THE Fun( ilLSElZSE.—Everytl.ing con necter with this regiment, of which our 'boys of the Cookman Rangers form a part, Is of interest to our renders. It has never been neWspepor regiment, however, not imving received even bare justice, as far as - we have seen. It's movements have been inachronieled, and its excellent condition 'unnoticed by newspaper writers, except lo cal editors having a direct interest in one or other or its companies. At length we find in the Washington correspondence of the Philadelphia P..esa the following merited corrzliment to the eff,ciency, of Col. Sim mons, his subordinate• , cnd command. The correspondent—"Saut-OccAstox.u."--visits 'the Reserve Corps, and after noticing other regiments, says: In the afternoon we visited Col. Simmons' regiment, the fifth Pennsylvania Reserve, and were again delighted with all we saw. Colonel Serieica G. Simmons entered the ar any more than twenty-seven years ago, from .West Point. During the Mexican war he was promoted to a captaincy, and recently, nn account of a wound in the foot, was gran ted a fu'ilough for three year;. Py permis sion of the War Department ho . took cool rnang of this fine regiment, which, thanks to his skill and talents, is now one of the :best drilled and most efficient in the service. ►Their evolutions were almost as interestinA as a battle. After a manner of his own lie threw them into hollow .7:rm:es, four ;:cep. to resist cavalry, in fewer seconds than it takes to write this short sentence. Besides many other movements,he made them charge on a full run, with a shout in U 1114 0 ,11 from nine hundred throats, so load and terrific that if 1. had not icon them, I would have sworn there tt•e,e nine thousand instead of Gino hwidrsd— •• Al oiler It, we • 11 Within thin dork Yrern•uat dell, lisp fiend. tioin travels hod fell, 11lid tolled Jed 1).”...dnw0 to hell."

The com panies oompricing the regiment are from the interior, aSfolloWs: 'A, Jersey Shore, Capt. Dllrrinn; B, Northumberland, Capt. Taggart; C, Clearfield, Capt. Lorraine; D.

' PAM* R/Glii 3 F 1 UEGIMENT.-70 are glad to ise 'by the • Lancaster papers that Cu).. thie.tright has every prosiect`Of filling up his regi ent, speedily—mainly with com panies from this county. Some five compa nies, we believe, ace entirely full, and the additional companies'-are fast recruiting.— The county seems to lie fully aroused, and volunteers from the country aro rapidly_i joining one or another of the companies.-1 This Will ondoubtedly be one of the finest regiments in the service. There has been some unpleasant feeling excited by the failure of certain iben from Pittsburg promised to Col. Ilembright, to . join the regiment at Lancaster. These stop ped at Harrisburg, and have been mustered into the 2tr.to service. The I::.ri»:ess has complained-hindly of the injustice done Col. liambright, and reflected on the "paper Cola- nets" at Harrisburg. Some of col. Welsh's friends hiive considered this a fling at him, he being in command at Camp Curtin; but we scarcely think the term was to be applied so ill-naturedly and unjustly, To remove every excuse for reflect i on cn Col. Welsh, on the part of any one, however, we have made inquiry as to his connection with the transfer of the area at Harrisbtirg, sup posing that as ho was in command he would necessarily reecive them. It appears that last week one company arrived from Pitts burg, or. an order to Washington, with the privilege'of ae'aahing to ary Pennsylvania Regiment at Harrisburg. The Captain ap plied to Cul. Welsh, informing him that he had' been recommended to join Cul. Ham bright's regiment, but that many of his men insisted on joining a State regiment. Col. W. advised him to go to see Cul. Hambright, at Lancaster. The same day the Captain marched his company Co Camp Curtin and had them mustered into the State service.