DE,R AMERICAN This is our first day'at
Washington, and we may almost Jour
first day experience in military litstss the
city is one vast camp, and civili are en-
trcly forgotten in the military excitement
now pervading the District.
This morning we arose at ) o'clock, and
saw the sth New York Regiment leave for
Alexandria, and noble set of fellows they
arc, rc,-perhars not excclled by any other Reg
inaent, and only equaled in tactics by the 9TH
of the same city, who, by the way, have Just
ior M ,sscd up by Wizards for camp, expecting
10 leave for New York tomorrow. They
will no doubt be severely censurcd for IcaY-
ing the Capital at this crisis, but there is
good reason Why part of them, at least
should leave for home, rs many of the mem
hers and officers are connected with n. York
mercantile houses, several of which have
failed since they enlisted, and their presence
is very much needed at home.
A great many persons have visited Alex
an.lra to-day. many of them bringing back,
{as sad tokens of the death of the lamcnted
F,lIsworth) pieces of the carpet stained with
his life blood, and bits of the door through
~hich the slugs passed that proved SO fatal
70 that brave young commander.
There are numerous rumors Of Il fight ut
Sewall's Point yesterday, with quite less
Of life to both parties, but they are not gen
orally believed by these who are presumed to
understand such matters. You will probably
know before this goes Ia prS, whether. they
are true or otherwise.
y private Of the New York 9Th was acci-
dentAlly shot t. day by the discharge oi a
pistol, probably not fatally and private
oi the list from the same State, was drown
ed while bathing in the Potomac. Several
Regiments beside those already mentioned
have left here to-day Tor some point not YET
asr rtaued some say for Harper Ferry
others for Richmond, but it IS very evident
that none except those in authority know
their destination.
The number of troops now in and about
the city amounts (,.s near as can asecrtain)
10 about 81 900.
