We find the following limitations affecting the
integrity of the Cabinet officer from Indiana in
our exchanges. The New York San of Friday
says:
The World intimates that there is something
wrong in the Department of the Interior, pre-
sided over by the above official and this intIma
ton is partially confined by the Commercial It
is probably true. To those conversant with the
antecedents of the Secretary, merchants in the
iron trade particularly, and other branches gen

a mystery, and they expected anything he took
in hand would speedily become one prom-

subject:

Yet so quiet his tread-his mission so still,

And she longs to look thro' on the other side.

CAMP NEAR CoURTLAND, ALABAMA
July 30th, 1862.

July 30th, 1862. !
FRIEND RIcH The monotony Of
camp life under the most favorable cir
cumstances soon becomes irksome. An
inglorious rest of five weeks succeeded
our unsuccessful pursuit of the enemy
from Corinth. We did not need it, and
and were restless under it, although we
tried to persuade ourselves that il would
be impossible for us TO operate effective
" against the enemy during the heats of
July and August. Gen. Halleck's move
ment against Corinth was not exhausiing
to his troops, Notwithstanding reports to
the contrary. The trench digging prob
ably killed nobody, and surely the fight
ing was not like that before Richmond.
As for our regiment, we were more in
clined TO fight. on the l4th day of June,
when we went into camp at Big Springs,
