George It. White, a leading and patriotic j
merchant of Pittsburgh, volunteered his ser

procure blankets for Pennsylvania soldiers,
but was unable, even with bis extensive ac
fpiuuisanoe with uianufacturersandmerchants
to find any army blankets. The great demand j
from the United States and all the patriotic J
States had swept the market. The United I
States Government, waiting iu vain for the j
manufacturers to bring forward their supplies,
have been compelled to send to Europe fur
blankets and clothing for the soldiers of our

CAMP WILLIAMS, Oct. 21, 1861. j
On Monday at five o'clock just as we were
forming for evening parade, the 46th rcgi
ment Pennsylvania Volunteers, (Jul. Joseph
• Kuipe, received orders to march, and our
coys as well as nur worthy staff and company
officers, were almost franticwithjoyatf.be
prospect of a brush with the enemy, or gome
thing at least to relieve the monotony of the
quietude of camp life. Soon all was bustle
and confusion, knapsacks were packed, tents
were " struck," rows of large kettles filled
with bacon were strung along the camp
hres to cook a few days rations for our jour
ney, and nearly all on the " sick soldiers"
hst immediately recovered, the news proving
® better panacea than our Surgeon's pres
By ten o'clock P. M. we were
ready to bid adieu to Gamp Lewis and start
ed-—i>ur departure from a pleasant home,
which had its romantic incidents, and fond
associations being heightened by the glare of
enormous boDtires which had been kindled
with straw, supertLus barrels, boxes, Jtc.,

thirteen miles from Camp Lewis* which we
reached about three o'clock in ffce morning,
when we were informed Cif the terrible j
slaughter of a portion of our"froops who had
crossed the river at Edward's Ferry, and of j
the perilous position in which the remainder
were placed. It had just began to rain; j
many of our men, owing to steady and rap
id marching had given out, and many of
those left were greatly exhausted with fatigue, '
. but all cheerfully moved forward; those who j
1 had given out, on hearing the news seemed
infused with renewed vigor and caught np
! on double quick, and notwithstanding the
| inclement weather we were all again on the j
march. As we proceeded, ambulance wag
gons, in fact almost every kind of conveyances
: passed us containing such of the dead and
j wounded as could be secured, to a general
; hospital which had been established at Pooles- j
ville ; stragglers from the battle covered with
blood and dirt, and in search of their regi- ;
uients and companies, were stopped and ea
ger ears caught up each story which they re- !
lated. The road was full of officers, sar- i
! geons and assistants, and messengers flying I
j to and fro in the fulfillment of their various j
i duties, and every movement seemed but to ;
j add to the excitem nt By daylight we reach ;
j ed the hanks of the Potomac, hut owing to
; a want of facilities to cross the river, there
being only but a few old scows or flatboats, j
we baited in the woods, and wrapped our
weary bodies in our blankets, laid down to
rest in the mud, the rain still continuing to j
, pour much faster than was pleasant to poor
mortals like ourselves without shelter. Many !
! slept sound, but others of a more curious na
ture were constantly on the alert for news.
Yesterday I witnessed ash ot engagement
of a few hours duration from the shore of the
i Potomac. They were about a mile distant,
! and I could distinct ly see the movements of,
all the regiments. It was truly a glorious
| sight, and the boom of cannon, rattle of!
j musketry and whizzing of shell and bullets 1
j through the air, would have been better eu ,
joyed could we have had a hand in it. We j
i may cross to-day, and if wc do, or at any !
! time get into a skirmish or battle, you will ;
hear a good account of the 46tli.

