Lee and I often tklk' d over diffewnt plans for an agressJvo fall cam paign. I uied upon hiia the reinforcement of Itragj;, aud tho ;jj.eiior chance of winning a decisive victory iii the west. He did not approve of it, tut decided to iuak anollmr advance info Maryland and PcntuiyL vauia. I wan Ko much iuiirepaod witli tko idua of making an effort that fall to tiKunfui th battle ground from tlio east to the went that I wrote a lotter to Mr. Seddene, necretary of s,;tr. giving my vicwu in relation to Htieli a movo ui. nt. hhortlr after this Ccticral Loo went to I'.ichnioiid, and a few days after I received a tiote from him directing me lo got iny corps) in readinortH for another advance north, and abo to have Hill and K well's cairns prepavod for the march. I replied to linn that my command was ready, and that I had given tho nocounary iiiHtructioiia to Hill and Kwell to get their troops and transportation re.tdy. In this letter I renewed the argument that I had mado to him personally againat making another cam paign into Pennsylvania that year. I urged that if he waa ntroug euough to movo north again, he waa strong enough at leant to act on the defensive where , he was, and eparo the reinforcements necessary to Will a b weeping victory over ItottocrauH. I presented to bim the certainty of bin having to with draw from Pennsvlvaaia on account of the latenefes of tho , season at which he would find himself on Northern soil. even if the enemy did not drive him back. I also diroctod hie attention to tho fact that Ilosecrans was pushing toward Georgia, aud if he should succeed iu marching through that state the Confederacy would he virtually dead. A fow days Inter I received a note in reply to mine, requesting mo to get two dirisiotis of my corps in readiuess to move west General Leo soon returned from Richmond to hia head quarters, and we had a long, earnest talk over the effort to be made to force and win a great battle in the west ; or I might say to transfer the battle ground of that year from Virginia to Tennessee, and even to the Ohio, if we were as successful as I hoped we would be. I ex pressed to bim great concern lest Bragg should tail to follow up with energy any success we might gain, lie replied that both President Davis and himself bad anticipated this sug gestion and that orders had gone to Bragg that shoiHd lie wiu a victory ho must follow it tip with great vigor. I was at General Ieo'e headquarters or he at miue cery day duriDg the short time it took to get Hood's and Mc Law's divisions of my corps, about 12,000 men, in readiness to move wst by raiL After he had decided to send reinforcements ho was much inter oh ted in the movement, aud we talked about it nioro or less every day. Time and again he would say: 'General, we must have a great victory out there. Tho success of our cause depends upon it We need only inflict one great disaster upon the Federal army to recover everything that has been lost' The morning my troops were loaded on tho cars, ami I was about to start, I rode over to General Lee's headquarters to bid him good by. We had a hurried but earuest talk, shook hands, and parted. As I walked out of his headquarters he followed me. Wheu I put my foot in the stirrup to mount rsy horse he put one hand upon the animal's mane and the other on my shoulder, and, looking me square in the face, said, with great earnestness: 'Cjenerai. you must Lsat U.ose people out there.' M withdrew my foot from I he stirrup, and, turaioff-towara bim, said: "General Lee, Kosecrans shall be beaten if I live, but I would not sacrifice life. I would not part with a single man of my command to simply gain a victory. It is worthless to us unless it be folleweu up with such enercrv as to crush the. Federal force we attack. I hope you will instruct General Bragg to let nothing prevent his pushing ijosecraus to the wall after he has beaten him upon the field.' 'aucii orders tiave already gone to mux. was Gen. Ie's response, ' and I assure you they shall be repeated.' "I then tunned, mounted my horse, when he shook me warmly by the hand and we parted. I do not tlunk I ever saw him look more iu oar nee t in his life than he did cn that morning. It was a long ride to Chattanooga, and Brajru's position was changed before f reached him ; out I finally arrived at llingxold, on my way to Chickamauga, on the 19th of Septem ber. Three brierades of my command had reached the battle-field that day. Tho horses that belonged to my staff officers were got oS the cars as soon as possible, and, with hit staff, I pnshed rapidly forward for Bragg's headquarters. My troops were unloaded as fast as they could be got off the cars, and fol lowed me. I crossed at Alexander's bridge, and reached Bragg about 11 o'clock at night I met Gen. Polk along the road. He had received his instructions for the coming battle, and was on his way to his headquarters to rest When I arrived at the headquarters of the army, Gen. Bragg went over with me his plan of battle. He had divided his army into two wings. Polk was to command the right and I tbe left His first point of attack was for Polk to strike Thomas, break his line and then wheel to the left Each division was to do the same as the fighting came to them, the whole army having for a pivot the left of my line at .Lee and uoraon's mills on tne nver. Polk was to attack at daylight, he said, and