HUNTINGDON, PA
Wednesday morning, Aug. 26, 1863.
tFor the Globe,)
The war in America, of Freedom
against Slavery, still continues. Men
and means for the pin-pose of prolong
ing it have been furnished and are still
being furnished by both parties. And
yet, this is the war which, it had been
told in the commencement, would last
but the short period of three months:
The President, duped by such a decep
tion, accordingly ordered out 75,000
men for the said period. But, alas, for
this unfortunate oversight :" the three
months rolled round, and how are af
fairs at this juncture, Both armies
are preparing.to attack each other at
Bull Run. They mot, and ever sad to
We remembered by every loyal Ameri:
• can was the result. The Union forces,
being overpowered, were forced to re
treat. To this day do we' bear the
scoffs mid jeers of the Rebel hosts in
termingled with the cry of "Bull Run;"
even at this day would the patriot voi
cesnow hushed beneath their half-cov
ered graves, if living, say : "Fight on,
comrades, till you erase from the mem
ory id' man the ignominious defeat-we
sustained on this blood-stained battle
field." It is oven so; in the first
pitched battle of the war the Union
troops were badly defeated. If the
rebels had but been unfortunate
enough to have lost that, we would
then, perhaps, not now, heard them pi.
ning over the utter hopelessness of
their wicked cause and detestable in
tentions. But thanks to Our undaun
ted and Union-loving President: find
ing that more men were required he
immediately made a requisition for
100,000. The call was promptly re
sponded to by more than the required
number• of loyal citizens. Repeated
calls were made as often as it was
deemed necessary. Two years and a
half of continued warfare have now
elapsed, and yet the Rebel forces do
not appear to be decreasing; and it is
a well known fact that the Southern
population is not as largo as that of
the North. To be sure the conscrip
tion act has been put in force in all the
Confederate States, and it is equally
certain that it has long ere this, "acted
well its part." They, therefore, must
receive mercenary troops, or else their
own number is inexhaustible—and the
latter cannot be.
But, however, to meet these forces
—whether they be from the South or
from the East—the Northerners have
recourse to conscription. In almost
,every Union State the conscription
'act is in operation. Men are being
drafted - from their homes and families
to fill up the depopulated ranks of vet
eran regiments. The majority of the
number, perhaps, who are thus drafted,
have great repugnance to such a course
of action. To every picture there is
two-sides, so in - the conscript's case.—
For him to a wife whom he has
loved and protected—the offspring
over which he has watched with a lov
ing eye—the borne, which has shelter
ed him and his family for years from
the excessive heat of summer and the
chilling blasts of winter, must cause
all the tender emotions of his nature
to arouse, and make tears of sorrow
to trickle down his sun-tanned cheeks.
But again, to know that his country,
in her perilous 'condition, calls upon
-him to use his firm in the defence of
her noble and sacred institutions
'against its bloodthirsty destroyers,
must cause him to leave home and all
its endearments. lie goes as a drafted
-man, but to do the same service as a
volunteer.' His brothers in the field,
who are covered with the marks of the
- soviets, have noted .the - place he is to
occupy. They will - treat him like a
brother. The men in the field are cal
ling for companions., Their ranks are
decimated—their comrades have fallen
iu some desperate skirti-iish or on the
sanguinary battle-field; and they are
now wanting those places occupied.—
The conscript is their friend as well as
the volunteer. The veteran will hold
out his hand till Met by the conscript,
-when_ we will bear of - both fighting
side side under the starry folds un
til victory crowns their efforts, or un
til they fall, and then to be enwrapped
in the spangled banner—a fit winding
sheet for the Union soldier—conscript
or volunteer. UNION.
HEAD QUARTERS 53d Pa. VOLS.
CAMP NEAR MORRISVILLE" VA.
August, 18, 1863.
MR. EDITOR: Our last communica
tion left, us in camp near Morrisville
where I am happy to say we aro still
encamped, with old Sol daily beating
down upon our benighted heads
with such terrible force that it is al
most intolerable, and with such apecu
liar force to drowsiness that we would
not be averse to moving our quarters to
a more pleasant clime, and where more
limpid streams might be found, than
this accursed country can produce to
satiate the thirst of the poor soldier.
'There has been nothing new of interest
. since orir last. Nothing is done, with
the exception of tho regular routine
of ditties Incident to camp life. Things
appear to have sunk into a general
lull from which they will
,no doubt ore
long rise with redoubled fury. The
Gods of battle appear to , be' resting
their hosts, until the
,propitious hour
presents itself, When. they will -again
conainonce, their work - of.lblood: , and
cal:Mtge. • The'enemy is unusnallyqui
et, not even attempting "to Send out,
any reconnoitering parties, There
are a great many conjectUrOirifene to
the - enemy is about, but no deft;
rite information can be • obtained.
