A Little War Talk.

Mr. EDITOR Since the war is al present
the great subject of interest. and since We
perhaps, have heard less from the 10th VI
regiment than most of those last ordered
out, have thought possible that few items
Of news might be acceptable from a
soldier with whom many of the people Of
ills place became acquainted while on duty
here last summer, and of whose son who was
killed in the Vermont Cavalry las; summer.
honorable mention was made in your paper.
From him | have received two letters
in the first of which he alludes in very
grateful terms to the kindness, liberalitv. and
good feeling exercised towards him and his
company by the people of st. Johnsbur,, of
which he says he is constantly reminded WHEN
he goes to his knapsack, and in 10 less CRATE
full terms refers TO the warm reception his
regiment received on their way TO Washing
ton and especially at Philadelphia. He then
after short recital of events connected with
their proceedings up to the last of October.
remarks tina: it is strange to US that our great
army is doing no more, aid that the boys
desire to see the enemy. and if the rebels are
to be conquered they wish to be about it, en-
curing if they are to advance no farther, when
this war is to end. He remarks that the
devastation that is connected with war is be-
yond all description, and enquiries with fear
full forebodings when will God lift the dark
veil that hangs over US.
He regrets to say that large proportion
of their officers are profane, immoral and in
temperate, and that an officer high in rank in
their regiment was recently found so drunk
that he could not manage himself, and was
so reported, and rather than be tried by
court martial, resigned. He writes that the
Sabbath is the most busy day they have and
that it so happened that or tina, day they
have always been on the move, anti that
their chaplain has only preached 20 them Two
or three times, anu that he says nothing 10
any one in regard to his soul; and thai ne
