We hear of the lst Brigade-Ist, 2d, Bth and 12th or Bucktail Regiments—to which the Fifth was formerly attached, having reached Alexandria, where they are to be stationed. The Second and Third Brigades, the latter commanded by Col. Fisher have doubtless before this time reached their place of des tioation—Waihington, '.probably, .or some point in the vicinity. We hope these splen did regiments may speedily succeed in refill ing their ranks, and again take the field against the Rebels to whom they have so repeatedly proven the folly of the rld seces qiun boast of superior courage and powers. We question whether the soldier now exists in the rebel ranks who will rank himself as equal to more than one of the Pennsylvania Reservee. The order of General Reynolds, detaching the Ilcserves from bie Corps, to report to Gen. Heintz°linen, at Alexandria, closeses follows: "In separating 'from the 'Pennsylvania Reserve Corps, with which the Contutund ing.Geoeral has been so closely allied fur the .past eighteen months, ho cannot but ex press his deep regrets. They are, however, lessened .by the tobpethat soon their thinned ranks will be tilled, and they, once more restored and reorganized, will be returned to the ti'ld prepared to add new lustre to a name already endeared to our patriotic State. LADIDs' SuLDIEB3 AID SOCIETY.—The so ciety held ite weekly meetings on Tuesday Feby. 3d, at Mrs. lloice's, and on Tuesday, Feb. 10th, at Mrs. Ferguson's; both meet ings was well attended and the usual amount of se ~ rk was clone.

ANY LIWRKT : —The box sent by ..Soldiers Aid Society," of Columbia, came to hand last Thursday, and I assure you at a most opportune moment, na a number of invalids had come in a few days previous most of whom were very destitnte a cloth ing. On the 510nday before a large num ber had been sent to their regiment*, and to them we gave everything we tied in tho way of clothing, so shut until the arrival of your be; ee had nothing on hand but a few pairs of en.ckiiige. I went mostly through the hospital tv distribute the articles, awl only regret you were not with me to see how thankful the poor fellows Were. Many of them not having had a change in five or ski weeks, having lost all at Fredericksburg. We have received several boxes this winter. but to the L•idies of Columbia, we award the palm of knowing how to get one up, for we consider it " The Box." Please present to them my thanks on behalf of the North Baltimore Relief Association, and the suf . - ' fering soldiers of llcKim's Hospital. Our ladies still labor as zealously ns eve-, and our interest in the wurk in:de:L.l.f declining increa'e', There are now over four hun dred patients in the hospital; fur about one hundred of the number we prupitre all the articles of diet and furnish them out of our funds not only with the delicacies, but many of the substuntials necessary fur their cum fort. Our library is quite Intrishing. the chap lain believes it has a must beneficial effect upon the men, as it has almost entirely su perseded card playing. I wish, however our friends would send us more miscellane ous works, fur we find the convalescents in quire oftner fur histories, books of travels, or novels, then they do for Religious works. I suppose it is but natural to want theta as it is a monotonous life. With my best wished for the continued usefulness of the "Soldiers Aid Society of Columbia." I re main truly yours, ANNA Buie.

