Our Army Correspondence.
From the 149th Regt., Buoktaib
CAMP KAL012.01,1, near Washingtowl
September —, 1862
Ma. Duran :—According to prom
ise, I sit down to write you a letter.—
As I survey the ground to be traversed
in this epistolary diary - of a regiment,
I am at once confronted by such a
multitude of items clamoring for ad
mittance as convinces me that - With
the penchant flu. delays so prevalent
among Instil:hid, I have neglected this
duty too long. It will therefiwe be
necessary to avoid the minuter details
of oar story, and present only the
more prominent features of the histo
ry. To begin then :
On the gUth of .August, our company
and regimental organizations being
completed, our arms and equipment's
furnished, and marching orders re
c•eived, we left Camp Curtin, its dust,
its truck-scllers,its monotonous routine
and after a world of fuss and friction,
clashing and cursing, waiting awl won
vying. ibund eursel'Ycs, aftet: night-fall,
on the cars, going. at railroad speed, to
Baltimore. Railroad speed, in this I
ease proved to be sublimely slow, and
the morning broke soine time Mitre !
we reached Baltimore. We left the
cam's and marched down the silent
Sabbath street. Baltimore I Yes,
this is the place,. How the volunteer's
pulses quickens, how tightly his lips
are drawn, how firmly his teeth are
set, as he recalls the historic day when
the stones under his feet were stained
with the blood of martyred, murdered
patriots ! How he forgets the unac
customed burden that is weighing do wn
his sheulders, and presses forward \vitt'
firmer tread as though hastening on
to veng eance! And how the very
stones a Baltimore as they ring back
his steps seem to cry out for the pun
ishment of treason I But the volunteer
soon finds out that Baltimore is no
longer under the dominion of traitors.
As he marches onthe starry flag greets
him at every point of vision. Chubby
boys and sweet little girls wave it be
fore him, and cries of "Bravo" run along
the column. Old men look greetings
from their doors, and matrons. with
smilingfaces,wave their handkerchiets.
I cannot soon forget one, face I saw
there : an elderly lady, who looked no
ble enough to have been an empress,
who hastened, as though fearing to be
too late, to an upper window and
waved her handkerchief. Site seemed
so happy ! so glad to see us! I lifted
my cap to the full length of my arm
and shouted as we went 011, "God
bless her !" In another moment I saw
a man looking wlio had just, crept to
the window without leaving his bed.
I could see the ‘vife's lime, too, peeping
over the window sill, and her hands
holding one of the most angelic of ba
bies as it stood in the window. Sweet
babe ! how little it knew of the flood
that swept over the soldier's heart at
sight of it! It looked so like the one
he left, away up among the verdant
hills of his native state, whose mother
may now be holding it in the window,
to look upon the peacefully murmuring,
Juniata; but lie who was wont to
stand with them is now hero, and it
seems so far, so far away.
But I mint hasten through Balti
more. The city gave our regiment a
substantial hrenklast:and after being
delayed till near neon, we were again
on the road. Toward 01 - Clllllg our
train dragged its slow length into the
national capital. here we got supper,
and after some delay marched up the
avenue. It was dreadfully muddy,
and the men borne down by the weight
of their accoutrements marched heavi
ly. We turned at last, and marched
northward, out, of the city, ill great
tincertaint3 - or rather perfect ignorance
of our destination. We halted and
stood a long time in the road. All
were dripping with perspiration, and
50100 had fallen exhausted by the way
side. I 001 happy to say that none of
these were Huntingdon county boys.
We were finally ordered to stack arms
and go to bed on the grass, dull
prospect we thought, but, in overcoats
and blankets we slept soundly and
woke refreshed. The morning sun
found its marching on again to the
height we now occupy, and on the
same evening we entered our tents
just in time to escape a drenching rain.
Here we remain for the present. An
other time I will tell you all about our
beautiful situation, our duties, &c., that
is if Stonewall allows us to stay here,
for as I write, cannon arc roaring in
our ears. Yours, J S
MARY LAND HEict in's, 1
September 2.1, ISG2. f
I have delayed writing to you for
one week that I might get time to
give you a detailed account of the
battle on 'Wednesday, the 17th inst.,
in which the 123 th Regt. Penna. Vol.
took an active part. But I find the
opportunities growing fewer and thr
iller between, so I hasten to throw
out a few remarks and also append a
correct list of the killed and wounded.
