We yesterday met with a gentleman who
was within sight of Frederick city on Wednes-
day, and returned by way of Union Bridge
and Westminster He witnessed the depart
ure OF Jacksons division Of tho rebel army
from Frederick, and its movements along the
Boonsboro, and Cavetown road toward Ha-
gerstown. II consisted of cavalry, artillery
and infantry, with ammunition wagons, and
but few other vehicles.
The lire could be traced across the noun
tains by the dense cloud of dust that rose in
the distance, the line of march having been ra-
ken up abOat 3 o'clock in the morning. The
number in the column was variously estima-
ted at from Is ,0e0 to 10000. A portion Of
them came directly through Frederick, and
the balance had previously been camped on
the EmmitIsburg road north of Frederick
The enemy had not advanced to Emmittsburg
nor had there been any pickets nearer West
minister than about five miles beyond Union
Bridge.
Parties who arrived at Union Bridge from
Frederick state that a number of young men
from Frederick had started out to join the
rebel army, but most Of them, seeing the for
loru condition of the men, came to the con-
clusloD that they could not stand such a SER
vice and prudently returned TO their homes.
The best order had been kept 10 Frederick
by the provost guard, and the stores had been
cleared of all kinds of produce, and wagons
and vehicles pressed into the service TO move
it off. One merchant had eight thousand dol
lars Of confederate scrip iu his possession,
which had been given him for his stock of
flour. at the tate of SIC per barrel. They
paid for Every thing they took in this kind of
money, and although some Of them had United
States Treasury notes they would not part with
them. They even refused to receive in change
any Of their own money, demanding Maryland
notes. or course the storekeePers dare not
refuse. The farmers Of the surrounding couu-
try had also suffered similarly in th Seizure
OF their stock, and the sympathizers of JEFF.
Davis have Jared in this respect the same as
the Union men.
The rebels are said to complain that their
reception in Maryland is not SO cordial as they
anticipated; and have licked in vain for the
instruction they expected in Baltimore, aud

Maryau Those who have bcen sending
prayers TO JEFF. Davis 10 come to their rescue,
have not they say, rushed forward to welcome

For the Delaware Gazette.
Knowing our numerous guests at the
supper given by the Berkshire Soldiers
Aid Society, would like to know the
amount of the proceeds which they so
kindly assisted us, in placing in our Treas
uary, we desire the medium of your pa
per for their information. And friends be
glad with US, your liberality for the cause
enabled us to count out two hundred dol
lars.
Many thanks we owe to those not MEM
bers of the Society who donated SO many
table bounties, and as we saw the good
mothers bringing in basket after basket,
pressed down and running over, we really
wished that there might be power dele
gated to us, to appoint commissaries for
our boys in the army feeling none would
hunger or thirst under their care.
All things seemed to pass off pleas
antly and with nothing to wound sGVe
the remembrance of the necessity that
brought us together.
At the regular meeting Of the society,
the following preambles and resolutions
were adopted:
| WHEREAS, Dr. E. Carney actuated by
heartfelt sympathy for the sick and
wounded soldiers of the Federal army,
volunteered the use of his Hotel and fur
niture for the supper given by the soldiers
aid society, and, also, for his gentleman
| " department and attention to the speak
crs and guests, be it
Resolyed, That this Society give him
our cordial thanks for the same, hoping
that his declining years will witness his
country one of liberty and loyalty, and
that the g God of Battles - will return IL
safety those of his family who are offer
ing their lives in this war Of blood anC
weeping.
Resolsed, That we also tender oul
thanks to the speakers Messrs. Waters
Wilson, Stayman and Allen, for thei
eloquent and patriotic appeals. thereby
assisting in rendering our supper I
success.
WHEREAS, 1t is reported that Lieut.
ii. M. Litzenberg, Of Capt. Purdy's Co.
of the S2nd Regiment was killed in tn
recent battles in Eastern Virginia

An Interesting Statement.

In his ,rond letter in support OF the Pres
idenl's emancipation scheme, Ion. K ,bert j d.
Walker says: From long residence in the
South, aud from having travetsed every
Southern State, know it to be true that co,
ton IS raised there most extensively aud prof
ilably by non-sluveholders. In Texas. espe-
cially, this is great truth; nor Is there doubt
that skilled, educated, perseyereing and ener-
gelic free labor engaged voluntarily for wa
ges for its own use, would, in time, especially
when aided by improved culture and machi-
merry produce much larger crops, aud better
cotton llan is now raised by the forced AMI
ignorant labor of slaves aud at a much cheap
er rate, at far greater profit than any crop
now produced in the Nerh' Remarking up
on this, the Nashville Union suggests, that
il cotton can be better, OF even as well raised
by white labor as it has been by slave labor
and if the rebels, By their obstinate adherence
to sin king and desperate cause, continue
TO make slave labor more and more insecure,
viii not the speedy death of the slave system
be inevitably brought about?

The lecture delivered Sunday afternoon in
the VIM. st. NJ. +. Church, by Rev. T. PAR
KER, was listened to by large and appre-
ciative audience 1t was devoted exclusively
to the subject Of Slavery, and its effects upon
the country and upon the African race. The
subject was discussed ably and dispassionately
many Of the positions taken being both
novel and original, and all well luHtained by
facts and argument. 1t was manifest the
speaker had thoroughly studied and mastered
bis subject. The effort was one in the highest
degree cFeditable to the gentleman, as well as
instructive and interesting to his audience.

The 4th VhiO regiment, when it left the
mountain region Of Virginia in July last and
went to HarrisOns landing on james River,
was one Of the strongest Of the old regiments

effects Of the unhealthy climate in that region

less than two hundred effective men, and bad
been ordered into camp at Georgetown, d. c..

The deceased way born in York Co.,
