un.eeseI, and went into The ser
vice OF our country, we thought
that, by yoar favor, we would o.
cas.oaaly give, in our uacouth
style, 4 few items concerning
the ooh Regiment, and particu-
iarly Of Company d. Bat owing
to the hurried manner IN which
We were taken through from the
very formation Of the Regiment
up to the ever memorable 39.h of
August, prevented Us from get
ting time, even to let cur friend
know how or where we were.
Things are different now; we are
more at leisure and gladly employ
our tune in contributing TO those
columns that have borne our
signature IN "balmIer days when
we could sit quietly down at the
stable of elaboration" and.
while the gentle moon poured in
her mellow Light through the
half-open window shade, take
the wings OF fancy and explore
the hidden future, at times, secu-
ing to oarseh bliss and prosperi-
ty.
Bat we are subject to Times
changes, and feel content to make
the best OF every revolution the
great Wheel Of Time briags. Il
it brings pleasure and happiness
we are ready to enjoy it; and i, il
brings adversely and misery we
are willing to bear oar part
Lest we become wearisone in
speaking Of ourself we will now
proceed to speak Of matters and
things generally, hoping you viii
pardon tie DEPRESSION.
We are now recognizing in
Camp Wayne. The exact num-
Der OF men that have reported is
not yet ascertained. There
seems to be some dissatisfaction
among those paroled, in regard to
icing held IN camp, and oar pat

ganize the 69tb Regiment, bat It

manclntto re.orslnize it. There
seems TO BE Somc oats. lie press
in reference b the matter. The
secret is, 40 public man can fail
III the performance OF his duty.
and notrece.ve tie putlic censure
which IS dlo him from every gem
uiue nan.
Its hoped By the Colonel that
the soldiers of the 69'h will not,
now, conduct theaeelyes in such
a manner that they will dim
the glory so nobly won by them
at the battle near Richmond, Nv,
aad this he thinks they wiH do
by not Immediately assembling
at the time and place designated
by the call Of the Governor
We have full assurance that
there is no soldier in the Goth
that would reflect one ray OF dis
credit, or disgrace upon himself
But when priva;es lose conf
dence in their off ,ers it is sure
to cause difficulty in some
way. 1t is true, it will be a be
sad thing for the 9th to commit
any act that would "dim their
glory," bat should they do tins,
there is one thing that they can
not dc, they can do nothing so
recreant that it viii "dim the
glory" won by the recognizing
Colonel at that harJ-iought bat
tie. The reason is obvious, and
needs no further explanation.
The different companies areft
ting up quarters, aad are soon
going 70 be comfortably fixed, TO
stay here for some length Of time,

We may be 'en moved soon. We

A fact referred to by our Washington
correspondent cannot be too often repeated
liz we would understand tho nature and
character OF the present war. AS our for.
ces move forward into the mountains Of
North Alabama they find the Union feeling
more decided than ineitber West Tennessee
or Kentucky. The reason is that the
mountains cherish few Shareholders. Gould
a moral thermometer be constructed %
measure the degree Of loyal sentiment ia
any community, it would be also precise
measure Of the number of shareholders 10
that community. In the districts where
there are no slaves there is no quarrel with
tho government; where there are few slaves
tho quarrel is slight one, but where there
are many slaves there is open iDsunection.
A map, known TO most Of our readers,
which shows in white and black the rela-
tive proportion Of the free and slave inhab-
itants Of al the counties Of the southern
States, shows at the same time the relative
force Of the rebellion. In truth, military
leader might direct his recruiting ser.
vice and military movements according e
the indications Of that map. In the white
parts he would find friends and nssistauts
and 10 the black, enemies whose malignity
would deepen with the depth Of the color

"JoHN BRowN's BoDY."-If the Win
chester (va.) correspondent of the New
York World is correct in his statement,
"John Browns body" does not "moulder in
the grave" In letter dated 18th inst he
says:
81 visited the medical college in this
town, where M. DIS are furnished to the
Southern Confederacy. Prominent among
the objects in the museum was the body Of
John Brown, Sen., the integument taken
off, and the muscles, veins and arteries all
preserved, the top of the Uranium sawn off,
and the lips purposely distorted in disre,
spect."
1t must have been some other body than
that of John Brown Sen.; for after the ex
ecution the body Of Brown was taken 10
North Elba, N. Y, and inferred on his own
farm, where his widow now resides.-Ep.

Not whlppea since plnner.

The New Orleans Crescent has a Rich
mcnd correspondent who expresses the
public Consideration in lively way, IS will
be seen by the following extract.
"You will naturally desire to know how
the people in the Confederate metropolis
stand these trying times--foT il Is evideut
that we are not safe in these days Of light
draft gunboats and high water. answer,
in the main, We stand il very we'll. Some,
TO be sure, are down-hearted, and nobody
wears as broad grin as they did the day
after the battle Of Leesburg. Still there is
a universal determination 70 do OF 10 die
to 60 down, if need be, with our harness on,

news. No. said he, Il dou's beliove ~e

though, TO hear Of another defeat in the

"Somehow can't help thinking Of Hal
leck's assertion BY telegraph TO McClellan
that the Union flag is on the soil Of Teunss-
see, never to be removed This is brag, but
the Yankees have, up 10 this time, stuck
like leeches wherever they have effected .
landing. They iutFench themselves, aud at
the first spade full of earth thrown I'D BY
them, our Generals give right up and say
all Is lost, They have attacked us repsai-
edly in trenches and forts, and carried the
latter invariably, while We. with the except
ion Of the St. Nicholas affair and few oih-
ers, have not done daring thing through
the whole war. Another noticeable differ
enes between the Yankees and ourselves is
that they follow up their victories, Whila ne

The AIIIed FIn1-nnt.

1t is now pretty we'll settled that treaty
Of peace was signed at Soledad, on the 19th
of February, between Mexico and the allied
Powers. The ratification by President
Juarcz arrived atVera Cruz the 2Sth, in cor
sequence Of which the Mexican flag was
again hoisted on the Fort of San Juan de
Ulloa, and part of the Spanish army en-
barked for Havana, where two regiments
had already arrived. 1t appears tho allies
will continue to keep forces there, and that
they will remain at the healthy port of Or
izaba, for which place they were about tc
march later
| nThe King Of France, with forty thousand men,
Marched up the hill, and then marched back again."

Rebel prisoners.

All accounts concur in representing the
rebel prisoners captured, whether in Missoa-

or North Carolina, as very hard appearing
set Of rank and Gle. A portion Of these
Just captured at Winchester were taken 70
Baltimore on the 2sth, and they are thus
described:
Two hundred and thirty rebel prisoners,
captured at the battle Of Winchester, arri-
we'd here this afternoon, aad have been pre-
vidod with quarters in the north wiDgof the
new city Jail, the most comfortable, probably
they have enjoyed for many months. They

A letter from Springfield, Missouri, Of
the 18th, gives this account Of some Of the
Pea Ridge prisoners:
Soon after we came, 500 or 400 prisoners,
taken in the battle Of Pea Ridge--the frss
instalment from the bloody field--were
marched into town. Among them were
three Methodist preachers and number Of
Indians. / saw them marched out toward
st. Louis this morning, and such set Of
ragamufins never before bsheld. They
were all without uniforms, clad in bomespun,
blue or butternut color, with the Oldest hats
imaginable, of all sizes and shapes. Some
of them looked detected, but greater num-
Der seemed jolly, although / cannot say
whether their cheerful looks were really nat
ural or assumed for the occasion.
