Our Army Correspondence.
CAMP NEAR MORRISVILLE, VA. I .
Sept. 7, 1863.
EDITOR: The expedition which
we mentioned in our last has again re
turned. We were wrongin supposing
the expedition would proceed down
the peninsula, lying between the Poto
mac and Rappahannock rivers. The
Ist and 2nd Divisions of the 2nd Corps
'eft camp on the 31st of august; the
Ist Division going to United States
Ford, and tne 2nd going to Bank's
Ford on the Rappahannoe river; some
twenty-two miles from our present
Ramp. They proceeded to those fords
And relieved Kilpatrick's cavalry, who
were doing guard duty at those fords.
The cavalry muter the leadership of
that gallant and dashing officer, be
ing relieved at the fords, proceeded
down the Rappahannoc river in order
to destroy the two gunboats captured
by the enemy some time since. They
;Went as far as Fort Conway where
the boats wore lying, and sunk the
Age : and entiroiy disabled the other, so
that the great feat of capturing two
wooden gunboats, by the artifice and
treachery of the enemy, has after all
,not resulted in much good to the Con
federacy. There may have been SOUle
bad management somewhere. The
loss is, however, comparatively noth
ing, but it gave the Richmond papers
an opportunity to let off some of their
well known bombast at our expense.
They hind lieutenant Wood almost to
the skies for this little act of 'Opache
ry. This same Lieutenant Wood they
say is a nephew to Gen. Taylor. Could
the old hero of ItTexican fame see into
what deeds of treachery and villainy
nephew has sank instead of olici.
ling praises from him, ho would, we
think, be sorely rebuked for his trea
son against the government of his fa
thers; lie p4vApy cpconn tered a few
'Regiments of intaa try near Fort Con_
way, but they made the best , of ti}eir
escape across the river on a wither
pf small boats. They opened on our
filen with musketry, ; as they were
about leaving, but did no injury. The
Cavalry haying pptirely appomplished
whet they were to do, came to the
ford on Friday tho 4th and again re,
lieved the )stand 2nd Divisions. They
arrived in camp on the orening of the
4th, covered Ntith dust and loaded
down with green corn, which they ap
propriated to Uncle Sam's service, as
they passed through Vane Seeesh
cornfield, on their way to camp. While
our men were guartling the fords, the
enemy's pickets on thdother side ap
peared to be very intimate with our
men, and in several instances Caine
across the river to havo a " social
chat" and to get sonic of our papers.
They appear to bo very anxious to
get news, which shows very conclu
sively that the truth is kept from
them by their bogus Government.
When they hear of the advances our
armies are making in all parts of the
South, and the peaceful manner with
which the draft is received by the peo
ple of the North, it will no doubt fill
them still more with gloom and des
pair, and give them less faith in the
ultimate triumph of their arms. While
our Division was at United States ford,
several of our officers visited Falmouth
and the vicinity of our encampments
last winter•. They found the people
in a deplorably destitute condition.
Sonic have scarcely- as much of the ne
cessaries of life as will keep them from
starvation. The inhabitants of Fal
mouth, say that they cannot possibly
see how they will live the coming win
ter, unless our army again occupies
that place, so that they can draw pro
visions from our commissary's. It
matters not what people may say
to the contrary, but it is a known fact
that,the peopro between the two ar
mies here, aro almost in a state ofstar
vation. The commissary's of our
Corps supply all the citizens within
our lines about Morrisville, and many
come from beyond our lines for provis
ions. It must indeed be somewhat
humiliating for the once proud F. F.
V's to Come to our commissariet to
draw their provisions from the n de
testable yankees." They cannot
avoid looking somewhat chagrined
when they have their allowance weigh
ed out to them, yet that stern old mon
ster "hunger," compels them to do so.
One Mr. °Mention, living near Fal
mouth declared to our officers, that he
did not know what to do with his flint
ily, as ho is not able to procure the
necessaries of life for them. This man
before the war broke out, was very
rich, but both armies have now been
praying upon his property for a year
and a half, and have brought him to
poverty, and even almost beggary.
The suffering amongst the people hero
is certainly great, and some aro to be
pitied:in their destitute condltion,while
others wo think arc merely receiving
the just reward of their iriignity. The
poorer class elicit the sympathy: of
every one,•while the proud, haughty,
traitor is but reaping the reward of
his treachery to the government.
These proud Vatalines of the Ameri
can Republic are pow receiving the
reward of their conspiracies as did the
conspirators of the ancient Roman Re
public, and we think their punishment
cannot be too great; yet the poor,
who in some instances are still loyal,
could not roll back the storm of pas
sion at the commencement of the re
bellion and hence must suffer with the
proud and arrogant, who commenced
this fearful strife which has already
cost so much blood and carnage.
