THURSDAY. JUNE 27. 1.861.
Yesterday we had to tell our readers some
thing about that fine poet, genial companion,
and arch rebel, Albert Pike, of Arkaesas•
Today, we publish a fine poem by Thomas
Buchanan Read, a son of Pennsylvania, born,
in Chester County, and proud of his birth- .
right, as his native State is proud of him. k
Mr. Read will be forty years old to March, it
1862, and has already made a reputation, as I?
artist and poet, which bids fair to live. Ho is -;
a painter of groat ability, with a facile and
graceful touch, and we believe that he can use
the chisel almost as well as the penell—the pen
as well as either, or both.
His collected poems form two volumes, of
which a new edition was published last year.
Of these, a fine reprint; illustrated by Kenny
Meadows, was published in London, some
years ago. Many critics prefer his shorter
poems—and, indeed, his gc Drillings" are
worthy of the fanciful genius of Shelley—but I
we think that, on his long and well-sustained
production, cc The New Pastoral," so redolent
of eountry-life and so true in its pictures, his,
reputation may be most securely based.
Mr. Read, who has been in Italy for over the
last twelve months, sends ns the following line
lyric, full of patriotism and poetry, from that
Eternal City which, like all imegmative men,
he loves most deeply :
I stood within the Forum, and I saw
The great triumphal temples, marble white,
Opring into splendor. without stain or flaw,
A world-wide wonder and the land's delight.
Then Came the great Deliverer, and his way
Was arched with banners and o'eretrewn with
flowers,
And
_jubilant Marione proudly SIMMS to ear,
" United Italy once more is ours !"
" United Italy !" I cried, and thrust
My voice amid the tumult of the real,
When suddenly pale Brutas from the duet
Arose, and pointed to the blushing West.
The gladness died within me, for behold
I saw a vision on the onset shore ;
A lovely woman, made by anger bold,
In maniac rage her starry mantle tore.
Sweet Peace, affrighted at her brow of ire,
Sped wildly far, and broke her olive wand,
While Discord entered with her scourge of fire,
And flaming War made bare hie bloody brand.
And Liberty, with sad averted bead, '
Pled from her presence, weeping as she dew ;
While crowned Tyranny rushed in =steed,
Completing all that Discord left to do !
The trampled nations sank and wept aloud 7.-.
Sank in despair with sorrow overborne ;
While Europe's despots, growing strong and proud,
Laughed at the sight roe direful laugh of scorn.
Oh, pale avenger of thy country's wrong,
Point me no further with thy bloody band,
I cried, nor show me unto whom belong
The terrors that afflict my native land !
My country, oh, my country ! where I stand
From Alps to Etna, pas: me rolls the cry,
That one word UNION wakes this antique land,
And leads her eons to triumph or to die !
And thou, the great exemplar, having lit
The torah that dazzled tyrants, oust then tbraaG
That torah into the can, and calmly sit
While Treason tramps your altar to the dust?
The sainted patriots cry" it cannot be !"
From titterer. they speak and from their grave;
revered ;
The God who gave them victory will not see
The temple shattered which their toil nes roared !
Written in Rome, January 6. ` 1861.
An incident Before the Bethel right.
The following occurs in a letter from Adjutant
Stephens, of the First Vermont Regiment, pub-.
liaised in St. Albans Aressenger. The oeourrerioe
took piaoe on the march of the troops to Bethel,
when they were nine mitre from FortreM Monroe
Just as we halted to sta rt to k
- • acc - tias: — ATM nail par-
sad 60 close to me that I heard it whiz—on its way
going through the coat and pants, end-just graving
the akin of. Orderly-Sergeant Sweet, of the Wood-.
