one Of the boldest demonstrations We have
heard Of lately, was that Of sailing into Port.
land harbor and selling revenue cutter by
rebel pirates. The captors were chased by
q Federal steamer, and to prevent the retak-
ing of the vessel burned it, and the crew en-.
deavored to escape in small boats but were
all captured, and are now in prison. There
are several rebel vessels that arc doing great
damage to the shipping on the New Eng.

steamers to break up this piratical band. =

as . hospital for the 4th Division. The
nansio0 is ! new building, Of two stories,
about one hundred feet in length and built
just in front Of the old plantation house. It
is situated upon a high plateau Of ground,
and the yard and adjoining g ound is COM
pletely surrounded by forest composed al.
most wholly Of magnolia trees, which have
given their name to the premises. The
dwelling has been built wi,a III the modern
appliances for ease and comfort, and is furn-

shaded with the oak, maple, cottonwood,
coffee tree, honey locust, and spresding
magnolia with its blossoms that almost rival
the rainbow in the brilliancy Of their hues.
The owner Of the mansion has gone south
with large portion Of bis slaves, leaving

from adjoining plantations have taken up

above the city, the Gordonsville road
bling our front AL was quiet Monday
except some shelling and skirm:shng,
until after ) P. NJ, when the rebels made
a sudden and furious attack along our
whole line. They bad been heavily re-.
inforced during the day from Lees ar
my, and, intendel to crush US. Our
front lines soon gave way, right Jeff and
front our men were falling back. The
Vermont Brigade was in reserve on
Salem Heights. The rebels drove every
thing before them, until they came TO
our Brigade, ,-they hurled three Brigades
upon US, but we checked them, repulsed
them, then followed them back to the
road taking many prisoners, bu: they
were closed ia on three sides of us, and
we were ordered back. We fell back
from one point to another, but was not
molested again, we crossed the river at
daylight, the last of the whole corps
Two companies that were on the skirm-
ish line stayed an hour longer, and were
brought over in boats after the bridge
was taken up.
The loss in our regiment during the
two days in killed and wounded was in
all about $50 men, and four officers. The
loss in our corps is about 5000, under
stand. Hooker probably lost ten or
twelve thousand. You win get the
figures. l have this much to say, I
don't think the rebels are any better off
for the late visit of the lst Vermont
Brigade. We met three TO one each
day, at the least calculation, and whip
ped them each time. A wounded reb-
ell officer Monday night said that was the
first time those troops were ever checked,
who came upon US. Our Brigade took
six or seven hundred prisoners, and many
of the enemy were billed and rounded
through our instrumen'al5ty.
Their loss Monday night must have
been very heavy. 1t was the sharpest
fighting have ever seen, or ever wish
to. Very Respectfully,
B. w. HIGHT.

over the w ay.

Gone from her childish purity
out from her golden day
Fading away in light so sweet,
where the silver stars and the sunbeams meet,
Paving a path for her silent feet,
over the silent way.
Over the bosom tenderly
The pearl white hands are pressed;
The lashes lie on her cheeks so thin
Where the softest blush of the rose hath been
Shutting the blue OF her eye within
The pure lids closed in rest.
Over the sweet brow lovingly
Twineth her sunny hair;
She was so fragile that love sent down
Erou his heavenly gems that soft bright crown
10 shade her brow with its waves so brown,
Light as the dimpling air.
Gone to her sleep with the tender smile
Froze on her silent lips
Bv the farewell kiss of her dewey breath,
Cold in the clasp of her angel Death
Like the last fair bud of fading wreath,
Whose bloom the white frost nips
Robin--hushed in your downy bed
Over the swinging bough-
Do YOU miss her voice from your glad duet,
When the dew in the heart of the rose is set,
Till its velvet lips with the essence wet
In orient crimson glowf
Rosebud, under your shady leaf,
Hid from the sunny day,
Do you miss her glance of the eye so bright
Whose blue was heaven in your timid sight
1t is beamng now in a world of light,
Over the starry way.
Hearts where the darling's head hath lain
Held by loves shining ray
Do you know that the touch of her gentle hand
Doth brighten the harp in the unknown land'
o. she waits for us with the angel band,
Over the starry way.

Religious Intelligence.

