A Great War Meeting in Shade Gap MR. EDITOR :- A large and enthusi astic meeting of the citizens of Shade Gap and vicinity, was held on Friday afternoon, the 18th inst., in favor of prosecuting the war to the death.-- The people in this section of the coun try are becoming fully aroused to the necessity of taking the most active measures for the suppression of the most wicked rebellion, now threaten ing to shake our beloved republic to its very foundation. The following officers were chosen to preside over the meeting: President—James Neely, Esq. Vice Presidents—Robert tioshom, Christopher Price, Jacob }Venice, Valentine Schmittell. C^_o (0 00 . GOOO Secretaries—Dr. J. Alfred Shade, J. W. Scott, Thos. Teague. The following resolutions were of fered and read by the Rev. G. Aran Artsdalen, and unanimously adopted with loud applause, as expressions of the sentiments of the meeting: Whereas, Our country is now plung ed in the horrors of a cruel and pro tracted rebellion, which threatens her very existence, aiming as it does, at the dissolution of our Union; and the complete overthrow of our Govern ment; And whereas, our treacherous enemies have already slain thousands of our fellow-citizens—our sons, our brothers, our fitthers, and our friends —on bloody battle-fields, ankd are still, with an enmity equal to their vigor, mustering their rebel forces, and en deavorhor with all their might and main, at home and abroad, to have their wicked designs consummated; And whereas, our present Administra tion has issued call after call, and our brethren on the bloody field call after call, for large, strong and loyal rein forcements, to meet and to crush the foe ; ad whereas, in this great Nation al death and life .struggle, where the most momentous issues are at stake, there can be but two parties, the loy al and the disloyal ; And whereas, the 'hour of action has come, in which ev ery man should choose his side and show his colors; therefore, ' Resolved, That we, the citizens of Shade Gap, will not now wait to expa tiate on the causes, dispute the mis takes, nor conjecture the consequences of this cruel war, in this the hour of our country's peril, but we will, as with one heart and one voice, give a hearty response to the call of the Ad ministration, and pledge ourselves, to the utmost of our power, to support it in the high discharge of duty. Resolved, That as we would rush to save our factories and our homes from the fires of the incendiary, so should we rush to save our country from the fire and sword of rebel enemies; and as Michael and his angels fought against the dragon and his rebel angels until they were thrust out of Heaven, so will we fight against the traitor Da vis and his rebel legions until the last rebel is crushed or driven out of our once happy Union. Resolved, That, as we have already given of our substance and our kindred to our country's cause, so will we con tinue to give and encourage those who do give, and give ourselves, until this wicked rebellion is forever crushed, the schemes of its abettors forever thwar ted,.and the arms of its helpers forever broken; and to this end) we will set up our banners in the name of God, and march forth to save the freest country, and the best Government in this world, and bury our party bickerings, our sectional differences and platform con- , tentions, in one common grave, and discuss our religions and our politics beneath the triumphant Stars and Stripes when the war is over. The audience were addressed by the President of the meeting, General Spear, Col. Noss, Robert Gos'hom, Esq. and tie, Rev. G. Van Artsdalen, in elo quent and patriotic speeches, which were received by an attentive audi ence with loud applause and repeated cheers. At the close of tho meeting a number of volunteers enlisted, and at once took the prescribed oath. A vote was taken whether they would enlist for nine months or three years, which resulted unanimously for throe years or during the war. . _ Be assured the people of Dublin and Tell are fully aroused, and are determ ined to sustain the Union, Constitution and Government of our country. BABYVILLE, CENTRE Co., Aug. 8 Ma. LEWIS-Sir :—Believing that you, and every other patriot, and lover of the Constitution and Government, tithe a deep interest in all that is being done to sustain the Army of the Union, I wouldjust inform you that a squad of 22 men loft this place this day for Har risburg. Part of the members were from good old Huntingdon county.— One of the members was Robert Roe dir, the fifth and last son of a poor widow who is now desolate and alone. Could a Spartan mother done more than than she has done ? In the wars of 1812 her father lost his life in defend ing the honor of our country from an insolent and foreign foe, and now she gives her five sons to defend and per petuate that liberty and that govern ment that is assailed by a wicked and tyranical foe at home. It was a grand sight to see that mother giving her last boy to the service of her country; not with a cold stoical indifference, but with Christian hope and resignation, believing that God would take care of him and herself. Oh ye mothers of the loyal north, what a patriotic ex ample! You who are surrounded with luxury, who have husbands anddaugh tors to console you, encourage your sons to go forth to - fight and defend your homes shoulder to shoulder with the sons of your sister, Mrs. Reeder, who has drunk of the cup of poverty and affliction to its very dregs, but is rich in the love of God and country. The names of these patriotic brothers deserve an honorable mention : James is in the 2d Kentucky Regt., Amos in the sth Virginia, Charles sth Pa., The odore in the 49th Pa., and Robert now in Camp Curtin.

