We have letter frCm "E. H E., j" of the
Second Cavalry, but nearly all Of its news
has been anticipated in the LEADER. On
the retrograde march from Fort Gibson,
one man, Willard TrOtter, Of Macedonia,
Summit county, was left behind on account
of his horse giving out. He had not re-
turned to camp at the date Of the letter,
July 21st.) and it was supposed he was
taken prisoner. The letter concludes as
follows;
''Two days Of our march backwards have
been performed and upon half rations.
The weather is extremely dry, and water
non est, save here and there fading
spring. Fourteen horses were left behind,
unable to be even led, by one company the
first day. The 2nd Ohio must be remount-
ed or disbanded The End is now enesmp-
five miles from Hudson's Crossing on Neo-
sho river, seventy miles south Of Fort
Scott. It has been ordered to report at
Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, and will re-
main in this camp for week or so to re-
cruit the mules, so that the train may
move on with us. Supplies have come and
the expedition will probably return to Fort
Davis, except the End Ohio which will be
succeeded by the2nd Kansas Cavalry. The
health Of the 2nd is not over good. Mr.
Simmons, of Co. K. died to-day. Many
cases of dysentery and chronic diarrh@a
are on the list. Col. Ratliff is in com.
mand, and Major Miner remains in com.
mand.
As we move north the weather become!
more cool; nights are quite so, and thC
prairies are heavily covered with greer
grass, which is no small consolation to om
! jaded horses and anxious men.
The mail leaves at three o'clock and
must desist, though details are unmention-
ed. For some weeks such q thing as 6
mail has been unknown to the Indian Ex.
pedition, they having been some two hun.
dred miles south Of Fort Scott, thelast mai
post in this section. Vague rumors are pre-
valent Of the capture Of Richmond, also
that Mcclellan has been repulsed and com.
PEELED to fall back thirty miles; but little
credenee is given to any Of these reports,
yet nothing would please US better than t
hear Of the success Of our army before
Richmond.
Capt. Brooks, a Captain of an indepen'
dent company of Kansas jayhawkers, was
shot in our rear since the countermarch
began" E.H.E.

Aaairs at Camp Chase.

ring at Camp chase e 70 relieve the monoto-
ny of camp life. The camp is again crowd
ed. Besides the two regiments stationed
here, some seven hundred paroled prison
ers arrived from MurfreesbOrO' about two
weeks since, while large number of others
are here from the six seeded States, which
report at this place. The S5th is being re-
organized for three years duty in the State.
1t is very commonly reported that the camp
viii be removed to some more healthy lo.
cality adjoining the river. Repairs, how
ever, are constantly being made here,
which seems to contradict the rumor. A
new hospital has been commenced, to be
under the direction of DR.. Carey; DR..
Brown, the former Post Surgeon, returning
to his regiment.
You have probably heard of the exchange
to be made from this place. The requisite
papers have been made out for about ten or
twelve hundred Of the prisoners, and the
Colonel awaits orders for their removal to
Fortress Monroe.
sOmeOfthe prisoners dislike to- be return
de South, fearing immediate CONSUMPTION.
Recruiting progresses very rapidly in
Columbus, some two hundred enlisted
there yesterday, and the day before two or
three hundred new recruits came into
camp from the southern part Of the state.
! Yesterday our company was called upon
for the first time to mourn the loss of one
Of its members. While death was level
ling his shafts at friends about us, we
scarcely thought that one of our strongest
and most healthy ones would fall, whose
constitution seemed almost to defy disease
he was member OF the Freshman class,
and his classmates escorted his remains TO
the city. There is but little disease pre- |
Valent here, now, although the weather is
unusually hot. Yours, G.

The Cincinnati Gazette says that the
report that Governor Tod has received a
dispatch from the Secretary of War, that
no substitutes viii be allowed for persons
who may be drafted, probably has for its
foundation that the Secretary informed
Gov. Tod that the substitutes which have
been furnished as volunteers, before the
draft, win not be allowed as substi-
tutes for persons who may be drafted.

Sen. NagIey deallns with traitor.

Some Of our Ohio trOOps-Konklss Bat.
terry among them-are in Gen. Negley's
division in Tennessee. A Tennessee cor
respondent of the Philadelphia Press gives
an interesting sketch Of how he is dealing
with the traitors. The correspondent
says:
ale is now at Columbia, Tennessee,
with but FIVE hundred men at his disposal
General Buell. having withdrawn over
seven thousand Of his forces. He was
complete master Of all the roads in Middle
Tennessee, his lines extending to Shelby
vile on the east, to Pittsburgh Landing
on the west, and to Decatur south; and. as
is well known, although several of The
principal railroads and supply routes were
In his command, he lost but three men
as prisoners, no bridges were destroyed,
and but few minor depredations were com
mitted.

Learning rhe Ar Of war.

