CAMPAIGN ENJoYMENTe'
To rain and dust, in alternate doses, our Vol
uoteers have Iberay been treated. To-day they
are mostly melted tagged out, aud sprinkled with
dirt.
THE MOVEMENTS OF THE REBELS.
There is no news of startling import, save
that which comes from st. Louis, OF which you
have full adyjces from other sources. The men
sent out from General SCOTS Office to recon-
noiter South are daily returning, and all
bring the same account of bodies of men at
Richmond, Lynchburg Montgomery, New orleans,
and Pensacola. They all agree, too, that the
troops intend to march on Washington, aud that
if that plan is abandoned, the leaders viii ind
il difficult to restrain the men
THE TwENTY-EGHTH IN. Y) REGIMENT
AS the conflicting rumors concerning the viii
lngness of tie 26th New-York Regiment to take
the oath are calculated to do harm, Will state
that majority of the members are Germans,
who did not, at first, comprehend the nature OF
tie oath, and were apprehensiye of some trick
cry. In fact, one entire company at first de-
oned to be sworn, but after explanation bad
been made, they with aacrity marched into line,
and after saluting their adopted flag, took the
oath for the requisite time. Out OF the entire
regiment, there were but l3 who were unwilling
to Oblgate themselves. No regiment here has
finer material for service than this. One OF Its
Officers served with distinction in the Prussian
army for many years, and three-fourths of the
members have seen and participated in actual
hostities
A DISAPPOINTMENT.
No little indignation is felt in certain regiments
by members who were expecting to serve their
country, and whose employers ia New-iers had
granted them leave of aoseIce, with continued pay,
that they should now be compelled to resign aud
retarp, or allow their families to suffer on account
OF the stoppSge OF salaries by the AFORESAID EN-
ployers 1t would seem no more than Justice IL
the names of such employers could be puDilshed-
As it is, however they may take sober second
thought and re-decide.

DEcoRUM AND QUIET
Notwithstanding the immense force here, the
decorum and quiet of troops is in the highest
degree commendable. Many wants are neglected,
and many fair expectations disappointed, but this
ia the natural consequence Of the exigencies of
the times. The soldiers of the Republic now Oh
the ground are in excellent health, and in the
highest spirits. They have good cause go-
rious destiny before them.
