those famous Zouaves in bravery or patriotism !;
and for size, most of those regiments could not
boast of that quality, for they had been sadly
torn by shot and shell; but for intelligence, |
will say that most of them, at least knew
enough to keep their guns in shooting trim and
obey orders. 1t is true that they did not go
much on wide-legged red breeches or paper
collars and we seldom BACKED our shoes except
in swamps and mud holes; but when we started
for line sf works we always got there. 1t is
true that some of them did not know enough
to act as correspondents for the newspapers; !;
therefore, we did many things for which we
failed to get credit. But, taking everything in
consideration, think any regiment in Sher-
mans army was the equal Of Duryea's Zou-

Ohio Takes q Back Seat.

To THE EDITOR: In your issue of Oct.
Comrade A. j. Cullus, speaking of the Reunion
of the 54th Ohio says: There is one feature
of our regiment which we think cannot be
duplicated in the United States-that is, we
have on our rolls II pairs of brothers and one
trio" Co. E, 7th Pa. Cav.-the saber regiment
of the Army of the Cumberland-had on its

The duty of the troops while on the island
would have been light if performed in a healthy
climate by men provided with wholesome food,
but under the circumstances which have been
described it was severe. Drill occupied from
four TO six hours per day, and there was quite
. large amount of fatigue duty. The wharf
was at the west end and the camp of the sth
n. II. nearly one and a half miles toward
she east, the other regiments being camped