The Philadelphis Ledger says a great
many persons we find disposed to criticise
sharply the Government for its mistakes in
the war, or, what these persons imagine to
be blunders. 1t would be miracle indeed
if mistakes were not made in such war
as we are waging, and covering the extern
sive field that it does. But even our mis-
takes are sources Of knowledge, which may
be advantageously improved in the future
conduct Of the war. Instead of jumping
to the conclusion that they are proofs of
inoompetency, we should rather consider
them the necessary steps to the knowledge
out Of which success comes at last. We
are new to the business Of war, for, thank
Heaven, hitherto our energies and industry
have been engaged in the pursuits which
gave independence to individuals and
strength and prosperity to the nation. In
reaching the high position we occupy as
an industrial nation, full Of skill in the
arts and Of invention to facilitate opera
tion, we have doubtless, likewise, made
thousands Of mistakes, for all improve
ments are but step forward from a sue
cession of blunders or inferior methods
of accomplishing desirable results, and
each is still far removed from the highest
attainRble point to which human genius
can carry US. If then we cannot become
great inventors, great artists, great me-
made progress however, and considerable
progress TOO, when we look at the results
already accomplished, but what is better,
we are learning our short conihgs, and
have the wisdom to acknowledge, and the
ability to correct them. Out Of errors.
therefore we are acquiring knowledge
which eventually leads to success. The
active campaign against Richmond has
been brought to a sudden check, but the
military minds which have been gathered
to council in the matter, will evolve from
our hitherto experience the proper meas
ures which viii enable it to be resumed
again with increased prospect of sue

On the Rampaae.

A California paper states that Rev. J. A.
Anderson, chaplain Of the Sd Regiment C.
v, was decidedly on the rampage on the
Fourth Of July. At the close Of the ora
ton at the Agricultural Hall, he pro-
nOunoed the following strange benedictiOn:
And now may the God Of Washington,
the God Of RoOte, Halleck, Mcclellan and
Lincoln, nerve, guide and surge this whole
nation till Richmond is taken, Charleston
burnt, secession annihilated, and slop-
shop Union men turned out Of existence
Amen"

General Lew. Wallace stated, in his
Cincinnati speech, that in the eleven reg
iments under his command four hundred
and eighty-TOur men were detailed for du-
ties which the blacks, taken from the en-
emy or running from him, could just as
well perform; "almOst enough to make q
whole regiment" he added, and asked, "if
we can find men to do this drudgsry, why,
in heavens name, do we not do It2" Sure
enough. But we have, at leaat, Eve hun
dred regiments in the field, and could en-
Ploy in this work alone Of which Gen.
Wallace speaks, according to his account,
not less than twenty-fonr thousand blacks,
instead Of twenty-fOur thousand white
soldiers who are now under a waste
full policy, forced to do it. We should thus
gain, for active service a whole army
corps of effective soldiers, now teansters
and nOn-cOmbattants because the friends
of the rebels have,impOsed upon the cOun-
try and the army policy which is favor
able only to the rebels.

The rules for drafting adopted by Gov
srnor Morton Of Indiana, are eminently
juez and should be adopted in every State.
The number to be drafted in any place is
regulated BY the number Of volunteers
= which the place has sent to the war. Towns
which have already sent or more than
sent their quotas win be visited much
more lightly than those whose Inhabitants
hsEe shtunk from enlistment themselves,
~, andpsrhaps stri7en to prevent others from
doing so.

TIE Union Congressional Convention.
The Herald-after nearly a week has
paased-makes comment upon the reso-
lutiens adopted BY the Union Commit
tee on Tuesday last saying that aab-
sence" has prevented Gn earlier notice.
~. II We we're disposed to be critical we might
Inquire what or who it was that had been
ofA -''absent I" there being nothing in the Her
elds article to indicate whether it was atab-
seneen Of the resolutions, Of the editor, or
Of the whole Herald establishment. As
toots says ait is Of no consequence" even
i the last suppOsitiOn is true but as that
T paper thought it important for its readers
% know that somebody or something had
been 'absent it would have been simply
fair to let an agOnized public know who or
s Nhatit was.
But the Herald complains Of the LEAD
ER. Il says the LEADER gave abut a halt
inE Hmping hesitating support to the
action Of the joint Committee" But the
Herald has just said that the resolutions
- Ipsak for themselves, and no notice would
be required, if the other papers hadn't al
ready noticed them. There is unanswer-
sble argument for yOul The resolutions
needed no notice. They speak for them
selves. But the LEADER did give them
some sort Of support Therefore we
must notice them.
We didand do support these resolutions
1Ao There's not sentiment in them that we
Do not subscribe to. Our only objection
vas that they did not go far enough
They are good but might have been better.
The platform that was circulated through
the eountry-Whether gotten up by the
T1F LEADER as the Herald declares or by any
body else--was better because it was
stronger But these are good as far as
rsIEc they 60 and therefore we are in for them
heartily and fully. Has the Herald any
more charges to make2 If 50, let no aab-
neneeD cause them to be postponed.
