ANOTHER GALLANT PENNSYLVANIA BEGI* MENT RETURNING. {Correspondent of the Phila. Evening Bulletin.] ~ Headquarters First Army Corps, m&rchdth,' 3864. —'the 56th Pennsylvania Volunteers, Col. W. J. Hofmann Commanding-, have re-enlisted as Veterans, and -will probably leave here for Phila delphia on Tuesday next and arrive on Friday or Saturday. As it is one oi the most gallant regi-. ments in oar Corps, I, as a Pennsylvauian. wish that the people of Philadelphia-may know some thing of its history, in order that they may be pre pared to give it a becoming welcome. It was the regiment that opened the battle of Gettysburg on the Ist of July under Reynolds: it fired the first volley, and it# men were the first to shed their blood in that great engagement, consequently Pennsylvanians: were first in that strife, as u should hare been. . The regiment has been m IXIO following battles: Rappahannock, August, 1862. Sulphur Springs, August, 16 62. Gainsville, August, 1662. Bull Run, August, 1802. South Mountain, September, ViQi. Antietam, September, 1862. Union, November, 1862. Fredericksburg, D ® c ®“ b , B^V 86 "' ? o , ?d, I ;nsu“p ; Srtof6 a v a lr yi June, 1863. Gettysburg, Ju1y,.1863. Mine Bun, December, 1863. Colonel Hofmann, commanded a brigade at tie battles of South Mountain, Antietam-and Union. He b*g been honorably mentioned in the official reports of battles frequently, and at Gettysburg he and his regiment were particularly distin guished. In this engagement three color-bearers •were shot in his regiment. . The regiment does honor to Pennsylvania, ana stands very high In the old First Corps. Having had ample opportunity of learning the standing or the different regiments, I, can say with pride that the 56th has never misbehaved. FBO2X NEWBEBN. f Correspondence of the N. Y. Times.] Newjiebk, March 1, 186*. Onr atmosphere is quite warm again. Bumors have been for some time in circulation of the advance of a heavy col umn of the enemy’b forces fdr the conquest ot Nowbern, and we are anticipating that Jeff. Davis is about to make ano her effort to realize hii threat to take this place be : ore we celebrate another anniversary of its capture by Gen. Barnside, on the. 14th of March, 1862. Brigadier. General Palmer, commanding forces and defences of Newbern, was called fyom church on Sabbath morning by one oi his scouts, and in the evening he held a consultation with the Su perintendent of Negro Affairs, Capt. James, rela tive* we suppose, to calling the colored men into service, if necessary. Yesterday an order from the Provost Marshal, Capt Denny, made its ap pearance, warning ail white citizens able .to hear arms to report immediately for duty. The rebels have been building an iron-clad at Kinston, and it is now reported ready for action. It is commonly expected that this formidable ves sel, as it is called, will take part in the. coming engagement. Onr navy has been reinforced, and is eager for an engagement, and we expect tbat if the enemy bring with them this boat, abont which we have so long heard, Its epitaph will soon be written. Fora very sufficient reason, I do not care to state the number of troops here. This much is true, we are better prepared to receive the enemy than on the first of last month. POLITICAL. New Hampshibe Elbotiok New Hampshire went into her election yesterday under the most discouraging circnmstances for her Unionists. Governor Gilmore was last year beaten 3,793 votes by the opposition candidate, and only saved from defeat by the strong vote thrown for Colonel Harriman (War Democrat), which, added to Gil more’s, overbore that or Eastman (Dem.) 574, enabling the Legislature to elect Gilmore. Now, it appears from partial retnrns, that Gilmore is elected by the People by over five thousand votes, in spiteef onr heavy loss by the absence of thou sands of soldiers. By a despatch from Concord we learn that in one hundred and fifty-five towns the vote stood: Gilmore (Uni0n)....... Harrington (Dem.).... Scattering Gilmore’s majority, New York—'The £oi/diers to Vote. To-day’s Tribune says Yesterday the people of this State ratified by an immense majority the act to amend the,State Constitution so that oar brave soldiers and sailors in the Army and Navy can have their political rights in future elections. The vote is light, as almost everybody on the right side con sidered the affair: concluded bej T ond doubt by the passage of the bill. This city cast about one-third of an average vote—the yeas being about two-thirds of her full Uiyoh vote. Brooklyn did something better, and together they give 17,732 majority for the Amendment. In the Country the yeas had it all their own- way; at this writing we kno w of but two towns in the State that go the other way, and they are.Gochecton and Tiusten,m Sullivan county, looking at their vote for Governor we cannot say that any one ought to be surprised, as they gave 577 for Seymour to 143 for Wadsworth; now they say,- by 183 majority, that soldiers shall not vote. We. wish them joy of the reputation they have won—MackrellyUle and the Five Points are distanced. PERSONAL. Says the Pittsburgh Chronicle of Tuesday: Gen. Grant arrived in this city last night. At the depot he -was met by a large concourse of citizens, and received a 'warm and enthusiastic welcome. Loud calls were made for a speech, but with his charac teristic modesty, the General could not he pre. vailed on to respond, and simply bowed his ac knowledgments to the multitude. In a brief con versation with the Mayor he stated that he was no speaker, bnt even if ho were he had been traveling fifty-two hours, and was not In a condition to make a speech. He'was going to Washington, he said, .and would be happy on his return to meet his Pittsburgh friends and pass a few hours with them. The General is a man of less than medium statnre and very modest demeanor. He wears his beard clipped short, and there is nothing what ever about him, beyond the stars on his shoulder, to indicate his rank; During the brief stay of the General in the city, he engaged freely in conversa tion with those around him, and many availed themselves of the occasion to take him by the hand His roception was exceedingly enthusi astic, and on leaving he was loudly cheered Pelatiah Perit, a prominent merchant of New York, died at his residence in New Haven, Conn., on Tuesday morning, aged 76 years. He was re cently President of the Chamber of Commerce in New York, and of the Seamen’s Saving Bank, and has been active throughout a long life in the management of other important' financial and charitable institutions. He graduated at Yale College in the class of 1902. AMUSEMENTS.

