CAMP ADVANCE, Va, Sept. 18th.
Mesyrs Editors Of The Ere, Press;
For various reasons I have not
attempted TO keep you posted as to our where
abouts. and 1 will commence from the time Of our
departure from Camp Lyon. We had spent much
work upon our camp ground, and had succeeded in
rendering this the best regulated camp at which
we have yet been quartered.
On the eve Of Sept. Sd we received light-mar;h.
ing orders, and were told to be ready to march
with two days rations. at 10 oclock P. NJ All
was commoton IN camp, as there had been rumors
for several days Of an attack upon the rebels at
Falls Church; and at the appointed time We turned
out in fuller numbers than at any time since the
Bull Run battle
We marched over to our present position and
rested until morning, when we found that. instead
Of making attack, We ere here for the purpose
Of clearing away the woods and building forts.
Cur own regiment was employed mostly for a
week on guard duty, and in chopping; but We
have been ordered into the trenches this week. and
have had our first experience with the shovel and
pick We find that we are not as able we we're
once to do fatigue duty; but We have the great
est confidence in our leaders, and feel that this
time at least, We are going safe.
While were hard at work Tuesday,
rousing cheer was heard at the entrance, and
word was quickly passed through the lines Of
worllmen, "The President is coming \ rush
was made for the line Of carriages, and three
rousing cheers were given for Old Abe" The
President then introduced Secretary Cameron, and
Mr.. and Mrs. Gov. Curtin. Of Pennsylvania, w ho
were in the carriage with him. They were well
checrod, when Gen. Mcclellan was introduced. Our
regiment had never been favored with 81 ght Of our
noble leader, and he was greeted with such a tenn
pest of cheers ss is seldom heard lie carriage Of
tho President was surrounded by an enthusiastic
crowd who were eager to shake hands with the
Of whom have heard so much, but the
most enthusiastic crowd gathered around Gen.
Mcclellan. His hands and arms were covered with
the soiled hands of his soldiers. Inever saw such
enthusiasm, and you need net to be assured that
our boys are ready and willing to follow our lead
er on 10 certain victory. Should We have an en-
gagement soon, this visit would have a most ben
fetal effect upon the troops.
| The health of the Regiment is good, with the
exception of hard colds, caused by sleeping in the
/ open air, we have not our tents with US Phi
vate Edgell Of Company is in The Hospital at
! Georgetown, down with fever.
The articles brought by Lieut. Sharply fror
burlington, proved quite acceptable.
All letters to the Regiment should be directed
to Washington, heretofore

CoNDIuUN OF THE REBEL ARMY. On
Tuesday morning, five members of the Mary
land regiment which was raised at IIarper's
Ferry in May last, principally from the Bal
timore rioters who had LETT the city to es-
cape punishment, reached Washington
They had escaped from the rebel ranks and
came to our lines to deliver themselves up.
One OF the number, a young Baltimorean of
good family and education, says that the
main body Of the rebels is stationed between
Manassas and Fairfax Court House. At
Fairfax are four regiments, and at Burke's
there is one regiment. They have no forces
other than pickets this side of Fairfax, and
these are changed every four or five days
The rebel forces extend from Manassas as a
centre, and following the Potomac as the
arc of the circumference, to the mouth Of
the Shenandoah. He estimates their forces
at from one hundred and fifty thousand to
two hundred thousand men.
Clothing is very scarce, though the sup
Ply Of shoes has increased. They are made
OF cowhIde, but are sewed, and evidently not
OF New England make. The Maryland regi-
ment was better clothed than the others. and
their coats and pants were made of the
cOarsest wOolen, such as is used in making
clothes for the slaves
On the retreat of our forces from Bull
Run, large number Of coats, which had
been abandoned by our sUIUIeIo, Mclo pilA,d
up by the rebels, and when in good condi-
ton were readily sold by the finders at from
$50 to S2j each
Measles, fever and ague, typhoid fever and
pneumonia were prevalent and the mortality
was largely increased by the want of cloanii-
ness in the habits of the soldiers. There
was some complaint Of the want of medicines,
but seemingly there was no want of quinine
For iood the soldiers have only fresh beef,
bacon sides, flour and coffee, and sometimes
sugar. The flour is baked in fapjacks bread
being luxury unknown. They have no
vegetables, except they get them by fora,
gng.
The troops are all armed and well supplied
with cavalry and artillery, the latter got
mostly from our ships at Norfolk. So far
as he has been able to learn, no fortiicltion5
of any consequence have been erected this
side of Manassas lie saw none They have
no intention of attacking our lines across the
river.
The rebel troops have been paid off from
time to time in two years Confederate Bonds,
and these are received for purchases, though
reluctantly, and Virginia money given in
change. Com is so scarce that if soldier
by accident acquires piece, he keeps it as
pocket piece.

