The Rebel Camps at AIapas.es

The Manassas correspondent Of the New
Orleans Pcayuns, writing under date Of the
10th Of August says;
The weather for the past four days has
been intensely hot. i fear we may have
much sickness in September, if great atten-
ton is not paid to the preservation OF health.
The atmosphere is impregnated with all
kinds of impurities, arising from the battle.
field and the camp. The fetid odors pro-
ceeding from the decaying bodies of men and
beasts, and the offal and filth of camp, are
enough TO produce feyers and epidemics. He
who has never visited a fresh battle field and
a camp on grand scale, can never imagine
the Immense amount of decaying matter
scattered about. This putrid mass, exposed
to the burning heats of August and Septem-
ber, may have very deleterious effect upon
the health Of the soldier. The filth at Ma
masses is beyond conception. No one seems
to consider what will be the result from its
accumulation and decomposition. The
soldier talks over his battles, and looks for
ward for other victories. Death is disre-
garded, and a human corpse is regarded
scsrcely more than that Of dumb beast

SOutheFn Munchausen nism-HOw Secession
Courage is Kept UP.

The Richmond Dispatch of Monday says:
We have conversed with highly intelli.
gent and reliable gentleman who left Balti-
more on Thursday last. How he got here we
do not intendto say. He says Maryland is
like train of powder just waiting to be
touched off-that the Confederate Army is
hourly expected with ill repressed impa-
tience. Our informant says he heard soldiers
Of the Northern Army, who had been at the
battle of Manassas, make statements respect
ing the South and Beauregard's army such
as he dared not utter. To their credit, be it
said, they are telling the truth and exercis-
ing salutary influence. Statements were
made in public places in Baltimore, by re-
turned soldiers, such as the following: "The
Southerners are better armed, better equip.
ped, better officered, and animated with bet
ter sentiments than we are-they are uncon-
querable.
We learn from the same source that Lin
coin has succeeded in getting one hundred
and fifty millions of his loan taken, or
rather proposals have been made to that ex-
tent by the Banks Of Boston, Philadelphia
and New York, the same being payable in
quarterly instalments-say $4,000, 900 every
three months, in the currency of the Banks,
they taking Treasury notes as security at
the rate of seven and three tenths.
The Banks expect to have the first pay
ment returned TO them IN deposits before the
second is due, and this arrangement is an in.
dication that they look upon peace as more
than probable before three months are ended.
All the passengers who have lately arrived
from that section concur in the belief that
the process OF disintegration in the North
has begun and is going on hopefully that
the Northern people are demoralized by the
defeats at Manassas and in Missouri; that
there are decided indications of peace, and
that it is utterly hopeless to raise another
army for the invasion and subjugation Of
the South, and very doubtful even if they
can defend Washington.

From Fort Monroe.

Commandant Dimmick is strengthing the
Landslide of Fort Monroe, by mounting 10
inch Columbiads, ea J1rJette, which are to be
protected by sand-bag entrenchments. They
were filing the bags in large numbers on
Tuesday About one hundred men were al
work IN the forge shop, preparing for mount
ing guns. 1t requires three hundred men TO
do guard duty at once, the fort being abous
one mile in circumference. 4 very large
garrison is therefore nece: sary to properly
mount guard and relieve. The ditch around
the land side IS seventy-live feet wide, and at
high tide contains ten feet of water. The
big gun 'BOman,' formerly called the Floyd
is mounted to sweep the bay. 1t weighs %
tons, takes forty pounds OF powder to charge,
and throws a shot or shell five miles.
The narrow neck Of lard which connects
the fort with the village Of Hampton is to be
cut through, so as to allow the tide to have a
natural channel way. This will add nateri-
ally to the natural defences Of the place.
The secession flag waves over Hampton, in

His appeals TO the audience to sustain the Ad-
ministraton in this crisis were truly effective
for said he however much we may differ upon
matters proper to be discussed at proper time,
every loyal citizen must concede, that unless
those at the head of affairs can accomplish what
they have undertaken to do, we as nation are
lost-ruined.
