PROM L&OKOUT VALLEY. /
l[Correspon< ence Cincinnati Commercial.]
Camp 79th Regiment Ohio Volunteers Look
out Valley, Tenn., March 23, 1664.
Let people talk oi the “ Sonny South,” but let
them be here to-day aud all their ideas of the mild
climate that exists here will be dissipated, and
they will realize that the Ice King of the North
Visits even this part of the world. Just think,
snow fifteen inches deep,, and that in March!
It began snowing last night, and has been falling
ever since. The other day, in company with sev
eral omcers Of thn jegriment, I made a visit to the
top of Lookout MOuiiiali?. .
Gn top of the mountain is a small village named
Snmmertown, wh'ch was once a watering place,
andareFonfor the chivalry-of the South. It is
one oi the nicest little places J have seen, and there
is an air of neatness, not often met in this forsaken
country, about it. As you look toward the south,
Cbattanooea lies at the foot of the mountain, aud
from the foot & line of rebel earthworks stretches
across the valley to Mission Ridge at Bossvil e,
some five or six miles. When the rebels were in
possession of Lookout Mountain, Mission Ridge,
and these earthworks, Chattanooga was completely
surrounded, the river.beiDg on one side. It doe
seem truly astonishing that we ever succeeded in
ta king these important positions with so small an
effortand loss of lile.
The scenery about Lookout is sublime, and alt
attempts at its description would tail to convey an
adequate idea of the splendor there unfolded. The
mind Eeems too small to take in the picture spread
out before yon, and you turn, from it feeling your
own insignificance aiidtne greatness of the Creator.
Lookout Valley extends from Trenton, Ga., to
the Tennessee River, a distance of about twelve
mile&, and is noted for being one of the most fertile
regions in the State, producing large quantities ot'
wheat and corn. The people are more intelligent
than most ol those met with in this country, aud
ss a general thing, they are in the employ of the
Government, Jurnishing wood for the railroad, or
keeping the road in repair. The inhabitants be
long to that milk-and-water class, who make good
rebels or Union men, as circumstances require,
but as a general thing they make better rebels than
anything else. , .