stock company. The rascal was secured and Is a
prisoner, and what was done by way of stern en
tertainment to one of the F. F. V.'s you will hear
if I ever live to return. I then, as the firing to the
rear had mowed, with revolver in hand, aeoompa
nied by Fifer, approached - the fallew's house,
having some expectation of an souse of lead being
deposited in my tall body without asking my
permission By this time all our troops were
ant of sight in the woods, by a turn in the road,
and I was alone with Fifer, when acme soignee
came from the house, having less fear of two men
than of two thousand. On inquiry, the slaves I
told me that Adiutant Whiting, whom we had
Just taken prisoner, was the owner, that be be
longed to the Secession army, and that no white
folks were in the house, all having left. With-
out the ceremony of ringing, I entered and sur
veyed the premises, and found a most elegantly
furnished house. I 'took a hasty survey in search
of orms, but, finding none, left the house, and
started to overtake our column. On reaching the
bend in the road, I took a survey of the rear, to
" see what I might nee," and dieeseverad a single
soldier coming toward me, and waited for him to
acme up. I found it was Clark, of the Bradford
eompany. Before he reached me, 1 observed a
horseman Coming at full opted towards me. On
reaching the house Ito turned in, whioli induced
me to think him a Beoessiould. I ordered Clark
to cover him with his rifle, and, revolver in bend,
ordered him to dismount and surrender. lie
cried out Who are you ?" obeyer, IL Vermont
" Then raise your-piece, Vermont ; I am Colonel
Duryea, of the Zonaves ;" and so it wee. His
gay-looking red boys jest appeared turning the
corner of the road, coming towards us. Ile asked
me the cause of the firing in the rear, and
whose premises we were on. I told him he
knew the first as well as I did, but as to the
last could give full information ; that the house
belonged to one Adjutant Whiting, who, just
before, bad sent a bullet whizzing by me, and
shot one of my boys, and that my greatest plea-
Sere would be to burn the roman house in pa
ment. " Tour wide will be gratified at ones , " sa id
the Colonel "I am ordered by Gen. Butler to
burn every house whose occupant or owner fires
upon our troops. Barn it." He leaped from his
horse, and I upon the Item and by that time three
Zenaves were with me. i ordered them to try the
door with the buts of their guns ; down went the
door ' and in went we. A well - packed travelling
bag lay upon a mahogany table. I tore it open
with the hopes of finding a revolver, but did not.
The first thing I took out was a white linen Goat;
I laid it on the table, and Col. Duryea put a
lighted match to it. Other clothing was added to
the pile. and soon we had a rousing fire. Before
leaving I went into the large Fedor in tbe right
wing of the house; it was perfectly splendid. A
large room with a tapestry carpet, a nice piano, a
fine library of miscellaneous booker, nob sofas, ele
gant chairs, with superior needlework wrought
bottom. '
what-note in the corners, loaded with ar
tides of luxury, taste, and refinement, and upon a
mabogany centre-table lay a Bible and a lady's
portrait. The last two articles I took, and have
them now in my possession. I also took a de
canter of most excellent old brandy from the
side-board, and left the burning house. By
this tries the Zonave regiment bad come up.
I joined them, and in a short time gamely Witb
our rear guard, and saw a sight, the like of
which I wish never to see again, via : -Nine of Col.
Townsend's Albany Regiment stretched on the
floor of a house, where they bad 3nat been carried,
and eight of them mortally wounded, by our mien
men. Oh! the sight was dreadful. I cried like a
boy, and So did many others. I immediately
thought of my decanter of brandy, took a tin cup
from a soldier and poured into it my brandy and
filled it (the cup) with water from a canteen, and
from one poor boy to another I passed and poured
into their pale and quivering lips the invigorating
fluid, and with my hand wiped the sweat.drops of
death from their foreheads. Oh ! how grateful
the poor fellows looked at me as they saw, by my
uniform, that the usually stern officer and oom
mender had become to them the kind and tender.
hearted woman, by doing for them woman's holy
duty. One strong fellow, wounded in the head,
and bloody as a butcher's floor, soon rallied, and
wee able to converse with me. I asked him if he
knew the poor fellows around him. He acid yea,
and pointing to one, be said : "That man stood at
my side ;he was my section man ; saw his gun
fly out of his hands, struck by a grape-shot, and,
a moment after, we both tumbled to the ground
together." I went out and picked up an Bufield
rifle, nearly out in two by a ball ; said he, " that Is
his gun." I saw its owner die, and brought the
gun with me hark to my camp, and have R in my
possession.

,As the Capitoline gates are once more

me who has much frequented the classic re

3W of the habituis of such places belong to
lasses of wealth or rank, assuming worldly
osition to be rank. The reason is not that
iese persons have books of their own, are
Asters of a quiet study at home, and have no

OUR .WAR CORRISPONDENOL
The Advance of the Army Across the
Potomac.
ICorreopoodenoe of The Fran.]
WIIMANSPORT, Md., June 22, 1861.
