TITTSBURG LANDING, Gen. Sherman read asketch of the battle of Plttsburg Landing, illustrated by maps and charts distributed among the members, 1le said tho Cincinnati peonle were sntlsfied with the nccounts of the battle written on the spot,—viz : at ’aducah and Cairo; and he corrected some mistakes, It was not his purpose to give n narrative of the event, nor to revive controversies to which that great battle has glven rise, but simply to illustrate some of the minor phases of the battle. From hls very extensive read- Ing about this battle, and FROM HIS PERSONAL ODSERVATION, he concluderl that Gen, Badeau's condensed account in his military history was about ns near the exact truth as- history will lise reach, and that his own nccount witl do to stand by, being the exact truth from his stand point, 1o then passed to recounting & number of incidents of tho battle, one of which he had never scen recorded. 1twas that, at 4 o’clock on the first day, * [ ordered a Colonel to ne- cupy # wooded raying to keep the enemy out. The Colonel did not uuickly cateh the mepming or Know low to executo the movemnent, when Col.

Shermnn wonld havo end- ed there. Hlsonly referenceto the plan of the battle was as follows: Continuing, Gen. Sherman salil: “All re- liable necounts agreo that Gen, C.

Lhave never been in n attie but somebody was surprised, and finnd many persons wero surprlsed ut Shiloh, ut not onie who had not fair notice to by ready for anything, for cverything, that might happen, and the report that anybody was hnyunulm\ in bed has long since been oxploded, 'rentiss’ divislon and mine were in the extremo front.—werenll ready when the blow cume,—and all the others were behind us and had ample thne for preparation, ‘The shuple truth s, that we wore on the west bank of the Tennessee, With n purpose to nttack the snemy’s postuion ar Corinthy and Gen, Buell's ATMY OF THE OHIO was marching from Nushville to relnforce us; and that the Rebel Gen, Albert Siduey Jotnson resolved not to nwalt an attack at Corinth, but to attack us before Buall could . ften held responsiblo E OF THE FUGl- arrive, Hly army was divided into three corps, commanded by Polk, Diage, and Murdee, =~ with n reserve commanded by Breckinridge, Ills objoct wis * to cipture or destroy us before these relnforee monts coubd urrive, e falled in this niost sigunlly, aud therefore to us betonged the lctory,—n victory little apprecinted ot the and not fully comprehended to-day; but that victory wis one of the most mpor- want which has ever occurred on this con- tinent. 1t atssipated forever that nonsense of ene Southern jan wmumn{: " dozen Yunkees,” Itgaveus the prestige which we had only to follow up—ns we dld at Corinth, at Lukn, at Vicksburg, Chattanooga, Atlanta, Columbla, and LRalelgn, yen, to the end of thy War—to lusure ABSOLUTE HUCCESS.” Gen.

" o was loudly applded, after which a disposition manttested ftself among the members of the Seclety to Indulge In reminlseences, Gen, Bueklund sald that the first account of the Dattle of Shiloh which appeared in !xrlnt was that of * Agute hitslaw teld), which uppeared tn the Clnelnnati Guzette, It has slues been extonsively copied Into historles of the War, and yet there wits not n word of trath fn 1t Gen, Sherman observed, * Certainly not,— not oo word of truth, It was written 'at Cairo, and not on the ficld nt all,” G, Bucklund nddet thut © Agate's” ne- count stated thag his brignde wus surprised in theirtents.
