To TOL BLITZAZT COYSIFIZZZ or Bare.
LC[oE—Gentlemen :—ln obedience to(yoar
appeifftmerat I proceeded to the city of WIZ,
iagton on the 15th day of May for theitur
pose of inquiring after and ministering a the
itch and wounded soldiers of 'Wetter. Penn
iyivania. Oa my arrival in Washington I
found . the task to be much more difficia:t even
than I had anticipated. Oar men aro scatter
el ever more than twenty hospitele, cod it it
seldom that more than two of them oats be
found in the came ward, so that much time
has to be spent in collecting the names. I
travelled en hour and a half through Hare
wood Hospital in search of ono man. I availed
myself, however, of the asitiatence of the
Pennsylvania Snag Agency in the National
Metropolis. and was enabled to rend lists of
cur tick and wounded, which, although very
imperfect, were as complete as could be ex.
putted under the circamatuices, as soldiers
were being transferred, and bieught into the
hospitals once or twice each day. These
Hots, both printed and in manuscript, I hope
you received.
Having aecompliabod all that could be ;tut
then aceomplished, I 'mate to l'rederieksbarg
so the Mole of last week. Oa my arrival, I
was put eompletelj Sere dee camera, having
had to march abont twelve miles in a broiling
sun, and carry my baggage at the same time.
As soon as I was able, larwovor, I prosecuted
my minion in accordeace with the iustrut,
liens given. Hare the difficulties aro more
insurmountable than is Washington - . I think
I can lately say that the hospitals can be
counted bore by the hundred. . All the
churches in the city—many of the rebel
dwellings, and a largo number of stores and
warehouses have limns set apart for hospital
purposes. To visit the tithe of them and
ascertain the names of the inmates would be
a work of a month for ono person. Bat if it
were in my power I wouldnet leave a wound
ed mon here longer than be could bo trano
ported to a more healthy atmosphere. Just
Imagine one, two, or three deceit of mea
thrown into a corner grocery store of very
email dimensions, and etrawa over the leer
without nay bids to He upon, and you will
hare a perfect parrs of nearly the cue-half
of the seven or eight theitand men that ore
here at present.
The various Rolle Associations and Com
missions are doing everything in their power
to supply the wants and alleviate the suffer
ings of those bravo men who have periled
sheir lives In their country's defence. Of
course the Sanitary Commission la the groat
Institution. It Ita, more ample resources then
any other, and greater futilities for transpor
tation. _
No lees than twenty•flve four-horse wagons
arrived bare yesterday from Belle Biala well
laden .with everything necessary for hospl
tale both in the town and ea the kid. Fxsd
toksbarg is the headquarters of the Auxiliary
Belief Corps fer-the Army of the Potemso.
Beery physician who has charge of a hospital
can make a requisition for whatever is need,
od and hie order is immediately filed. It is
almost incredible the amount of emus that
are inned is &single day. I was curious
enough to note down a few of the items
which the Commission distriluttos. The fol.
lowing in only a very few of them: Crutches,
vegetable soup, bumf and vegetables, farina,
condensed milk, concentrated extract of cof
fee, freeh turkey (In cansdtotentoes, pieties,
eggs (m large numbersd rout turkey, fens,
pocket handkerchiefs, chloride of lime,
oranges, lemons, lee, shirts, drawers, sponges,
wash. basins, pillows, pad., medico, choco
late, Indio rubber cushions, lint, bandages,
ginger, cheats,:sites, whisky and brandy.
I base not emraced in this many nitieles of
the utmost utility, and which, perhisps ' would
never occur to hundreds who take thedsenest
interest In our soldiers.
Botween thirty and forty wagons are in
constant rsqursitient. Two steamers and two
barge. are running almost avoty day batwaae,
W►rbiogwa and Bello Plane, and one swam ,
cr gees regularly up James river. There are
about 210 agents permanently employed in
affording relief.
At protim, the Sanitaryleinio2 has
as abundaace of stores to meat all domande.
This it very providential, as several of the
other Comstimione have re:wooly anything oa
hand.
If, gentlemen, you will only bring your
powers of calculation to bear upon the state
meets given above, you will see at once that
it will noire more to supply the itercheutos
of the Sanitary •ommle:ies, than to give a
Dew stock in trade to a corner apple stand.
The amount of stores issued far exceeds the
sales of some of the largest warehouses in
she country. Think of bow much it will re
quire to keep the vast machinery is motion.
You can easily calculate the musing cost
of about forty wagons and tire steamers. The
stores they carry ace not Co sassily ealrulated.
The •tawmente, however, far the trntb of
which ample evidence can be produced, are
iuffielent to satisfy all that the Sanitary
Commission has not more leads than it needs,
and even if it had, it will seed hundreds of
thousands to provide artificial limbs for those
whe have lost legs and arms in the defence of
their codutry's
Mere battles have to be fought : more rap.
plies and . nurses will he needed. Let ear
pimple be prepared to meet every emergency.
Jost now aunts to the battle field Is impos
sible, and esthete are nurses and aupplies in
abundance, both there and here, and one base
of Supplies will, in all probability, use his
shifted, I may soon return to Washington,
Of some 01110 f C021 , 41111511t point, await your
orders and the. developments of impending
battles.
It ie-my opinion that a mere glance at the
operations of the COmmission woald convince
the mint skopticel of its importance. Sant
terity it it far ahead of any other institution
that I known!. Everywhere I want ,the sol
diers said, "If there era any of the Sanitary;
boys abont, we will protein Thom from the
guerrillas " I think I have seen landrids of
officers and men on their way to their regi
ments, and friends boats:igniter their
nla
(tree, furnished with :board, at lodging,. or
both, by the Commission. •n Otter, who is
now being supplied at my left, says, "the
Sanitary Commission LI a glorioas institu
tion."
I am under many obligations to John 11.

