was pushing the railroad through as rap
idly as possible. By this time it is no
doubt done. Our fOrces do not anticipate
Huy serious opposition in crossing when
they get ready, and hope that tie enemy
will not all get away as they did from Fall
mouth.

Considerable complaint is made of the
j4undice in some OF the camps across the
river. One regiment is reported with
hundred cases.

sTRIsOEECY or CONGRATULATIONS.
The officers of the force stationed at Cen
treViile have been notified that they will
not be allowed TO go more than thirty yards
beyond their eneampuent. This order has
been issued SO that all officers may be
found at their posts should any emergency
arise.
With every guard aud picket ststioned
within the lines there is placed a drummer
and bugler. This has been done that the
men may be quickly collected together af.
ter the frat call is sounded from headquar-
tiers. The call is then sounded along the
line until it reaches the last picket.
sUFTERISes OF THE PEOPLE.
The pool people around this neighSor.
hood are in a terribly suffering condition
for food, fuel-and clothes. The most fabu-
lous prices are asked for common npees-
saries of life. Little boys shoes sell at
$40 per pair such as We pay 81 cents for
in PhilAdelphiA. Flour sells at S25 a bar
rel. Wages for the working man is less
than dollar day.

these rates and if il were not for our army

benevolent about here, they would surely
starve. The poor are DESTROYS for peace
at any cost. They begin TO see that their
position 10 really worse than that of the
slaves. aud it will be still more dependeut
were the States in rebellion to become a
nation. Then their social position would
be cypher.
DIssATIsPAcTIOS AMONG THE-REBELs.
Many of the higher class of Virgiuians l
have cOnTersed with believe that II there is
really separation that there will be
Border Confederacy, as the Border States
would not stay in a Confederacy ruled by
the cotton lords.
The interests of Virginia are the oppo.
site OF those of the extreme South. Al.
ready there is great elAmOr among the SOL
Iiers in the rebel army. There exists a
dead hatred between the Georgians, South
Carolinians AMI Virginiaus.
AT the AnIietam fight all hands accused

REco%NoIsAxCR.
We learn by way of Fortress Monroe that
General Dix sent out Reconnaissance up
the Peninsula, which reached the Chick
ahominy and portion of tho old battle
ground. They took prisoners all the rebels
they saw, and procured some valuable in
formation.
THE SAFETY OF WARRINGTON.
Secession sympathizers have been strain.
ing every nerve to get up an excitement by
circulating the story that StnneWall"
jackson is going to make an attack on
Washington. There is no foundation Mt
all for the story, and with most of those
who circulate il the wish is father to the
thought. Washington is not in the slight
est danger, and is safe against any attack
ofthe whole Confederate army, which now
has enough to do 10 watching Burnside.
POST oHTIcR DEPARTMENT.
Civilians generally have but faint con-
ception of the number of letters that pass
through the various post Offices Of the ar.
my. Captain g. R. Bowe, the postal di-
rector of Sigers corps, Informs US that each
day there are on an average five thousand
letters sent away from here. A cores
Ponding number is also received. Much of
the mail matter coming here is nsWspA-
pers.
Many persons sending epistles TO their
friends 10 the army often wonder why it is
that their letters are miscarried. This is
generally owing to the fact that they are
over-directed This serves rather to con.
fuse than make plain. All that is needed
to be inscribed upon the letter is the name
OF the person for whom it is intended, the
regiment and the company TO which he be.
longs.
Never state the brigade and division, as
there are constant changes going on in the
various commands. The Post Office an.
thorities are always aware of the location
OF regiments, aud therefore it is supefu.
Gus to name more than the company and
regiment.