— On Sunday, in the formation of the new regiments, the company, at the . request of the captain, was ordered into Col. Ifnipe's Forty-Sixth Regiment. As we have said, we dor,it believe any reflection 4pon 001. Welsh was intended by the Exprees, anal we know it weak policy to defend a man before ho is attacked; hut inasmuch as the language of our Lancaster eotemporary may be interpreted into a per sonal allusion to our friend; re have thought best to give the facts as they occurred. Cul. Hambright himself is too gsll2;nt a man, and too well acquainted with Cul. Welsh's qualities' as man and soldier, to entertain any injurious opinion of his fairness and ecurtesv. Tun Ito MovEmENr.—The nomination of a strict party ticket by the Republicans last week has reen;tc.; in the outspoken pro test of the ruo - re itaependent members of the party and a ektl, signed by mr,ny of the most influential men in the county, for a mass meeting, independent of party, at Ful ton Hall, on next Monday fur the purpose of nominating a ticket of no-party ITlNl—men who will be unobjectionable to all parties; men who command thr, confidence of all vo ters; and above n 1 men who will accept of fice rather than seek it. This is the avowed object of the opposition and the meeting— whether it Will be strictly carried out is to be seen. Of course the Pemocracy join in the movement heartily. They adjourned their convention on Wednesday without making a nomination, as was expected. If they will now wisely hold off and permit some of their moderato men—men of un doubted Union sentiments—tobe nominated, their disinterestedness will be manifest.— They can, however, seriously clog tide move ment by dictating the nominees from their party. A portion of the advocates of this popular uprising. from the Republican side, may also serku‘ly damage the cause. Some of the most ever workers are not the most disinterested men. Friends of some of the disappointed candidates of last week will strive to obtain, if not control of the meet ing, at least sufficient influence to secure the nomination of their favorites. Any sus picion of tho introduction of the, foul system of "wire-working" will kill the movement beyond hope. We advocate the selection exclusively of men who have not asked offices; of men, who, whilst their political opio;ur•,c may be decided, one way or nnother, have not been partisan worrf.-.; of men with whom the 'sinking of party in favor of the country is not a mere pharse, but a reality. If such men are put in nomination no man will ask their former political connection, but all will give them their vc.tcs as Union men. We want no peace men, however—no compro' misers. This defeat of the dominant party (it mast ovate) must not be tortured by the sneaking sympathizers into a euccesa of peace principles. It shall rather be the deelarmi m of Lancaster county devotion to the Union before all other interest, and her determination to uphold our Government in every effort to er:terotinate this accursed re bellion. It will be a peace movement in the right direc, ion —peace and good will between home parties; n•:.r and desolation to all se cessionists and a strong rope and short shrift to all sympathizers.

PHILIP SHREINER, Chairmau. Taos. Cowxs, Secretary. Our Army Correspondence CAMP TENNALLY, Sept. 12, ISGI Den SrY:—Since my la•t our regular routine of hard work has been somewhnt lightened by picket duty, and increased by a rather tough march, of n hie!: more bi and-by. W. had the usual eight hours' drill until Saturday at noon, when we received orders to cook twenty-four hour's rations, pack in haversacks and rpporp on regimental parade ground at 4 o'clook for picket duty. The "Famine having just recovered from a slight indisposition was exempt, so he saw the boys march out with mouths already watering in anticipation of the peach, water melon and corn forage they had hoard of as abounding in the land of promise. Our previous immunity from severe dis ease, accident and death seemed here, all at once, to fail us. On Saturday evening one of the men of Company I), an inmate of the hospital, died, of what disease I did not learn. On Sunday morning, before day, one of the corporals of Company A, while on picket strolled into the fields looking for tomatoes. Returning, he walkel slowly, stooping nt nprly every step, examining the vines, and was