severe cavalry skirnlishe which have
been of constant occurrence since the sud
den advance of this amy. This advance
has been SO admirably timed as to allow
OF the capture OF Winchester, with its
Yankee garrison and stores, and at the
same time of the Seizure OF the gaps of
the Blue Ridge range. All the officers
were speaking with regret of the severe
wound received I'M this Skirmish by Maj
Won Borke, another Prussian, but now in
the Confederate States service, and Aid
de-Camp to Jeb Stuart!
After eating some sbfeakfast, Lawley and
rode 10 miles into Winchester. My horse,
minus his foreshoeS,- showed signs of great
fatigue, but we struggled into Winchester
at 5 p. M, where | was fortunate enough
to procure shoes for the horse.
The unfortunate town OF Winchester
seems to have been made a regular Shut
tlecock of by the contending armies. Stone
wall jackson rescued it once, and last
Sunday week his successor, Gen. Ewell,
drove out Milroy.
Before leaving Richmond, heard every
one expressing regret that MilrOy should
have escaped, as the Tecapture of VIM
chester seemed to be incomplete without
him. More than 1000 of his men were
taken in the two forts which overlook the
town, and which were carried by assault
by Louisianian brigade with trifling loss.

Ewell's advance into Pennsylvania. The
weather was cool and Showery, and all
went swimmingly for the first Ii miles,
when we caught up with McLawS'S Divis-
ion, which belongs to Longstreet's Corps.
ASmy horse about this time began to show
signs of fatigue, and as LawIey's pick
axed most alamingly, we turned them
into some clover to Craze, whilst we
watched two brigades pass along the road.

GOSPEL MEETINGS
During the past week the gospel meet
ings among the troops have been numer-
Gus, and largely attended. The Y. NJ. C..
A. sent down their men, well qualified
and earnest in their work, and Gen.
Howard, Rev. DR.. Dixon, Mai. white and
others, not forgetting Chaplain Bateman,
have labored early and late. They have
arranged TO have an Army Christian Com
mission, with tents, books, papers and
writing materials, follow the army, giving
over to the Red Cross Society the care of
the sick and wounded and transmission
of material supplies from home for the
men. They also suggest that all relief
supplies be sent to il.
Tampa has never before seen anything
like the present excitement. Trains to
and from Port Tampa run, crowded, every
day, the town is full OF soldiers till p. M.
and yesterday, in addition to the regular
church services, there were nine religious
services held out-of-doors or in public
halls. Gen. Howard and Mai. White
left for Mobile and Chickamauga this
morning. DIR. Dixon remains through this
week.

I hoping to hear the Cuban question, which
was then uppermost in the peoples minds,
discussed, | saw whole afternoon wasted
under the guise of it's discussion, by
three men who would not vote dollar to
aid any scheme of National defense,
maligning the Chief Magistrate and his
advisors, ashore and ahoat, and seeking,
regardless of the country's veal, TO make
political capital out of its embarrassment.
Man for man the Army of the United
States fears nothing on earth. Against
double its numbers, once we'll established
on Cuban soil, it would give no ground;
but it cannot work miracles, and TO have
sent $4,000 or 20, 600 over there would have
only been TO court disaster.
Whence, then, could any force come to
its aid? Manifestly, only from the Ma
tional Guard of the several states. But
here, too, the cheese-parer, Interested with
law making, has his say, and much as
we boast of our millions OF men upon
whom we can cali in time of war, not
more than three or four of the State
Governments have their forces in shape

goods, but recently, through the combined

have got the price OF open buggies down to

OPENING Up the Philippines.

When the new order of things is estab-
ished in the Philippine islands, there is
likely to be a great rush to Uncle Sans
Attest possessions. There will be a
scramble for wealth similar to that which
occurred when the Klondike gold fields
were discovered. No matter what busl-
ness a man is engaged in, he thinks more
of his purse than Of his health, but
wealth is worthless without good health
to enjoy it. Hostetter's Stomach Bltters
is needed by nearly everybody. Rich
and poor are cured by it Of constipation,
dyspepsia, general debility and malarlal
feyers. Women who are nervous, men
who are overworked, people whose nights
are sleepless, should take these world
famous Bitters if they wish to be cured.
