From the nth Regiment.
CAMr VERMONT, Va,
Nov. ID, 1862.

Dear Joaynai;-Having few spare
moments this morning, ! can no better
dispose of them, perhaps, than by Civ
ing your readers a little information
concerning the present wen being Of
the 18th Regiment, and more particu-
larly that Of Company c. | shall
necessarily be very brief for the want
Of time.
We are stiil at Camp Vermont,
where we expect TO remain this win
fer, as we have received orders, and
arc making all necessary preparations
TO 60 into winter quarters here. The
five Vermont regiments Of nine months
men are eneamped here, but rumor
has il that two Of them will go TO
Washington 70 do patrol duty this
winter. Which Two, II any, am un-
able TO ascertain. The general health
Of the regiments is good.
Company G, with four other com
panies, were ordered out on picket
last Sabbath morning. We remained
cut two days, but did rot have the
pleasure Of seeing the enemy. We
were stationed Gbout two miles from
Mount Vernon, on the estate Of the
late rebel John A. Washington.
can assure your readers that Virginia
rail fences make good camp fires, and
that rebel chickens are excellent eat
ing.
The health Of Company q is good,
there being but few on the sick list,
and none in hospital. The good health
Of the troops may be owing 10 part,
perhaps, 10 the fact that We are build
ing three forts here, barracks for win
ter quarters, and doing considerable
guard duty. which furnishes as with
plenty oi good healthy exercise.
Il being nearly time 10 "fall in
f9F Battalion Drill, viii close.
From your irregular correspondent.

taking themselves to the uoods and
swamps on the other side of the track.
We carried away sr destroyed here

rifles, and secured one officers sword
and cap, and 4 stand of oolors belong.
ing TO tho Whippy Swamp Guards" /"
We lelt a number oflhe encmys dead
and wounded on the track. | have
since learned from Savannah papers,
Of The 2ith ard goth insts., that among
the killed at this point was Major
Harrison, Of the llth Georgia rcgi-
mcni. which regiment, with the guards
named above, wefc on tho train.
Immediately after the train had
passed, Captain Eaton, by my diree-
tons, Sc, vigorously At work tearing
up the railroad track, and continued
thus until the retreat was sounded
After this occurrence, concluded IL
possible to push my way rapidly into
the town and attack tho troops there.
while in the confusion Of disembark-
ing, and marched forward for lha1
purpose. | hal proceeded but short
distance, however, before | came in
full view Of thewenemy's forces, advan-
iageously posted on the other side OF
the public road bridge, between that
and the railroad bridge, They we're
fianked on their left by the river, and
on the right by thick swamp, with
three pieces Of artillery commanding
the bridge. They Immediately OPEN
ed fire upon US with their artillery
and infantry. Fortunately for us the
firing was too high fired few
rounds IN return when, as il was now
nearly night, aud the enemys rein
forcements above were double my en-
tire force, ! marched slowly back to
my boats. During my retreat the
skirmishers frequently observed and
encountered small bodies OF the enc
my's cavalry, who were, however,
easily driven of. directed Capt.
Eaton Of the engineers to destroy tho
bridges on the road in my rear, which
he did thoroughly, thus in a measure
hindering the pursuit, The enemy,
however, made his appearance and
attacked us with infantry and artillery
several times during my embarkation,
but on each instance VIC drove them
OIL with serious loss, as they were di-
rectly under the guns Of the Planter
and Patrooh. As soon as the steamer
again hoated we returned to Mackay's
Point, by order of Gen Brannan, and
thence by way Of Hilton Head to this
port. ! regret to report THAT during
the last attack Of the enemy, Lieut. j.
M. Blanding Of the Rhode Island ar
tillery. at that time in charge Of the
Planter, was dangerously wounded in
tho left arm and side. He is now,
however, doing well. This was tho
only casualty on our side during the
day.