mistaken by one of the sen tinels fur a prowling "seccsb," trying to creep upon him. The sentinel fired, the minnie ball taking effect in the corporal's groin. The wounded roan did not fall, but walked up to and shook hands with the sen tinel before ho gave way. The surgeon of the Penna. Sixth, nearest the spot, was sent for, who conveyed the man to our hospital in an ambulance. It was difficult to judge the extant of the injury, but from the strength of the patient his recovery was thought possible by the surgeon, and he seemed getting on very well. On Monday morning, however, he quietly slept away. These two deaths, especially the latter, have dread a gloom orer our camp. On Monday, Major Ryan, of Pe7a., re-. deemed the credit of the Commonwealth and made the hearts of the °facers glad by appearing with their back pay for servants, which was refused when the regiments were paid off' for the State service, at Harrisburg. That all hands should be glad at the same time, on the same day arrived n box from Columbit with paper, stamps, pipes and to bacco, all of which articles were nt a pre mium. A formal vote of thanks on the part of the company would be no more than the committee's due, but they will kindly ac cept the acknowledgements of the gratitude of all hands now expres.cd through the me diu in of your correspondent. We shall never forget the many attentions of our friends at home. On Monday at noon each company was detailed to police their respective quarters and company drill ground, in preparation for the arrival of Governor Curtin, who would next day review the Po :erre!, and rireseht, regitne'utal colcrs. In the evening we were pleased by the appointment of our Corporal of Engineers, K. W. Smith, of Wrightsville, Drum Major of the Fifth. Wo were made additionally clad when we learned by the order to have fifty privates in full uniform, with two commissioned offi cers—et hands with boo's blackel—to report on regimental parade ground at 5 o'clock next morning, that the Fifth had Leen de tailed as guard of honor and escort of Gov ernor Curtin from Washington City. Tell you what, friend Spy, the boys felt good on tho strength of that. CT course we were on hand, and mode the march to Washington by about half-past eight. We-loft with the Governor in tow a little after nine, reaching the review ground about a quarter to tvrolee, all hands dog, tired but nano the less elee with the honor. The sun was broiling, the dast• very thick, and the march fully fifteen miles; but the old Fifth had not been to Western Virginia for nething, and came up on parade•appa rently unpunished, and with as much credit as any regiment that had not marched n mile. Of .. course the paperp' r have had fulJ ac-. countt:cf the review, s.nd my province is, only to :re,herd the part taken by our own . regimcit. Gen. McClellan, president Lin coln, Govetdor Curtin, Gen. McCaTl, Assist ant Secretary :Scott, were all faces with which we have become familiar. Besides these there were many unfamiliar great ;ens. The review was acknowledged_ as a very creditable one nil around. Whilst waiting the appearance of hisiEs oellency, at Willards, I met an old Colum bian, C. S. Haldeman. .It did me good to see a home face. In passing through Georgetown on our return march my atten tion was directed by Corporal Shreiner . m the hospital door, where I recognized Jos. D. Iyichols,lorfr.erky principal of the Wash:- ington Institute. I don't know whether I have more to say now, or not, fur every other consideration has been driven from my head by the order "Company fall in to receive your payl" When you have been in a dead strapped Iregiment awhile you will appreciate the force of that appeal. For the Colombia Spy MR. EDITORi-My summer arrangements being nearly completed, I am again about to leave home to engage in a more extended. and perhaps more useful range of profession al duties. I beg to say through your col umns, to my friends and those whu contem plated corning under my professional elm rgp. that after to-day, I will not receire any more patients than I have at present under treat ment.

