More Scldiers.
We are pleased to see our place filled
with•tbe bravo boys. We would like
to name all these who have re-enlisted
and returned, and we can say that
they look well, better, perhaps, than
when they left here, and appear to be
cheerful and-contented in the duties
of the cause in which they are enga
ged. Success to thorn and the efforts
they aro making to re-establish the
supremacy of our Gofernment.
Spring
. The spring time is rapidly advan
cing, and•cold, dismal winter is as ra
pidly retiring. We can weleothe war
bling songsters,-gentlo winds, and bal
my evenings, :but ice cannot welcome
the pest hy . day--the fly, and that
other unbearable tormentor by night
—the mosquito. They have no . fond
corner in our affections.

The imprisoned soldiers of week be
fore last, have been releases; having
paid costs of the damages, they felt so
jovial in perpetrating. They who .dance
must pay the fiddler. After being re
leased they were guardedly escorted to
the Provost Marshal, who sent•them
back to their company.
/et of April
This common moving day is fast
approaching. At this place we do not
expect much bustle, attendant on mo
ving parties, but we can pity those
who are compelled to "change their
base," and also those pasessed of a
roving disposition, and unable to con
tent thetuselvee in one position.

Rumor licfut ed.
The rumor circulated among our
citizens that two soldier darkies from
this Once were hunk by General Sher
man for being implicated in an outra
geous affair in his department, we are
informed has -proved . untrue, letters
having since been received from them.
Scarlet Fever
There are several - children of this
place afflicted with this •disease, and
three have died from its effects. We
do not think there is any lessening in
the numb& of eases; great precaution
is taken to prevent the contagion
from spreading.
Changeable
- Sunday last Was a very changeable
day in the state of the weather, sun
shine, cloude and rain following each
other in rapid succession. Indeed, so
much were some deceived in the ap
pearance of the Weather, that many
who went to church in the .morning
without umbrellas, were obliged to re
turn in a drenching•rain. Truly this
is a world of changoS.

DECISION OF TIIE SECOND COMPTROL
LER ABOUT BACR. PAY AND BOUNTY TO
HEIRS OF DECEASED SOLDIERS.—In.
ease 'where heirs of a soldier have
claimed full bounty, though there were
arrears duo by said Soldier on pay ac
count, &d., it has been decided by
Comptroller Brodhead that there is
nothing.in the law of July 20, 1861,
and July 11, 1862, :hanging the prae-_
tice under former bounty laws, to the
effect that the soldier's. indebtedness
must be deducted from Lis bounty.
Under the system of allotments, sol
diers send so large a portion of their
pay to their families that, when they
die in service, a small balance' on ac
count of pay will often be due to the
United States, which, justly, should
be deducted for the contract of enlist
ment does nett bind the Government
to give for the soldier's services month
ly pay and rations, bounty, and what
ere: balance may be due from the
soldier at his death, a balance arising
frequently cram allotments for the
benefit of the parties to whom the
bounty descends.

FRIEND LEWlS:—Being unemployed
I concluded to While away the,monot
ony of camp life by writing yoU a.
communication. As to who will be
the next President is something of
deep concern to the soldier, as well as
to the people. But yet there is some
thing else of grave import to the-sol
dier, and that is, will he have a vote
at the coming presidential election ?
His sacrifices in defence of the country
demand it, and no difference what
those men 'may think or say, who
sympathize with the rebellion, the rep
resentatives of the fuel States should
see to his welfare, and' that he . may
deal through the peaceful medium of
the ballot box a death blow to copper
headism, and to those who oppose the
Government. A man who takes life
in hand and goes to fight his country's
battles should certainly have the priv
ilege of enjoying this right, sacred to
every American citizen. And the
question is asked will he have it? The
preservation of the national life, the
speedy close of the war, and these ta
ken into consideration, are enough to
influence every candid person, if he is
a. patriot, that the soldier, Union sot
dier, the guardian of property and life,
should have his vote. One desertion
has occurred in the regiment this win
ter, it being from company D a young
man by the name of 'Stephen Cox, a
substitute from Little York; the ser
vice not Meeting his appropriation he
took a french, and left for parts un
known. DesertioWnowadays is con
sidered-rather a hazardous underta
king, and those caught are punished
severely for this military crime. Two
deaths has taken place in the 149th,
Pa., this winter. A young man by
the name of Will Bond; he was a vol
unteer I believe from Pittsburg, Pa.,
death, occasioned by chronic diarrhceri;
the other was a conscript from Perry
county, named,John- Stoner; his frail
constitution Soon broke doWn in un
dergoing the hardships of the service.
The downy bed with the - assiduities of
home. were changed for the hard
ground, and at last, poor fellow, he
has found a 'soldier's grave. Peace
to their ashes: And may what they
labored for lie consummated by
their brave companions. We had
quite a rain accompanied by snow and
the ground this morning has a whitish
appearance. lam really glad to hear
that old Huntingdon county can coin
plete!her quota without a draft. She
has the right kind of patriotism when
once rightly aroused There is Poth
.ing doing in the army of any moment
A reconnoissance was made but I have
not learned the particulars. I have
just understood that a cavalry fight
took place near, the Rapidan. Our