The 125th covered itself all over
with glory in the battle of Sharpsburg.
The commanding General paid the
Regiment a handsome compliment at
the termination of the fight. I see
ninny erroneous statements in the
newspapers concerning the battle, and
to correct them would take more time
and labor than I have to spare. I
think it would pay some conscientious
not-to-be-bought correspondent to fol
low up the army and correct the er
rors, and give thitlifnl accounts of the
part taken in the different battles by
the different regiments, brigades,
and corps. I allude to the Phil
adelphia Inquirer correspondents. I
hope, in clue time, for the sake of" hon
or to whom honor is due," that other
regiments than those who have to buy
their glory from penny-a-liners, that
those who justly deserve it, will re
ceive that honor and praise they so
justly merit. The 125th stood the
brunt of the battle on two occasions,
but I have not (nor I do not think you
have) seen a word about the part ta
ken by it in the engagement. ..111
ask is "Let Justice be Done." If you
watch the columns of the Loptirer,spo
ken of - above, you will see a correct,
and impartial statement of facts, if if:
.%) ill coudet, , end to pu::,ii:3lt
them. I hope you will publish them.
The Aqui AT has always had the rep
utation of publishing false statements,
and I am now disposed to give cre
dence to the imputations east upon it
by hundreds and thousands of the cit
izens of Pennsylvania, as well its other
states.
I have not received a letteror p
or heard from home since, we left Pori
Bernard, - Va., on the Gth of September.
It seems like an age to me. We have
not boon three days in ono place; since
we started on the march, so that we
have had no opportunity of either
- writing or receiving letters. We ar
rived on Maryland Heights yesterday,
and occupy the same ground surren
dered to the rebels by Colonel Miles
a few days ago. Three large siege
. i.suns, spiked by Miles' men, lay on our
encampment ground. AVe overlook
Harper's Perry. The rebels destroy
ed the railroad and pontoon bridges
across the Potomac, the National Ar
mory in Harper's Ferry, besides beVer
al dwelling houses. They spread de
vastation and ruin wherever they
went. Visible marks of the hellish
deeds can be seen on every inch of
soil the God-forsaken horde passed
over.
As I remarked above, you have al
ready read detailed accounts of the
movements of the different army
corps, so I will not punish you with
another. I can assure you that I know
less of the movements of the army
than when I was at home, for oar chan
ces of finding out the movements are
very slim. We have passed through
a great scope of country, saw a great
many novelties, and passed through
many exciting scenes, which 1 have
carefully noted down in my memoran
dum book, and which 1 will scud you
as soon as I get it filled.
The tifflowing is a correct list of the
killed and wounded in the companies
front Huntingdon county, at the mem
orable battle of Sharpsburg, on Wed
nesday, September 17, 1892. Ido not
append a list of the killed and wound
ed in the Blair county companies, for
I presume the Standard and Register
have correspondents who will attend
to it, and you can glean the informa
tion from them. The total killed and
wounded in the regiment was, 28 kill
ed and 119 wounded. We lost our Ad
jutant, P. H. Johnston, of Williams
burg' in the engagemenr. Ire was a
bold, brave and gallant officer. The

TERRIBLE RAILROAD ACCI
DENT.
COLLISION ON THE CUMBER
LAND VALLEY RAILROAD,
[FIOA the Ran i4l2mg I,lPgtllloll, Sept. 271
- Yesterday morning, about SOVOII o'-
clock, one of the most terrible rail
road accidents that has occurred for
many years, took place on the Cum
berland Valley Railroad, just beyond
the bridge over the Susquehanna, and
almost opposite the city.
It appears that a troop train, con
sisting of some twenty freight cars,
drawn by a single engine, and haring
the 20th Regiment of Pennsylvania
Militia from Reading and Philadel
phia on board, was cowing to this
city from Greencastle, a small town
near the border, where the regiment
had been encamped for the past few
clays. The train was behind time, and
had been waiting for trains at Carlisle,
but none coining, the train had pro
ceeded.