They desire to say, that his kind ness and consideration for their corn fort will not be forgotten. A more ac ceptable present could not be made to men coming out than gum blankets to protect them from the chill earth.

Farewell, brave boys, may God be with you, And guide you safe from every harm ; Let not the tears of mothers grieve you, Your country calls you now to arms. The boys I knew from early childhood; Ah yes, 'tie hard with you to part : Mine eyes with tears are now full blinded, And grief lays heavy at my heart. A fond farewell I once have written, For one who never will return, A mother's heart is sorely stricken, For that dear one I now do mourn. But hush—my heart, from tears refraining, My country bleeds full 'yell I know ; Had 1 another son remaining, He to his country's call should go. Go ! brave onea ! go and do your duty, Nor dare to fill a coward's grave ; Go ! not for bribing or a bounty, But go, our bleeding land to save. Again farewell, ye gallant soldiers, May God protect you in the light ; May not the arms drop from your shoulders Until you've put the foe to night. J. L. A. Alexandria, 1862. OCCASIONAL Edwin B.

The following letter was handed to us for publication. It gives interesting particulars of the battles before Rich mond: HARRISON LANDING, July 21st, 1862 DEAR BROTHER. :—I. W now tell you all about the battle from the 20th of J une to the `ild of July, as near as can. I can tell you more about our di vision than the rest of the army, for that I saw and the rest I did not. On the 20th of June Gen. Porter drove the rebels bade on the right and crossed the Chickahominy; he drove them back several miles. The next day, the 27th, the battle was renewed again and there was a severe engagement tools place, Porter was then compelled to fall back again. In the morning there was skir mishing along the line in front of us among the pickets, and we had to lay in line of battle all day on our arms; they kept throwing shell back and for ward more or less all day; we could hear the cannonading on the right and sometimes the musketry ; in the even ing all became quiet on our line. About an hour before sundown they were wanting reinfbreements at the Chick allominy, and our brigade and part of the Irish brigade wont in quick time all the way, about five miles; we got there about sundown, the battle was raging, yet they were bringing plenty of our wounded in. We were drawn up in line of battle as quick as possible and started in double quick for two or three hundred yards to a fence and halted and laid behind the fence to wait for the rascals to come up. Several of their cannon balls struck close by us in the ground, and as soon as it was dark the battle ceased. We laid there under arms till awhile before daylight, then matched back to Fair Oaks again ; the rebel's loss was very heavy, but still they beat our men back with their overwhelming force. In the evening the rebels had a balloon up and as soon as they seen us leaving to go to the right to reinforce our men there, it lowered. They had seen our movements and thought after we had gone they could easily break through. After we had gone, as soon as it was dark they made a desperate attack, bet they found that there were still men left there. Our men were afraid the rebels would break through so they made preparations to leave if they should, for in the morning when we got back everything was packed ready to leave. The rebels would have broke through had it not been for the artil lery; they kept up a heavy fire with grape, eannister and shell, and kept the rebels back. It was daylight by the time we got back to our camp; we had scarcely time to get something to cat till we were called to arms again and laid in line of battle all day, this was Saturday 28th ; that day all the wagons with baggage and camp equip age were started off towards the James River, to Harrison Lan;iing, and a great many of the troops started off at the same time, but as we were the rear guard we did not leave till on Sunday morning 20th; we marched till above Savage Station, then halted, formed a lino. As soon as the rebels found that we were gone they came over our breastworks cheering and be gan to pursue us, but we were ready for that; they came round on our left through the woods and a brisk firing commenced. We. ~rote i 4 field on a small bluff near some buildings about a hundred yards from the woods; the 81st Pa. Beg., mostly called the Ist Cal ifornia Reg't, was in the front of us. The rebels came through the woods till they came to the fence, then commenc ed firing; we were 25 yards behind the 81st, we were supporting them; we laid clown flat on the ground so the balls passed over us. While the firing was going on the 81st stood up to it very bravely, though they shot very wild. The 81st had many men wounded but not many killed. At length the fire became most too hot, so they called for us to relieve them, Gen. French came riding along waived his hat and said: "Colonel, hurrah for the 53d." The 81st now marched away and we tools their place. As the 81st passed they said, "take good aim,for we have been shoot too much