named evening they retired al the usual
hour. A quarrel soon after arose as usual,
which continued until it reached a high
pitch. Mrs. Johnson, goaded TO madness
by her many wrongs, finally got up and
seized a pistol which was always kept hea

CAMP Woop, Jan 80, 1852.

FRIEND KEELER-A soldiers life is GER
tainly diversified one, and he that expert
ences it's realities only knows its pleasures
and trials. One nights experience with
mother Earth for bed, the heavens for a
covering, and the thrill Of the cold night
air through the system, divcsts it of tho ro-
nance and reminds one of sterp reality
But as we sit around the camp fires and re-
count the halcyon days Of the past, recall
the dear ones at home, and let memory rev.
el with our yesterdays" and tell Of joys
once tasted, of hopes that this unnatural
war will cease, but not until our foe is beat
en-; these happy thoughts smooth the sol
diers' rugged life and reconcile him to his
situation.
Monotony and samencss seem to be the
natural condition Of tho camp, but little
excitement now and then breaks tho SPELL
as an instance: When we were preparing
TO 60 on picket, and as regiment after regi-
ment was passing our quarters, the cry came
''fall in, for fight y and such hurrying
has seldom been seen. In less than five
minutes the regiment was marching to the
supposed scene Of action. But it can read
lily be imagined how chagriued all were af-
ter "double-quicking' till within the line Of
the Confederate States to fnd no enemy
) ouly a-hoGr. The gist of it was, that 8
accommodating party had been sent out from
tho reserve regiment on picket, and the
Col. supposing they were attacked from the
bugle calls heard, sent for reinforcements,
aud while they wero coming as fast as pos
sible, those on picket became panic stricken
and made rush for the Notifications, while
the workmen made tracks for camp as fast
as possible. We had not long to wait in
suspense for ii was soon ascertained thai
there was no enemy seen. We have been
waiting snxiously for forward movement
being daily required to have our knapsack'
packed, our other aecoutIements where VIZ
could lay hands on them at moments no
tiee, and, notwithstanding these preparation
and newspaper predictions We arc here yet
and very likely 10 remain il mud increases
as it has within the last few days.
All signs fail in dry weather, the truth 0
which'we realized on the goth. On the re
ceipt Of the telegraph news Of the battle O
! Somerset orders were issued to prepare
days ratious preparatory to march. w,
became jubilaut over the idea Of moving
aud the boys sent up many cheers. w
