E7aors NashriHe Union and American The CHI
Biography of this epstle would doubtless appear
more familiar you it covered two five, or eight
dollars, as subscription for the Weekly, Triweekly
or Daily UNION ANB AMERICAN But, sir, the folly of
"ABREHAM" has somewhat changed our relation. We
are the 18th Tennessee Regiment and our detention
after the departure of junior regiments for the seat
of war is attributable to the sickness of the same
nevertheless, the anxiety for the contest and the
hard drilling through which the boys have passed.
causes them to grieve much at their disappoint-
ment Yet sir, if we continue to improve, few
more days Will enable us to muster about nine hun
dred as brave boys as live.
The high ground, beautiful forest Of black jacks,
together with the best water bursting from thou
sand hills. make this encampment pleasant and at
tractive. Yes sir, you may be assured the boys Of
the 18th Regiment will cheerfuly sacrifice the many
pleasures surrounding them to be transferred to
point in striking distance of the Hessians The boys
say they ''claim sight" They anxious to find
them fhSt." Ny only regret at leaving the good
things here is the probable separation of the Regi-
ment from such noble souls as FRED HARRIS, of the
firm of EDWARDS HARRIS & Co. His acts of kind
ness will long be remembered by portion of the
18th Regiment of Tennessee Volunteers. And you
my say to FRED that about two gallons of that
good "Twpsntiaei" Oh! hush hops FRED may
live always and marry fourteen times.
We have some slight cases of sickness, all of
which would be made sound at the tap of the drum
to go. As we pass through Nashville on our way
to Virginia, will call and give you couple of
thanks and promise to remain yours.

Outrages by the VandaIs.

General Mcdowell, commanding General, in his
official account of the occupation of Fairfax Court
House, certs to the brutality of his soldiery. He
says:
II am distressed 10 haze to report eresSses by our
troops. The erctemeA Of the found Uent in burn
ing and pilaging"
We understand that these ''excesses' were of the
most abominable character, and give true idea of
the detestable wretches sent to invade US. Every
enormity known to the calends of crime was COM
mltted. The villages of Fairfax Court House and
Germantown were both plundered and sacked and
reduced to ashes. People in the town and vicinity
were robbed of everything valuable and and porta
BILE they possessed Even the Washington STIR has
the following protest against the vainous proceed
ings
"VIExNA, Fairfax COUNTY, Va July Is 3 A. M
'sThe bearer of a letter from Centreyille
to Won is now here. | write by him TO say, that
some of our troops have burned the village Of Ger
mantoWn to the ground-God knows why. Surely
such acts should be stopped. The blrnlngs IN the
vicinity of Fairfax Court House, which took place
shortly after noon, were most wantOn aud lneXeus-
able acts. The best one destroyed was that of
Union man. The pretense was that assassin shots
were fred from the House, which is positively I'M
true. Ii drunken soldiers may, at will, burn down
the houses of any man, even though he be as loyal
ton of the country. If Gen. Mcdowell and his sub
ordinate comm lnders do not put stop to such
things they will utterly destroy all that is left of
Union sentiment in this part of Virginia.
The red legged Brooklyn Z1uaves made grand
haul last night. They hunted over the deserted
camps of the disuni )nists, and picked up, among
other valuables, fifteen watches and forty>one re-
volvers. This shows the hurry with which the
enemy fled yesterday morning. The finders wore
them last night as Crimesn soldiers wear their
medals"
1t has since been ascertaned that the watches,
&c, were not found as pretended, but were stolen
from the residents of the neighbOrhoOd A cores
pendent says:
Much feeling was manifested among the troops
generally on account of Outrages in the way of de-
pred ATOMS which members of the Brooklyn Zou-
ayes (l4th) perpetrsted last night. Their finding
watches &C. is believed to have been thefts. Their
Colonel threatens to hang the four of the known
to-day to have thus offended.

A Suggestion.

We would respectfully suggest to our citizens,
and indeed to those of the Confederate States gen.
orally, that the usual emblems of external mourn
ing be dispensed with by those who have lost rela-
lions who were bravely sustaining their country s
right and in this met with glorious death.
Apart from the distressing and gloomy aspect 1t
would give to our street and to our churches amid
the great cause for rejoicing which the Almighty
has vouchsafed to us, by victory almost unparal>
leled there is another very strong reason for not
adopting the habilliments of mourning. Many fam
lilies who have lost dear relative cannot well at,
ford in the sci lines to incur the expense OF mourning
suits at the greatly increased cost of them, even If
it be possible to obtain them at any price. The
heart may feel deeply though it beat under a
colored Yestment.
Another consideration may very properly be sug-
gested in the fact that the loss of father, son.
husband or brother, however poignant the sorrow
it may carry to the hearts of the bereaVed s under
the circumstances of the present war no cause Tor
that bitterness of mourning which attends the ordi-
nary dispensations of Providence, because the
gloom is Frightened by the glory of triumph in the
discharge of the hottest obligation of duty.-Rieh-

FATAL SHOOTING AFFATR-A deplorabe event, in
volving the killing of Mr.. Montgomery, of Lou g.
Vile a member of one OF the companies at Cam p
Bocne by Lieut.. Joyes, of the SAME company &C.
CURED on Wednesday afternoon, at a saloon on
Franklin street. IL appears that Montgomery was
seeking difficulty with man living in Christian
county then in the ROOM and Joyes in trying to pre-
vent it, became involved with Montgomery. Some
demonstration on Ms part drew blow Of the fist
from Joyes, whereupon MOntg smery drew apistol,
but was seized by Joyes, and the two men fell to the
floor, Montgomery on top. After a brief struggle
the pistol fred, and Joyes got up saying he had
shot him, but was sorry he had to do it," He shot
NJ in the side with his pistol that he had drawn
on Joyes. Montgomery was removed to the Nation
al Hotel and afterwards to DR.. Baingerfelds resi-
dence, where he died yesterday 5morning.
Lieut. Joyes, Immediately after the occurrence,
went up to camp with his Captain. The impression
of those who witnessed the affair is that he acted
entirely in selfdefence, and that he deeply regrets
the necessity that forced upon him of shooting
a comrade in arms.-ClarcSUiue Chronicle, July "a.
