CA8sP CAMPBELL, near Washington ID. c.
March Is, 1862.
To the Editor Of The AHegAaaiian:
Owing to the multifarious duties deyolving
upon the Adjutant of the saith p. V. since
we received orders to leave Camp Curtin and
report ourselves al Washington, l have not
had sufficient time to write you a note until
now.
In pursuance Of the order received, we
have at last cleared our skirts of Camp Cur
tin. and are now snugly eusconced in Il quiet
little camp on the Biadensburg road, near
the National Capital. We are daily engaged
in square. company and battalion drills
and otherwise perfecting ourselves in the art
military. Ere long hope to so perfect
ourselves that we Will not be either afraid
or ashamed to measure our length with any
regiment Pennsylvania has in the field
Even now, soldiers from other camps passing
our lines and seeing our drills very frequently
inquire whether not Regulars. The
bad influence Camp Curtin discipline and
Harrisburg dissipation has had upon our men
is being rapidly effaced under the strict dis
cipline Col. Campbell has instituted. Every
man has his proper place here. and every
must be in that place when the proper hour
arrives The game of ''old soger' won't
win.
For some purpose unknown TO us, we have
been singled out from the rest of the regi-
ments that were with us in Camp Curtin and
ordered to encamp by ourselves some miles
distant from where they have been quartered
in a body. Perhaps this argues forward
movement for our Regiment, and perhaps it
means something else. At all events, we
have been informed by Brig. Gen. S: Casey
that when his Brigade moves over to Dixie,
the 54th goes with him. There has been a
constant stream of fresh troops coming in
from the States to take the place of the old
Regiments being moved out. But quietly
is all this done, that unless you just happen
to be on the street and see the passing body
you would not know they were in motion.
The mud in this vicinity has been COM
pletey dried up and the roads are in splendid
trim. The only sign we have here of the
terrible mud is the woful appearance of the
Government horses. If ever there was a set
of abused animals, the poor brutes in the en-
ploy of Uncle Sam have claim to the
renown of having served the hardest task
masters the world ever produced. Poor hor-
ses they certainly deserve a place in the
Horse Heaven when their tolls on earth are
ended.
Being somewhat used up with very severe
cold, applied for leave of absence from
camp duties yesterday, in order TO go and see
the sights. Our request was readily granted,
and in company with brother officer we SAL |
lied forth. Bending our steps toward the |
city, we entered Pennsyly ania Avenue, |
and following it we suddenly found ourselves |
near the White House. Taking peep at
the premises and satisfying ourselves that |
all in order there, we crossed the street |
and entered The beautiful park in which |
stands the bronzed statue of old Hickory I
seated his rearing charger There is
The Alleghanian. [volume] (Ebensburg, Pa.) 1859-1865, 1862-03-20

perfectness in this statue that strikes the
beholdeF with feeling of mixed reverence
and awe-reverence for the man whose nerve
preserved his country, and awe because it
seems that the hero is seated there in full life
and vigor. So perfect is the statue, that even
the veins seem as though the blood was
coursing merrily through them. After loun-
ging for time on one of the neat iron seats
in the Park, we wended way to the
Smithsonian Institute. Here is food for the
curious. For hours we wandered through
the building, examining the thousands of
specimens of every imaginable shapes, sizes
and colors-animal, reptile, insect, fowl &c,
Here are curious specimens of fancy work
from Siam, China, Japan, the Islands of the
Pacific and the South Sea Islands-food
enough to keep even gormandizer in the
curious feasting for days before he could
possibly get through. The Gallery of Indian
paintings is no small feature in this man>
moth curiosity. We spent some time in it,
but our companion not being blessed with
the same amount of appreciation for the fine
art as we, hastened US away. We would liked
to have remained in the Library Rooms for
some time, but our friend urged us on through
the Statuary Rooms and out of the building,
to hasten over and take look ut Congress.
Arrived at the Capitol, we found a seat in
the Senate Gallery, and listened to the
marks offered by various Senators on the
Bill to tax US Government employees ten per-
centum, &c. Senator Clarks remarks made
us feel good, but we have very poor appre-
citation for what was said by Messrs. Wilson
and Hale. Senator Hale is certainly aris-
tocrat His idea of the distinction between
the Volunteers and Regular army officers seems
to rs to point out the Regulars kind of
aristocracy-so thing considerably superior
to the Volunteers. But want of time will not
permit me at present to pitch into the Senator
as would like. There is one thing sure, how
eveF-here is one who can't vote for Hale for
President
Leaving the Senate, We entered the apart
ment for the outsiders in the House. There
was some gentleman from Kentucky just en-
tering upon discussion, but his speech was
insipid that we soon found ourself awaking
from sound sleep into which we had fall
len. Finding could not aid in Legislation,
and recollecting that we had some little du-
ties to perform nig htfall, we took up our
line of march for Camp.
This place is full ofrumors, and as they are
only rumors, cannot at present say when
will leave F.; but hope when we do l will find
time to let you hear often from HORACE.

the counterfeit is said to be better than the gea

terfet the the hat brim touches the coat collar.
and there is no shading behind the ship. saa
On the SOS centre vignette woman up the

lock on the chest-in the counterfeit, the lock
is not SO perceptiole. On the left lower cor
ner in the genuine, the hair Of the bare headed
man is brushed smoothly, if with wet
brush and to cover a partially bald head in
the counterfeit the hair looks as if blown by
the wind. The rule work in the right upper
corner die (50)i is different in the counterfeis
somewhat from the genuine.

Slightly quarterng as if going round in the

4 Description of Neao Jersey.

The State of New Jersey has never enjoyed
an enviable notor,ety, but itnov seems to be
noins from bad to worse. We met a uoted
Democratic speaker-a thorough patriot, how
ever. few days since who had been over to
the dominion of Camden and Amboy to speak
for the country. He found almost the entire
population disloyai, not openly, but in their
hearts. Not few of their own newspapers
denounce many Of their people as little better
than traitors and there seems to be evidence on
ali sides that the State is hcneycombed with
sympathy for jeff Davis and his cause. Mon
mouth and Trenton should be removed INTO
some State more worthy Of their sacred his>