Whatever are the intentions of Gener
al Lee, ono thing is certain he - cannot
go fur with any of his intended plans
until he wilt be discovered, by the 'Vi
gilance of Gen. Meade. Yet, Gen. Lee,
has a very good way of keeping :his
plans concealed. No doubt, however,
" our little god" as the boys choose to
call him, in the form of Gen. Meade,
knows all about the movements of,tbat
" war lion," General Lee,
whó the Richmond Inquirer, told us
'Caere the - battle 'of Gettysburg had
already ate 'six of our' Generals,' and
gave General Meade fair warning or
he would soon be the "seventh in the
line." As scroll is the number of per
fection, they no doubt had intended
to stop when they had him worked
up. But we think they will have the
pleasure of not reaching the number of
perfection, and do well if they save the
old traitor from disgrace and shame.
One thing is very evident, if he has al
ready devoured six of our best lead
ers as they say, he must have more
brains in his belly than his head, which
will, , , unfortunately for him, not do
so' much good,.on - account of its re
duced possession. Wo think the old
fox is about at his wit's end, and 'will
no doubt remain quiet,: so long as lie
is allowed to do so. There are some.
movements of troops going on in our
army, but the real nature of tho move
ments are difficult to find out, as every
thing is kept very secret. Where we I
will move to when we leave this is
more than we are able to say at pres
ent, but some movement is evidently
on foot, and ere this reaches you it
will no doubt be known to the public.
Our corps (the second) has orders to
be ready to march at a moment's no
tice. Six days rations aro to be kept
on band constantly, three in the hav
ersacks and three in the regimental
wagons. From the amount of rations
to be kept on band, the movement no
doubt is one of someimportance. Two
regiments 9f the second division of this
corps have already gone, namely, the
Ist Minnesota and 7th Michigan.
Where they have gone, is not known.
They will no doubt soon turn up some
where, and Weaned upon to do any
important duty, they will most cer
tainly give a good account of them
selves, as they are old and tried sol
diers. The men generally thought
they were going home to recruit. We
have reasons to doubt their going home
as the government needs men too much
at present, to spare them . The con
scripts are commencing to arrive in
considerable numbers. Some eight
hundred came in a few days since for
some Maine and Massachusetts ,regi
month. They are a very fine looking
body of inon.. Some two hundred came
in this morning for the 14th Connecti
cut regiment. Most of Oleg° men are
substitutes, very few having been ori
ginally drafted. Some have already
been promoted, as - we saw three of
them on a horse, which has been erect
ed in front of the quarters, so as al
ways to be in readiness, when any
one feels his dignity insulted, and re
fuses to do duty. They have certain
ly been doing well, for being in the
service such a short time. Major Gen.'
Warren assumed command of the 2d
corps yesterday, during the temporary
absence of Gen. Hancock, who is still
suffering -from his wound; which lie
received in the battle of Gettysburg.
The paymaster paid us a visit last
week. We were paid off to the 30th
of June. The_troops arc,all being paid
as fast as possible. The ,paymaster is
ever a welcome visitor ,to the men.
The time of feasting always comes
with the paymasters, because with the
paymasters come the suttlers, who aro
always abeni:,'Wheri the 'limn have-mo
ney, but far enough off when they have
none. Though many of the suttlers
have been caught, by Mosby and his
band, who by all accounts gets as
much Ratters' goods as the soldiers,
yet many succeed in getting here, and
reap a rich harvest. They sell at ex
orbitant prices, yet the men are all
glad to got something extra, which is
more suited to the taste, than the reg
ular fare Uncle Sam gives them. Old
Bacchus generally exhibits himself ra
ther largely after pay day, notwith
standing the strict orders against any
intoxicating liquors being sold to any
private soldiers. Officers in this res
pect have the advantiigo of the men,
as they can buy as much liquor as they
wish, and the privilege, is in many ea
ses shamefully abused, where officers
get intoxicated. Perhaps it would be
interesting to some of the readers of
the Globe to know
, the condition .and
strength of our regiment. When we
left Camp Curtin in 1801, we had
nine hundred and fifty-four men in our
regiment. We now carry in the regi-
I mental rolls some four hundred mon,
many of whom will never be able to
do duty. A number of these have lost
arms and legs in the battle of Gettys
burg who have not been dis'eharged.
yet. A groat many have, been crip
pled in the late battles, so that at leatit
not more than two hundred 'and• fifty
of the , number above mentioned, will
ever return to, the regiment. Comp-.