upon them, whether that shall be losses in
business and estates, or loss of health or Of
life
Coming to this conclusion from the high
est and coolest considerations and motives
which can influence men, it will be found
that nothing can stand against nation 50
resolved. The doubtful time has passed with
us, and hereafter the whole course Of opera
tions is clearly foreseen. We shall punish
our enemies in arms as traitors to govern
ment the most benefcent the world has
known, and shall have clear field with those
who haYe forfeited all they have, their lives
and their property alike. Whatever they
retain will be through the clemency Of the
restored Union, Union then powerful
enough to be able to show clemency in all
eases having mitigating features. There Is
no passion or malignity to blind the future
rulers of the restored country, and the South
generally will be in a condition which might
move the most obdurate heart to pity
Whether this firm purpose Of the rightlul
government of the country will have its
proper effect ON the secesSiOnists before they
are broken by military defeats is doubtful,
but it certainly will then impress them, and
will crush their whole fabric in a very little
time thereafter. .-PhiLa. v. ADsericaa

For thc Country GentIcman--and Cultivator
ERGOTED WHEAT.

la addition to the various pests that have
already been noticed as affecting the wheat
crops this season, there Is one in more than
usual abundance, viz, Ergot. This is
very remarkable fungus, ClarIclpS plrD1,rcQ.
Er., which swells up the grain into an en-
larccl, black, tough mass Ii a field of
wheat be examined, it viii be seen that some
OF the ears have one or more large, black,
horn like processes projecting from among
the grams. These are the crg0ted grains.
This disease Is common during the present
season, possibly all over the country It's
important that the real nature Of these NAL
formed grains should be known Ergot rye
Is by No means uncommon in European
countries, and while it affords one ot the
most energetic medicinal agents, 1t is also
productive frequently of the dlrest cOnsc-
qucnces in countries where rye bread is used
The continued use of er5otei rye produces
fatal gangrene, and even when ergDt pre-
walls IN pasture grasses, as it has it has done
to some extent this season in Canada, it
causes cattle and sheep to slip their young.
and probably produces other injurious ct-
tects.
Ergot Of wheat has similar properties to
crgOt OF rye, but Is by no means so common
Ia A-N4hlfl- Ru INC american continent,
however, 1t appears to be more abundant,
and especially this season The crg0t now
present in the wheat fields will, OF course,
damage the sample Of grain by blackening,
and render the -four to certain extent un-
wholesome, if not separated. Fortunately,
the ergotcd grains being much larger in SIZE
than the unaffected ones, there is no great
practical difficulty in separating them during
the cleaning of the gram The wheat ergot
has no disagrecable taste, in fact no decided
taste Of any kind, only a slight flavor Of
mushrooms is perceptible after for some
time. When we reflect on the energetic
physiological action OF crgot, it Will BE- seen
how important it is that the ergotcd grains
should be carefully cleaned out, not only to
improve the sample but to render the grain
and -four wholesome. Bad grain is apt to
be given to pigs and other domestic animals.
Ergoted gram caunot be 50 used with impu-
nIty.

The FATIGUE OF DAYLIGHT SLEEP What
most impressed me at midnight, in midsum-
mer. was not 50 much the fact of the sun
shining, as that the line between morning
and evening was Just as clearly defined as if
the sun had really gone below the horizon.
At quarter before midnight, you can see it,
and yet at a quarter past it was morning,
and what you had said or done only half an
hour before, belonged to yesterday just as
much as if night had interyened. You can
read all night long. You do nothing in a
hurry: YOU are never belated and some
thing of the burthen or pressure of life seems
at last to be lifted quite off your shoulders.
But after few days you would be glad of an
excuse to stop seeing, thinking, and even
enioying. There is no refreshing sleep; you
lie down to rest in broad day. Every tune
you open your eyes you think you are TO get
up. You are never asleep, but always tlreo :,
| never felta more delightful sense OF rellei
than when, after months of daylight, bless
ed old night came back again. and covered
me up 10 sleep, as a mother covers up her
restless cbild.-Bayard Taylor.