Queen Victohia’s Abdication.— I The Memo rial Diplomatique makes itself responsible for the extraordinary statement that at a recent Cabinet Council on the Danish question, Queen Victoria rose from the table, declaring that she could come to no decision without consulting with Prince -Albert, retired to her closet, and on emerging, announced that the Prince was hostile to, any act of war by England. This unmistakable proof of mental aberra tion is said to have determined Lord Palmer ston to urge the abdication or the Queen; and the fact that, instead of joining his mother at Osborne, the Prince of Wales has gone with his princess to St. Leonards, is interpreted as an indication' that Edward VII. is preparing to mount the throne and to inaugurate a new foreign policy in the affairs of Great Britain. It is certain that the present attitude of the English Government cannot long be maintained ‘(England is to keep her place as a power of the first rank; and if the abdication of Victoria is a necessary preliminary to vigorous and !

It is proposed to hold the Fair in Philadelphia, in the FIRST WEEK IN JUNE NEXT, and it is con fidently expected that the contributions coming from a popula ion so benevolent and patriotlo as that which inhabits tfia Central States, and repre senting the mos: important and varied branches of industry and art, will secure a result-in aid of the funds of the Commission, and for the benefit of' the Soldier, at least equal to that which has at tended similar undertakings in other cities. It is not necessary to say a word to stimulate sym pathy for the soldier. We feel for them ail as brethren, and the popular heart seeks only ths best mode of manifesting that sympathy in the most efficient and practical way. These fairs in other places have been productive of great results. By this means Chicago has recently raised for tbi. object *OO,OOO, Boston *160,000. and Cincinnati more than *200,000. We appeal, then, with the greatest confidence to the inhabitants of the Cen tral States, especially to those who constitute the .great industrial classes, to send aB contributions the productions of their skill and workmanship. We appeal to them in the interest of no psrty, radical or conservative, Republican or Democratic, Administration or anti-Administration. We know only this, that to send onr national soldiers in the field supplies to supplement those Goverment un dertakes to give them, but which they sometimes fajl to receive, and thus to relieve them when sick and in misery, is a work of Christian charity, and that it is a -work of intelligent patriotism also, ae economizing their life, health and efficiency, on which, under God, the nation depends in this its time ot trouble. We therefore ask every clergyman to announce this humane undertaking to his people, and to ad vise them to do what they can to further it. We ask the press to give it the widest publicity and tbo most earnest encouragement. We call on every workshop, factory and mill for a specimen of the best tbing it can tnruout; on every artist, great and small, for one of his creations ; on all loyal women, for the exercise of their taste and indus • try; on farmers, far the products of their fields and dairies. The miner, the naturalist, the man of science, the traveler, can each send something that can at the very least be converted into a blanket that will warm, and may save from death, Eome one soldier whom government supplies have failed to reach. Every one who can produce any thing that has money Talue is invited to giTe a simple of his best work as an offering to the cause of national unity. Every workingman, mechanic or farmer, who can make a pair of shoea or raise a barrel of apples, la called on to contribute some thing . that can be turned into money, and again from money into the means of economizing the health and the life of our national soldiers. Committees haTe been appointed in each depart ment of Industry ard art, whose business it will be to solicit contributions for the Fair, each in its own special branch. 