The following letter written from Freder-
icksburg, May 10th, by Rev. Jos. +. Lowering,
chaplain of the 18th Regiment, to Rev. DIR.
Bosworth of this city, will be read with in
terest We commend his suggestions to oil
the friends of the sick and wounded soldiers:
REV. AND DEAR SIR Il have few min
utes to myself after very weary days work
among our brave and suffering wounded.
= Concerning the Maine Camp Hospital
Association in whose work you are specially
interested, let me say that it is worthy OF the
highest commentator. Mrs. MAYHEM arrived
here on the morning of the 18th inst, in COM
pany with our State Agent, Mr.. Hayes, and
Mrs. Sampson who has been stationed as you
know at Washington.
Mr.. Hayes has been very efficient, laboring
in every possible way both in active personal
ministry among the wounded and in facilitat-
ing the work OF others. Mrs. Mayhem and
Mrs. Sampson, joined like two sisters in their
Samaritan spirit, have shown the most inces-
SAINT and jealous sympathy and the most con-
slant and painstaking tenderness.
or course l do not write all this from my
personal observation merely. | might per-
hsps appear partial in my judgment If unsup-
ported. Indeed l have only had yesterday
and to-day's experience among the wounded
In this city. My work has been in the front
close by our brave and heroic 18th, and there |
should be now if so many of the dear fellows
were not here needing all the help can give
them. But, know it will please you to learn
that before knew that Mrs. NJ. or Mrs S.
were here, Iheard the boys speaking in the
highest terms of them, and by their descrip-
ton and after acknowledgment / knew that
1t was your agent of whom they spoke.
Dear Sir, let me beg of you to use all your
influence to stay their hands. How long the
battle will rage about them we cannot tell,
but hold up their hands full of wine and oil,
and the great agony that follows war as
black shadow shall be alieviated if it cannot
be escaped. Allow me to say to you, what
have said TO others many and many time
the Maine Camp Hospital Association is a
Providence II Is a noble Christian blessing.
1t brings the great love of home closeto those
who battle for home, and lays cool hand on
the feverish brow and gives strength to the
fainting spirit.
1t is noble auxiliary to the Christian
Commission, which gives its bounties upon
Bonded knees, praying the Lord Jesus to
bless the soul, while all physical necessities
besides are satisfied.
believe you have had some witness Of the
terrible effects of war among the wounded at
Gettysburg. Without some such experience
you could form no conception of the terrible
condition of those in this city. 1t is the hab-
itation Of suffering, the most distressing -
| even because it is borne so nobly. o that our
| prayers could be more constant and fer
vent for these brave meH, God help them TO
endure-God help those at home to send CON-
| fort and health. God help us, who are here,
| to be faithful to our work.

NEW YORK, May rs.
The Heralds correspondent says General
Grant occupies the railroad between the rebel
army and Richmond, over which Lee has
transported all the supplies for his army.
Lee must cut his way through the web in
which he is entangled, and march his army
Richmondward, or he must crush the Army OF
the Potomac where it lies.
Another correspondent says it is now a race
to see who shall first reach the next line OF
rebel defences, supposed on the North Anna.
Lee is q trife ahead.
On the afternoon Of the 21st Gen. Wright
was attacked, but he soon put the rebels to
flight.
A dispatch from Carleton" to the Boston
Journal, dated Headquarters, oath, states that
the whole OF Grants army is across the North
Anna River, and the rebels repulsed in all
their attempts to stop US. The impression is
that Lee is really making for Richmond, hav-
ing given up all hopes Of stopping US short OF
that.

HANDBAGS for the Wounded.

To the Editor Of the Boston Journal:
In The Journal of May 20. DIR. w. T. G..
Morton who visited the late pattle- fields, says
What we need more than anything else, are
bandages of old cotton or linen, as they have
nothing but neD cloth, which is rough upon
the ,oouad and will not absorb moisture.
Can we lie upon our comfortable beds at
home, while husbands, fathers, brothers and
sons are thus suffering and do nothing to re-
leive them? Letus each give one sheet i'm
mediately for bandages, even though we lie
on bare mattresses ourselves.
Think of pine boughs for a bed, with rag
ged wounds, amputated limbs, and rough
bandages, then freely give, and God and the
soldier will bless. A WOMAN.
viii the Editor Of the Press please copy the
above notice, and add that citizens will be cal
led upon It their houses Saturday for anyold
cloth which they may have to send to Fred
ericksburg. L.

rg- We invite the readers attention to the
splendid card of our enterprising friends,
Messrs. BAILEY & MOVES, which appears in
our paper this morning. They are young en-
ergetic and persevering business men, who
are determined to secure success by actual
merit. Their stock OF School Books, Station
cry, Room Papers, &c, is equal to anything
ever offered in the state, and as Blank Book
manufacturers they have few If any superiors.
To this branch of their business Mr. Bailey
gives his personal attention, and as a practi-
cal book binder he is hard to be beat. We are
glad they have set an example in the way of
advertising which is calculated, il followed up,
TO satisfy the people of the State that they
have no need to pass by Portland in order to
supply their wants. Those who give them q
call will be pleased with the establishment, Its
proprietors and their gentlemenIy clerks.

Fight at Milford Station A Rebel Battery
Captured.
New YORK, May 25.
The Heralds correspondent says of the fight
at Milford Station, that Frenchs battery en-
tertained the rebels while the cavalry force
1anked the position, when they beat hasty
retreat, leaving behind battery, six officers
and sixty men, besides quantities of delicacies,
wearing apparel, &C., sent up from Richmond
the day before.
The Worlds correspondent says Of General
Grants last movement, Seen. Hancock NOV
ed on the night Of the Goth, fanked the right
wing of the enemy, and formed line of bat
tie southwest of the Mattapony River, in
commanding position. The country therea-
bout indicated that it had not suffered from
the desolation of war. Much corn and fodder
OF last year remain.
As secret as the movement was, 1t was
known to the rebels before hand, and only the
day before got off their wounded and army
supplies from Milford Station. Milford had
always been an important depot.
At midnight the rebels were driven from an
intrenched position. We captured six COM
missioned officers and sixty men belonging to
Ewell's corps.

Grants Flank Movement.

1t Is now generally believed that Lee will
fall back on Richmond, IL he can do so with
any degree Of safety to his army. He may
make a stand ON the South Anna, the last
river towards Richmond. Flank movements
ere generally considered not only difficult but
also dangerous in face of powerful enemy.
This movement of Grant shows that he feels
strong and able to take care of his army in
the open field.
Gen. Sherman Is "marching on" towards
Atlanta. Ali his movements are character
lied by good generalship and pregnant with
momentous consequences to the rebels. Gen.
Batter remains In his intrenchments, and is
probably waiting for further demonstrations
on the part Of Grant. No doubt he prevents
Beauregard from reinforcing Lee, and that is
one OF the main objects Of this expedition
The war news has an encouraging look.
