CAMP on STEWARDS CREEK !
Nay "a 1868. (


Eiitor of he Nashville Ua en-
Yesterday was memorable day in the
history of the 10th Hoosier Regiment.
Early in the morning, before we had even
yet tasted our "hard tack" and delicious
''sow-btlly," We were told to prepare for
review, for Gen. Steadman was going to
be on hand TO see us 60 through sundry
evolutions Ia Hardee, or some other man.
BE it known, that our "bloody" regi-
mentis at present divided; three compa-
MES being at the railroad bridge, and
the rest of the "heroic" band being en-
camped on the turnpike roAd--the dis
tance apart being about one mile.
by dinner-time we were ready for re-
view or anything else, and having Jared
sumptuously on "bacon and beans" we
"fell in" and STACKED arms" to wait for
the General. Our officers id (and Of
course they knew that the General was
coming down on train from Lsvergne
at two o'clock. Accordingly, the com
pany 10 which "yours" belongs, was
chosen to do the hoaoys of the day by
presenting arms" to the General as the
train came in. A "right flank" a short
march, aud fright wheel brought us
alongside the railroad, ready to act ac-
cording to orders. There we stood all
expectant; the smoke of the locomotive
could be seen in the distance; on il
came, nearer, nearer; we felt our dignity;
our Lieut. commanding stood straight
as bean-pOle" at the head of our
"dauntless band" ready at moments
notice to draw his "trusty blade" and
give us the word of command, "Present
armsl Quick as thought our pieces are
in position, we stand motionless as
statues, the train rattles by, somebody
waves his hat at us, and somebody else
laughs at us, the "dreadful reality"
breaks IN upon our minds, we've "pre-
sented arms" to a freight train, full OF
Government grub Steadman wasn't
there, We ielt "bored," Lieut.. says We
shall have "the beer' on the strength OF
il. We laugh it off and feel better.
After all the General didn't cone, but
he sent somebody, who ai,'nt come on the
train, but to use the "Old Kentuck" YER
nacular he came "hoss- back" The
two divisions Of our regiment met half
way, q cavlAcsde of "hossifers" rode
around us and looked at us, we then
wheeled into column and marched around
them, we stepped as light and easy as
though we were trippi G the fantastic

nounced "bully boys" for aught know
TO the contrary. noticed several car
riages containing precious loads of the
feminine gender, but as | don't wear
shoulder straps" l couldn't learn who
they were, or where they were from.
The day closed with horse race, which
caused negro boy TO be thrown and
hurt, and several "green- backs" o. be
lost aud won. When anything half as
momentous occurs sgain I'll let you

benefit accomplished by these soei, ties,
though not herAlded to the public, is we'll
known to every suffering soldier; for
their efforts alone make his sick bed
tolerable, and in q great manner supply
the place of absent friends. We, there

thanks for many late favors, and our most
earnest wish is that the soldier of the
Union may ever have suoh faithful and
non-inierested guardians TO administer
TO his wants.

INc1rING TO CIVIL WAR.

Tue Dayton Empire of the evening before
VALLANpIGHAM was arrested had an article
taunting the Unionmen. because he was not
arrested. The afternoon succeeding his ar
rest it published an article of the most inflam
matory character. 1t was, in fact, call up
on the VALLASDIGHAA secessonists to com
mence civil war in Ohio. The following ex-
tract will show the character of the article
the italics are those of the Empire:
eff the spirit of the men who purchased our
freedom through the fiery ordeal OF the revo-
luton still lives in the hearts of the people.
as we believe il does, then all will yet be we'll,
for il will hnrl defiance to military despotism
and rescue, through blood and carnage, if il
must be, our now endangered liberties. Cow
ards are not deserving of iiberties-brave men
cannot be en.laved. In our opinion, the time
is near at hand, much nearer than unthinking
men suppose, when it will be decided whether
we are to remain free or bare Our necks to the
despot,s heel. The contest will be fearful
one. 1t will involve the loss of many lives
and immense destruction of property. Men
in affiuence to-day will be beggars tomorrow
there will be more orphans and widows, tears
aud means, and suffering. But the men who
love liberty will emulate the spirit and daring
of the immortal heroes of the revolution, and
make the willing sacrifice. Let towards, and
all who are willing to be slaves, seek safety
in fight.''

