6 " FORREST OUTFOUGHT. BEATEN WITH ODDS IN HIS FAVOR AT PARKER’S CROSSROADS, TENN. Colonels Dunham and Fuller Send Him Flying from the Field—He Is Surprised and Vanquished and His Troops Stam- peded—I)aring and Pluck \Vin the Day. [Copyright by American Press Association] ORREST some— times met his match, and one such occasion was when he found his roadway blocked by an insignificant force at Parker’s Cross Roads, in . Tennessee, on the ’ 31st of December, 1862. The great cavalryman was returning f r o 111 his famous raid against the rail- roads supplying Grant’s army on the over- land march against Vicksburg—a raid which broke up the Union campaign com- pletely—and was aiming to reach Lexing- ton, Tenn, and recross the Tennessee river in time to elude the pursuers that were upon his track in numerous parties. As usual with him, he was aiming to seize the important point by “getting there first with the most men,” that being his maxim in war, but an Indiana colonel in com~ mand of four regiments sent out in pur- suit had had the pluck to act upon the first principle of the maxim and get there first, although he had less men than the foe he expected to engage. This oflicer, Col. Cyrus, L. Dunham, of the Fifticth Indiana, was marching with footsoldiers in pursuit of cavalry, but as the roads on which both parties moved converged there was a bare chance that some mishap to Forrest would reduce the inequality between horses’ legs and men’s, and Dunham pressed on, hoping for his one chance. His faith was rewarded, for For- rest lost one whole day and night by bad roads and broken bridges, and when he came in from the northwest toward the Lexington road he found his way disputed by a force" that he did not dream of as be- ing in the vicinity. Notwithstanding the fact that Dunham’s men had marched and countermarched since the raiders had en- tered West Tennessee, and were travel worn and weary, the Union command made twelve miles between 2 o’clock and dark on the 30th. During the night scouts brought word to Dunham-”s camp that Forrest’s whole command was four miles distant, and was on the road to Parker’s Cross Roads, five miles south of the respective camps, and the point where his escape was to be efiect- ed, if at all. The colonel now ordered out his men, sent word to his superior, Gen. J. C. Sullivan, who was following up with re-enforcements, that he would “coax or force a fight out of” Forrest in the morn- ing, and started for the cross roads. For— rest’s command was on the road early on the‘ 3lst, and on approaching the cross roads the advance was disputed by Dun- ham’s pickets. The raiders were handicapped by an im- mense wagon train laden with the fruits of their foray, but as that is part of the trade of raiding it was their business to de- fend it and to succeed in spite of it, or be judged wanting in the elements that’make true soldiers. Dunham pushed the skir- Inishing with great boldness. The enemy appeared in detached parties, and each one of these was attacked and forced back up the main body. Meanwhile Dunham’s own force was put in position on a ridge half a mile in rear of his skirmishers. The ridge, called Red Mound, covered the cross roads and the approaches from Forrest’s position. The Confederate leader began the real fighting by artillery fire, and under cover of it attempt-ed to move his men out by the flank and avoid the fight. To prevent this Dunham threw out aline perpendicular to the first, forming an L, and opened with shells on the retreating men. The fire was very feeble, however, and to his amazement the plucky colonel, who had hazarded so much upon boldness, found that the artillery ammunition was short, and only two pieces out of six on the field could be engaged. “Then this state of things was reported by the com— mander of'the artillery to Dunham the lat— ter, as he says in his report, directed that officer to do the best he could with his pieces, while he himself turned away to do the best he could without them. The fire of the Confederate artillery was on the contrary very severe, and inflicted great damage on Dunham’s men, and he decided to silence it by a desperate charge. Just as the column was ready to move a new danger changed the current of battle. One of Forrest’s battalions under Col. T. A. Napier charged boldly up in the Union front, and at the same moment Forrest led three regiments around Dunham’s right flank and charged squarely upon his rear parallel to the lines which were already fighting at close quarters. The brave colonel was now between two fires. Again his battle genius was equal to that of the redoubtable warrior pitted against him. On one occasion Forrest was fighting a enemy in front, and an aid rode up and told him excitedly that there was another enemy moving up in. his rear. “Well,” said he calmly, “when we turn around won’t we be on their rar?” This very evident conclusion came to Dunham’s mind, and be promptly faced his men about and charged bayonets upon the onrushing cavalry. The Confederate line was pierced and broken and went Off in confusion. The men on Dunham’s front thought the day was lost and abandoned the artillery, the horses having been shot down by Dunham’s men. This made the new front permanent, and the ridge of TUE SURPRISE. Red Mound was still the Union position with the facings reversed. The Confeder- ate loss had been heavy; Col. Napier had been killed in his charge, and' his com— mand, including their leader, Maj. Cox, and 250 men, were made prisoners. For— rest halted to reorganize and take his bear- ings. Dunham was outnumbered and was in a tight place, for Forrest’s flank movement had changed the situation so that the Con- NORWALK GAZETTE} WEDNESDAY JULY .16 [890. l federates were between him and his base and his supports. The latter, which he had summoned to his aid by the night