The weather was very foggy, and it
was with the utmost difficulty that ob
jects could be discerned along the
track; but everything went on safely
until within a half mile of the bridge,
when the train came suddenly in sight
of an engine standing on the track.—
The engineer of the troop train imme
diately reversed his engine, but too
Into to prevent the collision, and the
engines came together with terrific
force. The result was awful. The
forward car, immediately behind the
tender, was crushed into fragments,
and nearly all of its occupants either
killed or wounded. The second car
was driven into the first and badly
damaged, and a number of the inmates
severely hurt. The third ear was
thrown on
. top of the second, the
wheels crushing through the top.—
The remaining cars were not damag
ed. The engines are complete wrecks.
Immediately after the accident two
men were sent up the road to warn all
approaching trains and proven t a sec
ond collision, which would have prov
ed fitr more disastrous than the first.
The scene presented by the wreck
was such as almost beggars the de
scription °fa hastily written local par
agraph. Inside the cars could be seen
brave men struggling in the last
gasp of death—others writhing and
imploring heaven to end their suffer
ing—others again dead, crushed, man
gled, torn, without a single warning of
he cause which produced their end.—
So sudden was the crash, that the
loud and boisterous cheers of the sol
dieriljust then approaching as they
had reason to believe, the last change
Of cars which were to carry them
home, where, as it were, instantly
changed to the_ groan, the stifled cry
of pain, the yell of agony, and such
demonstrations as men only make
who are suddenly driven to despair
and terrible death.
As we got full view of the interior
of the ears and were able completely
to comprehend the extent of the dis
aster, the heart fairly sickened at the
sight. We never desire to look on
such a scene again. The cries of those
wounded men still ring in our ears;
while the sight of the mangled and
torn dead will be a spectacle which it
will be impossible to dispel from our
view for seine time to come. The
wounded were all carried to houses
close by, and sur ,, eons sent for from
Harrisburg.
The results of the accident are 12
killed ()alright, and over 50 wounded,
some of them so severely that they
will most probably
The whole cause of the accident
was carelessness on the part of an en.
gineer of the Cumberland Valley rail
road. The Pennsylvania railroad,
which has the entire charge of the
transportation of troops, exercised all
due caution. The shifting engine of
the Cumberland Valley railroad, in
stead of stopping at the bridge and in
quiring the whereabouts of the troop
train, passed on, and the collision was
the result.
Among the most severely wounded,
is a colonel of.rackson's rebel army.—
lie left Jackson after Wednesday's
battle, with a full expectation, that if
the battle was renewed on Thursday,
Jackson would be obliged to surrender.
Be Flays that his ammunition and pro
visions were exhausted.
The crowd from this city and imme
diate neighborhood was large. All
the houses and barns near the ground
were used for the wounded and dead.
Everything was done to relieve their
suffering. The destruction of life and
property is awful, and those, by whose
carelessness it was brought about,can
not be too severely punished. We do
nand a full and Mir investigation.—
The public will not, be satisfied with
out it, and the guilty must be punish
ed. Lot justice be done.
As soon as the cars could be procur
ed and the wounded rescued from the
wreck, they were conveyed to Har
risburg, where every attention in the
power of our people and the shill of
some of the most emminent surgeons,
was free:}- and kindly bestowed upon
the suffering soldiers. They are now
as comfortable as their cases will ad
mit, located in the hospitals, where
we pledge the humanity of our gener
ous people, that nothing will be Want

A False Report,

report was put in circulation in the
county- of Huntingdon, that Sergeant
Hobert, Stewart had been disgrace,l

take this opportunity of informing his
friends and the people of his neighbor

The Meeting of the Governma of the Loy
al States—Their Interview with the
President--The Address of the Gover
nors to the President.
Wwsntxwrox, Sept 26.—The Gover
nors of the following named States ar
rived here this morning from Altoona,
namely : Ma.isachusetts, Rhode, Island,
Pennsylvania, Virginia, Ohio, Illinois,
Wisconsin, lowa, Michigan, :New
Hampshire, and Indiana—the last
named Slate being ropresented by Col.
Pose. .
Between I'2 and 1 o'clock they had
an interview of an official character
with Lb President, and presented an
address, expressing—
First, A cordial personal and official
respect for the President.
