spirit OF exultation, and feel as though it
would be some relief to me to let the friends
and neighbOrs know how we rejoice over
the recent victories and the gloriods result
o: the election, which We fancy will great.
y encourage our soldiers and dishearten
the rebels, and in short, hasten the deter.
mination of this wicked rebellion and
war. We have torch light PROFESSIONS,
speeches, hurrahs and every kind OF re-
joicing, though being quite busy in NV
capacity, and mingling very little in the
reveiry, yet have feelings OF inexpres-
sable delight in the prospect Of a speedy
RESTORATION OF the Government and laws.
When the voice Of the nation will 70 up as
one MAJ for joy and gladness.
Soldiers are passing and repassing here
al the time, many Of whom are on: their
way to the front to fight for freedom. while
others, wounded, sick or worn out with
hard marches and long exposure, are com.
ing IN to the hospitals and being sent home
or transferred to Northern hospitals. This,
IN additlon to the reshipping Of supplies
for the army, crowds this place with bust
ness, and renders it one Of the most stir
ring business places I was ever in for its
size.
The weather for the past ten days has
Deen very disagreeable, it raining full one
half Of the time; but it dees not seem 10
impede the progress of army matters very
much, Tor business goes on all the same in
stormy or fair weather, all laboring to at
tain the same end-Liberty and Peace. We
are anxious to close this fearful contest
and return to our homes, to spend the re-
mainder OF our days in peace and bask