TWOItfoNE.
J The art and science of meeting your en
j euiy always with two men to his one seems
! to the general public much better under
j stood by the Insurgents than by the Gov
; eminent troops. We have already lost
some valuable officers and much prestige by
the manner iu which the Rebels have
overreached our commanders; and the
death of Colonel Baker, yesterday, must, ;
| we suppose, be Counted another of these
j cases.
There is a disposition with the public to
! blame our officers lor this, and it is eoin
~ monly said that the Hotels constantly out
general us. But the public is itself to j
blame for almost every disusUr of this
Lilid which has happened to our forces. —
| it is but right that wo should be impatient i
I • •
' of the progress of the rebellion ; the pres-
I once ol an insurgent in any part of the 1
j I'iiion is an insult to our national dignity.
But this impatience leads us into many er
1 rors of judgment. What would the North ,
j say, for instance, of a general who should, j
having, like the Rebel Price, advanced as
| far as Lexington, on the Missouri River,
| immediately abandon his prize and retreat
the whole length of the State without
• once offering battle to his pursuers?
The luckless commander who should j
; make such a retreat would receive even
more persisteut abuse than General Fre
mont ; and, unless he deliberately shut his j
eyes and ears against the newspapers and
pursued his own plans in silence, he would
| inevitably be forced into a battle at the j
j wrong moment —as we hope Fremont will
j not be. And yet, the retreat ol Price is a
masterly movement. Every uiile brings
i him nearer to his reinforcements, aud takes
, Fremont further from his base.
So in Kentucky, Zollieoffer, having gain
ed stores o' salt aud beef cattle by a raid
1 into ('la}* and Laurel counties, at once re ;
! tires south wa d to the Cumberland Gap, i
though he has a very respectable force with
which to face our troops, lie prefers to
i retreat to day in order to teal a strong blow
to-morrow, lie and Price are both pre
paring to play the uaua! game of two to
one.
But, suppose Fremont should not follow
! Price ? Suppose Sherman should retreat
through Kentucky before Zollieoffer or Lee? ,
' Suppose General Polk were to advance in
to Eastern Missouri, and our troops there
should retreat before him ? We should
hear a storm of indignation at ouce, 'imbe
| cile,' would be the mildest word, and the
I loudest voices in the crowd would demand
the removal of a commander who darcl to
i have an opinion ol his own, and who cared
to meet the enemy, not where the enemy and
the public desired, but on the ground of
his QWU choosing.
What the nation has a right to demand
| of a General is that he shall beat the ene
my. But it must also give him time, men
and discretion,
i We shall perceive more and more, as the
• campaign fairly .opens, that this war is ve
ry much like other wars, aud tjjat to dis
tract a General in the field by newspaper
advice or by public impatience, or by offi
cial restrictions, is to disable liirn, and per
haps oblige him to give battle when he
would not otherwise —to take the odds of
two to one, rather loan face the ignorant
i rage of the newspapers, and to perish as
Lyou did, as Baker did, and as Fremont
may, rather than, by prudent delays, anger
j the public and save the cause.
The battle of Bull pun showed most of
the journals that thjjrwould do well to re
frain from criticmus an military affairs,
which cannot possibly be understood at a
distance 'from the field i f operations, and
by writers necessarily ignorant of the
means and circumstances of the opposing
Commanders. The newspapers have,
therefore, jery discreetly avoided all criti
cism on Generals McClellan, Wool, Ander- j
son or Sherman , but, very singularly, Fro i
mont has been made an exception to this
most wholesome ruie. He who alone has
been activly engaged in the field so far, is i
the butt of every fault-finder, while those
Generals who have spent months instead
of weeks in preparation, and who have
done really nothing but prepare, are trea- ;
ted with that civility and forbearance
which surely a General in the field de
serves and needs as much as his brother offi
cer who stands on the brink of active ope- j
rations.—A r . Y. Post.
&3LWe have been shown a document j
signed hv the Mayors in offiec-of the cities
of the United States and Canada, certifying i
to the superior excellence of Dr. Ayer'sCom
pound Extract of Sarsaparilla, and to the j
value of all his remedies as articles of great
public utility. Such evidence from such ;
high sources bears us out triumphantly in j
the position we have long maintained with !
regard to Duct. Ayer's preparations, or more
particularly our advertisements of thorn. No j
publishers need be more exposed than we are j
to the promulgation of quackery iu any ;
shape, hut we knew when we began that his !
remedies were above any suspicion of decep- j
tion—that they were about the best it is pos- j
sible to produoe for the cure of disease, and
that they have the confidence of all couimu- '
nities where they are known. Not alone bei j
cause the Mayors of the whole country be
■ lieve them useful to their people, but because
we know from experience that they are so to j
' ours, do we believe we are rendering a sub- I
| stantial service to our readers in making their
! virtues known to them. — Courier, Princeton,
