as true Democrat as this Commonwealth can
produce.-He is one of the men for the times;
Democrat who thought he could serve his
country best by adhering to the old Constitu-
tional party. Mr. Noble will run every Dem

MIR. EDITOR:
A few lines more from me may not be un-
interesting to you and your numerous readers
For the last week, we have been rusticating on
the Virginia bank of the broad Potomac river
You are, suppose, well aware that we had to
''skedaddle" back from the Rapidan river. Our
regiment was detached from Ruford's brigade,
to guard the baggage train and save the railroad,
if possible, so that we did not take part in the
last battles in front of Washington, but we were
in none the less danger for all that. The even
ing before our arrival at Catlett's station, down
the Culpepper railroad, whittier the baggage
train had gone, the rebels had dashed in and
burnt l Z wagons, captured number of men
and about 200 horses, all of which have since
been recaptured by portion of our brigade.
The evening we arrived at the station, our COM
pany was ordered out on scouting duty, and
were fired at by party of our own pckets, we
being mistaken by them for rebels, in the dark,
through negligence in some one in command
From there we moved down to Bristol Station,
after the rebels had burned one of the railroad
bridges, and torn up the track for a considera-
BILE distance. We guarded the workmen until
they repaired the road, so that the cars could be

OF cars was almost one mile long, about $50
cars and five locomotives. On Sunday morn
ing, August 80, the whole train was destroyed
by fire, together with about $l85 900 worth Of
government stores, after the soldiers had helped
themselves to what they wanted and as much as
they could carry. The morning was cloudy
and rainy, and the scene was terribly sublime.
The flames shot up through the air with great
rapidity and the smoke rolled up in thick black
volumes and vanished in the air There was
large amount of ammunition destroyed, as it
would burst, it would sound like the report of
heavy artillery. The property was destroyed
to prevent it from falling into the hands of the
rebels, who were within short distance of us
at the time. Immediately after the destruction
of the cars we took up the line of march tow
ards Centrevile, and after being out on picket
in force on Monday night, we again started, and
after loarcdng all day and night, we found our

sons outside may be so indiscreet as to say some
offensive things. Allow me. therefore, to sug-
gest TO you that we are a great, free people, met
for great, patriotic purpose, aud that we can
afford to turn our backs upon small men in small
matters.
Therefore, my suggestion to you Is, that, as
are, this occasion, representatives of great
people, meeting on great occasion, for the good
of the country, we ought to pay no sort Of atten-
ton to any that may try to insult Us here:
simply pass him by unworthy of your atten-
ton. For good men. patriotic men, worthy citi-
zens of the opposite party, will not try to hurt
the feelings of any citizen, assembled on this oc-
casion, and it cannot be lecessary for you to no.
tice the conduct of blackguards.
