iirri. Frofcssor Henry Coppee, Thll ideliihla:
Dear Sir: Id the Juno number of the I'nitrJ
Stair frtirt Matmint I flail a brief sketch of
ynAXAikDl-Oencral V. 8. Qraat, In which I sec
. you are likely to perpcuate an error, whloh
General Grant may not deem of iilll"int lm-
pnrtsncs to cirrict. To General Duell's nobis ,
ble, and gallant conduct yon attribute tbo Tan
that the disaster of April 0, at I'ittsljurg l.amlinir.
wh rcti iered, and made the rictorj of the lol
lowing day. As Ocneral Taylor li (aid Inliis
later dnyl to hare doubt d whether he mi at the
battle of Hum Vesta at all, on acc writ of the
many tlilrga having transpired there, aecordin
to the hiatorlan. which he did not we, ao I begin
to doubt whether I win at the battle of I'itubur i
Landing: of modern description, liut I was at
the battlct of April 6 and 7, H62 Gencr.il Onnt
rlkltid my diilsitm In person about 10 A. M.,
when the batlie laged fiercest. I was then on the
right.
After iome gonenil conversation, ho remarked
tLal I was doing right in stubbornly opposing the
progress of the enemy ; and, In answer to my In
quiry as to cartridges, told mo he had anticipated
their want, and glTcn orders accordingly ; he then
aid b:sprsence u aa more needed ororat tho
left. About 2 T. M. on the 6th, the enemy mute
rlslly slackened bis attack on me, and about 4 P
M. I delll eiatcly made a new line behind McV
ttitir's drill field, placing bsttcrla on chosen
gnurd, repelled easily a caalry attark, and
watched the cautious approach of the enemy's
lnf:mtry,tbat ncrer dislodged me tr- 1 w''ed
that Tmto' m - ol a bridge across Snak
cttek.Vy which we bad all day been expecting
the erptoach of Lew. Wallace's division from
Crump's I.BDdlng. About 6 1'. M. before the suu
set, General Grant came again to me, and after
kearrng my report of matters, explained to me
the situation of affairs on the left, which wero
not aa favorable. Mill the enemy had failed to
rcc h the landing of the boat.
.M'espreed that the enemy had expended the
fnrare .f his attack, and we estimated our loss,
and approximated our tbea strength, including
Lew. Wallace's fresh division, expected each
minute. He then ordered me to get all things
reany, and at daylight the next day to assume the
offensive. That was before (ieuural Unci I had
arrived, but be was known to be near at band.
General Knell's troops took no essential part In
the first day's fight, and Grant's army, though
collected together hastily, green as militia, some
regiments arriving without cartridges even, and
neaily all beaiing the dread sound of baitle for
the first time, bad successfully withstood and
repelled tbe first day's terrific onset of a superior
enimy, well commanded and well bandied. 1
know I bad orders from General Grant to assume
tbe offensive before I knew General H null was on
tbe west side of tbe Tennessee. 1 think General
lioell, Colonel Fry, and others of General Uuoll's
surl, rode np to where I was ahout sunset, about
tbe time General Grant was leaving me. General
llueil aaked me many questions, and got of ma a
mall map, which I had made tor my own use,
and told me that by da, light he could have eigh
teen thousand fresh men, which I know would
set le tbe na ter.
I understood Grant's forces were to advance on
the right if the Corinth road and Uucll'j on tho
left, and accordingly at daylight I advanced my
divi-ion by the flunk, tbe resistance being trivial,
np to the very spot where the day before the bit
tie Lfd been most severe, and then waited till
near Di on lor Buell's troops to get up abreast,
when tbe entire line advanced and recovered all
thi ground we bad ever held. I know that with
tbe exception of one or two struggles, the light
ing of April 7 was easy as compared with that of
Atril 0.
I never was disposed, nor am I now, to ques
tion anything done by General Iiuell and bis
army, and know that approaching onr iield of
battle from the rear, he encountered that sicken
ing crowd of laggards and fugitives that excised
bis contempt and that of his army, who never
gave full credit to those in the front Uric, who
did fight bard, who had, at 4 P. M., cheeked tbe
enemy, and were preparing the next day to as
sume the offensive. I remember the fact the
better from General Grant's anecdote of the
Donelsoa battle, which be told me then for the
first time that, at a certain period of tbe battle,
be saw that either side was ready to give way
if tbe other showed a bold. front, and he deter
mined to do that very thing, to advan e on tbe
enemy, when, as ha prognosticated, the enemy
turrtndered.
At 4 F. M. of Aprl 6, he thought tbe appear
antes the same, and he judged, with Lew. Wal
lace's fresh division, and such of our startled
troops as bad recovered their equilibrium, he
would be justified in dropping the defensive and
assuming the offensive in the morning. And, I
repeat, I received such orders before I knew
General Buell's troops were atthe river. I admit
that I was glad Iiuell was there, Decease I knew
bis troops were older than ours and bet'er sys
tematized and drilled, and his arrival ma le that
certain which before was uncertain. I have
heard this question much discussed, and must
ay that tbe officers of Buell's army dwelt too
much on tbe stampede of some of onr raw troops,
and gave ns too little credit for the fact that for
one whole day, weakened as we were by the
absenae of Buill's army, long expected, of Lew.
Wallace's Division, onlr four miles off, and of
tbe fugitives from our ranks, we had beaten off
onr assailants for tbe time. At the same time
our Army of the Tennessee have Indulged in
severe triticism at tbe slow aiqiroach of that
army which knew the danger that threatened us
from tbe concentrated armies of Johnston, Usau
regard, and Bragg, that lay at Corinth.
In a war like tula, where opportunities for per
sonal prowess are aa plenty aa blackberries, to
those who seek them at the front, all such crirui
natii ns should be frowned down ; and were it not
for ibe military character of your journal, 1
wou'd not venture to off er a correctiou to a very
poj ular error.
I will a 'so avail myself of this occasion to cor
net another very common mistake in attributing
to General Grant the selection of that battle-field.
It was chosen by that veteran soldier, Major
General Charles V. Smith, who ordered my divi
sion to discmburk there, und strike, for tbe
Charleston Railroad. This order was subse
quently nudtned.by bis ordurlng Ilurlhut's divi
sion to disembark there, and mine higher up the
Tennessee to the mouth of Yellow creek, to strike
the railroad at Burnsville. But floods prevented
our reatbing the railroad, when General Kmuh
ordered me in person also to disembark at l'itls.

