FROM THE IsT CmAssEuRs
liz CAMP 16 MILES FROM RICHMOND,
Nav oath. 1859 (

In CAMP 16 MILES FROM RICHMOND, !
May gath, 1869.
DEAR PARENTS:
Yours wcs received in due time and
would have been answered sooner, but for
want of time. We are kept quite busy a,
present.
We have crossed the Chickahominy al
Bottoms Bridge, and now we are about
three miles from there, in an easterly di.
rection, taking us one mile further from
Richmond than we were at the bridge, it
being sixteen miles from here.
Since VIC left Williamsburg, we have
done little skirmishing, but no fighting.
We have now got the rebels into their
strong works, in the famous "White Oak
Swamp" Here we expect to do some
hard fighting, for when this place is taken,
we can march into Richmond with but
little opposition. We have prepared, in
case of retreat, by building breast works
in the most prominent positions; but |
don't think we will ever retreat, for "Lit.
lie Me-" don't do business that way. To
be sure he is not as fast as "Hod. Greeley
at Bull Run, but he is sure. He has
shown much more Generalship than any
other commander in Office in the grand
army of the United States. 1t was his
strategic movements that caused the reb-
els to evacuate Yorktown-wo took
Yorktown with no loss; Grant and Buell.
whipped Beauregard at Shiloh with loss
of fifteen thousand. Who gained the
greatest victory!
There was considerable cann0nading
on the river yesterday-some this morn
ing. think, with the aid of gunboats,
we can shell the rebels out, with but lit
tic loss on our side.
We are in pretty close quarters now
and | think the fight will commence in u
day or two, and we expect to fight pretty
hard.
Our position is ON the left near the
river. can't tell you near what place,
for | don't know, coming here last
night.
The land through here is pretty well
"ployed out" One day this country was
as pretty as any in the U. s., but its day
is over; Virginia will never be what it
was.
Deserters and prisoners are continually
coming in. just now the Provost brought
in couple of citizens. They were fair
looking fellows. must soon close,
or think we will soon be ordered to
march-not far hotoerer.
The boys are all well and hearty, and
appear to feel glad that the day is fast
approaching when they can meet the
"gray backs" face to face. This must
answer for the present.
Farewell,
S. s. KISINGER.

The efforts now being made by few
sympathisers, to resurrect the old corrupt
and rotten carcass Of Democracy, are dis
gustng to all true patriots. In peaceful
times il would be bad enough to ngitate
such loathsome subject, but especially is
il so at the present time, when a mon
strous rebellion is threatening the very
existence of the nation and il becomes all
truly loyal men to forget minor difieren-
ccs aud party names and band themselves
together for the common defence.
II is ridiculous for loyal men to talk OF
reconstrHcting the Democratic party
when everybody knows that nearly every
democratic state in the Union is in rebel
lion against the Government and nearly
all the great leaders of the party are now
in the rebel army. Are loyal Democrats
willing again to fratcrnize with DAVIS.
Toombs, WigfOll and Breckenridge and
call them brothcrsl Are they willing to
take the rebels back into fellowship
ugainl 1t would seem so.

BY official CORE ction received last

tie OF Saturday and Sunday before Rich.

immense amount Of public and private

the roads.are filled with arms, haversacks,
&C., thrown ewsy by his fleeing troops.
A lurge number Of prisoners and desert
efs have been captured, estimated by
Gen. Pope ct 2000. Gen. Beauregard
evidently distrusted his army or he would
have defended so strong position.
His troops are generally much discour-
