We learn from party who was in Mcclellan s camp

lion OF Berkeley that from various sources while there
he learned that Mcclellan had but 80 900 effective men
at the time Of his departure. The mortality liz the Fed
erai camps during the entire stay at Harrsons Land
ing and vicinity very great The deaths are said
to have averaged fifty per day. and Berkeley is now one
vast burying ground. Many of the Federal soldiers
were very communicative, and conversed freely on eve
ry topic introduced but would tell for what par
ucuIar locality Mcclellan was destined. They all an
swered to that question: that he going where he
could strike the rebels powerful blow. The officers
were particularly anxious to know the opinion of
Southern people in regard to them and laughed hear
tily when told that Pope, Hunter and Halleck were
considered consummate villains. Many articles of value
were left at Berkeley but bis immense train of wag-
CONS and horses were all carried off without difficulty
These are estimated TO have numbered one thousand
aud the first OF them started down the peninsula more
than fortnight SINCE showing that the evacuation was
even then determined on.