A serious steamboat accident hod occurred, killing fifteen persons and scalding twelve othe r s. The recruiting for the contingent to be raised in California was going forward rap idly. Emigranto were coming in from Texas in consequence of the desperate con dition of affairs produced in that State by Seeessi.in. Another murderous attempt has been made by the Secessionists in Missouri to de .troy a train filled with soldiers by burning the timbers of a bridge. Fortunately it was discovered in time. Pe-patches Irma the South state that Gen. Sidney Johnston has been appointed to the command of the Confeder.ttes in the Mississippi Valley, superQeding Brigadier General Polk. General. Joseph Johnston and Beauregard hold joint ix:mutant' in front of Wa.hing,ton. Governor liagoffin, of Kentucky, has de monstrated his entire disloyalty by vetoing the resolution of the Senate directing the withdrawal of the Confederate troops front the State. Both Houses of the Legislature immediately passed the resolution by the necessary two-thirds vote. Tho resolution requires the Governor to issue a proclama tion directing the Confederate forces to withdraw. If the Governor refuses to issue the proclamation he wi , l no doubt be re , moved from office. A bill has also been in troduced into the Legislature declaring it felony to aid the war by enlisting troops fur the Confederates, or inducing any one to do so, or by joining nr parading with any cont party with the intent to join the Confeder ates. The invasiun of Kentucky by any citizen as it Confederate soldier is punisha ble by death. This net is to go into effect in ten days. and will not be applicable to those who return to their allegiance within sixty days. The steamship Champion has arrived at New York with the California mails and $1,000,004 in gold. From Hatteras Inlet we learn that four vessels, loaded with shoes and other goods fur the Southern Confederacy, had come in there, supposing the place to Le still held by the Confederates. They were seen in tlis offing diiplaying the Ccnfederate flag, and• pilots .were sent out to assist them thr;ugh the Inlet. Once in they were seized as prizes. 'Tvre of the vessels were from the British provinces. These 'seizures show how iimportlnt has been the commerce through this hurt. From Fortress Monroe we learn that the Confederate stehMers came down the Jirnestown river on Saturday and fired upon the bloc: f inding vcssels at its mouth. They retreated so soon -es guns of a sufficient range were brought io bear on them. An armed steamer alSo came down from Norfolk on a reconnoissance, but kept out of range.

The dross of one of the ballet girls caught fire and the flames were com- municated to the dresses of fifteen others, all of whom were injured. Six of the girls died next day, and several others subse- quently. It is reported from Missouri that Green had arrived at Glasgow with a considerable force, and had there captured the steamer Sunshine, held by a Federal guard of four teen men, arid. containing 4,000 stand of arms and a large amount of provisions. Prisoners or deserters from Gen. Hardee's army, say that a fight has occurre .1 between the Missourians and Louisianians in camp, on account of the alleged cowardice.of the State troops in the battle near Springfield. Gen. Ilerdce was falling back on Pocahon tas and the Missourians were dispersing. rARMER Goy the Spy A rumor was current at St. Louis that Generals Price and Rains were within 40 miles of Lexington with a force of 15,00 G men and 13 pieces of cannon; but it was not generally credited. FOLIO Western Virginia we learn that on Thursday the Confederates advanced toward Elk Water and Cheat Mountain Summit.— They gained the Summit and pushed on to ward Elk Water. Our troops met them, dispersed them, and night fell. Cri Friday morning two reginte:tts of National troops were sent to cut their way through to the Summit; this they sueee ded in doing, the Concedera:es retrea,ing in disorder. Two Confederate ..I6.•er : s were shot near the camp nt El kwater; ,ore is said to be Col. John A.

The Confederates ac knowledge that the gun boat Yankee was disabled, and had OS killed and a large Hum bqr wounded. By :vivito from Kingston, Jamaica, we learn tliat the United States steamer Pow hatan arrived at Port Royal on the 23d of Augur, and that she and the United States trigaie Richmond left on the 25th—the for mer for St. Thomas, to coal there, and the latter in search of the Sumter. A letter re ceived at Boston from Surinam, states that the Sumter was still there on the 21st, des titute of coal and provisions, and her com mander had threatened to fire upon the town 'Foot supp!icd. President Lincoln hhving, informed Major- General Fremont that the clause in his proc lamation of the 30th ult., in relation to the confiscation or property and the liberation of slaves, appeared to be objectionable, in its non conformity to the Act of Congress pass ed on the Gth of August last upon the same subjects, Major General Ireinont, in reply, expressed a preference for an open order for the modification of the clause. The Presi dent, on the Uth inst., accordingly trans mitted an order for the clause to be so mod ified as to conform with and not transcend the provisions on the same subject of the act referred to. From Western Virginia WO have news that Gen. Lee, with the main army of the Confederates, attacked the entrenched United States forces at Cheat Mountain, under Reynolds, on Sunday, but ,vas repulsed with considerable Confederate loss and little or none on our side. Cul. MeCook's regiment took seventeen prisoners. Gen. Pox was advancing along the Gauley river against Wise and pluyd, who were retreating.