SOME VAJO As reeards the lighting done at point, we leel that the General has on a good (leal of varnish, indeed it much at variance with our recollection, it is with some hesitancy that we vectu disngree with him. He states he was in ot Company l>, that "a line ol mounted uilstiers attacked our position,'' were t repulsed, etc. We belonged to Cornpan were on the line, and think the General i be mistaken. We have no recollectlo any four footed animal appearing in front, not even the proverbial "molly-coi tail," which was so commonly "jumped by skirmish line, (often causing the "1 yell," and the exclamation, "run mollj ton-tail, II 1 hadn't a reputation at si I would run loo!") We do not recall seeing Gen. Butler on part of (lie line, but remember distinct! Capt. Farley passiug iu our rear, in se of (jien. Butler. Jesse Adams, of Colun had wounded a Federal In ills front, w attracted Farley's attention. We have n collection of tils dashing through the iin Company G, firing at the enemy. We suspect we know more about thej whom Gen. Butler credits Turner with ing killed, tha.i the General does, and w take pleasure in informing him who too his spurs the next day, and used t through the balance of the war, and nj years afterwards, and who saw nothing t dicate that he was a "mounted officer." A as we know, not a man ou our skirmish J received a scratch on that day, and no F? al killed in our front to our knowledgi cept the Fayette Turner's man. Wilh tin union we held, free from the danger of ct ry and artillery .(on account of the woods could and would have put up a good fl had we been given the chance. The da lay in the road where Hampton was, wit protection on Ills right. Gregg soon fc the weak spot, ainl sent a Federal Regin tgalnst him, which swept him oft' the like chatt before the wind, passing so fi 3Ur rear as almost reach our "led hon jauslng confusion more easily imagined t iescrlued.

THAT WOUNDED GENERAL ] I.Kit PASSED OVKK THE TKOOI'S DEI HITTING IIIM. General Butler states lu Ills speech, "1 formed my own Keg I men t along the ' side of Richland creek." We saw nothlr my re-formed line, and so far as Compac is concerned, we leel sure he is mista After crossing the creek, we fell back in | jrder lu columus of lours. Home iJOu y beyond the creek, we came upon Gei Butler wounded by the shell which had | r-d over us. ile was carried aloug with ni Jlfllculty close by tbe side of our inoui Hue. While moving up the hill a few mo 3d Federals made a dash at the rear of ;olumn, where Gen. Butler was, Irom an jxpected quarter. They were turned ti md driveu oack. Many conflicting stories hitve been tud published about Gen. Butler's rem from the field, and we have also heard Lie I'tlU.V U III# CU11. 1UI BC1 \ rend9red. We make the above staten with emphasis, and among those who verify It urecommissioned ofllcers. JTRAKKK THAT BUTLEK SHOULD SAY It THINGS OK IIIS OI.D SOLDIERS. During the heated campaign last } while "courting" the old soldiers, Gen. ler said, ''soldiers blood is thicker than pc cal blood." But we submit, his action wards some of us, who differ with bin politics, does uot prove it. Strange it Is, deed, that Gen. Butler, should say so n: hard things of those who stood by hin dangers and privations, who did mucl make his name and fame, aud who havi ways delighted to honor and revere him. ail truth aud sincerity, we believe, his pa the Battle of Brandy Station was fougt less time than is required to read his ext ed speech. His fight was but as child's when compared with what occurred tw days later at Uppervtlle, iu holding Ash Gi^>, across the Blue Ridge, or Z\ days 1 at Gettysburg, during which time Gen. lost from his ranks, perhaps, uot less 1 30,000 men.
