Letter from Camp Mcclellan.

CAMP MCCLELLAN, Iowa, Oct. II.
MEssRs. EDITORS: Having had very
pressing invitation from distinguish
ed friend OF mine (Uncle SAM to visit
some of his unruly sons and try and
persuade them to be better boys, could
not well refuse, and am now here, en-
route for the scene of action, and think
ing l might furnish some items of inter-
est to the readers of the JOURNAL is my
only apology for this epistle.
| came into camp on the eth inst, and
have seen many men come in and sent
away. Having seen many volunteers
sent away, heretofore, think am safe
in saying that the drafted men and sub
stitutes will compare faverably with
usually kept in camp more than from
three to eight days. Owing to substi-
tutes frequently making their escape,
we have all been guarded very closely :;
but now the substitutes are separated
from drafted men and we have more
lenity. We have no choice of regiments,
but are assigned alphabetically to such
regiments as are in need of recruits.
The Muscatine county men were near
ly all sent away last week. "A great pOr-
ton ofthem went to the 18th Regiment
The men seem cheerful, but not a day
passes but we see tears coursing down
many manly cheeks, Oh taking the

Men usually draw their uniforms in a
few days after their arrival.

OBITUARY.

ANDREW SMALLEY LORD disd on the Sd of the
month, in the 24th year of his age, on march
from White River to Cape Girardeau. He was a
member OF Co, F. 35th Reg't Iowa Vol, and son
of Richard Lord OF this city.
The many virtues of the deceased entitle him
to more than q common passing notice. lie
was young man of uncommon promise for fu-
ture worth and usefulness, possessing a natural
healthy constitution and good abilities, and I'M
common hrmness of mind. He was a worthy
model of human perfection in his moral charac-
ter. He gave sanction to vice, even in its
mildeSt forms. Previous to his enlistment he
had never tasted any kind of spirituous liquors,
lac made no use of tobacco, he had never enter
ed drinking saloon other haunts of vice or
OF games. He never permitted falSehOod or de-
ception to tarnish his name. Where duty called,
all other feelings were held in obeyanoe. First
his country. and then himself, was his motto;
to put down the rebellion, should it cost our
justice to man, regardless of his condition
color. When a child his mother nsed to read
to him the story of Washington and his Ratchet,
and when he would tell her of a fault of his, she
would say to him, " that is right, Andrewr-tell
the truth and be a Washington; you will be
happier, and good people will love you for it,
while the bad will be forced to respect you. -
No doubt such instruction had much to do in
forming his admirable character. This trait
was strong even in death, for he said to the Or
derly Sergeant (while dying "Tell my father
that have tried to serve my country faithfully,
and that am clear from the vices of the army"
His religion was that
!" God is served when man is just;
Know then this truth, enough for man to know,
Virtue alone is happiness below" CON-.

his regiment, was eventually promoted
to Captaincy, and led his men through
the several campaigns in which they
have been engaged. In the early part
of the summer, and near the expiration
of his term of service, he was taken pri-
