June End, 1861. (
sNessrs EstW
Just one month ago to-day, your humble ser
Svant left the beautiful "Forcsi City, for the
gCamp. AT the time of our arrival, everything
presented an appearance quite different from the
$str and hustle of the City. One regiment had
5encamped, but beside this, all around looked a.
sthough it was the domains of some honest old
Sfarmer, we being surrounded by fields of growing
Tgrain and budding forests. Since that time a
every great difference is perceptblc in the aspect
sof the neighborhood, the place having assumed a
business aspect, as there is considerable business
transacted. A Railroad Depot has been establish
sed, also telegraph office, an f lpress Office, a
4 sPost.Oifice, and large bakery. There are also
1.-TWO or three Daguerrean Cars stationed here
aas well as two or three barber shops, and an al
4most infinite number of Groceries, Saloons, .Ap-
zplc and Peanut stands. The Express Office does
IN good deal ofbusincss, and the Post Office also.
4 have no doubt but that there are 5000 or 5000
! slctters sent away and received here per week.
The principal topic of conversation now is the
shrce years enlistment. According to present in.
5dications, the maj ority, probably two.thirds or
4 sthrceiourths will re-enlist The troops have
4 been so lily used that members refuse to enlist
.on this account. Others, having left families,
{did not intend staying longer than three months,
Tor, rather could not.
There are II Regiments encamped here. from
the Sd to the 18th, inclusive, and it is estimated
sthat there are about l0,500 men in camp, rather
sunder the figures gave you in mylast.
RumOr has it that some of the Regiments will
!. be ordered away from here shortly to Western
q Virginia. For this | cannot vouch, as there arc
ESQ many conflicting camp reports, that no depen.
Fdence can be placed in any of them. have been
flong enough in camp to get so initiated as to be-
slieve nothing until | see it. Some of the troop,
bhave been uniformed, and the prospect is good iol
Sall of ms to he clothed at last. This tends to
somewhat allay the spirit of dissatisfaction which
I has prevaded camp for some time.
y Some few deaths have occurred in camp, but
Ethc health of the troops is comparatively good
sand the bill of mortality small. Two soldier,
/ thave been drowned within the last two weeks in
Sthe Little Miami, whilst bathing.

Our Town Disgraced.

On Sunday last, GEORGE Gordon, the peacher
who resisted the execution of the laws of the
United States some time ago, in Morrow County
and aided mob of aboltionists in tarring and
feathering, SHAY ing the head and otherwise abus
ing a United States Marshal, was in this place
and preached to some twenty persons in the Dis
ciple's Church. At one time GORDON was pastol
Of the Presbyterian Church at this place, but wa:
turned away. When he came here he applied
for the Presby yterian Church and was refused ad
mittance. In justice to the Disciples we will say
that very large majority Of them regard his ad
mittance to their church as an outrage. GORDON
is now under indictment in the United State;

The n. Y. Tribune claims that Washing
ton Is BY no means safe from JEFF. Davis
and his army. ltarguss that he has more
men under him than the Publioare aware
Of, and ell Of them desperate with despair.
The Southern troops have been moving 81
lsnay-to us-but noas the less surely.
All the CSnfederats States, snd Tennessee
and Ksatneky, are represented in the camps
in Virginia. Richmond Noifslk, llAhas
sas Gap and RarpsF's Ferry are ths
strOnghoIds, where are gathered q number
indefinite to Us but feafally numerous, Of
men who are mad for the conflict despera-
does who arc eager for their promised prey.
Davis arrival in Virginia has stirred up
his followers TO astonishing activity, and
their number is augmenting daily. A late
report from one Of the Tribune's attaches at
Richmond made The number II troops then
IN lhst city $4,000, but they were aug
msnting al the rate Of one thousanda a day,
and would soon number $4,000. Virginia
Pretends 10 have given 100 900 majority for
secession, and ought At least to furnish
$1,000 soldiers out Of that number.
The Southern States have been nearly
stripped Of troops to put al their forces
under Davis command. The rebels under
Bragg havo given up attacking Pickens,
and have leil only sufficient number Of
troops to watch that post; the rest have
gOns to Virginia. One s. W. Williams, q
lawyer Of Washington, having been lately
in Richmond, reports that he heard JEFF.
Davis address three regiments upon re-
view, snd heard him state that he had
6S,O00 men under arms in the State Of
Virginia, AID $4,000 men on the way
thitber, making $1,000 From all these
facts and suPpOsitiOns, the Tribune con-
cludss that there are this day 100000 reb-
els in camp and field in Virginia, Of whom
Davis can combine 5000 for an attack
upon Washington whenever he shall see
fit To oppose this force, 10000 men are
all Gen. Scott has or can have upon two
days notics st Washington. Suppose then
that Davis should advance upon that city
-Or, What is the same thing, upon Alex
sndria-frOm Manassas Gap with 10000
men, and tBaE The Baltimore traitors, haY-
ing control Ct The city government, should,
by pre-oonoerted movement, break the
telegraph wires and burn the bridges,
leaving the battle to be fought with 10000
odds in favor Of the rebels
We give these suppOsilOns and cOnelu-
siOns, not as our own, but as the opinion