I was not to take up the fighting until he had broken the line, and each division to my right had beaten the enemy in its front, and swung to the left, in accordance with his plana. I left his headquarters shortly after midnight, and rode out to where I expected my lines would be formed, and laid down for a few mo ments' rest I was on my horse at daylight, putting my troops in position and carefully in specting my line. Polk did not attack at the hour Bragg said he wtuld. The gray of the morning gave way to broad daylight, the sun even arose, and yet there were no signs of bat tle. I suppose it was between 9 and 10 o'clock before Polk's artillery announced that he had begun the assault I believe I waited nearly two hours for the fighting to approach my line, but, finding that Polk waa not likely to break Thomas, I seat a staff officer to Bragg with the suggestion that I had better see if 1 could not force the line, as Polk did not seem to be able to turn the left he had expected. Bragg re plied that 1 oould make the attack. BREAKING THE LINES. "I moved my troops into position for the as- aault with giaat care. I massed five brigades in column by brigades at half distance, and seat. them forward under the leadership of Hood. In other words, Hoed had my whole force, with tbe exception of Bnckncr'arreserves, acainet the Federal Dositiao. J ftt sml in teract in our winning the battle of Chlcla mauga. I had promised Gen. Lee that I woMi do my share toward gaining a victory here, au I never remember to have taken gTeatei chances in a battle than in directing this charRt gainst Rosecrana. He and I had graduated it the same das at West Point, and wero friend: In our boyh.od and early army life. Ha was i good soldier and a good man. I have read k bis report, a well as in the stories of this bat tle that hare boeu written from time to time, thit my success in breaking his line and in driving MoCook and Crittenden from the field, is attributed to Wood's action in withdrawing hia two brigades from tba Federal, line aboat the lime I started forward to the r.ssanlt 1 Th - success of my attack on Bosecrans did not by UUMW.4SVijaBJlB .Stood" miaUa Unmoor of men and the "cnliar formation of the foreo tbat'laoot against tho Federal liuo in this little, could, and would have carried any position except a strongly fortified one. Th action of his sirborsunates and tho movement of Wood in and ont of tho line may have made the victory easier, but Ilosocraaa' lins eon Id never have wltliatood tho force of tho anaault 1 sent against it that day, no matter bow well Ium r liuis had been observed or hia order obeyed.

He waa locking for me, and as lie saw mo he rode up and said : " 'General, Gen. Hood is killed, my horse has boeu shot under me, and my brigade is g.me. I have lost every man.' 'General, don't you tliink you cculd i.d a singlo lnan'i" I replied. "Yes, I suppose I might find ono,' he said "General Benuing, 'this i Georgia boil; jour tiome and mine. There is no better place for you and I to make a stand than on tho Boil of our own State. You go and find ono man and tome back here to me, and let us make a final stand together right here. My words and man ner had completely restored his self -possession, and he rode away as fast as ho could on the old artillery horse be had taken in the place of the finer animal that had beon kilkd. in loss thau half an hour he rode back with his brigade reformed, ready for another charge. " TUE FOsAL ASSAULT. "Wlien did you begin to m-ik j (ho final m&vs on Thomas:"1' "After MeCoc-k and CiiiU-iiden had been driven fiom the field, and their troops had been pushed through the ;ap at MiHsionary ridge, I rovorsed Braggs otdcr of battle aud wheeled to the right to envi'Uipo Thomas. Tho movemeilla that follow t J my change of Bratrg's line- of battlo 1 ;.,ave you further down the road." 1 wish time and ? &oe wotdd permit mo to record all the details Gen. Longstreet guye of the battlo hero as we lodo over the field. Not far from the place wuv-v.- he told the story about Gen. Benuing we e.iine upon the Dyer bouse, and stopped for dinner 'Th.i house was. late on Sunday, at times in the focus of the battlo, and not far from it Longstreet formed his troops for the final attack upon Thomas. The few fields and tho woods not far from the house still bear the Bears of the fight Here aud there little stones have been erected to Bhow where some officer or soldier fell during this conflict At the edxo of a pine tlucket on the brow of a hill not a half a niiie from the trout of the house, a rude headstone stands, upon which is recorded tho fact that biity-four lieiituckians are buried there. There are other evidences of the battle all round. Treia that have been cut off by ar tillery shote or marred by musket balls. The Widow Glenti's house, then Bosecrans'. head quarters no longer stands, but there have been few oth&r changes s.uce those days. It is not far J'rom Dyer's to the nodgraes house, where, before dinner, we rode to inspect that aud other portions of the battlefield. We easily found the little log house upon the hill, with shade-trees ' in front, under which Thomas had hi bead-quarters during Sunday's fight. Gene ral Longstreet took a seat on the'little eheif nude bv the roots cf a great oak tiee, the largest in th yard. I reckon lhoin-i- cat cn that very seat, Gen eral, tho dav you