Terrible Railroad Accident—Three Lives
Lost.
,
The. Cleveland Reitld bi;ingS - us the
following details of a terrible railroad
accident, which. happened on the Tol
edo & Cleveland Railroad on Wednes
day night, the 10th. The Toledo Ex
press; which loft Cleveland
,at 7:55 on
Wednesday evening, was running into
Bellevue about eleven o'clock at night.
A short distance east of Bellevue is a
side track.running round to a wheat
warehouse belonging to private indi
viduals, and, , the-sl.yitch leading to it is
placed in a curve. As' the - train was
passing round the curve at its'regular
run niug rate of speed, Engineer John
Alien saw that the points were wrong.
He ithmediately sprung the Cramer
brake and reversed the engine, but
the headway was so great and the
distance so abort, that the train ran in
on the side track and dashed into some
empty cars standing there, completely
wreekingethem. The locomotive and
tender passed through the wreck with
comparatively. little injury, and the
'engineer and fireman, who stuck to
the engine, crouching down to avoid
the flying pieces, escaped without in
jury. Two Express cars, the baggage
car, a second class car, and one first
class car were smashed by the collis
ion, and in a few minutes they took
fire. Ono little girl in the second class
car was killed by the collision, but the
other passengers were got out in safe
ty. William Allen,
the baggageman,
and his brother, a brakesman on the
train, were in the baggage car at the
moment of the collision. On hearing
the Cramer brakes sprung, brakestuan
Allen ran between the piles of bag
gage to reach the platform and put
down the regular car brake, when he
was buried among the falling baggage
crushed to death, audit is supposed,
burned up, as his body has not been
found.
Baggageman Allen was also caught
in the wreck, and jammed down by
the legs so that he could not extricate
himself. As soon as possible Conduc
tor Ames and some help endeavored
to get him out, but ho was wedged in
so tightly that their efforts were una
vailing. Meanwhile the fire was
spreading rapidly, and scorching those
working to relieve the unfortunate
man. Conductor Ames had his bands
and face badly burned, but still con
tinued to work. Allen begged those
around him to cut off the leg, which
was tightly wedged in the wreck, and
an axe was found, bat no one would
Use it, until a man, employed in put
ting up telegraph poles, took it, - and
chopped off the log at the thigh. Al
len was then drawn out of the rains,
and lived about three quarters of an
hour. He was injured internally.
The warehouse took fire from the
burning cars, and was destroyed, to
gether With about fifteen thousand
bushels of wheat contained in it. No
clue to the cause of the accident has
yet been obtained, other than it was
occasioned by the switch being turned
wrong. It is reported that a number
of the boxes and packages in Express
cars were found in the morning rifled
of their contents, and it is therefore
supposed that the act was that of a
wino. ts of villians whOse object was
plunder.
Our Troops in the Field.
It has been officially stated that on
the Ist of January, 1863, the number
of men actually engaged in the impel..
tint work of suppressing the Rebelli
on was eight hundred thousand. It is
gratifying to know that official esti•
mates show that this number has not
been impaired by horses oyerbalancing
rectiperation by draft and volunteer
ing at the present time. A letter froM
an officer of repute says that the last
call of Mr. Lincoln for two hundred
thousand men was not made from Mo
tives superinduced by present or actu
al necessity, but as a stroke of milital
ry policy to put our army at one mil
lion of men for coming operations du
ring the-spring and summer.. Small
calls will be made in future to get men
to replace those who may be disabled
in any way.' As there is much misap•
prehension relative to the present
strength of our armies, and a persis
tent ant has been made in certain
quarters to.create the impression that
they would take the field, at the. Ope
ning of the spring. campaign, with a nu
merical strength inferior, or at least
not superior to that with which the
