NJ, Camp Chase, Arlington Heighta, Octo-
Der, 26, 1862.
Yesterday, the 25h inst, the history Of this
company in the land Of ''secessia" commenced
With three chosen leaders and 90 determined
men, not one Of whom this morning was on
the sick list, this company ia ready TO go and
do wherever and whatever our country may
demand.
Our journey from our native state and homes
was long and tedious. At the various cities
where We stopped, we were well and plenti-
fully supplied with food, with one exception,
| which was New York, where we arrived at :
o'clock, Thursday morning, when we expect
ed to have a good breakfast, as we understood
that Vermont had an agent there TO feed her
troops as they passed through but when we
got on the dock and were marched past a tut
which was said to contain stew for us TO eat,
the ''boys" were disappo nted. We were
helped to little, but could not eat it, anC
hungry we had to 90 until we reached Phi Ia
delphia, at 8 o'clock a. M, Friday morning
where the Coopershop Volunteer Refreshmen
Society gave us good and bountiful meal, Il
which we did justice, and returned our thanks
by giving three good cheers.
BY a blunder somewhere, our Regimen
have no tents. Our Col. got us 'bivouacs,' anc
we put them up on our guns and passed tn
night very well. But to-day it is cold and tn,
rain descends in torrents, and these covering
give no protection from either. We howeve
live in hopes, as we anticipate getting tents il
the course of day or two
The 18th, 18th and 18th Regiments ar
near Washington, and we have seen several @
the ''boysn from each.
Our officers, Capt Jennings, Lieuts. Bos

they can to make us comfortable. The Capt

The Nashville Union of 23d, says;
The city IS completely cut off from the sur
rounding country by bands Of rebel guerrillss,
and marketing is beyond the reach of people
IN ordinary circumstances. Meat can be OBJ
tanned, but vegetables, butter, cheese and eggs
sell at such high rates that few can buy
them.
A toraging expedition, sent out on the Dist
inst, visited the plantation Of Gen. G. $. Don
elson, in Sumner county, who is in the rebel
service and an adjoining farm, getting as
subsistence as they could bring away-indeed,
bringing everything belonging to Gen. Donel-
son. except the overseer and negroes, amount
ing to over 300 cattle, 300 sheep, 800 hogs,
and turkeys, chickens, etc, in abundance, be-
sides 600 wagon loads of corn, oats, etc,
which they took into Nashville perfectly
safe
The people of Nashville are n a state Of
starvation. Tea is worth five dollars a pound
and little is to be had at that; beef thirty
cents pound; common brown sugar, ST a
pound -four nine dollars a barrel Every

A spy was caught by Federal pickets while

brought back to headquarters. On his per
son was found a roll of parchment containing
the names Of 205 citizens who were armed and
ready, at any moment the Confederates nigh
make an attack upon the city, to rise and as
sist in driving the Federal forces from the
city. Gen. Negley at once seized all the arns
in Nashville, and sent the spy to the peniten
tiary.
Gen. Negley, in command Of the post o

EMANCIPATION. 49, Col. B. Gratz Brown
writes to the ST. Louis Democrat that the
cause of FIRE dom is only DISTRACTED by those
who think more Of conserving the nteres
which few thousand shareholders claim in a
very precarious species of property, than they
do of reviving the ind stries that support more
than million Of non-slaveholders and insists
that Missouri should be included in the eman-
cipation proclamation. He says -
.'The proclamation of the president, put
forth beyond recall, and which takes effect at
an early day upon the states in open rebellion,
has settled the question of time connected with
slavery extinction IN Missouri. No constitu-
tional provision, act of emancipation, or any
other parchment can give the slave system a
lease Of life for any term Of years here after
the day when the war power proclaims free
dom to the slaves of the loyal as well as disloy-
al elsewhere, Conjoined to the fact that the
lines Of the army extend over the whole state
protecting with its agis every claim to freedom
that may be predicated upon rebel sympathy
as disclosed against masters, is the other anc
converse fact that no reclaiming fugitives car
be had through the army at all, and only
through intricate civil process when preceded
by showing Of answering loyalty on the par
Of the claimants. This regimen intrnsically
oblterates recaptpre, as may be suthcleatl,