Captain Mint4or,
, of coptpany i A, is
filling his place as Provost Marshall
during his absence. The seven re
maining compabine have totids - present
enlisted men, eighty-seven,
commissioned officers, making an ag
gregate of ninety-nine. This may
seem a very small number of mom to
compose a regiment, which it most
certainly-is, but we have now beoq but
almost tWo years in active' field:l:soy
vice, yet have never received any rel
emits, and have gone through fiqeen
regular engagements and skirmishes:
At the-battle of Fredericksburg,- •com
ptiuy-- went in 'to the battßi' ti•itlt
twelve private's and had seven killed
on the field, and four severely wound
ed, leaving one man uninjured. Some
of the other companies lost almost bi
the same proportion, not having, how-
ever so many killed proportionately.
I At the battle of Gettysburg, we had
one hundred and twenty-six officers
and men en - gaged. On the day before
the battle we marched thirty miles,
went into hattle and lost seventy-nine
officers and men, killed and wounded,
and after the battle faced about and
started for the Potomac again. Such
losses in battle will easily account for
small regiments. The old regiments
in the army of the Potomac are indeed .
mere ekelotons.of regiments. If -the:
present draft does net fill them up,
they might as well lie 'disbanded or
consolidated, as it is a groat expense
to the Government to pay officers •to
command men, when they have none
to, command. Our regiments is by no
means the only one, that has suffered
such losses. There are others that
have fared as bad if not worse. There
has heretofore been no way by which
these regiments could be filled up,
only by sending our recruiting officers
which has proved to be a slow way to
get men ; there were no men who
would volunteer to come into the old
regiments, as long as there were now
organizations going on, but wo have
fair prospects of being filled up by the
draft. Tho enemy in that particular
bad the advantage of us : their sweep
ing conseriptibri act, brought men into
their ranks continually, so that if they
do loose heavily in battle, they will
soon have their ranks filled again to
some extent. Such has been the ease
heretofore, but we think their conscrip
tion has done its work, and there are
few left to be conscripted. 'We saw
by the last "Globe" that the draft was
to come elfin old Huntingdon county
yesterday. We are anxiously awaiting
the next "Globe" to see who the lucky
ones aro that drew the prizes. The
weather ha's been exceedingly warm
for the last week back. Tho men have
covered their tents, with brush, put
ting up scaffolds, , and spreading the
brtish over the top. This makes the
camp very comfortable, and gives it a
fine appearance.

COFFEE. RUN, August 24, 'O3
Friend Lewis :
We are home again.
This senteile'els spoken as independ
ently as ivas our moonlight rhymifigs
of our childhood. The busy and exci
ting scenes of camp life are o'er, and
tho 46th, true to the State and the
Canso, returns to its kindred and its
frie rids. ,
Though war has its horrors, its -bat
tie-fields, and the shedding of blood, yet
as memory retrospects the past, it has
and always will have a day for pleas
ure and an hour for cheer.. Such is
the soldier's life—one of hardship and
peril, • yet he forgets theso;'bears them
all manfully-, and, if need be, dies for
his country. Sacrifices bf this.chartie
thr demand the ref,pect of the world,
and-the:approving smile of Heaven. Si
canto home - and found that some, Of
my friends had
, been drafted in my ab
sence. Few Ire going to pay the 000,
as the majority are settling up their af.
fairs preparatory to the start, I wish
them a soldier's success, and after the
good fight, is fought, a safe return to
their families.
Negroes as Fighting Men.
Qemoral Blunt; in a private• letter
describing the battle of lloney,Springs
in the Indian territory, says:
"One Texas regiment went in with
three hundred men and came out with
only sixty. This regiment was oppo
sed to the' First Colored, and the ne
groes were too much for them and let
mo say hero that I never saw such
fighting done as was done . by the brave
negro regiment at the battle of Honey
Springs. They fought like veterans,
with a coolness and valor that is un
surpassed. They preserved their line
perfect throughout the whole engage
ment, and, although in the hottest of
the fight, they never once faltered.
Too' much praise cannot bo awarded
them for their gallantry. The ques
tion that negroes will fight is settled ;
besides they make better soldiers in
every respect than any troops I have
ev.crhad under my command."
AN INFERENCE TO BE Dn.twN.—Som o
of the opposition journals who Support
Mr Vallandigham, and call him a
"patriot sage," profess to desire the
preservation of the Union. Is Mr.
-Vallandighamr then, a Union , man ?
lie does not say so; but here is what
he does say: In the first place he as.
sorts belief that " there'is not a
-man, woman, or child in the seceded
States in favor of arc turnto the Union."