Second, A determination, under all
circumstances, to support and main
tain his constitutional authority, and
the Governors therein speaking for
themselves and the people of their re
spective States.
Third, Pledging to him their aid in
all measures calculated to bring the
war to an early termination, which
should be vigorously prosecuted to ul
timate victory, unless all the rebels
shall return to their constitutional du
ty and obedience.
Fourth, Congratulating the Presi
dent upon his emancipation proclama
tion, believing that it will be produc
tive of good as a measure of justice and
sound policy, and
Referring to the merits of
the soldiers who have fought our bat
tles.
The Governors wore coarteously and
kindly received, and their suggobtions
listened to with close attention.
It is ascertained, from those who
had the best opportunities for know
lug, that there was no proposition made
at the recent conference at Altoona;
nor even a suggestion ventured, touch
ing the removal of General McClellan,
nor was any proposition offered or
suggestion made as to the promotion
of Fremont to the head of the army, or
to the future disposal of that gentle
man.
The address to the President as
agreed to, was written by Governor
Andrew, at the suggestion of the other
Governors present. No counter prop
osition or amendment to the address
was submitted. Governor Bradford,
of Maryland, alone, did not sign it, ex
pressing a fear that the President's
proclamation might not prove as ad
vantageous as the conference hoped,
and regarding the matter too doubtful
to justify them in taking sides in its
support .
There was no dispute nor improper
warmth of debate whatever. The
conversation was of the most kind, po
lite, and conciliatory character, and all
present were animated by a cordial
spirit of unity-in the support of the
Government and the prosecution of
the war--the object of the conference
being to express to the President their
sentiment and to oiler their support to
him in the future as in the past, and
to make the relations of all loyal men
and Slates more /dose, intimate awl
=MEE
firm. All, excepting Governor Brad
ford, were heartily convinced of the
wisdom of the proclamation, aqd were
desirous of expressing this conviction
to the President.
In the conference various details re
lating to the recruiting, organization,
equipment and transportation of troops
were discussed. The Governom freely
compared notes, and agreed upon va
rious points in this connection, which
they agreed to submit to the President
and Secretary of War. They did not,
however, as to these matters, put any
thing in writing, because they did not
wish to appear dictatorial, believing
that friendly verbal suggestions, in a
polite and respectful interview, would
give them effect, so fitr as they might
be regarded correct or beneficial. The
care and removal of the sick and woun
ded, and the subject of furloughs, etc.,
attracted a great deal of attention, the
object being to produce reforms which
all felt to be needed, to the end of the
happiness of families, the welfare of
soldiers, and the true efficiency of the
army; to carry out which reforms,
should the Government adopt them,
the States will cheerfully co-operate.
It was unanimously agreed that fur
loughs should be so regulated as to
prevent future abuses. It was also
agreed to suggest an army of reserve
(after the quota already called for
shall be filled) of not less than a Lund-
red thousand men, to be drilled and
disciplined at home, and to be called
out in cases of sudden exigency, at
such points where they may be need
ed, and to be mustered for twelve
months unless sooner discharged.
The interview between the Presi
dent and the Governors this afternoon
continued for three hours. They all
represent to have been of a pleasant
ancl gratifying character. While
plainly intimating their confidence in
the President's integrity and ability,
and assuring him of their determina
tion to support him in the diseharge
of his duties, their recommendations
partook of the nature of friendly sug
gesti ens. •
Some of the subjects, be said, had al
ready received executive considera
tion, but as others had now for the
first time been presented, lie requested
that they be reduced to writing, in or
der that they might meet with the at
tention which their importance de
mands.
The Governors having transacted
their business with the President,
some of them left the city this after
noon for their respective homes.
NEw September26.---There is
not the slightest foundation in fact for
the rumors of certain Governors en
deavoring to impose upon the Conven
tion at Altoona, and upon the Presi
dent, action in regard to any general
inr the field or elsewhere, or in regard
to other details in the management of
the war.

Sad Wings to relate,
Another youthful brace
_Has met with common fate,
Yet laurels crown his grave
Though he did not endure
Long hard Ships in the strife,
Yet fate to him was sure,
And ended with his life.
With sad end aching hearts,
His parents gave the boon,
Nor did he think to part
With them, by death, so soon.
