MAJOR WHEAT.--A friend permits us to extract
the following from letter, dated /" Camp Bien
Vile, Sept. 1b,'' which we presume is somewhere
in the neighborhood OF Fairfax Courthouse:
Major Wheat is with US again, but looking badly.
BE came back last Saturday. 1t weuld have done
any one good to have seen the boys on Friday
evening. We came in from 9 hard drill Of about
three hours, and were cooking something to eat,
when Liept. Coyle told us that Major Wheat was
coming. We fell in ranks, and with the rest Of the
battalion went to meet him, singing and shouting.
pointed, for the Major had stopped on the road,
too weak to come farther.
There are not many officers who could get such
a reception as he did Oh Saturday. We went out
again, and escorted him in, and he then made US q
speech. ta aE4

THE RECENT ARRESTS IN BAITINoRE-A dis
patch to the New York Times, dated Washington,
September Is, referring to the arrest of number
of members Of the Maryland Legislature in Balt
MORE says:
Upon one of them was found draft Of the or
dnance of secession or rather resolutions declar-
ing Maryland to be in hostility to the Government
1t is well known that the secession leaders had ar
ranged with the rebels of the Confederate States
that this Legislature should declare Maryland out
of the Union; then the rebel army was to enter
the State as an army of liberation.h For this
purpose they were concentrating on the Maryland
line and were making extraordinary exertions to
command the navigation of the Potomac by their
batteries at Aqua Creek. The scheme, Of course,
involved the possession of Baltimore, and the cut.
ting off of Washington. How far the arrest of the
rebel members of the Legislature will break up
the arrangements of the traitors, yet remains to
be seen ; but one thing is certain, that no ordin-
ance or resolutions of secession will be enacted.
The Maryland Legislature has adjourned, sine die.

A aunksr,s Retaliation.

In certain English parish q Quaker
barber received some time ago note for
church rates, five shilling and sixpence. He
called upon the clergyman of the parish
and said:
"Pray, friend, what dost thou mean by
this note?"
Mean! Why, it is for the church rate,
don't you see5
"Yes, friend: but what is that forH"
"Why, for the repair Of the church, and
for the maintOnance Of public worship, to
be shure7
"Well, friend, but what have 20 do
with that? don't attend thy church,"
"Oh, that don't signify; the church is
always open. and it is your own fault if yon
don't come? Besides, it's the law. and you
must pay" - .
Friend, take leave to tell thee that 1
think that a very unjust law. that obliges
me to pay minister and a religion which
do not attend. Fare thee welI'
A few days afterwards, the barber, by
way of Strengthening accounts with the
parson sent his, reverence a note. Debtor
to Timothy Saters, for shaving and hair
cutting, five shillings and sixpence.' The
receipt Of this note by the parson very
quickly brought him to the shop, in no
good humor either.
What do you mean by sending me this
bill? You never cat my hair, nor shaved me
in your life.'
Nay, friend, but thou knowest my shop
is always open, and it is thine own fault if
thou dost not come to be shaved

The Prospect OF . Fight.

The farther we get along in this war the
more it becomes apparent that il our troops
engage the rebels at all, il will be because
they can run fastest and when they have
overtaken the foe after a sharp race. A
detachment of our force advanced upon
Grafton, one Of the points in Virginia held
by the secessionists, as they approached,
instead of resisting them, the rebels fed
without firing gun. Brave fellows, these
scions of the f. f. V's | but, with all their
boasted prowess and superiority, they ex.
hibit, in an extremity, more aeetness than
pluck. We fear that Gen, Scott has made
a mistake in not enlistiug more cavalry in
this campaign, il be hopes 10 engage the
enemy. Troops on horseback may over
take the southern braves, but men on foot,
loaded with the accoutremenls Of war, will
stand poor chance in the race that is set
before them. II will be sad disappoiut-
ment, if the Northern boys are deprived OF
o good opportunity to show the 'chiyalry'
what kind of stuff they are made Of, aud a
bitter day for the rebels when they meet
the soldiers Of the government face to face
in hostile array. No better army ever en-.
tered the Geld in behalf OF any cause. and
none ever fought with better will than in-
spires the defenders Of the stars and stripes
in this contest
