W e are permitted to make the following
extracts from private letter, dated July IL,
from a member oftho 2d Vermont regiment to
his parents in this place
We left Washington yesterday afternoon
and arrived at Alexandria at o'clock, where
we stopped about four hours The town is
deserted of all rebels, aud there are but few
places of business open. Visited the famous
Marshal House. where Ellsworth was shot,
and enclosed you will find small piece Of
the stair upon which he stood when shot. l
had to steal ii. as Il is very precious among
his men, who have charge Of the house. and
will not allow many 20 60 up stairs but !
managed to get up and cut off this piece
The stair was eleven inches wide and three
feet long, and all there is left of it is small
piece about ten inches long. They guard il
as they would their lives, and will not allow
any more Of it to be taken away. went to
ono Of the slave pens which abound in this
place, and found it dismal place to behold.

one corner was a night prison
We are now encamped four miles west

" Our Captain went out 10 Brush Mill this
morning. with detachment OF 80 men from
the regiment, to cut road through the
woods. He came across squad of rebel
scouts hid in the woods, and routed them
without losing man. and only firing one
round. They went out of sight so quick that
they left box of cartridges, dozen Colt S

The Colonel has Just ordered two Companies
to go about two miles from here to repair a
bridge that the rebels have burned. Our
regiment and two Companies of Ellsworth $
Zouaves are the advance guard of the right
wing Of the grand army. They had one of
their picket men taken prisoner last night by
a squad of rebel scouts, of which the country
is full
I'VE encamped last night in drenching
thunder storm, which lasted about three
hours. You, at home, know nothing Of such
thunder storms. II came down in perfect
streams; but we did not care, for the Their
mometer stood at ll2 in the shade, and hav-
ing marched about eight miles in all during
the day. the storm was welcome, though We
had to sleep in wet clothes and on the wet
ground. Several Of our men were taken sick
/ from the effects Of the heat of the sun.
We had one death in the regiment young
Stoddard) the day before we left Washing
ton, from putrid sore throat. There arc sew
eral now sick with the measles, but all doing
we'll. Our boys would feel perfectly con-
tented il they had anything to eat. We have
very poor ratons and not half allowance al

three or four days, but cannot stand that
much longer. The boys think that the folks
at home are not using them as well as they
have the first regiment, in not sending u'
some provisions.
