InafOrfthe War.

We arc pleased to learn that our esteem
ed friend, A. L. Pierce, Esq, formerly our
Pixies Peak correspondent, has received the
appointment of a second lieutenancy i'll the
9Th regiment, now forming at Camp Oliver
Toledo. Mr.. Pierce proposes to canvass
Wood and Sandusky counties with view
to raising company for this regiment, and
we sincerely trust the patriotic citizens OF
both counties may respond to the invitation
promptly. Our acquaintance with Mr.. p
warrants us in saying that he will make q
capital officer--accommodating, plucky and
of the right stripe to squelch rebels. Fal
in, men!
1t may not be out of place here to men
ton that Mr.. Pierce will keep the readers
of the Journal posted on the movements
of the regiment See advertisement.

Church Dedication.

In the midst of our hard times, financial depres-
sion, and rumors of war; our friends of the German
n. E. Church, have compeleted their house of wor-
ship. The main building is so feet by "a, eleva-
ton of steeple rs feet. The audience room is 46
by "a, and will seat 300 persons. The cost has
been about $500, of which all but $50 has been
paid promised. Much praise is due to our friend
Yeager, and his coaborers for their enterprise and
self-denial in bringing it to completion The church
was built by our fellow citizen, Mark Curtis, from
design of his own. His good taste and thorough
workmanship will commend him to the public.
The dedication services last Sabbath were presid
ed over by the Apostle of German Methodism, DR.
Mast, t,who preached with much power and pathos, t.
large congregation. The influence of his teachings
were apparent in the liberal donations: About $3O(
were subscribed atthe close of the morning service
and nearly 500 more in the afternoon.

Camp Correspondence.

MuLDRoUGH Hill, KY, Sept. 25th.
Ed. JouRNAI.--Dear Sir:-I propose writ
ing few lines, giving you an account OF
the journey of the 49th regiment from Camp
Dennison to this place, which you may pub
lish if you think proper.
On the 10 inst, we were ordered to pre-
pare three days ratons, and were to leave
Camp Dennison at o'clock on the goth for
Grafton, Va. When we were in the ranks
ready to go aboard the cars, our Colonel re-
ceived orders commanding him to proceed
to Louisville, Kentucky. We reached Gin
cinnati about o'clock on the same evening
and left on board of two steamers about 10
at night. 1t rained during the night, which
drove the men from the upper deck, and
you may guess they were packed closely
between decks. We arrived at Louisville
at noon of the 2lst, and were cnthusiastical-
ly received by the inhabitants. In marching
through the city we were presented to Gen
Anderson. The hero of Fort Sumpter made
us short speech, to which Col. Gibson re-
piled in his happiest manner. We then
marched to the depot, and took the cars for
Rolling Ford. They did not start immedi
ately, and, while waiting, the people show,
ed their good will by bringing us water
cheese, crackers and ham. Many ladies
cheered lis with their presence and waving
of handkerchiefs, and the 49th frequently
cheered them in return with "three times
three and tiger" There was rumor il
the city that there had been fight the pre-
vious night, about 40 miles distant, in which
the secessionists were said to have captur
ed two shanties; and as they were said tC
be in force and as danger was apprehended
we were pushed ahead. Our Conductor
moved very slow, feeling his way for feal
of distractions. We halted about O'Clock
and were ordered to load our guns, which
was done with will. No enemy appear
ing, we moved on to Camp Sherman, where
we halted and laid down to rest on the "bos
ON of mother earth" Guards were placed
round the camp and instructed to shoot any
man that came skulking around, unless h,
/ WdihOu W lHC WltIOuL utluN
We stopped there but two hours, when W.
were reused up and proceeded to Camp Joe
Davis, where we again bivouaced and resteC
until morning. The Louisville Legion treat
ed us to breakfast of coffee, crackers anC
bacon. AS the "secesh" had burned tn,
railroad bridge across Rolling Fork, we haC
to go on foot. We forded the stream, IA
bout four rods wide) and marched l6 miel
to Elizabethtown, the county seat of Hardin
Our march was across a rough broken coun
try, and considerable portion of the way
was along the channel of small brook, will
hills on either side full 100 feet high. ThC
inhabitants of Elizabethtown were pleased
to see us, for they had been sorely afflicted
with seeessionists. But the tables are now
reversed, and Union men that were compel
ed to leave are returning.
One Of our men was shot and seriously
wounded yesterday.
We are encamped at Muldraugh's Hill
where we shall probably remain but a shor
time. There are about 1000 men here a
present and additional regiments coming il
daily. More anon. A. +. DONALDSON.

Wood County Fair.

We visited the fair at Bowling Green, on
Thursday and were pleased to see so good
a display of almost all kinds of articles nee
essary to render exhibitions of this kind at
tractive. Considering the excited state of
the public mind upon war matters, we were
leally surprised to witness so fine display
and such "a large crowd. The attendance
was respectable in numbers as we'll as ap-
pearance-the gentler sex constituting fair
proportion. The officers and managers of
their efforts to please both exhibitors and
visitors: The ground selected for the use
tof the fair, was perhaps, in many respects,
not the best, yet, with the exception of the
trotting ring, was made TO answer the pur-
pose. Our readers will understand us bet
ter by stating that the fair was located on
the top of an irregular hill, around which
run the trotting ring, and at no one point
could a team be seen in its course clear
round the. track. Otherwise, the ground
answered the purpose, and everything pass
ed of, as far as we know, quite pleasantly.
There was on exhibition several fine paint
ings and pictures; pen drawings, hair braid
ingst ""I 6ngood supply of flowers; The
hand.sd9l q RSg the ladies also bore con
spicuous part. In the matter of quilting
and fancy needle work we have seldom saw
better. In the fruit department there was a
very good exhibition. Our friend John
Powers had young orchard of trees on
hand, which Vas not only a novelty, but a
subject of interest to our farmers who stand
so much in need of good fruit orchards
Dur fellow townsman, Daniel Kreps, won
the premiums, we believe on all the agricul-
ural implements he took out The farm
department was we'll represented. Some of
he largest class of sweet pumpkins, squash,
IS, melons, turnips, beets sweet and Irish
POTATOES, etc., were oA>exhibition, and at.
Tacted much attention. The stock depart
nent comprised a very fair show of horses
.acks, bulls, hogs and sheep-all of which
we're much admired by stock growers
taking everything intos Consideration, we
hink the fair was decided success, and
froved not only interesting but beneficial to
III who attended. We shall publish the list
q premiums as soon as we gets copy.
