A Voice from the Army.
CAMP 20TH MAINE Vols,

BEVERLY FORD, VA, SEPT. IA, 1868.
To the Editor of the Press:
There is not much news from this part of
Dixie at present; something, however, is be-
ing done; all Is not entirely quiet on the Rap
pahannock. The I'd corps yesterday made
reconnaissance, bivouacking last night at Cul-
pepper, having captured twelve hundred pris-
oners, five pieces of artillery and many valua-
Bile stores. This may be the prelude to a gen.
erai move; at all events, our corps, the 5th,
is under marching orders.
Tonight an incident gratifying to all Union
friends occurred in the 20th. While the voters
of Maine, who are at home, have been listen
ing to the clicking wires as they gave the re-
suit Of the days ballotting, the members of the
10Th, who have handled bullets as well rs bal
lots, have been giving expression to their sem
timents on the gubernatorial question. The
election was conducted by line officers, the
men voting by companies as their names were
called by the lst Sergeants. The Field and
Staff voted by themselves. The ballot result
ed as follows
Samuel Cony received 273 votes
Bon Bradbury 600
Nearly every man present for duty and some
of the sick voted; no electioneering was done:
votes were prepared for both candidates, and
every man had an opportunity TO manifest his
preference; and the result is an unanmity for
burg and Gettysburg have been with us, am
sure Bradbury's vote would not have been
larger than it now is. After the result was
announced, speeches were made by nearly
every line officer, and If tongues were as de-
structive as bayonets, traitors at home would
nave Jared as badly as did rebels at Gettys-
purg. Ihe regiment then proceeded to Head
quarters, and we were there briefly and per-
Inehuy addressed by 1t Col. Gilmore, Mai.
spear, Capt Clark, and Chaplain French after
which some of the rank aud file were called
out, but as it was late, only few responded.
and they were dispersed, giving three hearty
cheers and tiger for Judge Cony and the
Union. Whatever may be the result of the
vote taken in Maine to-day, it is at least en-
couraging to know that those who have fopobt.
SO well. also understand how to exercise the
right of suffrage i have no doubt of the nj
innate complete triumph of the Union army.
nor can believe Maine has been so recreant
to the commonest principles of decency as to
insult her brave soldiers by giving any consd-
cradle vote for Bion Bradbury.
When anything of interest occurs, you NAV
near from me again. till then and ALWAYS af-
ierward remain, for the maintenance of the
onion, Radically yours, KEW

has has spread into a great light for the party
who then would have snuffed him out.
| often compare 10. Wright now and Jo.
Wright then-Wright at college with Wright of
the Abolition party. In those days, 10. WAS
very sparing in his sales of ginger bread for his
college contreres at Bloomington. He would EFT
off the end Of his cakes. thinking the customers
would not miss the nibbies. Now, he is quite
lavish with the gingerbread of demagoguery,
of which he desires the largest portion swallowed.

The news from Charleston has had n depress-
ing effect upon the army of the Southwest. A
reaction will probably take place when they learn
that on the night of the 18th inst Admiral Por-
ter aud his whole iron clad feet. except the Chill
licothe, ran the blockade of Vicksburg. The
Chillicothe has to be sent to st. Louis, or Cairo,
for repairs-she was damaged at Fort Pember-
to-she is another proof that you can shoot a
candle through a resisting body, easier than you
can a cake of tallow.
No guns were ever better handled than the
Chillicothe's eleven inch D thgren. vet the Rebel
rife ones did her immense damage. Big guns
are very slightly more effective than smaller
ones. We have tried 10th kinds of guns at
Vicksburg and elsewhere. We have onl~ partially
succeeded. Why not try 10. Wright's hydraulic
ram, which you know has wonderful qualities.
[See report of agricultural speech
With Governor Wright's ram and the total
suppression of whisky, the morale of the army
would improve AT once.
General Grant is making postmasters out of all
those Chaplains who are not making money on
their correspondence to Abolition newspapers, or
sub-agencies for the Adams Express Company.
The occupation for Chaplains is the removal of
one draw back-whisky must be outfanked, be
lore the grand army of the Southwest succeeds
effectively. W. @. +.