These same men who aro receiving
their daily bread from our govern
ment, are the most bitter against our
cause. There is a German living in
Morrisville, who has a son in our army.
lie is in battery G, 4th - United States
Artillery now camped we think at
Warrenton Sanction. A few weeks
since, his son came to see him, but the
poor old wretch of a father, on account
of the hatred ho bears against the
cause in which his son is engaged,
would not ,peak to him, nor even
scarcely looked at him. The son be
ing convinced of the justice of the
cause in which ho is engaged left the
poor, ignorant old father and returned
to his battery and daty. This same
old apostate, now denies that his son
ever came to see him, making his trea
chery still more hideous by the addi
tion of a consummate lie. What ob
ject he has in denying this, we cannot
say, unless he feels ashamed of him
self, when he thinks of the foolishness
of the deed. Such men the govern
ment has te deal with. How dastard
ly in a man of foreign birth to act
such a part against the government
which protected him, when ho was
perhaps exiled from his native land
for some similar act of treason. Such
men as this, have attempted to over
throw our government, yet there is a
class of men at the North, who seek
with all their power to aid these mon
in their hellish cause. Just such men
have caused the best Wood of the land
to bo shed, in order that they may act:
complish their selfish ends. Tho sol
diers are daily-insulted by such God
forsaken wretches, yet the insult•tbat
Northern Copperheads help IMO the
soldiers, by their treasonahle proceed
ings, aro felt far more keenly than the
mere words of hatred that,' naturally
come to the car of the soldier in the •
4eld from the enemy in his midst. The
_oneis considered a natural consequence,
the other an insult and injury to our
paase. Tho soldiers from ponnsylva
nia look with the greatest solicitude
upon the coming election for Govern•
or, The, entire hope of the soldiers
hangs upon that election. Gevernor
Curtin is considered the true friend qfl
the soldier, and if he should fail to car
ry the State in the coming elections, all
hope would be gone. Jet people say
to the contrary what they may, but
the re-election qf Governor Curtin,
will be considered as great, t victory
by the NPlrliera of Romniylvania now
in tho field, as if they would gain a
great victory, while on the other hand
the election of Judge Woodward would
be considered fully as disastrous as a
defeat upon a battle field. The sol
diers consoled themselves with the
hope that they would be allowed to
vote, bqt, it appears that we are to be
denied that privilege. We hope, how
ever, that the Old Keystone will prove
worthy of her former glory and will
put Andy in by an overwhelming ma
jority. Time still drags on its monot
onous train of camp duties. To at
tend to reveille, tattoo, morning and
evening drills with some light picket
ing constitutes the soldiers entire du
ty. The green arbors made qf green'
boughs to shade the tents are commen
cing to tern yellow, which gives the
camp quite a dull appearance. Rain
has entirely ceased to full in this part of
the old Thiminion. Water is becom
ing very scarce, and what little there
is hero, is scarcely fit to use. The
mornings and evenings aro very cool,
but at mid-day old Sol beats upon us
with his warmest rays. Some squads
of conscripts or rather substitutes still
continue to come in. Sonic soon take
the back track and are not hoard of
afterwards. Eleven out of ono hun
dred and sixty seven belonging to the
145th Penna. Vols., have vamoused
within ono week. That is 'almost as
large a number as have deserted from
our Regiment of nearly a thousand
men in two years. They will however,
not be allowed to remain long at home
unmolested. They will certainly have
to suffer the penalty of the law, when
they aro caught, which they certainly
will be unless they leave the country
entirely. PILUM.
CAMP Coucu, near Harrisburg, 1
Sept. 6th, 1863.
Ida. EDITOR: Having a few leisure
moments I concluded I would drop
you a lino for the columns of your pa
per, which I have had the pleasure of
perusing for several years; and as our
company was formed principally in
Huntingdon and Fulton counties, I
thought it might be proper. to send
you the roll °four Company. Wo are
now in Camp Couch near Harrisburg,
and have a very pleasant camp. When
we first arrived here we were thrown
into the 22d Battalion of Penna. Cav
alry, and wore ordered to Chambers
burg. After laying there a few weeks
in camp,' we wore transferred to the
20th Begt., Pa. Yob Cavalry, and or
dered back to Harrisburg on detached
service- Tho Regiment is now near
Hancock, Md. It is commanded by
Col. John E. Wynkoop. We are Co.
M. Our duties here are light and we
are enjoying ourselves finely. The
boys are all well and in good spirits,
and ready for any kind of duty. I
believe I have given you the particu
lars, and 1 will close for the present by
giving you the roll of the company.—",
Perhaps at some future time, will
write you again. lam your obedient

On Tuesday the Bth inst., Mrs. Pars•
Iviro of Jahn Love, Big., of Ma
nor Hill in this county, in the 68th
year of her age,.
The deceased was born and raised
in Juniata county, where most of her
kindred and relatives at present reside
and for more than thirty years had
been aresidont of the immediate neigh
borhood, in which she died. An inul
gent parent, kind friend and sympa
thising neighbor, she possessed the es
teem and confidence of all who knew
her. Early in life she embraced chris

follower was precious to her in all her
sufferings, and did not forsake her
when passing through the dark valley.
She leaves a husband, children, and
a large circle of friends to mourn her
loss.