dispatch to Gen. Sullivan at Huntington, were pressing on to his assistance. If he could hold on until their arrival he could save his brave command. If not, Forrest would score another victory, although one dearly bought. The nearest Union supports were the Thirty-ninth and Twenty-seventh Ohio in- fantry, under Col. John W. Fuller, which only left Huntington at the time Forrest and Dunham clinched for the fray that morning. After. marching some hours Fuller got within hearing of the battle, there to be overtaken by an order from Gen. Sullivan, who was behind him, to halt for an hour and a half. Instead of obeying he pressed on with all speed, im— itating Col. Dunham in his battle zeal. and illustrating again the important maxim of war, “When in doubt go ahead.” He was within two miles of the field when an orderly galloped from the rear to the head of column with a message from Gen. Sulli— van, who was now with the rear guard three miles back, directing a halt until the general should reach the front. At the same time one of Fuller’s aids came in from the direction of the battle- field and reported the enemy in full force between Dunham’s command and the re- euforcements. Once more there was doubt whether to obey orders and halt or go on and fight. He went ahead, and the result cannot be told better than in the words of Gen. Forrest himself. After describing the main fighting he says in his official re- port: “Thirty minutes more would have given us the fight, when to my surprise and astonishment a fire was opened on us in our rear and the enemy in heavy force advanced on us. Knowing that Iliad four companies at Clarksburg, seven miles from us on the Huntington road, I could not believe they were Federals until I rode myself into their lines. The heavy fire of their infantry, unexpected and unlocked for by all, caused a stampede of horses be- longing to my dismounted men who were following up and driving the enemy be- fore them. They also killed or crippled many of the horses attached to our caissons and reserved guns.” The surprise was as complete as Gen. Forrest indicates. The first volley of the Twenty-seventh Ohio unhorsed several of the body guard of Forrest, and his adjutant general was made prisoner. Forrest him— self literally ran away from his comrades, and when halted by a Union officer with a demand for surrender he answered coolly, “I have done so some time ago, and am collecting my command to surrender in due form.” By this ruse he escaped. Fuller’s men had made seven miles in the last hour and a half of march, and arrived at double quick on the field. They seized 300 horses belonging to Forrest, and recapt- ured one cannon and a wagon train that Forrest had taken from Dunham when he swooped in upon the Union rear. The turn of afiairs brought about by Col. Fuller’s promptness was no more of a surprise to Forrest than it was relief to Dunham. After the repulse of Forrest’s charge in the rear the Union troops could do no more than stand and see themselves be- in g hemmed in. Their artillery was useless, their numbers inferior and their road back toward their comrades was closed. As soon as Forrest could organize after his bloody repulse he attempted his favorite game, when ’all else failed, of blufling his enemy. One of his aids sought out. Col. Dunham ‘ and said: “The general (Forrest) under- stands that you have surrendered.” “The general is mistaken. IVe have never thought of surrendering.” answered Dun- ham. After a short parley the aid re— turned to Gen. Forrest, and soon came back with the message, “The general demands an unconditional surrender,” to which Dunham replied, “Give my compliments to the general and tell him I never surrend- er. If he thinks he can take me he can come and try.” At the moment of this defiant reply Dun- l ham was enveloped on three sides, and For- I rest would have taken him and all his men I but for the timely arrival of Fuller. f The biographer of Forrest claims that i the Union troops outnumbered the Confed— erates in this fight, but there is internal evidence in this account, “Campaigns of Gen. Forrest,” to show that such was not charge by the Tfnion men, and relates how ~ Forrest sent in detachments from three di- - rections and could not conquer them. For- ‘ rcst’s own report says that he fought Dun- ham for five hours. Now, men who fight so gallantly do not permit the enemy to hem them into a pen, as was the case here, . unless they are outnumberad. Dunham _ had all told in the field 1,500 men. ’, Forrest’s force was reported before the fight to number 8,000, which was of course an exaggeration. He had, however, at least four cavalry regiments, three mount- ed battalions and two batteries, number— I I the case. The writer describes charge after I I I I I I 1 ing, as he states officially, 1,800 men. For— rest lost a great many men, but his adjutant general having been captured no rcport was made. His loss in prisoners was about 500, in cannon three, and in caissous eight. The order to retreat was given by Forrest as soon as Fuller’s at~ tack wasmade. He knew his own position was desperate, for his troops were in utter confusion on account of the surprises and disasters that had marked the day. The truth was that Forrest’s men, brave as they were, had been outfought. He had the. larger force and his men were mount- g ed, which was a great advantage in mak- 2 ing flank attacks. But Dunham’s daring had told on his followers, who i‘O‘ rht like heroes. The men of the batter. , when their ammunition was gone, fought on vith any weapon they could find. 1 The probability is that Forrest was s3 7 elated over his success on this aid that he ' despised his enemies and expected no sol— dicrly opposition. Dunham and Fuller taught him soundly that in wai'it is the unexpected that always happens. GEO. L. KILIIER. Keep the Peace.