Army Correspondence CAIIP OPPOSITE FREDERICE.SUURG, VA., } February &h, 1863. DEAR Srr:—.ln my last I promised not to write again until something bad turned up worth writing about. Since then, Burnside. has been reinored, Sumner and Franklin re tired. and Hooker appointed to the command' of the Army of the Potomac. The Penna. Reserves have gone. to IVashington; and, better than all, we are under orders and about starting again for the South. One division of our Corps has already gone—we are to bring up the rear, and expect to be off to morrow or next day. We go to For tress Monroe, and thence South: when we arrive, I will write you of our whereabouts. I am truly glad to get out of this Army of the Potomac; glad too to getout of the mud, and gn where we can get rations and cloth ing. 4er experience is that the nearer troops aro to Washington, the nearer they are to nakedness nod starvation. What rascality leaves undone in that line, red tape finishes up. We bid goad-bye to the Army of the Potomac; other Corps may de light in it and Virginia mud; I never could see the point. We are still enjoying good health—the sick list of our regiment is but nine to-day: none of them rare seriously ill. Since my last we have bud two deaths in the regiment —privates Ross, of Company C, county, and Christian Shank, of Bainbridge, Company B, Lancaster county. We Inset, also had one real live deserter—the only genuine deserter since the organization of the regiment Five of our men, when march ing through Washington in September, un fortunately got tight and could not overtake the regiment: fearing punishment they have managed to remain absent without leave ever since. The deserter is no less a per sonage than my old chum Roine, of Com pany K. Just before the last forward move went he managed to get citizens clothes and during a dark night sloped. I hope he will ' nut disgrace Columbia by his presence. If ho dues don't let bins stay. We don't want him back in the Company, but cannot bear the idea of having our town disgraced. Ile was recently reduced to the ranks (from ist Sergt.) fur getting drunk, at least so read the order. It is more than hinted however. that the real cause was for getting out of breath when ordered into the battle at S etas Mountain. The Colonel has bad him spot ted since then. This being the only case of deliberate desertion from our regiment, I have noticed it at length. Our Colonel sent a recruiting party to Co lumbia several months ago: not having re ceived the recruits or hearing from the party, it is supposed that they too have doffed the uniform and become citizens. Another party will be sent soon to open an office, as rumor says the new draft will create a spirit of patriotism among your citizens. We have room fur a few of them. ills anything been done towards enlisting the Tow-Ilillers under the Stevens Bill? Mild is cunning. By this bill he settles many points, and rids the free States of free tiegroes- The good and brave darkies will enlist, be sent to the front, and thence to 'rhe rest to avoid the draft, will run fur Canada or role co,tri ly. flurry up the draft and harry up the soldiers—black or white: let thorn come: Rebel bullets and bayonets are not reqpect ere of persons. If your politicians are op posed to black soldiers, lot them come them selves—or hold their peace. The paymaster has nut arrived. lam in formed that the troops will not be paid un til March or April, the $L00,000,000 will be consumed in settling up to let of November. Our regiment was paid to that time, in No vember, consequently will not be in receipt of any pay fur sums weeks. We don't grumble at the government fur not paying us promptly—we can do without money our selves, but our poor families That our dear children should suffer for want of food. simply because Papa Is far away, makes the stoutest of us shudder. Strung, stout men, that 'mid the din of battle 'toyer faltered, aro overwhelined with grief ,and misery when appealed to from dear goes at home fur help, for food, and the means to keep them from perishing. Truly yours, "45." W4R NEWS! HIGHLY IMPORTANT FROM THE SOUTUERNQOAST.

PHILADZLPHIS, Feb. B.—The splendid English iron steamer Princess Royal, cap tured of Charleiton by oar bloelading feet. arrised here this afternoon Gll the nay Yard, in charge of Acting Master Edward Venice, with a prize crew. She brings highly important intelligence fry= t he Southern eoast, both as relates to her cap ture and the Rebel attack on aur Wattling, sq u eaten off Charleston, showittg,cottelosive Id that there is no foundation for the assump tion Of the Rebels that the blockade of Charles ton was ever raised by the departure of the (Jailed States fleet. Oily two vessels out of the eight or the eight or ten blockading the port were dis abled and obliged to leave. Not a vessel was sunk or captured by the Rebels. It appears from the statement of an intel ligent eye-witness that the cause of this attack of the Rebel rims on our squadron was owing to the capture by us of the Eng lish steamer Princess Royal, the Captain and Pilot of that vessel having eseaped ashore during the darkness