The rain which for the bat three days has been
" skirmisbing" IN showers aud spatters about our
camp filling the ditcbes and holows, flooding the tent
floors, and sosi ing things generally last evening bore
down upon us in grand final charge which threatened
to swamp the whole command.
Our regiment, which constitutes the right wing Of
Frankn's Brigade was encamped, through sof those
strange military necessities" familiar to regulars
and West Pointers but invisible 10 volunteers, in q
msrshy plain, by the bank OF little torrent whics
drains the slopes Of Shutters Hill mile from Alexan-
dra. We had in the afternoon received the order to
remove our camp, and were congratulatng ourtelyes
on the change when at the hour Of taps the rain be-
gan again. and for hours poured in sheets on our
little village. The streamlet swelled into brook,
and the brook into riger, wbicn oyerhowsd the
banks, spreading out In broad lake over the PLAIN,
and wherever the trenches had broken the surface,
scooping out new channels thro1gh which the water
went roaring and rushing In wild confusion.
In half an hour the lower streets were transformed
Into runs Of muddy water; knapsaeks and hayer-
sacks were lifted from the ground and hoated about vt
will pots and pans sailed away on their own hook,
bile the discon.olae soldiers padded about In par,
poseess way half disconcerted at the annoy ana
damage half merry the comicsl appearance OF the
camp. One range OF tents was struck, and pitched
higher mp the Hillside. Ono poor pig was caushi
by tho treacherous water, and carried grunln8 enc
squealing to the Potomac. Ar no passed tne csmp ns

THE LOYALTY OF COMMANDER PORTER

To n' Editor Of TIE NJ y Tibsns
SIR: In your paper Of yesterday, among the dis
patches from Washington, it is stated that intelli-
gence has been received by the Government that COM
msndor Porter Of the ship St. Marys, who wrote a
letter some time ago to his aher expressing his SYM
