The Intellirencer's Correspondents IN
teresting Letter.

HH-N4aN.EH-FT
Special Dispatch to the I%ntelligencer.
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, May 49,
Camp Lee IS an incident OF the past with
the First Regimen: OF West Virginia
Volunteers. At about 4 o'clock Monday
afternoon word was received at regi-
mental headquarters at Camp Lee that
we would break camp for our journey to
Chickamauga tina. day, and a general
shout OF joy was sent up by the boys in
blue. Allswere eager to get to their
next camp in the Sunny South. The or
der was shortly afterward given TO pack
up all individual property IN order to
strike camp in the shortest possible
time. During this time clouds began to
appear In the west and shortly a heavy
rain began 10 pour down on camp and
1t was soon a sea of mud and water.
Just as mess was sounded on the bugle
the order was given to have all the tents
in readiness to dep at 7:30, and after
mess there was another rush in the
Edown-pouring rain to pull stakes. In
exactly forty-ive minutes after the first
buSle sound TO break camp, Camp Lee
was no more so far as tents were con-
scerned. They were all packed and car
red to the front OF the camp ready to
be hauled 10 the train.
Camp broke up by battaltonc, in their
order OF place In the regiment, and

CENTRAL COMMITTEE.

The central committee to serve meals
to visiting delegates at r~efreshment
tents and booths that are to be erected
and conducted under the supervision OF
the committee In and near Epworth
park. formerly Bridge park, where the
conventions sessions are to be held in a
large circus tent that was recently con
tracted for by the committee. 1t Is al
ready realized that the attendance will
be SO large that the restaurants and
hotels cannot accommodate all of them
for meals. In addition, much time will
be saved by having the refreshments
tents so convenient OF access after ses-
sions OF the convention in the big tent.
The central committee also arranged
for a big trolley excursion to Wheeling
the first week In June. when Epworth-
ians from Bellaire. Triadelphia, Ben
wood, M%oundsvllle, Martins Ferry.
Bridgeport and other surrounding towns
are expected to meet at the Fourth
street church with the Wheeling Ep-
worthians for the purpose OF getting In
touch with the convention arrange
ments and to assist their Wheeling
brethren In the reception and entertain
ment OF the visitors.
1t was decided that members of the
convention committees would wear
white caps with red band.

any wild rush to get on the ticket, for

II the Republicans make the majority
less than 1000 it is because they are too
busy with minor matters.
II the current rumors prove happily
true, the pudding mill and plate mill at
the Wheeling steel plant will get on
shortly. 1t is said on good authority.
thatsthe management will let the men
know within a few days, and 1t Is hint
ed that the company has clinched some
big orders. The resumption would be
joyful news. The puddlers haven't
worked since Christmas, while the plate
mill has been idle for over six weeks,
and these mills going or would result in
the start Of the company's coal bank.

MARTINSBURG, ". Va, May 10
The exercises at the meeting OF the

with a report on Remedies" by DR.. c.

1ncypidius," with cases by DR.. Clyde A.
Ford on Fractures of the Patella" and

ton.

FENCES OF THE BOYS IN CAMP.

Wheeling young men DESTROYS OF
forming q company OF the National
Quart had better get o move on or
Moundsvile Will have organized Its
second company before Wheeling has
one. Not satisfied with already send
ing nj company to the front, q number
OF young men In the Marshall county
town are already bestlrrlns themselves
TO organize another, and last night took
the preliminary steps toward this end.
The movement In MoundsvIile Is
fatheredi by Mr.. J. Z. Roberts, who has
been authorized by Adjutant General
Appleton to raise a company. and last
! evening he called q meeting at the ar
mory aud received sufficient names to
warrant going ahead. This energy on
the part OF the Moundsviile people
ought to stir up the Wheeling boys
The fact that they wrote to the adju-
tant general for authority SHOWS they
are up and doing. and If0Wheeling
wants q company 1t can't afford to lose
any more time, for It Is quite probable
that M%oundsville isn't the only town In
the state which Is making efforts to,
land a company in the reorganlzed
Guard.
Wheeling can not only raise a splen-
did company. II the proper Impetus Is
given, but 1t a do more. Two compnn-
les could be organized here beyond a
doubt, and especially during these stir
ring times. II little M%oundsville can
muster two companies. this city ought
10 organize a like number without try
Ing hard, while Huntington not only
maintains two companies. but has also
the Gecond Regiment band.
1t Is suggested to the Wheeling vol
unteers that they make application to
Adjutant General Appleton Immediate
~, and It Is reasonable to expect an or
der similar to that received by Mr.. Rob-
erts. The boys should keep their ranks
Intact, and II General Appleton Is COM
municated with, probably In a few days
q reply would be received which would
authorize the work OF recruiting a COM
pany OF militia. Mr.. Huseman and, the
young men associated with him lost
heart somewhat BY the order OF things
which prevented them from going to
the front before, but they have a
splendid opportunity to be mustered In
the National Guard now. It Is also a
probability that the President will make
another call shortly. L

Translated from Heins,1

Translated from Helmet
Outside the blast is making riot,
And through the darkness the snowflakes
fall.
Here in my little room all is quiet,
Warm and dry and so snug withal.
Musing, | sit on my cushioned settle,
Facing the firelight's .ftful shine
Sings on the hob the simmering kettle,
Songs that seem echoes Of "auld lang syne. -
And close beside me the cat sits purring,
Warming her paws at the CHEEKY CLEAN.
The flames keep fitting and Pickering and
whirring.
My mind is Tapped in a realm of dream.
Many long, long forgotten summers
Rise up, wraithlike, before my view,
Some in the brightness of masking mummers,
Some with their splendors bedimmed in hue.
Lovely, serene faced women sweetly
Meanings divine in a glance convey.
Revelers, mingling among them fleetly,
Caper and laugh and are madly gay.
Marble gods in the distance tower.
Near them, dreamlike in beauty rare.
Is a fairy grove that has burst in flower
And sheds perfume on the moonlit air.
Castles full many of wizard story
Totter along with their crests awry.
Knights behind them, in full planned glory.
With troops of their squires, come riding BY.
IT'S gonel The beautiful dream is overl
Away like a phantom the pageant drawsl
Oh, dear, the kettle Is boiling over,
And pussy is yelling with scalded paws!
