DEAR JOURNAL; At tho request Of largo
number in this regiment, Twill address few
lines to you. that you may II Il please you,
give statement to q few lacts, which the
public ought to know. It Is generally sup
posed, down with you, 80 am informed that
this regiment has been paid of and that we
have received other things stipulated in tho
Army regulations, that we have not. meet
with men every day who, with fearful eyes,
tell me of the distrcsses their families at home
experience, because they are unable to send
them any money. II is now nearly five
months since We left Augusta and during
this time Government has not paid the men
of the 9Th Maine Regiment q single cent
To say that this is unjust is to speak the
feelings of these men very weakly. However,
II is not supposed to DO the fault of Govern
ment, but of the men who stand between Us
and government. We see some OF this in
Quarter Masters operations, where huge
speculations are made and the soldiers there
fore reduced tremendously in the variety Of
their food. But Of these comparatively un-
important things we will not now make
public complaint, but endcavor to make
emphatic the fact that we have had no money
to send our suffering families, 50 that may
hap creditors will not be 80 hard on them
for debts due.
The troops here arc thirsting for active
operations and wondering ut the inactive
state in which they are kept.
Yours, o. NJ. COUSINS.

At the time of tho skirmish at Dninsville, In
which the gallant Bucktails Of Penn. did 90
we'll, we formed reserve, but were about
three miles from the scene Of action. At
another time we marched out TO the village
of Lewinsyille, where We spent the day in
drilling. Some OF the down-east journals
have reported the taking Of Lewinsville by
the TIN, probably taken from some private
letter written by some patriotic youth whose
views were somewhat enlarged on that occa-
sion. ...'l.I

Blt is understood, says Washington

Means are engaged in pcrfccting the details
Of tax bill. 1t proposes moderate rate Of
taxation upon most of the articles of neces-
sary consumption, with higher rates ON dis
titled liquors and other articles OF luxury ,on
lcgacies and probates, on passengers by rail-
ways and other convcyanccs, and on news
papers and telegraphic messages. From these
and other sources, in connection with the
tariff on imports, it is confidently expected,
after the most careful Investigation, that the
Government will derive an annual revenue Of
at least sl50,OOO,0OO. This tax bill will
