CAMP ONWARD, SAVANNAH. GA,
December S.-This has been 'red-letter
day." as Paymaster Major Cowdin called
on the Fourth Virginia about 10 O'Clock
this morning. He was given hearty re-
ception, as not only Colonel Taylor, but
all the captains, lieutenants. and enlist
ed men went up and paid their respects.
Together they kindly relieved him OF dooue
$4,000.
Colonel Taylor is daily receiving appll-
cations for discharges from mothers,
fathers, friends. and sweethearts OF men
Of the Fourth, but, according to the rule
which ne has adopted of being strictly
impartial in this respect, he has dlsap-
uroyed all OF them. There seems 10 Dc an
IMPRESSION abroad that the Colonel mas
full power in the matter or discharges
This is an error. He has not the power
10 discharge, nor has he the power OF
retaining By disapproval Of applications
for discharge. as evidenced by the fact
that he has been disappearing all apph-
cations. yet about 200 Of them have been
granted, notwithstanding. Nearly all OF
the discharges which have been granted
have been obtained through political In
fuence in Washington. Colonel Taylor
takes the position that he has no right
70 apuroye one mans discharge and dis
approve another.

for duty yesterday and to-day: Lieutenant

sending sums by mail has long been IN