How to Deal with a Bulky Home. It is a common thing to “see horses that have been balked a few times turn their heads and look back as soon as they are a. little frustrated. This is because they have been whipped and are afraid of what is be- hind them.” Again and again in his book Mr. Rarey dwells on the importance of being gentle with the horse; approaching him gently and deliberately, so as not to startle or excite him. He speaks of the necessity of having entire control over one's self, because the horse, being a timid animal, is easily bewildered and fright- ened, and is thus made the more unfit to understand what is required of him. Pat- ting and caressing have a quieting effect, and are conducive to understanding the animal and the man. The horse is quick to learn and quicker to recognize one who can command him. The balking horse should first be pacified, and then his attention diverted from the thing that made him balk. A good sug— gestion is to lift one ofhis forefeet from the ground and tap it gently several times with a stone. “I have never,” says the writer, “failed to start a horse in that very simple way, and I have on several occasions had balky horses which would exhaust the patience of all former owners.” Another method that will often succeed when all others fail is to unhitch the horse, lead him a little way, then pull the vehicle to him and hitch him up again. Never jerk. or pull at the bit of abalky horse. By all means refrain from whipping him. Those methods only make him worse. Apportion his load to the distance to he traveled and the condition of the road, and never under any circumstances overload your horse.— New York Times. ' Catarrh, Catarrhal Deafness, Hay Fever.

I should say the two Rockefello-s, John D. and IVilliam, and Henry M. 1"..Lgler are the hardest men now in New York for a stranger to get at. They are the principal men in the great Standard Oil combina- tion, and when they are in the city are daily at the palatial offices in the Standard Oil building near the foot of Broadway. The visitor to this building is received with the utmost suavity and courtesy, and every attention will be given to him if he goes on business; but, though he can with- out difficulty see the secretaries of the mill- ionaires named, he may go 1,000 times with- out ever being able to see either one of the three named. It is a little strange that they should be so very averse to seeing strangers, unless they are afraid of being imposed upon, for all three of them are ex- ceptionally liberal men outside of business transactions.

The philosophy of this phe— nomenon, as stated by an aurist, is due to the well known counteraction of the noisy motion on the drum of the ear—that is, the rumble of the heavy wheel on the track causes the drum to vibrate, and in this way producing or exciting the capacity to hear.

The quiet and peaceable air of Baxter street was rent into many long and ragged strips by a. series of shrieks. Among them were the shrill tones of a woman’s voice raised in fear or anger. A crowd came up, as such crowds will, from between the very paving stones, and stood in a changing mass on the corner of Park row. They had not long to wait. Insensibly they parted and gave way to a young man running rapidly and followed by several women. The young man was short and so stoutthat he seemed to have some difficulty in running, though he got over the ground very fast. The women were some of them young and some old. All were bareheadcd and most of them wore stifliy starched cal- ico wrappers that rustlcd as they ran and caught them about the ankles. “Catch him! Stop him!” cried the youngest of the women, vho led the oth- ers. “Stop him! Hold on to him, I say!” and then as no one seemed to pay the slightest heed to her exhausted screams she began to breathe forth in short pants threats of vengeance “Just let me catch you once, you young thief! Just let me get my hands on you!” And with that she sped on faster and faster, and more and more disheveled. Despite her efforts the young man stead- ily gained on his pursuer, although he had twice to dodge and double on a policeman and a young lad who made a feint of obey— ing the woman’s shrill command to “catch him.” The lively sprinting that the young man did in that block between Baxter and Mulberry streets so won upon the laughing people that they fairly cheered him as he went, only to change the cheers to a grunt of disappointment as he stubbed his toe and fell. Bravely he struggled to his feet and gathered himself together. Alas! for the brave spirit. Alas! for the treasure he had held in his hand. It was too late! The crowd gathered close:- and so hedged him in that before he could escape the women were at his heels. One terrified lick the young man cast over his shoulder. A second later he was caught by the skirts, imprisoned by two stronger arms than his—and spanked. Dear little man! Brave little man!
