CAMr RELAY, Nd, Sept. 12, 1862.
Mr.. EDIroR:-
AT the request and wishes of the Bedford
county boys in our company, send you the
within roll of company D, 1873, p. ", as re-
corded in the descriptive record We are now
encamped near the Relay House, seven miles
southwest of Baltimore, at the junction, where
the railroad from Washington intersects the Bal
timore and Ohio railroad. Our camp is stua-
ted on the grounds of rich farmer, which is
beautifully decorated with ornamental and for
est trees, shrubbery, &C., with an apple orchard
on one side, and peach orchard on the other
Fort WddsworM is located between us and the
railroad, with her dogs Of uur pointing in every
direction to wayay the rebels should they at
tempt to disturb us. The boys are generally
well, and have so far kept up good appearance,
and seem to be as well satisfied as can be ex-
pected, with a few exceptions. We are getting
along very well, and are being initiated about
as fast as you generally see soldiers initiated in
to service. We have been out, either on guard
or picket duty, for the last three or four nights
in succession, which is not very pleasant, es pe-
cially Of a rainy night. Part of our regiment
has been out picketing over week. This juno
tlon seems to be very important point, from
the fact that reinforcements are here daily. This
afternoon, one battery of Col. Cochran's artil-
lery regiment came into our camp. There are
several regiments of infantry encamped within
gunshot, and some cavalry. From indications
we will have chance to try our hands ere ma
ny days. The cars are stopped on the Balti-
more and Ohio railroad. They run up miles
above us TO Ellicott's Mills. Reports come in
frequently that we will be attacked in order to
stop or cut off the communication from Balti-
more and Washington. We have poor chance
for drilling but live in hope of better opportu-
mites in the future If you think this worthy
of note in your valuable sheet, for the benefit
of our friends please insert, and oblige. yours
&C., JONATHAN SNIDEk.