Brrmin, May 19, 1864.
"Wu. FIAEILDfT, EgQ Editor of Batley Arai,
ican :—Doar Sir. The 'kind partiality of
number of friends hoiing Induced Them to
express a desire that I ehould be a candidate
for Congress, I have tbought it proper, in
declining to be a candidate, to state the
reasons whisk influence my judgment. The
name of the Eon. Thothas Williams is nein
before the people of rids eongressional die
trict for re-nomination to the position ho now
occupies es our Representative in Congress.
Whilst we have no disposition to disparage
the merits of others who aspire to a seat in
Congress, it may bo tristhfrilly said that Mr.
is one of the ablest members of the
body, and has rendered efficient and ablo sup
port to all the measures of the National Ad
ministration. No firmer or truer friend of
President Lincoln is to bo found in Congress.
And it is well known that no member can
exercise so much !influence as the rare whit
has experience end screed' in Congress sev
eral years.
In these times of Our National troubles
when the very exietento of the republic, is
menaced, and the public mind so intensely
occupied with new, from ear Army, now
fighting the most sanguinary battles of the
War, unnecessary party strife, and especially
for nominatierts, should be avoided as far as
practicable.
Tho greatest questions that ever occupied
tho American Congress ' will oacupy•the earn
est consideration and labor of the next Con
gress. It is therefore eminently the interest of
the people that the Representative who has
proved able and faithfuLahould he continued
and receive the encouraging approbation of
his constituency.
Would it be regarded fair or just to apply
a different rale to Mr. Williams, from that
whieh has been applied to all his predeces
sor" in the counties of Allegheny, Armstrong
and Butler, for nearly half a century. Party
usage has invariably given to the faithful
Representative a re-election, and to general
and well settled hat this rule became that the
-Ron. Josiah Coply, who was nominated two
years ago by Armstrong county, has magnan
imously withdrawn Ms name from thecae's"e
as a candidate at this time and advised his
friends to eupport Mr. Willi ams. Such adhe
rence to well established roles is commenda
ble. That portion too of Alleghearconnty,
which forms a part of this Congressional dis
trict has already rcnotniniited Mr. Williams
by acclamation.
How ; is it as to former Repratentatives in
Congress loom the district now composed of
theectuitite 'named t Some forty years ago
Robert Orr was elected • and re elected. Since
then John Gilmore was elected and re•elect•
ed, * Samuel Harrison elected and reelected,
Joseph Bufbngton elected and re elected,
William Beatty elected and re-elected. Al
fred Gilmore elected and re , eleeted, Thomas
M. Howe elected and reelected, Barred A.
Piarviauce elected and re-elected, Robert
McKnight 'dieted and re-elected, Then.
Williams has been elected but once. Now
why should we make as exception in his wise,
and give to him a different record front that
of all the other honorable gentleman we have
. naractl; or, in other words, would it be right
to give him but one term while all the others
have bad two torsos 2 Weald it not imply
censer° without cruse for it? It 13 well
known, too, that we are all, with unsurpassed
unnnimity, supporting the re nomination and
election of President Lincoln for.a second
torn, and I am unable to see hew we can con—
sistently,, at the thi.ll. me time, oppose the
re nomination of ter Representative in Con
geese who has had but , ono torso; end who Is
faithfully supporting the some principfas and
censures that we 10 Mach admire In the Na
tional Administration.
Theo suggestions, made in an hiadnass
will, I trust, be satisfactory.
Very truly yours,
Jana N. Puarrarica.

W. Swinton, correspondent of the New
York Voce, sends the following dispatch to
that paper, dated "Headquarters Army of it.,
Potomac, South Bala of the North Anna
Ricer, Iday 25th, 12 m." After throe weeks
of marching and Oghting,.the Army of the
Potomac L sixty miles from Its starting point
north of the Rapidan, eatery - planted south
of the North Anna River, within twenty nee
ranee of the objective point which to; three
years has been the goal of all the ble.d and
straggle of tbia army.
The experience •f the two weeks we spent
before the lines of Spottsylvani.e, brought the
°Deviation that tbst position °mild nut be
canted, save by an expenditure of blood out
et all proportion so the results of any victory
that could be achseved there. 'To hem been

Tee head of. the column of the Fifth corps,
Gritat's division leading, reached the. North

Immediately on crossing, Grifte's division

Passing tram the position of Warren on
the right to that of Hancock on the left, we
find his oorpa engaged at the souse time with
the 6th, although uo , lko Warren, who passed
the river unopposed, he had to carry his
crossing against severe opposition.
As I bare already mentioned, Hansocler

Six or eight handrail yards north of the Anna l i
is a long mock which runs parallel with the

happily one of great strength, being a point
where the Anna makes a bond in the form
of a horse-shoe s
thus affording a secure
point for both flanks. Early yettorday
the whole of the 6:h corps (Wright's,) filed
oval:st this point and took position in the

afternoon relieved by part of Warren's front.
