THE Ohio State Journal of Monday, 22nd
ult.. in speaking of Camp Jackson, near Co.
lumbus, on the day before, says:
Rev. Anacn SmytAe preached a sermon in
the forenoon, notice of which we give in an.
other place. In the afternoon we were pres
ent, when the Rev. Mr.. Grammer, pasior OF
the Episcopal Church, in this city, delivered 4
very eloquent and impressive sermon to the
soldiers. His text was: 3" Endure hardships as
good soldiers" &C., which was listened TO with
great interest by the vast throng. The speak
er commenced by saying that some looked upon
war as wrong. He remarked that war for
fame, plunder or revenge was wrolg; but a
war for the defense of our country was right
that the soldiers here in the North had en-
listed for the purpose of defending the laws
against treason /; and he eloquently urged them
to fight and endure hardships faithful soldiers,
and sooner than yield or dishonor the flag Of
their country, TO lay down their lives upon the
field of battle, adding that in such an event,
their names would be enrolled in the Capitol,
and their memories embalned in the hearts of
the people.
The greatest attention and order prevailed
during the delivery of the discourse. We Judge
that there was not less than 5000 visitors at
the camp yesterday. This morning several
companies are expected to arrive, and another
regiment will be sent east perhaps Tomorrow.

RESCUED PRoPERTY.--A letter from we'll.
informed and reliable gentleman at Norfolk
Informs US that the Virginians succeeded in
saving much more property and munitions Of
war from the destructive hands of vandalism
than has been heretofore supposed. He says
that there were two sloops OF war secured,
one of them uninjursd and an immense guam
.ity OF artillery, shot and shells; and powder
sufficient to supply all the probable demand Of
the State for considerable time. The value
of the whole property thus rescued amounts
at fair estimate, to about three millions Of
dollars. So. after all, Virginia has made quite
a successful venture in the dawn of her second
independ dencs.-BGlt. Sun.
