Liqmor in The Army.

II appears from tie following extract
from the IjfbmeS correspondence from
Fortress Monroe, that the rebels are not
the only enemy our army officers have to
contend with. Gen. Butler has commenced
a good work, and we sincerely hope he will
persevere in It.
" 1t having become apparent that the sale
and use Of liquors within the lines was
aIarminsly on the increase, General Butler,
within the last few days, determined to pluck
the evil up by the roots. He ascertained
that what was rrofe>sedly the Suffers store
of one Of the regiments, was but grog-
gerry. This lie visited, and stove The heads
of some half dozen barrels, and spilled all
the liquor of every sort to be found He
found a book in which the account with a
single regiment was kept, which Iii closed
state Of things truly startling. Scarcely an
officer Of the regiment but had an open ac-
count, footing up for the single month
amounts ranging from $40 to 81 600. The
items charged and the space of time with
in which the liquor was obtained, and, Of
course, consumed, was truly astonishing,
aud proved The depth of decentralization to
which the officers, and, ar, consequently,
Tie entire regiment had become reduced.

cause the steps that have been taken and

TIE VERMONT SECoND.-We have re-

Vermont Regiment, dated July 29th, at

the case. This is owing to different causes.
In the disastrous retreat at Bulls Run, we
left five days provisions at Centreville,
which fell into the hands of the rebels. The
rush Of the whole army this side the Poto-
mac into Washington ard Alexandria at
once, created a scarcity of rations which
took a number of days to recover from. AT
this time the Quartermaster's department
has got into tolerable running order again.
Our mess chests, cooking utensils, KNAPP
sacks, clothing, and everything else except
whit we had with us at the battle, fell into
the hands Of the rebels. You will perceive
that we were left in quite destitute circum-
stances The first night we came from AL
exandria we slept on the ground, with moth
ing over US but our blankets, and quite a
number without even these, some having
lost them, and others being compelled to
throw them away, too much exhausted to
carry them. But now we have supply of

A Baltimore letter in The Philadelphia
Inquirer has the following news from Rich
mond -
81 am told on good authority, that mer-
chant in this city has received a late letter
from his correspondent in Richmond, which
significantly indicates that the people Of
that city are heartily sick, not only of Sc
cession and It's sorrowful fruits, but Of the
war 1t is also asserted that if president
Davis and his army do not meet with great
er success than they did at Bull Run and
Manassas, a counter feeling will manifest
itself among the people by no means en-
couraging TO the rebel president and the
cause he has espoused. The slaughter OF
the confederates is represented as terrible
much greater than minated by accounts
in the newspapers.
The truth regarding the killed and woun-
ded is suppressed, as far as there is any
possibility Of doing so. When the whole
story of Manassas is told, if ever. it will
prove astounding. Great distress prevails
among the southern troops They are no,
only destitute Of comforts, but of the abso.
lutte necessity Of subsistence. Clothes. shoes.
food, war munitions, all are lamentably
scarce, as is money also"
