PKKSKNT VOR MAJOR MATHEWSI. —We learn that the ladies of Shamokin, I'a., .through Rev. A. I).

Correspondence of the Gazette 'Camp Chase, on Arlington Heights, j August 21st, 1852. j At 5 o'clock on Tuesday erenirg wc were ordered to strike tents in Camp C'ur hn, and in an hour's time the regiment was on its way to Washington City. We trav eled in common truck care with benches in them, and it was the roughest road I ever passed over. Wc started from (.'amp Cur tin about G o'clock p. m., and arrived at Baltimore about daybreak, not sleeping a wink that night. We re-forwed our regi ment, tnarohfid to the Camden depot, aod got the Baltimore Union Sol diers Refreshment Saloon. We left Bal timore at 7 o '.clock a. jn., and got into Wasliir ton at 2 p. m., and got dinner—a mighty hard dinner it was. The regiment then formed and took up line of march for Arlington, through a boiling sun and dust 'hoe-top deep; speaking of dust, I may ~ ere say, the dust was so deep that we could v^ard iy see the platoon in front of us. We halted at the Long Bridge, and there the men broke ranks to get water —I myself hmog nearly thirsted—after which we cros sed the bridge. And we are now encamped | n an apple orchard which is leaded with fruit, and belongs to the Government, be- | Q g confiscated. Some of our men are out tearing down fortifications, it being only a ground work, calculated to mount 6 or 7 p°s. There are forts all around us, and •? morning and evening we can hear the booming of the 69 pounders, which makes the earth fairly tremble. Our reg taent (131 st) is armed with the Austrian ri fle, said to be a very fine gun, and our men * r e all wishing to try them on secesh. Wo K* C 8 ne named Allabach, *ho has seen some very hard service, Capt. hautt our Lieut. Col., and Robt. Patton °ur Major. Our regiment numbers 1000 strong, ail( i we are we {] satisfied with our position. I suppose we will not leave here for some time, but you shall know when we ! do leave. I must now close, rs [ think I will be on the 2d relief to'dig away the earthworks, but when our company is off duty I will give you all the particulars I can gather.

PAY AND BOUNTY FOR DECEASED SOL DIERS. —The Pennsylvania Belief Associa tion, owing to the fact that agents charge heavy fees for obtaining arrears of pay and bounty for deceased soldiers, has requested J. A. Williamson, Esq., (son-in-law of Rev. Dr. Woods, deoeased,) to attend to this business, and that gentleman has patrioti cally consented to do so xoitlwut charge. Ueirs of deceased soldiers can therefore address "J. A. Williamson, Esq., Pay and Bounty Agent Penn. Relief Association, Washington City, D. C-," with the assu rance that the widow and fatherless will be protected in all their rights. Our exchan ges will we hope make this generous offer known. weather continues warm, with but little rain. WHAT BOYS AND GIRDS CAN Do.— We learn that the Cove Mills Sabbath School, through A. P. Blymyer, last week deliver ed to the Ladies Soldiers' Aid Association 230 quarts of dried blackberries, and about five bushels of onions. This | shows what boys and girls can do, if dis | posed to engage in something useful, and j ought to incite the young of this town as j well as elsewhere to inquire "what can I | do for the benefit of the sick and wound ' ed ?" Mrs. E. Hoffman, Secretary of the As sociation, also acknowledges the receipt of a donation cf more than Si from the Sab i I hath School ol the Lutheran church of our ! town, to be used for the benefit of the sick l and wounded. She says : i May the example of these schools b* follow ed by others, and wo shall have tiie pleasure i of knowing that the fathers, brothers and friends who have left their comfortable homes to defend our country's rights, and perhaps to die in their defence, are not forgotten by the children. Can not the children of Lewistown do something for the comfort of our brave soldiers? Let them make the effort, and I 1 ain sure they will succeed as well as those in the country. following order accompanied " Rapidan's" letter last week. Head Quarter* Cru.

By command of Brig. Gen. BAYAUII. 11. C. Weir, A. A. G. Jtay-The Democrat seems to rather like the republication of its disunion article last 3*ear, in which " President Davis" was so highly flattered and complimented. It is stated that the French Council of State is occupied in trying to devise some means of rendering Fiance independent of America for her supply of cotton. Reports have been made by Government commissioners of tlio possibility of raising cotton in Senegal, the French Antilles. Guiana, Corsica, Algiers, and M dagascar.