It was General Smith who selected that field of
battle, und it was well chosen. Un auv other we
suie.y would have been overwhelmed, as b ith
LI k at d 8m.a creeks forred tbe enemy to on
fine his nut nirrjli to a direct front attack, which
new troops are tx tter qualified to resist than

All fbesc subordinate dispositions weie made by

If there weie any error in putting that army on
"the west sice of the Tennessee, exposed to the
superior force of the enemy also assembling at
Coriutttftbe mistake wan not General Gram's;
l, ut there was mistake. It was necessary last
combat, fierce and b.tter, tt lest tbe manhood
of tbe two aimies. should come oil. and thai was
good as any. it was not then a qne-lion of
military skill und strategv, but of courage aad
place:, and I am convinced that every life lost that
rim to us was ucceasarv : for otherwise atCorluth,
at Memphis, at Vicksburg, we would have found
Larder resistance, had we not shown our enemies
that, rude and untutored as we then were, we
could light a well as they.
Excuse so long a letter, which is very unusual
for iut ; but of conre my life is liuble to cease at

certain truths which are now beginnins: to pass

At the last sitting of the Paris Geographical
Society, M. Multe Brun read a letter be had re
ceived from M. liraduezoc, French Consul at
Sierra Leone, and which confirms the account of
the death of Jules' Gerard, tho lion killer, who
was diowned In attempting to cross the river
Joub.
He was born of poor parents at l'ignan, Var,
June 14, 1817, so that he was In his forty-eighth
year. Gerard was fond of sport from his youth ;
at ten he chased cats and monkeys, at sixteen bo
curried a rifle, and was a bit of a pugilist. He
was a volunteer for tho Algerian campaign in
1841, ai.d commenced the life of adventures
which has been terminated in so nntlmoly a
manner. He describes, in his well knowu work,
Is Tutur dt Lions, (18.37 8), bow it came to puss
that a poor dwarf of a creature like him, ventured
to declare war against the giant of the woods
"one against one chance for chance God alone
being a wime a of the fight." Not long after his
arrival at Bone, be heard of tbe terrible lion of
the Arel.iotia, which had committed unheard of
devastations among villagers and troops alike.
Said Gcrrd, magnanimously, "if it pleases Uad,
1 who ura not an Arab, w. U kill the lion, and he
ball not devour you any moie." Ilia heart, he
tells us. bounded for joy at tho coming light.
"Soon this all powerful lord, the terror of tbe
ccuntr.i, will blto the dust under tho ball of a
d g of a Christian." The villagers were Incredu
lous, ard Intimated to Jules, that, if ho killed
the Inn, they would kiss his fret and become
bis iluus; meanwhile they would mind then on a
husinris.
Of tl e twenty live lions which have fallen
victims to Gersrd's rifle, we are told appalling

A correspondent of the 'Vow supplies copies
of two 1 tiers from the Confederate Generul Lee,
which arc dated as far buck as 181-1. One of tbo
Utters is addressed to General Scott, aud con
tains General Lee's resignation of his commission
after service of a quarter of t century. The other,
address-d to a sister, enters more fully into the
feelings which dictated that step, and which ani
Dialed tbe Southern leaders at that time:"
Ari.inoton, Vtt., April 20, 18'il. General :
Since my interview with you on the 18th instant,
1 have felt that I ought not longer to retain my
commission in the aimy. I, therefore, tender my
ruignat.on, which I request you will recommend
for acceptance. It would have been presented at
once, but lor tne struggle it uas cost me to sepa
rate ui self from a service to which I have
di voted an the ist years or my lire, und all the
ability I possessed.
" Duiiug the whole of that time mors than
quarter of acentuiy I have experienced nothing
but kindness from my superiors, and the most
tordial friendship from my comrades. To no
tine, Generul, have I been ao much indebted as
to yourself lor uniform kiudueas and considera
tion, and it bas always been my ardent desire to
merit jour approbation. I shall carry to the
grave the most grulvful recollection of your
k'nl rritisidefatiiin.attd your name and fa-n will
aiwa-. s re O' ar lo me.
'Save In defense of my nstlve S'ate, I never
('csiie again to draw n.y sword, lis ploi'cdto
( ci pt my most esme-t wishes fur the contin
uance t your Imppiniss snd prosperity, an I bo
lieve me moat truly, mir, R. K. Ln.
