OF..\Tn of David Sraocti—Another, young
j n y (>rl> butpromisingin life, has. gone to that
boorne fr<*“ whence no traveler returns. When
«e-4r»t hw*™* acquainted frith the deceased
was hut A hoy and had just entered a tele
graph office to learn the business. Quick of
perception, "ntl-posscssing a strong native tal
*j,t coupled , with commendable energy andpcr
gerer.-iuce,'led ns to mark ont for him a pros
perous future, lie speedily earned for himself
the reputation of being one of the best telegraph
operators in the coiintry.-tJk few years since
fcis health failedrjnl by change of climate be
-recuperated jgHmewhat. On the.breaking onl of
the present was selected to take charge
of the military telegraph lines in and about
tVsihiugton City. nn#*«ilhfaUy performed this
duty for several months, but the task was too
much for his strength, and that fell'disease—
consumption—from which he was suffering, be
gin rapidly to do its work, and Cubbed it on
the 17th inst. ■
A fewdays previous to his death, while seated
«n the banle of the Juniata river, near bis home,
Is following touching linos:

To the Members of the U. S. Military Corps:—

SoinUtt .Dead.—How often are our eyes
greeted with captions like thpsb.vo We have
this week to record the death of Edward Evars,
of this place, a member of Company E, Bih reg
iment Penn’a Reserve Corps. He was brought
home last week and buried. The following let
ter to his wife,, from ono of the officers of his
company, shows how much he was respected by
his feilow soldiers, who, it will be observed,
give a slrongcr evidence of their attachment
than words couid express:

-Dear Muilam :—As au officer in the army of

that there was no hope. On Thursday, tho Bth

glorious Union, who has died ere the day of
honof dawned, hut he cun never bo for

character, float assured, dour madam, that in

followed, hnd though in person he is absent,

can say the company of which ho -was a mem

voice appropriated $lOl for defraying all ex
penses pertaining,to transporting his •.cumins
home.
Hoping, dear Madatn’ that your faith in Je
sus (who has said that not even a sparrow shall
fail without his knowledge) shall support you
through this sad affliction, and that nil may end
in a happy re-union, is the prayer of all bis
'comrades in arms.

IWe had another review ( of the army of tho
Potomac, on Saturday iitstj, at which wo real
ised all the advantages of grind review. Ou
this occasion Gen. McClellan first appeared as
Oomiuandei-iu-Chief of th# American army.—
It was announced that the 16th Massacbactts
regiment had admitted that our regiment sur
passed them in ordinary marching, but that they )
could; excel us in marchinjg pith knapsacks on j
bur backs. I*Cow, bo it gentlemen, that !
the 33d Pennsylvania regiment takes the lead
an this division, and we were not to be intimi
dated by any such a banter;, consequently, on
morning we donned our knapsacks
nudAjther accoutrements' and marched to the
field of review, about three miles distant, in the
direction of Washington.! Shortly after we
started, the rain commenced falling, and con
tinued during the entire dqy.
’ The division was drawn up in lino on
the field, and ou the arrival of the Cummander
iu-Chief the cannon pealed; forth nnd the troops
sent up cheer after, cheer making the hills and val
leys resound tor miles ar(,nnd. Alter passing
each of the regiments, and closely scrutinizing
|: their appearance, they in turn marched by the
• General and Staff, putting their best foot fore
most, in spite of the mm! and slush through
which they had to wade. This was a day to
try the soldiers’ metal, yi t .patiently did they
en.durc it. Above and are md was nothing but
rain and angry clouds, ;imd beneath, endless
mire; nnd yet amid all tjis conglomeration of
mud, wind and rain. Gcn.j McClellan remained
on horseback, without even so much as an over
coat, and indeed would fctmiin a considerab’e
| length of time with cup id hand, while the rain
S fell unceasingly upon him.; The division formed
j in square and commenced firing by regiments
\ and companies, and such a clicking of caps was
j never heard on our side of the Potomac. 1
j almost imagined we were enjoying a fight with
j the rebels.
There whs no sign of l[hei raiu censing, ond
w© were compelled to yield and inarch hmpp.
Had Johnson, of Georgia, seen us then, he
would have thought usthe niud-sillu of the
army, as he said the wording men of the North
were of society. Not n Aijamof'us but was com
pletely drenched with rain, and covered with
mud. £ven the cbthing in pur knapsacks was
wet. To day Ido not hejit a mftii complain of
being effected by the I'.iiu, yet many slept in
their wet clothes. Yours truly.
