As I wrote you twe days ago, we left Grand Junc- tion early on the morning of the 28th, and took our line of march for Holly Springs, As- in the previous demonstration in this direction, Colone, Leo, with his cavalry brigade, consisting of the ‘Third Michigan cavalry, Seventh Kansas, Fourth Mlmois, & battalion of the Second fowa cavalry, anda section of the Third Micbigan battery, took the advance, Following his command was MeArthur’s brigade, and General Ha. toilt n with the left wing of the army. Our march until we re Hndsonvfle, a small village ten miles norty ‘TT Holly Springs, was characterized by no incident de. sorving of special hse Just a8 we rose to the brow of the hill, npon wich the village t# situated, we came tpon two rebel patrols,and a squad was dotailed to at, tempt their capture. They were better mounted than we were and effected their escape. It had beon our intention to encam» for the night on the banks of the Coldwater, and march into wwn just at daybreak, in the expectation of capturing a portion of Jackson's cavalry, who were known to be in Holly Borings. The escape of tho pickets, however, disarranged Colonel Lee's plang, and he eoncluded to occupy the vil- Inge Friday night. We reached the old breastworks, a inile (rom the court honse, abeut four in the afternoon, and meeting here no resistance pushed rapidly forward, When within a quarter of a mile from our destination we saw drawn up in tino of battle perhaps a hundred men, who were evidently prepared to dispute | our entrance. Colonel Toe ordered two companios for- ward, dismounted, and deploved them as ekirmishers, A few volleys wero fired, and a charge by a mounted com- lorod, but theenemy ran, pursued by several | squadrons of cavalry, through the sireeta and beyond the town to the brow of @hill,a milo and a half distamt, on the road to Abbeville, The roldiers were then ordered back, Lieutenant Stoddard, of the Second Iowa, appointed Provost Marshal, and Sycperaiene made to 1 te Yankee government, ory road leading. into town was | first strongly pick: ted, led to vinit | ud partion tho dwellings and stables to prisoners and horses.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD, Heapquarrens, DePARrMeNT OF THR TEN B~ LaGrancx, Tenn., Nov. 17, 1862. ‘The author of a bovk entitiod airwen Months in the Rebel Army,’ speaking of the battie of Shitoh, saya:— While it is no part of my duty tn this narrative to cri- ticise military movements, and especially those of the Union forces, Igmay stave that the vata! absence of cavalry pickets from General Grant's camp was & matter of per- foct amazement to the rebel officers There wore abso- lutely none on’Granv’s let, where Generai Breckinridge’s divis.on was meeting him, so that we were able wo come up within hearing of their drums entirely uvpereeived rhe Southern geaerais always kept cavalry pickets vut for miles, even when no enemy was supposed ty be within & day's marclrof them. ‘The infantry pickets of Grant's sorces were Not above three-iourths of a mile from his ad- vance cacaps, and they were too few to make aay roalst. ance. With these (acts all made known to our beadquar- ters on S.turday evening, our forces were arranged for batde with the certaiuty ofa surprise, and almost the aesurance of a vjclury. On the strength of this exparte stateméat, a savaye re. view appears in the New York Times, attributing the success Of our arms at Shiloh to “Providence, Buell and the gunboats,” and recommanding that “General Grant should be hun, To appease the appetite of the bloodthirsty and oredu- ‘ous reviewer, as well as to quiet the norves of sundry other professors of the art and ecience of war (female as well a8 male), permit me the use of your jouraul to assure them that the author of this “very interesting book’? is very much mistaken in Kis eriticism of military mowe ments connected with the battie of Shiloh, as can be easily domenstrated: — First—Our videttes (cavalry pickets), on Thuraday, three daye before the battle, were full five miles in tront ofour line, and were attacked and driven in upon our pickets (infantry) by the enemy's advance cavalry, aud ‘then fell back to the oxtreme rear, he total absence of cavalry pickets from General Grant's camp” ought not, thereiore, to have been “a mat- ter of periect amazement” to the author, aud would not, to any of a the service at all acquainted with she relations to exch other of videttes, pickets and guar particularly when attacked by superior numbers, unabie to Bout their ground. v Second—There is au abundanco of proof in the official reports of the battle of Shiloh (seo Executive Document, No. 66, Thiety-seventh Congress, second session) to show that our pickets were over @ mile in front of our “alvance camps.” T make but ope extract, and that from the official report of Genera W.

W. T. BUERMAN, Brigadier General, &c. Third—Much has been written and eald by persons ig- norant of the sitration about onr forces being “au 7 the first day of the battie of Shiloh, itis hard to cvnceive of a greater military absurdity whou skirmishing between the pickets had been going op three days preceding tho battle. But for the boggy con- dition of the roads between Corinth and Shiloh meeting. house, which greatly retarded the movements of enemy, the battls would audaubtedly have commenced the preceding 'y, despite all General Grant's on- deavore to siave it off till Buell’s reinforcemeuts, several days overdue, could arrive. t is incredible, woo, the oredence given at this late day tothe cries of ‘surprise, “cut to pieces,” “bayoneted in our beds,’ which were sown broadcast over the land, when vificers, whose competency to judge and whose reputation for veracity dare not be questioned, have 60 often asserted, in letters to their (riends, that these lying charges had their origin with the eight thousand craven. hearted wretches (of im undue proportion) who de- ferted their comrades to seek saiety bebind the river vin at psig Landing, during the first day’s © disgraceful conduct of these cowards was the only sus prise”? experienced at the battle of Shiloh. The anthor, in a subsequent paragraph, pute down tho maximum Confederate force at 45,000, Admicting this estimate to be correct, it was 15,000 more than had Genoral Grant the first dly, whose entire effective force was but a fraction less than'30,000, as the consolidated morving ge will show. Deduct from this the 8,000 belind the bluff, and it leaves him with 22,000, with whom he held 45,000 at bay on tho memora- bie 6th of April, 1862.
