Ny DEAR LITTLE FRIEND: If you
only knew how very busy we have been
YOU would not wonder why did not an
swcr your letter sooner. We have been
on picket duty for sometime and returned
last night, after having been on duty for
thirty-six hours. Perhaps you do not
know what standing picket meanss Well,
/ will tell you:
We 90 out into the woods and have
soldiers stationed every little distance to
watch the rebels; and the rebels have
soldiers stationed to watch us. We were
so near each other yesterday that we talk
ed with each other. They hurrahed for
jeff. Davis, and we hurrahed for Lincoln.
They called us odd Yankees" and we
called them "Rebel Niger Drivers"
which made them swear awfully. Our
boys set up coat, which they thought
had man it, and they fred at it from
their rifle pits, 1--WE sometimes dig holes in
the ground TO stand in and shield us from
rebel bullets,) much TO the amusement Of
our boys, who laughed at them for being
poor shots. Our boys kept up good
4
fire all day, shooting at the rebel pickets
whenever one showed his head above his
pit, and often hit them, which made them
very angry, and they brought out a can
non and fired bullets and shells at us; but
none of them hit or burst very near u.s.
Our boys drove them from fine peach
orchard, and we then had fine time eat
ing peaches. '..f
The rebels have a grand fort on Nun
sons Hill. They could throw shells into
Washington, distance of nearly five
miles, if they get big siege guns. Would
not that be dreadful, if they should do it
Now, want you to read all you car
of the history of the United States--how
the revolutionary war was fought, and
what those patriots fought for-how great
and powerful, and prosperous this natior
has become, because Of its free institu
tons. This war may last long, but thu
nation will be stronger when it is over.
What would you think, my dear boy
if all the churches and school-houses il
Ottawa county were full of soldiers, useC
by them TO sleep in All the gardens
were trampled down, and all the orchards
and fine groves were cut down and over
run by infantry and cavalry, using up tn
fences for fuel to cook their food with-al
the people having run off and left thei
homes, or driven away by a merciless enc
my. Such Is the condition Of that por
ton of Virginia wherein we arc stationed
and through which we have passed.
The rebels pickets told us yesterda.
"!They would be in Washington in n few
days." We told them they might b
there, if alive, but if they did go, it woul'
be as prisoners" We stand picket to
night at Bailey's Cross Roads. One Q
the Michigan Second Regiment died yes
terday. He was shot through the lungs
while standing picket, and died from tn
wound. Poor fellowl He was favor
tic.
Give my love to all the boys of M
class, and tell them they cannot estimat
loo highly their privileges-for here W
hardly know when the Sabbath comes, b,
any outward appearances.
Your FORMER TEACHER.

The REsULT OF THE ELEcTIoN.-As
long ago as June we warned the Dcmoc-
racy that they need expect no victories in
political campaigns this year. The fact
is, the Democracy have something else to
to do now, in fighting for the maintenance
Of the constitution and laws and in sup
port of the Administration. In tho
Mime election, for instance, the Demo
cratic candidate for Governor, who re-
ceived very meager support, is at
Washington at the head of his brigade,
where he has been all summer. All the
Republican vote is just about as full as
it was last year, when all their forces
were out which demonstrates one fact,
and that is that the Republicans Of
Maine are not off TO the war; The fall
ing off in the Democratic vote, on the
other hand, shows very plainly that the
Democratic masses are not at home

ARMY STORES AT WAsHrNGToN.-Up-
wards of 100000 rations for the army
of the Potomac are now stored in the re-
ceiving Gepots at Washington. Some
idea of the bulk Of these rations may be
formed when we state that there are 49,
'O1O barrels of flour, 5000 barrels Of
beef, 5000 barrels of pork, 100000
pounds of sugar, 100000 pounds o.
bread, with hominy, crackers, vinegar
candles, soap and salt in proportion
Large as this amount seems to be, il is
stated that an army of 100000 men will
consume all these in twenty days.

GEN. LYON LEFT HIS PROPERTY TO
THE GovERNMENT.-The will of the late
Gen. Lyon gives all his property, some
thirty thousand dollars, to the govern
ment. When he last visited his native
town of Eastford, four years ago, he paid
particular attention to the laying out of
a family lot, in which he strictly enjoined
his relatives and friends to lay him when
he died, beside his father and mother
The request has been fully carried out
The lot is enclosed with iron chains, con-
Meeting four plain granite posts, which he
himself had placed there, but beyond this
there is no mark to distinguish to lot as
one of particular Importance and interest.
Gov. Buckingham, of Connecticut, has
received the commission of General Ma
thaniel Lyon as Brigadicr General, and
it will be preserved, together with the
sword and chapeau, by the State of his
birth.

PICKET CoURTEsIEs.-Some Of the
picket boys on the Potomac seem to be
having nice times. A few days ago, one
of the guards on the Virginia side Of the
Chain Bridge saw a Confederate picket in
a neighboring thicket. The Northerner
CHANGED to have bottle Of old rye in
his pocket, and took it out for a swig.-
This overcome the Yirginian, whose liquor
had been cut off of late, and he cried out
at the top of his voice, Got some good
whiskcy over there!" A No. L." re-
piled the Yankee. "S'pose you give q
fellow just a dropg' continued the Vir-
ginian. "Play fair, then-nonc of your
dodges-advance half way without your
arms, aud you shall have drink" re-
plies the Federal picket. This the Vir'
ginian does, the Yankee initiating him
they meet under the shade of tree, the
bottle is produced, both indulge, shake
hands, and retire to their respective posts

that our gallant Citizen Il on. Louis Bush, will be

The language used on this occasion was unequi-
vocal and decided.

any European power, this Government will not