1 hese Committees will place themselTes in communiaation with those persons who may wish to aid us. In the meantime it is recommended thatlocal committees or associations should be formed in every portion of Pennsylva nia, Delaware and New Jersey, with a view of organizing the industry of their respective neigh borhoods, so as to secure contributions for the Fair. Committees of Ladies have also been organized to co operate with those of the gentlemen in soli citing contributions. A list of all these Committees 'trill be shortly published and distributed.

A teaspoonful a day of the Constitution Water will relieve you like magic.

We present the Constitution Water to the public with the conviction that it has no eqnal in relieving the class of diseases for which it has been found so eminently successful for curiug; and we trust that we shall be rewarded for our efforts in placing so valuable a remedy In a form to meet the require ments of patient and physician.

There is another class of svmptoms arising from IRRITATION OF THE WOMB, which physi clans call nervousness, which word covers np much ignorance, and in nine cases out of ten the doctor does r.otreally know whether the symptoms axe the disease or the disease the symptoms.

During the month of July, lb6l, I pro cured two bottles of Constitution Water, and- in two days after using if I experienced relief, and after taking two bottles I was entirely cured; soon alter regaining my UEnal good health. Yours truly, J. V. L. DEWITT. Boston Corkers, N. Y., Dec. 27, IS6I. Wm. H. Gregg A Co.—Gents—l freely give you liberty to make.use of the following Certificate of the value of Constitution Water, which I can re commend m the highest maimer: My wife was attacked with pain in the shoulders, whoie length of the back, and in her limbs, with Palpitation of the heart and Irritation of the Bladder. I called a physician, who at tended her three months, when ne left her worse than he had found her. I then employed one of the best phy siciads I could find, who attended her lor about nine months, and while she was under nis care she did not suffer quite as much pain. He finally gave ber up and said, her case mu in curable. “For,” said be, “she has such a combination of complaints, that medicine gicen for one operates against some o her of her difficulties. ’' About this time she commenced the use of the Constitution Water, and,to our utter astonish ment, almost the first dose seemed to have the de sired effect, and she kept on improving rapidly under its treatment, and now superintends entirely her domestic affairs. She has not taken any of the Constitution Water for about four weeks, and we are happy to say that it has produced a perma nentcure. WM.M. VAN BENSCHOTEN. Wethersfield, Conn., March 2, 1663. Dr. W. H. Gregg—Dear Sir—Having seen your advertisement of “Constitution Water,” recom mended for inflammation of the Kidneys and Irri tation of the Bladder, having suffered for the past three years, and tried the skill of a number of phy. sicians with only temporary relief, I was induced to try your medicine. I procured one bottle from your agents at Hartford, Messrs. Lee, Sisson & Co., and when I had used half of it, to mv sur prise I found a great change in my health. I have used two bottles of it, and am where I never ex pected to be in my life, well, and in good spirits. I cahnot express my gratitude for it; I feel that it is all and more thaa you recommend it to be. May the blessing of God ever attend you in your labors of love. Yours, truly, LEONARD S. BIGELOW.
