How the Poys in Blue Won Fame on Lookout Mountain, THE MEMORABLE BATTLEFIELD REVISITED. Almost Fabulous Changes Which a Quarter of a Century Have Made in the Mist- Crowned Mount. Written for The Bew, 1 Your svecial correspondent, having set out Yo revisit former battlo fields by rail and “fight his battles o'er again” witha pen, can find no better place to begin the cam- pikn than the top of Lookout mountain. rom & military standpoint it is unstrate: gical to leave 0 much unconquered terri- tory behind him, but as his movements have created no suspicion as yet he prowmises to retake Nashville, Franklin and other strong points at such times as shall secm most con- venient “Looking as well as it ¢ mist, as it ap| vember CGione nooga, Gene ckward,” let us view Lookout n be seen through cnveloping peared on the morning of No- it s in command at Chatta- Hooker has brought from the Potomac the Eleven:h and Tweifth corps, and Geueral Sherman has come from the Mississippi with the Fifteenth corps.

But without stopping todebate the chances of success or failure, we cross Lookout creei a mile und a half from the end of the moun- tain and ascena the slope to make, if possi- ble, under cover of the fog, a secret side_cn- trance on the lofty stage of that splendid theater of war. After a hard the slope wo us a_cold, gray, upright ~wall of rock fifty fedt high. We caunot climb to it: but our assigned duty is to face to the left, and advance in line of battle along the western slope of tho mountain, to strike the enemy on the flank and in the rear, while Hooker seeks to forco his way into the clouds by an attack on his frout. Now, we appreciate tae military value of mist for an attacking force, for uota shot has been fired at us, aud our presence on the mountain is_outirely unsuspacted. It is as thongh the God of battles were sheltering us with o pillar of clouds through which the enemy could do us no harm. Hark, our artillery in Lookout valley and on Moceasin Point are beginning to piay the overturs of the coming fight. What music. if ore were uot quite so close to it! Sub-bassof sieze guns from Cameron Hill, trombone brass | pieces tooting from Moccasin point, parrotts pounding war drums in Lookout valtey, staceato notas of skirmishers, tromola shri of shell, ana when the confederato buttery | above our heads makes a fortissima. roply, it | sounds as though the enure orchestra of | Mars hud burstin fiinders and filled the entire vault of sky with soun But the artillery overtur slackenng, and the battle begins in down right carnest. | Judgiug from the sound of the contest, it is | evidently climbing up towar driven from rock to rock by the terrific pounding of climb see straight rising before up last stronghold of the enemy ! Because, we are only foot soldiers. We are almost as happy as angels, but we have 1o wings, and so cannot charge up a perpen- dicular wall of rock. Besides, our smmunition is exhausted. We started up the mountain this morning with little 1mpediments except men, and sixty doses of that strong madicine which Uncle Sam prescribes for secession fever. The men and muskets are h of them, but salpeter aud galena are’lack- ng. Then, too, it is late in the afternoon. We have been climbing like goats and fighting like lions for seven or eight hours, and a mile or more of mountain side, stilt strongly defended, lics between us and the ouly road by which we can reach the top of the mounta. We bave done enough al- ready to make Lookout forever memor ble, and we will complete our contract tomor~ row, if the enemy do not decamp during the night. And now, I havo too much regard for the comfort of our BEE brevets to ask them to bivouue up here on the “nose’ of the mou tain, on November 24, with stones for pilloy focks for mattresses, and with rocks which slope 50 much that you slip more than you sleep, with a strong northwest wind biowing and nothing but extreme weariness to epable one to exact any rest from the situation. Those of us who had to, did it; aud most of us *still live. As I pen these closing lines, on ful top of Lookout, taking mine inp,” and lifting my eyes at times to glanco at the grand scenery which lics be- neath and around me, my mind swings penc ulum-like through an'arc of more than a (uar- ter of & century and my thoughts fall into the rlythm of then and uow. the peace- “mine caso in Fighting Jo, ana il so, the timo has come for our flanking forco to show for what purpose they have done so much hard | climbingz. And lo, our opportunity has come! for, omerging from thick growtn of pines, the | loft Hank of the enemy’s works lies in plai view and so sitnated that wo can enfilade their line or even attack them in the rear. | "With such advantages in our favor formal command to charge is hardly neces sary, and down on them we rush like tho sweep of an avalancie, firing, volling, fixing | ayoncts us a final course if they shall linger long enough to try the tasts 7€ cold steel, but they ‘stuy not on the order of their going, but go at ouce.” | "Aud now the fog, which nad lifted a little {as” wo charged the works, wripped {friend and fos aliko ' its gray | folds, and for an hour or more tno | battlo may be imagined, out can hardly be | described.

Then, Lookout was a fortress. Now it is an incorporated town, with a mayor and five aldermen, many beautiful residences, a broad gauge track which elimbs the mountain by curves and zigzags, a cable line which goes directly up the slope and another in vrocess of con- struction, millions of money already ex- pended und millions more pledged to make this one of the most_attractive pleasure re sorts in the union. Then it took us seven hours to climb the mountain, in the face of the enemy. Now you can climb it i seven minutes by the cabld incline. n our bill of fare after tne battle was coffee, hardtack and salt pork, and ouz bed roo n was all out- doors. Now, on the highest part of tho mountain, stands Lookout inn, a splendid hotel which cost upwards of $i00,000, with 400 rooms, a noble dining room finished in oul, where hundreds of guests mignt sit down together—an ideal inn, the manager of which, alr. Charles Wilson, formerly of Boston, conbines the busiaess push of the north and the cordial hospitality of the south s0 perfectly thut his guests bless the day of their coming and regret the hour of their d parture. ‘Then our scanty supper was dis- turbed by the officious offers of confederate sharpshooters to settlo our coffee with lead.

Osana, June 5.—To the Editor of Tue Bre: Will you please afford me spaco in your columas for the following: In defense of the late Madame Helea Pe- trowna Blavatsky I would like to state that every attack made against her character is false and groundless. What 1s her alleged crime? or what did she do, that such men as John C. Bundy, Elliott Coues and others are trying to ruin her repu- tation! Hor offense is in proclaiming the truth as she saw it. Her motto always has been, and is, *There is nothing higher than wruth.” Every truth-loving man or woman who will investigate her doctrines must admit that her teachings are of the purest. They briefly are: Man, know thyself, purify yourself, subdue your lower animal’ nature, live up to vour higher self, purify your thougnts, ive for others rather tha ior seif. The objects of the society sha founded, worked and lived for, are as follows 1. To form a nuculus of a universal brother- ti00d of humauity without distinction of race- creed or color. 2. To promote tho study of Aryan and | other eastern litgratures, religions and sciences and demonstrats the importance of that study. 3. To investigate unexplained laws of na- ure and the pyschieal powers latent in man. Now I would like 40 ask every reader of Cuk Bee if therw is anythiog wrong or fraudulent in her tgachings and ambitions! Herself she always: ignored. For humanity she aloue labored angd toiled until she di And now, after shabas left this earth and an no longer dofund herself, men like the above mentioned,,whom she never harmed, attack her most merailessly and try to slander ber in the eves of (the world. Further I defy anyono to prove that she ever asked financiak:relief of any theosophist for herself. ‘Should any of tha readers of this like to hear aay more abeaf theosophy I would state that every Sundayset 4 p. m., the Theo- sophical soviety haswicetings at the ironzer block, opposite postaftice, whero all questions of visitors will be cheer fully ausw el R O.
