On Thursday morning We passed through
B0oneeboro'. again meeting with cold looks
and NO chser, and By 5 o'clock in the evenir
found ourselves In camp within sight Of Hs-
gsrstown. having passed through several snail
villages, the largest and Prettisst Of any Of
many little towns on this route that have
ceased to take note of any Of them. Nothing
Of any interest occurred this day.
On Friday morning We again commenced
marching, though i was pouring down rain,
i. having been raining oil the night previous,

beautiful placs, and here We found some &C.
cessionis.s, many Of them being qaits shy in
their demonstrations, but at enc place the Ia.

Psnnsy lsauia limo. and now for the drss time
as soldiers We were treading ,rthsrn soil,
| and the bold aud quick tread Of the soldiers
| denoted that they were jus. where they
wanted to BE- We encamped that night come
| five miles in PepnsyIvauia. The country along
| the road looked remarkably well, the crops Of
wheat, corn, and oats being ths finest that
have yet eeen anywhere.

| former times. With the exception OF the
| stores being clo3sd, nothing seemed changed
| from the aspect that towns wore in former
days An exceedingly large number OF young
| men titled the sidewalks, porches, ana doors,
| but understand that greater portlon OF them
| are OF the late disbandsd two year troops Of