last campai g n was closed, the folloiv
ing figures; derived from an official re
port made by the Provost Marshal
General, will be read with interest :
It will be perceived that the statis
tics show adarge increase both in nu
merical and effective strength. The
number of volunteers from January 1,
to November Ist, 1863, was 62,243.
During the same period the draft real
ized 3(3,ooo—making a total of 08,243
new 'men. Our total losses in this
timii• from all causes— by battle, di
sease, captures and discharges—did
not exceed that number; so that on the
Ist, of November last the strength of
out- armies was substantially the same
as it was on the preceding Ist ofJanu
ary.- Since November Ist up to Mon
day, February 22d, there had been
formally mustered into the service tin
der the President's last call over 110,-
000 men, and 10,000 more had enlist
ed but were not yet mustered in. This
would Make our forces 120,000 strong
er than they were on the Ist of Janu
ary, 1863. Besides these, up 4o the
end of the third week of February
last 65,000 colored troops have been
reported as regularly organized, and
15,000 more 'fad been enlisted but not
yet organized into regiments. Of the
colored troops that have been organi
zed, it is stated that 25,000 are alrea
dy so efficient in military duties that
they can .be safely .employed in offen
sive operationS, and the remaining
40,000 are so proficient that they can
rot in garrisons, fortifications, depots,
&a., thus filling the place of an equal
number of veteran white troops who
are made available for active opera
tions. In addition to these the Inva
lid Corps numbers nearly .25,000, who,
in addition to other duties, arc employ
ed in garrisons and elsewhere, and lib
erate an equal number of troops who
arc fit for field duty. The result is
that the effective offensive strength of
the army at the present time hi great,
or by 40,000 men than it was op:the
Ist of January, 1863.
As relates to the number of veteran
soldiers who will be lost to Alm army
by the expiration of their term of ser
vice, it is shown that these will be
much less in number than has been
believed. The total number whose 3.
years' service will end previous .to the
first of January, 1805, is not over 200,
000. Only ono-sixth of these aro en
titled to tiieir-discbarge before the let
of August next, so that the great mass
of them, will .he available for the spring
and summer campaign now opening.
MoreOver i .there
,is a .eertainty that
more-than half of Wein will re-enlist
for the war. Up to the twenty-sec
ond of February, over 80,000 veterans
bad re-enlisted; and it 'confidently
expeeted by the War Department,
that before tho tenth of the present
month.the ti - umber will range from
110,000 to 120,000.
Hard Nuts to Crack,
Few people are aware of the large
number of impregnably fortified works
that lite being constructed ,al,Ong the
Mississippi river ty our troops—main
ly by our nebtrtql•oops;
,l y hpprcgna
ble we do not Willi tifat all these
works are absolutely bcyend the pos
sibility of capture by, any conceivable,
force ; but simply that Ogg ekl'eniA be
taken by an enemy that could bo Mar l
died or massed against them—not for
instance by the-whole military power
of the Southern Confederacy, much
less by eombined armies and navies
of France and England. The rebels
indicated to us what were the strong
est natural positions on the river; and
seine of them they made a hard effort
to hold, but in each and every instance
they failed for the want of,proper ap
pliances.
These positions, such aSPort lled
son, Vicksburgh and others, have been
taken hold of by Our troops, and ar
(Mild them have been built new works
compared with which the rebel works
.wore contemptible, while 'our appli
ances of artillery and our iron-clad
naval supports add indefinitely to
their superiority. We venture to say
that if Jeff Davis were to marshal all
the armies of the South against. Vicks
burg, ho could not capture it in twon-:
ty years, nor, for that matter,_ in
twenty centuries. And there are
twenty places on the Mississippi riv
er of which the same-thing might be
said. We should like to enquire of
Jeff. Davis what he proposes doing
about it?
