Capt. auinby's Experience.

Augusta Chronicle
Captain Quinby, DESTROYS Of the public
having it's curiosity satisfied as to where
the blame should rest for the condition OF
the soldiers, gives the following version:
There has been great deal of taking Of
reports of sickness by the men themselves.
1 received letters, hundreds of them, from
relatives of men at camp who had received
letters from privates telling of the awful
sickness they were suffering from and their
great need Of fruit and delicacies. In nine
cases out of ten I found that the men who
were writing letters home were not sick ar
all, and were merely painting these awful
pictures to get money from home. This
was true not only of my company, but OF
others. 1 am prepared to say that nearly
the whole of the illness was as to eating.
drinking and dampness They would drill
for hours in the hot sun and then rush TO
fruit vendors and fill up with bad fruit
or watermelOns then drink to excess and
go and lie down under thu shade of the
trees where the ground was damp. Less
than L per cent, counting shammers ana
all. of my company was sick, and l do rot
think that my company was especially
healthy. The death rate, l am frank TO
say has surprised me by it's lowneSs.
Just now it is in vogue to make Secretary
Alger and the departments wholly respon-
sible for camp sickness, but, in simple JUS
tice, q part of the blame must be put upon
the men themselves and upon officers who
did not enforce sanitary discipline.

occasion are requested to notify Mrs. Nc

COL. BARNETT's MEN
Busy Getting Ready to Come Home
Message from Secretary of War.

At the Governors Office yesterday a let
ter was received from Colonel Barnett. of
the One-hundred-and-dft y-ninth Regiment,
now at Camp Meade. Colonel Barnett
writes:
1--WE are shaping. our property accounts
| as rapidly as possible SO as to reach Indian
| apols at the earliest moment consistent
| with present orders. The three weeks we
were OH the march and bivouac we were
| separated from our books and personal eff
| fects, except those that could be carried on
| the march. Since arriving in this camp it
| has been necessary for US to bring our
| books and other papers up to the present
! date.
In regard TO the number of sick that
! will be with us on the train ! beg to say
| it is very difficult to give the figures at the
| present time as we have sick men in three
| different hospitals, and the practice of the
| department has been to furlough them di-
| rect from the hospitals. Whether that Will
| continue or whether they will Join the reg
| iment and proceed with US l am unable TO
| say but will telegraph you a few days be-
| fore departure as nearly as l can the exact
| number. / would like for you to have ar
| rangements made with the City Hospital in
case we have any sick men with us who are
seriously sick, so that they may be trans
| ferred at once to the hospital. viii you
| have sufficient tentage to care for the
milder cases of sickness? Can we depend
! upon the quartermaster's department there
| for ambulances and wagon service? We
| blankets and bedticks with US. Please no.
| tify us as to what your pleasure is with
| reference to the place of disembarking.
Accompanying the letter was one from
Major Stunkard the regimental surgeon
who says, in part The health of the regi-
mant is improving daily. Typhoid fever
seems to be on the decline and most cases
! of illness are now due to malarial causes.
| At present twenty men are confined to
| quarters None is seriously ILL.,"
! During the day a message was received
| from Adiutant General Corbin saying: For
the present the secretary of war does not
see his way clear to order the further dis
charge of any regiments from your State.
The Journal some time ago printed the
fact that the observation-disclosures first
Regiment would be one Of those assigned
Fitzhugh Lee, and the telegram from Cen
| eral Corbn is now taken by the state Off
! sxtieth will also be used in garrison duty
! during the evacuation of Cuba by the Span