:And 'next he ;writes :; nOt,re
peat mfoft-declared:convietion; which
time has always vindicated, that the
South eannet'be conquered by force of
arms." ' , „
That is to say, willingly they will
not return , according,,to .Mr. Vallan
diighani; and we cannot fore() 'them.—

The Aiiis of the Nrnooratio Party,
In October next a Governor is to be
elected in each of tho great States of
Pennsylvania and Ohio. In the lat
ter Vallandigham is the Democratic
candidate, and in the former the Dem
ocratic candidate entertains the same
views precisely. The Democrats are
making extraordinary efforts' to carry
both, because' the possession of the gu
bernatorial office in three such States
as Pennsylvania, Ohio and Nov York
would enable them to harass the Na
tional Administration to their hearts
content. For a time these men claim
ed to be as much opposed to the rebels
as the Unon mon, and to be as sincere
ly 'in favor of the war and its pros
ecution: But all that is changed now.
The thin disguise they then attempted
to assn me is thrown away. The war is
uniformly denounced by them, and the
policy of the party, as now both de
clared and put in practice, is to op
pose it by all practicable means.
They oppose the conscription unan
imously, denouncing it as unconstitu
tional and despotic. They organize to
resist it. They get up riots, and even
armed bands, to, prevent its enforce
ment. They aid. every man who
wishes or tries to desert. - They defend
every rebel who is arrested as a spy.
They eulogize every rebel commander
and leader, and denounce every Union
general who conducts the war in ear
nest, and every member of the Gov
ernment who distinguishes himself as
an earnest war man. They have held
peace meetings, and have' finally
mounted the name of State Bights
party as a tag to that of Democratic.
There is no mistake about the mean
ing of all these things. They point
unmistakably to a determination not
to let the rebellion be suppressed, be
cause they foolishly believe that this
rebellion is, after all, in the interest of
the Democratic party. If they can
succeed in carrying an electoral 'ma
jority in the loyal States, they imagine
that, of course, the rebel South Avill
join them, and give up rebellion for the
sake of being able once more to wield
the destinies of the nation. Never
were men more egregiously mistaken ;
but that is their plan, and it rests with
the people of Pennsylvania and Ohio
to say whether they will permit this
monstrous outrage to be consummat
ed.
Here we have been plunged into a
causeless war by the South ; hare
struggled for several years through
seas of blood to put an end to it; have
sacrificed thousands of valuable lives
to vindicate the national authority ;
and the Democratic party coolly
comes forward and proposes that the
war shall be,.• ended; not by the '§ub-
MissioU of the rebels, but by tile Sub
mission of the loyal north.to the will
of the rebels. The Democratic party
of the North, as it now stands, is the
rebel party pure and simple. It has
deserted the national standard; aban
doned evemits own specious cry in fa
vor of the Constitution and the Union,
and stakes all on the issue of peace,
ignominious, bitter, disgraceful peace
—the peace of' submission to rebel des
potism, the peace ofperpetual slavery.
If the peace they now seek could be
inaugurated, the whole north would
be converted into one vast hunting
ground for the fugitive slaves of rebel
masters, liberated by the Cl.Jentssof
war. We should have the insolctit
rebels, who have slaughtered our kin
dred in every battle-field olthe' war,
boasting of their achievements here at
our own doors, and laughing at the cre
dulity of a Republican administration
which could trust Co the loyalty of the
Northern Democrats. We should
have our cause branded as traitorous
an' Contemptible ; we should be treat
ed with scorn by all Christendom for
a nation besotted in stupidity; and the
worst is, that in such ease we should
undoubtedly deserve it all. Pennsyl
vania can prevent all this. She can
turn back the tide of rebel sympathy
which has been sweeping over the
north. She can give an effectual death
blow to this 'despicable conspiracy
against the perpetuity and liberties of
the republic.

MORE REBEL MURDERS.-011 Thurs
day evening last, as a party consisting
of Capt. Alexander, Capt. Berry, and'
another captain and a soldier and
some citizens, were going from Germ
antown, Tennessee, to White Station,
on the Memphis and Charleston Road,
in a .hand car, they -were fired upon
by four highwaymen or bushwhack - era,
seofeted' by the roadside, and' four of
the party severely wounded. The as
sassins then approached the car. The
citizens and one soldier then escaped.
As the rebels came up, Capt. Alexan
der handed one his pistol, and said,
"I surrender," when the former coolly
shot the Captain dead with his own
weapon. Turning to Capt. Berry, who
also surrendered and gave up his pis
tol, asked if he was severely wounded.
The captain said he'lias, when the
guerilla said, Then, by God, I'll finish
you," and was about to shoot, when
his companions interfered. The living
and dead tse•e robbed, and the rebels
then mounted their horses and rode off.
A family living near by found Capt.
Berry, took him home, and eared for
him. Ile is now in a critical condi