skulkers came within our lines, who report
the rebel army retreating panic stricken, and
in confusion. An eye witness states that Lee
left his dead and wounded lying on the field
OF battle.
The latest reports are that our army now
occupies Fredericksburg and the nights ad-
jacent, and that Hooker's advance has over
taken the rear of the rebels and that some skir-
mishing has taken place between the parties.
had been taken by Gen. Keys, but this is is
credited. A few days however, will likely
suffice to set at rest some oil the uncertain ru-
mors that now prevalent in reference to
the movements of our army in the east.

Horsfall of Newport KY, who has retured
home on furlongh from the Army of the Cum
berland, is a real prodigy of soldier. He is
fourteen gears old, and four feet six inches in
hight. At the battle of Stone river this
youthful soldier, who was q drummer boy,
threw down his drum and rushed to the very
front of the battle, where he was found shoot
ing at the rebels. He was ordered to fbe
rear by General Rosecrans in person who wit
messed his conduct.

THE sERKs co. CONSPIRACY CASE.

The hearing in the matter of the charge
against Henry Huber and others, residents of
Berks county, of conspirng to overthrow the
government, was resumed in Philadelphia on
May 5th. Michael Groh was the principal
witness examined, and he testified in refer
ence to the secret, oath bound meeting. He
hestated considerably before he would say
anything on the subject He said that if the
District Attorney would take from him the
responsibility of the oath he would tell all he
knew; that he had been threatened only yes.
terday. The witness was told that he would
be compelled to tell what took place in the
private meeting. unless he believed il would
criminate himself. He then said he would
tell all he remembered. The first thing done
in the barn was ranging the members in or :
der to be sworn. Huber presided at the
meeting. The oath taken was: You do
swear you will oppose the Conscription, Con-
tiscation and Emancipation acts, so help you
Godl They were afterwards told that if any
one should disclose what had taken place it
wonld be bad for him. One of the signs
shown the members was the raising of the
bat three times from the head.
Witness said that Huber explained the sign
to be useful on tie field of battle The sol
diers would not fight each other when it was
found they belonged to the society One OF
the pass words remembered was '.Hord.'' 1t
was explained that sho'' and ..rd' meant
different things. Witness rememb bered that
s'rd" meant Richmond. Among other things,
Huber said, if you are drafted you shonld not
accept the notices. Ii they come for you,
load the guns with coarse salt or small shot
and hide under the fences as soon as you get
chance shoot at their legs, but take care not
to hurt anybody. That was the way, he said .
they did it in the other draft in Lancaster
county. Witness said that he saw DR.. Illig
G. Filbert and Huber at the meeting at the
barn. On the cross examination. witness said
that part of the oath taken at the secret
meeting was to support the Constitution and
the Union. He did not consider the remark
of Huber about the shooting of salt or fine
shot joke.
The District attorney asked for further
postponement, saying that he wished to ex-
anime other witnesses as to the force to be
used in resisting the draft or any other law
Mr.. j. Clancy Jones, who represents all
the defendants, but Huber, said that it must
be apparent to the District Attorney that the
society had not for its object the resisting of
any law by force that it did not seek to
overthrow the Government. 1t had been tes-
titled to that the members were sworn to sup
port the Constitution and the Union, and he
could say from full know ledge of the senti-
ments and feeling of the people of Borks
county that there was no intention to do any
unlawful act-that they preferred submission
to acts regarded unconstitutional rather than
anarchy.
The second OF June was fixed for the next
he airing.
