To Mrs B. Rouse:
Ny DEAR MADAH:-It is with profound
pleasure and gratitude that I return yOu
thanks in behalf of the Eighteenth Regi-
ment, for the well-selected, appropriate, and
liberal donation of supplies for theuse of the
sick. The articles are just such as are need
ed, and they were received Just in the right
time.
The Bandages were of good material and
properly rolled. The slippers were large
and well adapted to the purpose intended.
The Comforts and Mattresses are just what
we need. The Handkerchief, Towels,
Cloths, and Socks are of the best possible
selection, and eminently calculated to con
tribute to the health and comfort of the sick.
Every article sent was just what we wanted,
and now feel safe in carrying my regiment
comfortably and successfully through the
approaching winter.
cannot in words express my thanks, but
I can assure you that many a sick soldier
will remember with gratitude the "soldiers'
Aid sOcisty." feel dOubly grateful from
the fact that the donation is from sister
State; and do hope that the kindness and
liberali'y 70 our own mothers, wives and
sisters, will soon attempt full recompense.
God speed you in your undertaking, and
may every surgeon now in the service of HE
country have as good cause to feel grateful
as Your Obedient serv't,
HENRY ". DAVIS,

Statoment of Young Man from PEN
sacola.


A young gentleman, named 6. A. Kcrbey,
who, few weeks ago, visited the quarters of
some of the rebels, saw their condition and
heard their murmurings, was been represented
in the Southern papers as being on their side,
and for that reason had sent home in double
irons 1t may be well TO state that this is
slight mistake, as MIR. Kerby came first
class passenger ~ the Philadelphia whieh
brought Iicnt. SicmHer 10 New York, and
gives the following brief statement:
Up till the 25th Of April. only FIVE sand
batteries had been completed. Seven more
we're in progress of erection. The guns for
the latter had not at that time arrived. and
could not arrive until the completion Of the
Montgomery and Pensaco'a Railroad which
would not be finished before the 10th Of the
present month. They were pushing the work
With all speed when left.
General Bragg remarked ono cvcu;ng, in
converSat on with some Of his officers, that he
would not bc ready in two months, and lie
WAS confident that Col. Brown would wait for
him. There were about 1000 troops encamp-
cd in and about Warrington Navy Yard
Fort, and the village Of Warrington, the in
inrIrcements had almost ceased to arrive
There was great dissatisfaction among the
men who were already in camp. Descrtions
were very frequent and particularly after tlic
reinforcement Of Fort Iiclions. The disc-
pine among the citizen soldiers is very poor
The grounds which th " have for d sSatisfac-
ton may be set down: 1st, As Bragg I'd,
Provisions; Sd, The climate
They are obliged to work in fine white
sand which swarms ui'h Fl as; in another
month yellow fever will pr b.b.y drive them
awoy or kill them. The provisions are prin-
cipally from the North being chiefly corn
flour. With Gen. Bragg's gencral<hip the
men are dissatisfied they think he moves too
slew. They assert quite freely that Lieut.
Slcmmcr outgcneracd linn at every move.
The whole OF Santa Rosa Island is in full
possession of the United States troops. No
men can now be landed on the island with a
view 10 attacking Fort Pickcns from that
quarter.
Batteries have been erected close TO III,
Fort bearing on Bragg batteries, which
were intended for the formerly trsQk side Of
Pickcns.
T. S. soldiers have been landed al the ex-
trcme end of Santa Rosa Island, from the
Fcrt, to erect batteries to gnard the entrance
TO Pensacola by Santa Rosa sound.
A strict blockade is now on the harbor.-
The u S. ship Powhattan, Captain Porter
stands gnard and does its work cfoctually.-
Nothing whatever is allowed to pass in or
out. Several steamers, and scores Of sailing
craft have been sent of. There MAS some dis
turhance with some of them which were iu-
clined to be Elctious

TBE NEws.-A Although the reports Of bat
ties received since our last issue have proved
unfounded, and much that has been brought
by the telegraph was contradictory and unre-
liable still the ncws of the week is important,
and clearly portends stirring events in the near
future Troops in large numbers continue to
reach Washington; Virginia has been entered
By an imposing force from the cast; an advance
has also been made in,o that State from the
west; another is threatened from the nor'hi
and Fortress Monroe, Oh the southeast Is the
point at which a large force is concentrating
for operations from that quarter towards the
interior. The particulars Of these movements,
with other important intelligence pertaining to
the present conflict, will be found in other por-
tions of the present issuc-to all which the
attention of the reader is directed.
BY this mornings Journal we learn tha til
L. S. troops entered Grafton yesterday after
noon, the rebels rctrcating without firing a
gun. 4 force of 10000 men is to concentrate
at Cairo, to operate down the Mississippi. 1t
is reported the rebels are preparing 10 evacuate
Harpers Ferry. Senator Douglas was lying
at the point of death yesterday at Chicago
Worcester is elected to Congress in Sherman's
district.

/ THE PATRIOTISM OF THE NoKTH.-It is a
i significant fact, says the Albany Journal, that
the voluntary contributions already reported
for the present war, exceed, by more than
three fo!d, those made by the people of Great
Britain during the Crimcan War. And yet
that fund was heraidcd as most extraordn-
airy manifestation Of practical patriotism
And it was. That offering was for the COM

It was formally announced BY Gov. Leteher
some time since that if the sacred soil of Viz
ginia" was polluted by the tread of single
soldier in the service of the General Govern
ment, terrible and speedy would be the ven
geauce that would be taken upon the invaders
and those who sent them. To say nothing of
the possession by the Government of Fortress
Monroe and its aPpendages, the federal troops
have advanced upon the forbidden ground at
several points ami IN large numbers, but as get
we hear nothing of the threatened expulsion,
bat on the contrary it is now announced that
the hordes who were mustered to take and
destroy Washington and carry the war into
the heart of the Northern States, will &C
strictly on the defensive" It is TO be hoped
they will soon have the chance of testing how
successfully they can defend that den of treason
and headquarters Of traitors, the city of Rich
mond. II is there they have resolved to estab-
lish their seat of thence they
have removed the machinery from uarper's
Ferry and are using it in the manufacture of
arms-and there concocted most of the schemes
of treason that have characterized the progress
Of the rebellion. 1t is above al other places
a point deserving attention-present indica-
lions favor the supposition that it will be in
vested by advances from the eas', west, north
and South-ard the sentiment Of the country
would sanction and applaud such movement
With the loss o, Richmond the monster con
spiraey would be severely scotched, il not

ABsURDITY OF "INvADING SOUTHERN SOIL.
We hear, says the St. Louis Democrat, very
justly, great amount Of clamorous indigna-
tion from the Southern press and people
about the troops in the service Of the Genera
Government being about 10 "invade Southern
soil" This is all idle CANNON. The forces
of the General Government cannot invade
a State. They have perfect right to go and
come everywhere, on every foot Of soil cover
cd by the jurisdiction of the Federal Union.
The General Government is not an alien nor
an intruder as to the States. Its sway ex-
tends over them all alike, and its laws. officers
aud armies arc at home everywheEe through
out the common domain. If it were not so
there would be no nation and NO National
Government. ... .as . .t .-- .
1t is Just as absurd TO talk OF the Govern
mcnt troops Invading the South" as to talk
of the British troops Invading" Liverpool, or
the French army invading" Languedoc, or
the militia of the State of Missouyi Invading"
St. Louis county. This stupid idea Of tue
just and lawful goverument Of tho country
committing an "invasioR" Whenever it sets on
foot movement to execute its laws, could
have its birth nowhere but in the maggoty