all were after hiin,3 said eid Mr. iir.odgra-d as General Longstreet seated Liiu; elf at the foot ci the tree. '-Not many men would have held ou here as Thomas did. There have been few, if any, more dramatic incidents in war than the stub lorn stand of ThoniHa epeu this hilt He was very badly whipped, aud kuew it, yet Le took Ida chalices c: getting tciniorctiments, or of holding ou until the friendly darkness would trive him a chance to escapo. It wasqsnto late, after Bragg refused to allow zae ts flank his position, before our line was ready for the final assault upon him. Steedinan's fight with Ben uing delayed us somewhat and it was nearly dark before we reached the vital point of Thomas' position. N ight came on just as we did, and the darkness gave him au opportunity to slip away to Bos3vilie, and Bragg did .not have the spirit to follow him. Thomas' stand at Chickamauga was one of those grand inci dents of war like keading a forlorn, hope. - Aa accident made it successful, but a man had to have great nerve to take tho chances." Why cud Bragg bring ou the battle cz tba 19th with only 55, COO men wh'en he knew ' that yon were on your way to reinforce him, and he would have 70,000 next day'r "I do not know, and I have o cpinioa to express. That inquiry might be material if we had not won a complete victory on tho 20th. As we were successful, the important question is, why Bragg did not obey General Lee's instructions, follow op and get the fruits of the victory?" . ' "When I urged iiim toSio so, ha said It was dark and dangerous, as die Federals had prob ably only withdrawn to a' new position. I Tis ited him the morning of the 21st about day light ud found hiin still in doubt as to hU future movements. He had lost much by restinc over nicht. but might still have fol lowed up his advantage with success. 3e asked me what I thought he had better do. I advitn d him, as he was doubtful an to the policy of following up Bosecrans, that he had better march toward Nashville, threaten or de stroy his line oi column ni cation and leave the defeated army 10 follow him or take care of iteolf. He agreed that this would be a good move and ordered his troops to march toward the capital of Tennessee. Tbe most of his command had crossed the Chickamauga river and was pushing toward Nashville, when Bragg sent to me and said that he thought that it would have a good effect upon the southern people if it were known that his army was marching through Chattanooga with bands playing and banners flying in honor of the victory of Chickamauga; he, therefore, thought that he would turn back and march upon that place. I replied that I thought it would have a much better effect upon the Southern people if they knew that he was following up his victory by a tlank movement on Koescrans, now he had lost his opportunity to crush him while his army was demoralized. A short time after this Bragg issued orders turning his army toward Chattanooga, and it was not long before he was occupying Missionary ridge, and giving the Federal commander an opportunity to com bine all the force ho needed to attack us at a dozen diSTerent points at the same time, if he desired, and defeat us in detail. ' "It is due to the living and the dead that I should say that General Lee was very greatly disappointed that the result on this field was thrown awav. He had agreed with me that after Gettysburg there was little hone for the Confederate cause, unless wo could win a de cisive and overwhelming victory at some point He had finally but' reluctantly aban doned his plan to move back into Pennsyl vania that fall in order to fight a great battle in the west and try to gain the substantial suc cess he felt we so much needed. - We won the victory here, but reaped none of its fruits.

Cities Warmer Than tho Country. Those who happen to live a littla distance from the heat t cf a city, says science, must frequently h&va tsliced a lack of accord be tween the readings of Uir own standard ther mometers and the published observations of the Signal-3errioe observer of their locality. The reason of the diocord is plain; viz., tha perturbing action cf the heat which the city emits; and, howerer gratifying it may he to the outsider to find himself superior to the government observers, it is very little to the credit of tha weather bureau that this particu lar source of error was not long since recog nized and avoided. - The remarks cf Pro fessor Whitney on this subject, as applied to observations made at Loudon are pertinent and convincing. He Bays: 'it is a well-known fact, that cities aro considerably warmer than the 'more thinly in habited country, otherwise under similar cli matic eonditions. Statistics prove this to be true; and there could be no doubt that such would be the effect of an immense aggregation of population withia a limited space, even if there were no sliitisslfs bearing on this ques tion. Many inilhoee of tons of coal are burned in and about London during every year; and the whole mass of brick of which the city is built is heated during the entire winter, and more or less dozing tha summer, many degrees above the natural temperature. There can be no question that conditions such as are her indicated vitiate all observations made in or aear large cities, with a view to the deterniina tiou of any possible secular vai iation of tba temseratuxe.