for nothing," we could easily see that front where we laid. Our right wing commenced pouring in a heavy fire; but the left wing was ordered to retain their fire till they got orders to shoot. The rebels could not stand our fire and soon tools to their heels and run. There were several of our men wounded but none killed. The rebel loss was unknown to us, but it must have been heavy. After the firing Gcn. Sumner came riding along our ranks and said, "where can't the men that behaved so well; they can't face you my gallant lads, they have gone to the right." Some of our cavalry staid back at Fair Oaks after we had gone, to set fire to everything that could not be taken along, such as commissary stores and other property. There were 10,000 boxes of crackers burned on one pile, besides flour, sugar, coffee, meat and other provisions. We marched on down the railroad till be low Savage Station—we laid in line at the edge of the woods to wail for the rebels—we laid there all afternoon.— In the evening another battle corn menced near Savage Station, but we didn't got in this, they didn't get down as far as we were. We remained there till awhile after night then we took up our march again, after all was quiet. We were to reach White Oak Swamp that night, our march was a dangerous one, as we were the rear guard we didn't know what minute we might be cut off, we had to he very cautious. We overtook our baggage and provision train a little before we reached the swamp; we got there about daylight and crossed it as quick as possible;there were 3 bridges across the swamp, ono for wagons and artillery to cross, and two for soldiers; we wore the last regi ment crossing; we were both tired and sleepy as wo had not much sleep for three nights. As soon as we got over and marched about 200 yards, we stack ed arms, thinking that wo would now have some rest, but had hardly clone so when the Colonel shouted, "atten tion 53d, counter march by file right !" His command was obeyed, we marched down to the swamp, ho now said, "my men I want you to tear up those bridg es as quick as you can." We tore tip the bridges and burned them, then we marched up the hill and rested there till the middle of the day, when the rebels had planted a couple of batteries on the bill on the opposite side; they could see us and commenced shelling. The (canisters were just clown at the swamp watming their mules, the dri- vers all jumped off' and et their mules go. We were all lying down and some were sleeping when the cannons com menced to roar; we all jumped up while the shells and balls came flying over and among us thick and fast; we all fell in ranks and marched to the fllr side of the field; by this time one of our bat teries was ready to commence shelling and then we had to support that one, which threw us right in range with the rebel guns. We were about one hun dred yards behind our battery, and laid there flat on the ground all after noon. There was a heavy cannonading kept up on both sides until evening, when our men silenced the rebel bat teries. There was only ono man killed in our regiment, but several wounded, and a few more men killed. At sun down we marched back toward the swamp to keep the rebels from cross ing. After dark we could hear them giving command; they came to the swamp and attempted to build up the bridge, but one battery belonging to our brigade staid on the field till after we left, they kept throwing canister among them and kept them back till all the rest of the troops had left. We remained on the field till 11 o'clock at night, and then left too. There were several wagons standing in the field loaded with pontoon bridges that could not be taken along, they were set on fire and burnt. Wo marched all that night, and the next morning after sun rise we reached James river, and laid there about two hours when a battle took place on Malvern 11111, about three miles back from where we laid; we had to go there again, and when we reach ed the place it was covered with troops and artillery, there was more artillery there than ever I saw at one place.— We had to lay there in the field all day on our arms in the hot sun, the rebel cannon balls and shells flying over us and sometimes they would strike close by us. The rebels shot pieces of rail road iron and all such things, and we could hear them whistling half a mile. There were none of our regiment hurt there. We remained on the hill till early the next morning, then we star ted and came down to where we are now. We have it very easy here now and are encamped in a nice place, only a half mile from the James river, and the same distance from McClellan's headquarters. We go to the river to bathe instead of drilling; it is an order from the General. We have been en gaged in digging wells and have very good water now. Our captain is in the hospital now; he got sick after the battle at Fair Oaks. Col. Brook is acting as brigadier general in French's place. We have seen some very hard times and expect to see more, but it is all for the Union. lam in good health. Yours, &c. F. IL S. Co. 0, 53 Reg% Pa. Vols. The Draft to be made on September Ist.
