FROM THE THIRTEENTH REGIMENT
CAMP NEAR FAIRFAx c. H., !
January | SB3


DEAR WATCHMAN - A A" Happy New
Year" to the Waterman and all its readers
1t is now several weeks since have attempt.
ed to furnish you with anything by the way
OF correspondence. My reasons tor not doing
so are, that for part of the time have had
no time from my other duties to devote &c
writing; for part of the time | have beer

Gently, there has been very little of interest to
write. Since my last, the Thirteenth Regi.
ment have been moving planets"-frst
from Camp Vermont, below Alexandria, ia
Union Mills, where we did picket duty on the
Occoquan river, for about a week next
from Union Mills back to Camp Vermont
where we remained about week-just long
enough to fairly complete the barracks for
winter quarters which we had begun previous
to going to Union Mills and then from Camp
Vermont to this place, which is a little less
than mile from Fairfax Court House. Here
we took the place OF General Sigels corps
which had been ordered to move towards
Fredericksburg. BY ace | mean the brigade

the 18th, 18th, 18th. 10th and 10th Vermont
Regiments. Not being able TO come with
the Regiment when it first moved here can
not tell you much of the hardships and ex pos.
ures to which the men were subjected bui
from the fact that Tor nearly a week they
were without tents-saye the small shelter
tents, and some without even these-and the
weather as cold as any we have yet had, you
can readily see that the men could not be any
more than comfortable, and suspect the !,
were not quite that. This much is true, thai
the fatigue and exposures OF the last three
marches to which | have referred have told
more seriously upon the health of this regi
ment-and think the same is true Of the
other regiments of the brigade--than all oul
other service combined.
Since we came to this place our time has
been occupied in drills and picket duty, and
up to last Sunday night nothing had occurred
to disturb our quiet or give US any fears Of an
immediate attack by the enemy, though We
are on the extreme outpost IN thls direction
and liable to be attacked at any time that
the rebels can spare forces enough from Fred.

GEN. BUFFERS FAREWELL ADJ
DRESS.

General Butler, Just before his departure
issued an eloquent address to the people Of
New Orleans. Reviewing the address the
New York Evening Post says that General
Buffers words are the words of common
sense, well worth the attention of all men,
North as well as South. He has tried to re-
concle Union and slavery, and be. has found
1t impossible to maintain both. He was
pro-slavery Democrat. His varied experience
during the war, in a most arduous and re-
sponsible command, has shown him that if
we are to have free government on this con-
tinent we must destroy slavery the enemy Of
free speech, of free labor, and of popular in
teliisvuoe. The following the very in,
subject while urging the people TO return to
their allegence

GEN. HITLER.

The following is an extract from a letter
Of an officer who has been in the Department
Of the Gulf with Gen. Butler, who expresses
freely his opinion concerning the removal Of
the General from that Department. General
Butler has won the esteem of the soldiers Of
strong in their expression Of it. They will
Of course hear with pleasure Of his favor with
the government and the probability Of an
important command being offered him, which
will, no doubt, prove satisfactory to him and
his friends, however much his removal may be
shrouded in mystery. The letter says:
NEW ORLEANS, Dec. %, 1862
Well, they have done it at last, as you
have probably learned before this, and to-
morrow the only successful General in the
whole army Of the United States, starts for
his home and, for all that orders say to the
contrary, for private life. For what cause
Gen. Butler has been removed is more than
any Of us can imagine here, and, it is equally
as mysterious to the General himself The
only solution he has been able to give it is
this the secretary OF war in his late report
says that Gen. Butler, has managed his
Department with unusual energy and ability"
and he does not say this Of any other Cen
eral, he Butler very naturally concludes il
is for this he has been superseded. The dis
satisfaction and Indignation here ia very great
and the rebels have been more impudent for
the last few days than they have any time since
we have had possession of New Orleans. 1t
is great blunder, making the exchange,

PROFESSIONAL SLAUGHTER.


lhE oNLl oAfEl1 TUX lHE Aibks
When an Emperor of China issues an i'm
portant decree, he usually apprnds to it these
words-"Respeot this. A vermillion edict."
The style in which the great guns of the med
ical profession deliver their opinions, is little
less authoritative and dietatorial 1t is of
no use to demonstrate with them. Byron, in
his last sickness, told his medical adviser
(medical dictator, is the, more appropriate
term that he was bleeding him to death, but
the remark was unheeded and the lancet was
used again and again, until the professional
homicide was completed. We verify believe
that thousands of sick persons are killed every
year by the various modes Of violent depletion
in vogue among regular" practitioners. This
murderOus work cannot, we would iain hope,
last much longer A salutary revolution is
in progress Since the Introduction of Hon.
LowAY's celebrated Pills and Ointment into
this country, new light has broken in upon
us. We have begun TO discover that the dis
ordered action OF the great internal organs
can be regulated and health restored, without
a resort to mineral poisons That instead
OF mercury, which in the end wthers ''mar-
row bones and all, +" Holloway's PnLs, which
are exclusively vegetable, are all sufficient for
the cure of liver complaint, disorders of the
bowels, and all diseases arising from indiges-
ton.
We have also found out that scrofua, cuta-
neous eruptions, and cancers, Assesses and
all kinds OF ulcers, heal and are radically cur
ed by Holloway's Ointment. The reign of
calomel, causlic and other medicinal destruo-
tives, draws to a close. and we may possibly
live to see the day when Halloways life sus-
tanning remedies will be the abba and o,nega

Washington, Jan. 3.
Many Postmasters persist in sending
through the mails packages Of clothing, boots

for postage. This is pail able violation Of
the laws and regulations with which every
Postmaster should be familiar. The pack
ages are held for the legal postage az the dis
tributing Offices or Office of delivery, and have
accumulated to such an extent as to be great
ly annoying to those Offices and in a large
majority OF cases never reach the parties adj

sending. The laws and regulations clearly
define what is mailable matter, and prescribe
what amount of postage is to be charged
thereon, and further provides that all other
things, if sent by mail. is subject to letter
postage. To prevent further loss to parties
interested and the improper interruption Of
business at the large Offices, all poslmasters
are required to make themselves fully acquaint-
ed with the laws and regulations relating to
the postal service and the mailing of packages