— Further accounts speak of a skirmish in which three hundred Ohio and Indiana troops dispersed three Tennessee regiments at Elkwater, completely routing them and killing eighty, while only eight of our men were killed. General Roseerans was at Camp Scott, directing the arrangements of the advancing forces, The news from Missouri is important. A de.erter from the Confederate camp at Co lumbus reports that Gen. Johnston is ready to march on Paducah, Kentucky, with a force of ten thousand men. Gens. Price, Rains and Calib Jackson arc combining in a grand foree of twenty thousand to attack the Federal lines near Jefferson city; Jackson intending, it is said, to make that city the Capital of the States. A despatch to the St. L ,uis Republican st.ttes that Gen. Price with a force of fifteen thousand men attack ed Lexington on Thursday last, where five thousand Federal troops were entrenched. Gen. Pope was within roach of them with eight thousand 4thlitional Federal troops.— The result of the fight was not known. Colonel F. P. Blair, Jr., has been arrested at St. Louis for insubordination, consisting of attempts to effect the removal of Gen. Fre mont, using disrespectful language, &n. The late engagement between Rains and Montgomery is reported to have commenced by Geoeral Rains, with six hundred men, approaching Fort Scott and seizing eighty mules belonging to the Government. A messenger was sent to Montgomery, who had five hundred men. Ile pvsued Rains (or eleven miles, killing several of hie men, when, coming on the main body of the Rebels, two or three thousand men, a battle commenced. After two hours, Montgomery, not having artillery, slowly retreated, keep mg up a running Light until night. Another railroad bridge has beet! burned by the Mi.souri Secessionists, precipitating a locomotive into the stream and killing the enginec.r. General Zollikofft-r, of Tennessee, has sent a message to Governor Magoffin, notifying him that ho had taken possession, with the Confederate troops, of Cumberland and the Three / L - Mg 'Mountains in Kentucky. Rey nolds, the fugitive Lieutenant governor, also sends an impudent message, inquiring what course Kentucky intended to take. May Kentucky give him the answee lie deserves! Affairs in Kentucky are appreciating a crisis. At Louisville the Home Guards have prepared for service, anri,a portion of Rosseau's Kentucky Prigade dad crossed over from Indiana, the intention being to send them to the Southern part of the State. Volunteering in defence of ‘ thettnion was very active, and even States' Rights men disapproved of the invasion of the Slate by the Tennessee forces. Another serious railroad accident to a military train is reported. A bridge on the Ohio and Mississippi Railroad broke down, throwing a train containing an Illinois regi ment into the river, killing from forty to fifty soldiers, and injuring a still greatct ' number. Some suspicions are entertained that the bridge was designedly weakened. Reports from Missouri are so confused that it is dfficult to understand the exact position of affairs. Gen. Price had surroun ded Lexington, but it is not certain whether any battle had taken place. Gen. Sturges was marching with a force to the relief of Lexington. The Government has summarily put an end to the intended third adjourned session of the Maryland Legislature. On Tuesday afternoon the city of Fredrick was surround ed by detachments of military, and Govern ment agents arrested the Clerks of both Houses and all the members present who had previously manifested their hostility to the Government. The Clerks and some other parties were released on taking the oath of allegiance, but the members of the Legislature were brought in custody to the Relay House, from which it was suppc sed they would be sent to Annapolis or Wash- ington.

The captains, instead of continuing A.t the head of their companies, draw back to the rear of them, that they may see any men of their respective com panies who may attempt to quit the ranks without leave. The soldiers then march and carry their arms in any manner conve nient to them ? conversation, and smoking being ordinarily allowed. psr The patricide landlady patronized by one of our exchanges, in her desire to emu late the generosity of city governments and other corporations in continuing the wages of absent soldiers, has given notice that if any of her boarders wish to enlist, she will allow their board to run right on all the time thoy are gone, the same as if they remained.