of the night and communicated intelligence to the enemy. The princess Royal, as already stated, endeavored to run the blockade by way of Beach Inlet on the 29th but was discovered by the pilot boat Blunt, and on the signal being given the gunboat Unadilla procee l ed towards her and captured the valuable prize without any other assistance. It was then discovered that the Captain 'and Pilot had succeeded in getting ashore by theit smell boat, carrying with them important despatches for the Rebel G••vernment. The Mercedita carried her prize to the Housatonic and laid there till daylight, when the thunder of heavy guns heard accomp anied by short flashes of firing. It wits at first supposed that WI: fleet were engaged in making other capture+, or thut the Rebel pirate steamers Alabama or Florida might be endeavoring-to force an entrance. At daybreak two Rebel iron-clads were seen coming slowly from the direction of Steno Inlet towards our fleet. They attack ed the Mercedita first; one struck her on the water edge, keeling her over, and at the same time fired a shot which entered one of her boilers, causing the death of three per sons, iaeluding a gunner, by the combined effects of the shot and steam. D. F. GRIFFMI. A. J. !Caul-ell/Ls A. M. RAMBO. Committee The Rebel ram then hailed the Mercedita, and C.tptaio Stellwegen lowered one of his small boats, after leaving one of the plugs out to allow the water to enter it. The ram answered our hail by replying, "Confeder ate ram Palmetto State. Do you surrender!" This was repeated throe times. Cup'ain Stellvragen at each inquiry replying, "I am in a sinking condition." The Itebcls answered, "Cod—you to—, if yon don't surrender we will blow you out of the water —send your boat aboard." The boat which Captain Stellwagen low ered then conveyed his Lieutenant and Executive officer to the side or the Rebel ram, and the officer asked to be admitted aboard. This was refused. The Lieutenant then repented Captain S•ellwagea's statement that they were in a sinking condition. The Rebel officer replied, "Yuu can't sink lower titan the rails. We cannot take you aboard." The officer then gave his parole as demanded and returned to hie ship. The Rebels were then success fully deceived - as to the condition of the ereedita, thinking she was in n sinking condition. 5443 laid in shoal water. mid hence their reply that she could not sink lower than her rails. 'rho • ram now steamed to wards the Keystone State and sent a shot through her steam drum, causing the death of twenty-one persons, twelve by the shot and Hine by being scalded by the escaping steam. Fifteen were wounded and are now lying nt Port Royal, some in a precarious condition. In the meantime the United States gun boat llousaronic engaged the other ram, driving her away, and at G./ o'clock in the morning both rains left the scene and pro ceeded up tu Charleston. During this attack on the fleet, the Princess Royal, which laid near the asusatenie, and which was 1710 doubt the chief object of the Itebels, succeed ed in getting off, mainly through the energies of Third Assistant Engineer Thurston, who piled into her fires all the inflatursable material at hand to get up a gond head of steam, and her escape is no doubt chiefly owing to his endeavors, as well as her sure arrival at this port, notwithstanding the severe gale which prevailed on the coast during tier passage from Port Royal. Although supplied with inferior coal instead of anthracite, with which our navy is supplied, she made ten knots an hour on her trip with case in the heaviest weather. Her usual rate of speed is fifteen knots. The Mercedita, so far Iron sinking steamed down to Port Royal, eu••rpiag with only one o f her bailers injure I.

The Charleston Expedition. SAILING or 125 VESSELS FROM BEAUFORT, N. C.—Bosrox, Mass., February 9.—A New ham correspondent, who has just returned from Beaufort, N. C., lifrites under date of the 31st ultimo, as follows: The sailing of the expedition for, I believe Charleston harbor, was one of the grandest sights I ever witnessed. The fleet consisted of obout 125 sail of vessels: steamers, trans posts, tugs and sch-ooners. At about II o'clock on the 30th ofJanua ry the sails of the ratios small craft were loosened, and silently, one by one, in close order, they glided from the harbor. Next followed in rapid succession the steamers, stare-ships, transports, tugs, and all. It was a magnificent sight—one long line of vessels, crowded with troops cheering. The bands were playing and the colors stream ing from the masts. I counted seventy-eight schooners and store-ships, and thirty-two steamers, con taining a very large body of troops, At dark the vessels were still passing the forts. The, gunboat Daylight had reached More head City front the blockading squadron off Charleston. The officers of this vessel re port that the iron gunboats Passaic and Montauk, a number of mortar vessels were at anchor in Bull's Bay, near Charleston, when they left. The 4th Massachusetts regimeot, and some other regiment at Newborn, had been ordered on another expedition, which was to start on the morning of Feb.
