From the First Michigan Cavalry
CAMP NEAR ALEXANDRIA, VAL
October 18th, 1862.

FRIEND II write you this
morning from within the precincts of our
officers tent. 1t is cold, dreary morn
ing, this morning in October, and heavy
portentious clouds overshadow the Garth,
and thick mists veil the morning sun.
a strange melancholy pail universally
pervades all things, and peculiar SEN
satlon OF sadness steals over my brain as
l sit alone within the folds of this mis-
cradle, dingy canvass, penning such i'm
promptu thoughts as may fit. before my
mind. Hook around me for some object
to cheer the tagging spirits and exhausted
energies of weary, worn out man, but all
to no purpose.
An aching void, as bounsless as the skyt
-. Onevery hand, forever meets the eye - %
II have yet to speak to you of our Regi~
ment. The location of our camp is, ex-
tremely beautiful and pleasant We are.
on the banks of the Potomac, about mid.
way. between Washington and Alexandria.
and in sight of the great dome of eur
National Capitol 1t is, I think, without
exception, the best and most convenient
camp ground we have ever had. Not
withstanding our regiment is but mere,
skeleton we keep up the formula of drill,
guard mounting, &c. We calculate to
drill four hours each day, two hours in
the forenoon on foot, and two in the after
noon on horse. AS a fair sample of what
comprises a company in our regiment now,
/ will give you synopsis of ours: We
muster in our company for duty, mounted,
fourteen men, that being the total number
of horses we have. We have on our
company rolls the names of forty-two
different men. Of that number there are
twenty-nine reported for duty, the others
either being sick in hospital, or bearly
able to crawl about camp. Aside from
the above, however, we have nine men on
detached duty, as messengers for Gen.
A. S. Williams There has been num-
Der of changes in our non-commissioned
officers, none, however, have gone out Of
the company, except Sergeant James s.
McElheny, who is promoted to Sergeant
Major of the regiment. 1t is we'll
merited promotion, and could not have
been better bestowed. This moment we
have received orders to hold ourselves in
readiness to march at moments notice
with two days rations, Cooked Some
thing is evidently in the wind, but there
is no telling what it will amount to. We
have confidence, nevertheless, in our Gen.
erals now at the head of our armies, and
believe that they will deal out upon the
heads of these accused rebels, ere long,
too, crushing blow-a blow that will
send them Keeling from the menacing
attitude which they now occupy.

What Has He Done for His Country
Let every voter take up the bogus
"union ticket, aud ask this question oI
every man on it. What has Byron g.
Stout, the locofoco- s'uniOn" candidate
for Governor, done for his country
Gov. Blair has raised and fitted out
troops in manner that has reflected
credit upon the State abroad. Mich
gan is honored, not only all over this
continent, but all over the civilized
world :. and she has become thus
honored under Gov. Blair's manage
ment. The officers of the Michigan
regiments, appointed by Gov. Blair
have made their regiments the pride OF
the army. The men, clothed and
armed by Gov. Blair, have been better
equipped and better clothed than the
soldiers of any other State, Kingdom
or Principally in the world. Gov
B air has given his time, his money.
his whole energy to the cause of his
G ,uutry. But what has Byron G. Stout
been doing? Has anybody heard OF
Stout's persuading any one to enlist
of his raising any men for the war
of his persuading anybody to stand by
the President? of his rallying any OF
his neighbors or friends around the
good old flag ? ofhis giving any money
TO his country ? of his using his i'flu.
ence, politically, socially, or in any
other way, toward sustaining the Gov
eminent and putting down,herebellion
Are any Of the other men on the
ticket well or widely known for their
efforts to aid in prosecuting this war
and in saving the Republic Are they
known as leaders in aid of the Republic
or even in aid of the State during the
war? What have they done for their
country? Can any one answer? 20

mitted to the bar of the Supreme Court
several years since, and is a young man
OF. fairslegA ability. Every body who
has had the pleasure of an acquaint-
ance with "Ud.p will agree with us in
saying that he is exactly the right man
in the right place. His election, by a
handsome majority, is morally certain.
AMOS SM1TH,-ohf candidate for
County Surveyor has long been en-
gagged in his profession in this and adj
joining counties. and is one of the CON-
paratively old settlers of the county,
though yet a young man. OF his high
qualifications for the office there can be
no doubt anywhere. - .f.s
For Coroners we present the names
of JOSEPH N. MARSHALL aud EDWARD
SnANAHAN, our present able represen-
tative in our State Legislature-gentle-
men who would adorn the head of a
ticket. and who will add strength to it
in any position. .si4- ases ~ aas
Republicans of Cass County, the
above ticket is presented for yonr sup
port at the next election. We have no
hesitation in saying that it is unexcep-
tional. Not a man upon it that is not
worthy ofyour ,con6deuce and support.
The convention that nominated them
prompted by an honest motive, were
determinated to nominate none but
good and true men. This they ac-
complished. 1t remains for you now
to do your duty by electing them, which
we think you will do. a t''t*i

THANK HEAvEN.-One of the results
of the election in Ohio on Tuesday of
last week is the defeat of the halter
deserving traitor, c. L. Vallandigham.
After the fourth of March next we shall
hear no more of him as member of Con-
gress. Gen. Schenck has beaten him
high and dry. What idol will democracy
now worship?
