PKKSKNT VOR MAJOR MATHEWSI. —We
learn that the ladies of Shamokin, I'a.,
.through Rev. A. I). Hawn, hive presented
Major Mathews with an olegant gown as a
testimonial of respect from the "mothers,
wives, sisters and personal friends of the
members of Company K," of Col. Knipe's
regiment.
Major Mathews will remain in town un
til Saturday morning, and will take such
recruits lor the Logan Guards as may offer

Probably at.least a dozen will go with him.

will visit Lewistown to-morrow (Thursday.)
ttaj~JACOB Dl< os, a much respected
colored man, for mauy years a preacher in
the Methodist Church, died on Saturday
morning, aged about SO years. He had
been a slave, but left his owner, and
-übsequently redeemed through we believe
the Hale family. His funeral was attend
ed by hundreds of the colored population,
and a large number of white persons.

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. Yours, &c., H

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.

ORDER NO. 20.
I. The General commanding takes pleasure ;
in announcing to the Brigade his satisfaction j
with its conduct whilst under the fire of the
enemy, and he is proud to say that it met with ,
the applause of all who saw it.
11. The coolness and conduct of Company I
C, Ist Penna. Cavalry, in covering the retreat
of Friday deserves the thanks of the Com
manditig General. Corporal Christian Hum j
iek, who was wounded, will be recommended j
for promotion for his gallantry.
Whilst in the charge of Major Falls' Rat
talion, the gallant and cool conduct of Cap- j
tains Taylor and McDonald, Lieuts. McKwen,

Britcher alike deserve the applause of all.
j 111. The capture of 20 of the enemy by
| Capt. Janeway, of Lieut. Col. Kargs' com
mand, on his daring reconnoisance. was a well ,
j executed manoeuvre; and he has the thanks of j
, the General commanding; whilst the conduct !
ot Captain Broderick and his command can
| never receive sufficient thanks.
I\ . The charge of the Ist Battalion, of Ist
Perm a. Cavalry, upon the enemy's lines gal
lantly led by Major H- J. Falls, under the
order of Major General Ranks, was bravely
executed, and the General commanding would
remind the men that in a charge the safest as
well as the most honorable plan is close to the
enemy, with pressing spurs and ready sabre.

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
