Sick and Wounded Soldiers
| BELONGING TO MAINE, IN THE WEST PHILA-
DELPHIA HOSPITAL.
PHILADELPHIA, October 18th, 1862.
| G.. r. Ddois-Dear Sr:-I have to-day Wis
tied the United States General Hospital, at
| West Philadelphia which is the largest, and
as | am informed, the best conducted hospital
in the city. There are twenty-eight wards and
seventy-three tents, with a capacity for about
| 1900 patients; present number 2,200. The To-
cation is very pleasant, in the outskirts of the
city. Everything is conducted with system,
| and the sick are well cared for. 1t is under
the charge of DIR. Hayes, who accompanied
| DR.. Kane on his visit to the Arctic regious.-
| There are eleven of the 9th Maine at this hos
| pital. Tomorrow / shall make application to
Gen. Montgomery for them to be discharged
from the hospital, that they may join their reg
| iment
