BEELINGToN, Va, July 10Th, 1861.
There was skirmishng yesterday. Barnett's
artillery threw few shells into hill ON the
right of the road, and opposite that from which
the rebels have fallen back. They have been
cutting road to its Great, intending to plant a
battery that will command our advance, and
dislodge ua from their skrmishing ground. 1t
may be necessary to storm the bill to-day. One
piece OF artillery was taken to hill on tho left,
in the rear, and southwest Of that occupied by the
Ohio l4th, and commanding view of the rebel
camp and entrenchments. The shell and balls
fell near enough to drive them out of their en-.
trenchments into the woods in their rear, and
stirred them upliyely. Our loss is, accurately,
two killed, elk wounded, and one of the lst Vir-
ginia regiment taken prisoner. Two of the
wounded, Frank Jero, Ohio 18th, and Corporal
Dyson Boothroyd, 9ih Indiana, are in q critical
condition. The Others will recover. ~ ,.s
+, We have clear morning, after heavy storm,
which commenced yesterday afternoon The
health of the troops is very good. We can
make no advance, except to strengthen our
position, till further orders are received. p.

Army Chaplains.

the Army Committee of the New York Young

che follosing memorai TO. the Secretary OF
War: =.
n PIT NEW YoRK, July lst, 1861.
Hon. SIMON CAMERON, Secretary Of War. ~
SR: The undersigned, constituting the Army
Committee of the New York Young Mems
Christian Association, take the liberty Of CALL
ing your attention to the fact, that contrary 70
your General Order No. Is, in the Memorsn-
dunn respecting Chaplains, requiring that they
should be regularly organized clergymen oi
some Christian denomination, there are persons
of other occupations, such ss bankers, editors,
and play actors,f occupying positions as chap
lainsAi Ain some Of the newly; formed regiments.
We have reason TO believe not only that
these persons have no true ministerial standing,
but that they are destitute OF that positive re
ligious character which is essential TO the use
fulness Of chaplain, and the spiritual welfare
iof the soldiers. u "a 81 5'
Il aeems to us as an exceedingly Improper
circumstance that indiYiduals like these should
fill places which many talented and devoted
clergymen are ready 10 occupy, even at the sac
rifcs Of their own personal Interest We
therefore, would respectfully call your atten
tion 10 the above-nRmed fact, and humbly re-
quest that no commission be issued for any one
as chaplain unless he can furnish sufficient evil
dence aud satisfactory credentials of his Official
character and standing as minister Of the
Gospel. And We beg that improper persons
already commissioned through inadvertence OF
under misapprehension, may be dismissed the
service. With much respect, your obedieni
servants, = I-LN p
