and action in his case was prompt, as the
letter was published February 10th, and
the order for dismissal is dated February
Goth, though it was Of course issued some
days later. 1t is matter Of regret that
SO well tried regiment should have
even one traitor in its midst, and he a.
mong its officers, but at the same time it
can be said that the true men Of the regi.
ment were not slow in condemning in
the strongest terms Captain Tyler's dis
loyal sentiments.
Capt. Tyler entered with zeal into the
war in the beginning; was Captain in the
18th Ohio in the three months service,
and lost no time in organizing another
company for the three years service en-
tering the elst Ohio. During the con-

patching to the blind credulity Of the
poor fellows who are laboriug to make q

writing you. Ihnow not whether what I
have to say will prove interesting or not,
however, III leave you to judge Of its
merits yourself.
We are still occupying our old camp
ing ground, very comfortably located.
and enjoying very good health; plenty to
eat; well clothed, and in every respect
well cared for, and from present indica-
tions, you may ere long look for stirring
times in tho army Of the Potomac. Our
present popular commander, Gen. Joseph
Hooker. leaves nothing undone.
Friend Smith, We can no longer remain
silsnt. A sacred devotion to our coun-
try, and an ardent love for our homes and
more than al, an abiding fsith in Him
who rulsth over us. bids us speak. For
tho last eighteen months we have suffer-
ed, have psriled all things, endured eve
rything--and for what ? Why, for the
sake Of our conmon country. We have
left our bysiness, our families, our homes,
and have gone forth TO serve our coun.
try. We have endured hunger, thirst,
cold and heat, We have suffered every
thing q soldier eau suffer. When we
came into the field, va came with the
blessing, as We thought. Of the whole
North.
You told us to 20, and your blessings
would bs with US. Encouraged by their
words Of patriotism. We came to the war.
After enduring everything. suffering eve-
rything. aud doing this much in behalf
Of you and your children, and the ma
tion's honor, dear alike to all Of us-will
you throwa barrier in the way, and With
hold from US now your hearty co-ope,a-
ton, your sympathy and prayers? Will
they join with those ten fold worse than
traitors in the North. whose cry is peace,
when they know there can be no peace
until this damnable rebellion is crushed.
Why should they who suffer none Of
the dangers, nor none Of the hardships of
the field or camp, be less patriotic in the