There was meeting of Episcopal lay
men at St. Pauls church in Boston, on
Tuesday of last week, to organize a
Church Union, the object of which seems
to be to make the lay element more pro-
minent in the work of the church. The
question of the probable interference of
such an association with the regular ad-
ministration of the offices Of the church,
occasioned considerable discussion on the
constitution, which was adopted with GER
tain amendments securing the authority
of the bishop and rectors in the new or
panization. Rev. Dr. Huntington is pro
minent in the movement, and defended it
in the meeting against the jealous oppo-
sition of some of bis clerical brethren.
The 73d annual convention Of the do
cese of Massachusetts assembled on We'd
nesday. The sermon was preached by
Rev. Wm. Babcock of Jamaica Plains.
The missionary sermon was preached in
the evening by Rev. DR.. Huntingdon
DR.. Huntington argued that it is law
and necessity of Christianity that its
work is of missionary character; it
must spread itself, for not to grow is to
die. The subject was treated under two
heads. that this part of New England is
a missionary field, and that the Episco-
pal church has in its doctrines and disci-
pline some special advantages in occu-
pying this field. AS evidences that Mas
sachusetts is a missionary field, general
statements were made to show that after
making all allowances for necessary alb
sence, at least one third Of the population
habitually neglect public worship. The
various causes of such neglect were emu
merated-as the natural repugnance of
the human hear. to holiness the false
standard of preaching, in which both the
people and preacher were in fault; the
mingling of secular with religious sub
jects in the pulpit the decay Of rever-
ence; financial difficulties in the cost Of
attendance upon church. To remedy
this last evil, it was suggested that the
church which shall first adopt the course
of breaking away from owning churches,
by building and making them entirely
free, will gain an advantage in saving
souls, and in the other evils enumerated
it was claimed that the Episcopal church
had some peculiar remedies lodged in its
keeping.
The Baptists held their anniversaries
at Cleveland, Ohio, last week. Accord
ing to the report of the treasurer of the
American Baptist Missionary Union, the
receipts for the past year from all sour
ces were $l03,956. The expenditures
for the year for missions, &c, were $780,
SOC, and for the payment of indebted
ness $6,937, leaving balance on hand
April /, 1868, of $512. The result of
the years operations is a gratifying one
TO the many friends of the Missionary
Union.

From the Tenth Regiment.
CAMP HRIN1ZELMAN, }
MAR PooLsvILLE, MARYLAND, :
Nav Dist. 1863,


FRIEND EARLE A month has pass
ed away since my last letter, but nothing
has occurred to disturb the dull monoto-
ny of camp life. We have taken sever
al prisoners, but with one or two ex-
captions they are descriers from the
two armies, that have unknowingly come
within our picket line and been unable
to escape.
The regiment is in good health, but
somewhat depressed in spirits at the fail
ure Of Gen. Hooker; yet their faith in
him is mistaken, and all firmly believe
that if any of our generals are destined
to lead victorious army into Richmond,
it is fighting joe
The weather for the past ten days,
has been very warm and pleasant, es-
pecially through the day, but the air at
night is cold, chilly and fraught with
heavy dews, unknown to the more north
ein states.
We have stockaded our tents again,
and are beginning to feel quite at home
in our new camp. Young pines have
been set out in front of the tents oil
through the brigade, which makes fine
shade, and gives our camp an appear
ance of neatness and comfort, that speaks
well for the taste of both officers and
men.
Last Thursday, Lieut. Gale on behalf
of companies G, B and X, presented
Mai Chandler pair of splendid revol-
vers, richly mounted with silver, as to-
ken of respect and confidence of the de-
tachment under his command the past
winter On the stock of each is plate,
bearing the following inscription Pre-
sented to Charles G.. Chandler, by the
detachment at Conrads Ferry. Major
Chandler was very much affected, but
acknowledged the gift by an appropriate
speech, declaring that they should never
bring disgrace upon the givers by any
act of his.
All spare guns, teams, and everything
unnecessary haYe been turned over TO
Government. Our sick that are unable
to 20 to their companies have been or
dered to Washington, and every prepara-.
ton is being made for move, but what
is TO be the destination am unable to
say. Grass and grain looks very finely,
especially winter wheat, which is be-
giniug to head out. But it is getting
late, so viii bring this to close. With
the best wishes for your success in the
cause of liberty and enlightenment, re-
main, as ever, yours truly.