As you are already informed, the Fourth
Brigade, under the command of Colonel Miles,
of the U. S. A., took the advance on Sunday,
the 16th instant, forded the Potomac, and
landed on the 4 %- sacred soil" of Virginia; the
five companies of regulars leading the column,
and the Ninth Regiment Pennsylvania Volun
teers, under Colonel Longnecker, being the
first of our State troops to enter the enemy's
country at this point. We were followed by
the Thirteenth and Sixteenth regiments of the
Fourth Brigade, and by the First Brigade,
under Colonel Thomas. The hills upon the
Maryland side of the river were crowded with
men. women, and children, dressed in their
Sunday attire ; and when the soldiers took to
the water, amid the hnzzas of thousands of
men, and the shaking of handkerchiefs of
hundreds of women, the scene became an im
pressive one, and should have been described
by a graphic writer- The water was about
four feet deep, and the current very rapid;
but men fighting in so good a cause as the pre
servation of our Union view such obstructions
as trifles, and the Potomac, was crossed with
out an accident, all feeling happy to think we
were drawing nearer to the enemies of a. re
publican Government. After crossing, the
column moved on, without molestation, for
some two miles, where we encamped for the
night. Soon after daylight on Monday, as our
column was commencing to advance, orders
were received from General Cadwalader, di.
rooting Colonel Miles to return to flagerstown,
which he did, leaving Colonel H. C. Long
;locker, of the Ninth Regiment, in command
of the brigade.
As great as was our regret at losing the offi
cers of the army who bad been with us, and to
whom we had become much attached, we all
felt thankful that the command had devolved
upon so experienced an officer as Colonel
Longnecker. His conduct throughout the
Mexican war, and the courage displayed by
him in the numerous battles in which he was
a participant, inspired confidence in him
throughout the whole brigade. He appointed
Thos. S. Bell, of West Chester, Pa., acting as.
eistant adjutant general ; H. M. House, brigade
quartermaster, and H. B. Edwards, of Ches
ter, Pa., aid-de-camp. On Tuesday morning,
in obedience to orders received the day pre.
views, we started upon our return to Wil
liamsport, the Fourth Brigade bringing np the
rear, with the baggage train in front. About
ten A. M. we recrossed the river and en
camped near the town, followed very shortly
after by a company of rebel cavalry, who are,
now upon the opposite hill, and between whom
and our pickets wo have had repealed
skirmishes. It was reported yesterday that
two of the rebel horees and one man bad been
Med by our soldiers; but for the.truth of this
I Cannot vouch. Certainly there was enough
firing to kill somebody or something.
The night previens to our leaving Virginia,
news was brought to Gen. Oadwalader'e head
quarters that eighteen thousand rebels under
Gen. Johnston were marching from Martins
burg to attack and capture the forces left upon
the south side of the river, and the commo
tion created by the report was great. The
regulars were taken from the cars in which they ,
had just got comfortably fixed, and marched
immediately back from Hagerstown to Wil-
Ramapo& All available troops were started
immediately, and hurried in, and every pre.
paration was made fora great battle. Gene
ral Cadwalader started a messenger, during
the night, witii.orders for us to make a hur
ried march into town, in order to save both
life and property; but the messenger not
knowing the countersign of the
pickets, and ,
refusing to halt when challenged, was shot 1
through both lungs and the left arm, which
neceasarily prevented him reaching our camp,
and left us in ignorance of what was eupposed
in town to be going on; so that we had our
sleep, and in the morning came in to learn
that we bad been in imminent danger. Lieut.
Colonel Bowman, of the Eighth Regiment
Pennsylvania volunteers, accompanied by the
colonel's secretary, crossed into Virginia on
Friday in citizens' clothes, where they were
captured and carried oil to Martinsburg. The
report at first was that both had been hung,
text..simq antk s- asigq.srptatstermiltLitave been
confined in the prison at that place. The rea
son for Mr. Bowman's pursuing the course he
did is a mystery to all, as nothing could be
gained by the excursion, and, as has proved
the case, everything to be lost.
The Fonrth Brigade is now erecting forti
fications to command the passage of the Po
tomac. There will be two twenty-four pound
ers and one eight-inch howitzer. This work
has been superintended by Capt. Newton and
Lieut. Babcock, United States Engineers, as
sisted by Mr. George Farrell, of the Ninth
Regiment. When it is completed our troops
will be able to pass and repass at pleasure. It
has been hard work for our men this hot
weather; hut as we are in the advance, it is
obligatory upon as to do the work necessary
for the protection of camp, as well as to lead
in battles.
A report has just come into camp that some
of the rebel cavalry are crossing into Mary
land, some miles above us. They will be re
ceived warmly should they come here or give
us an opportunity to get near them, for all are
spoiling for a fight,» and oar colonel anxious
to gratify their desires.
I neglected to state, in connection with our
trip into Virginia, that the pickets of the
Rhode Island Regiment had been fired upon
by the rebels. They failed to hurt any one,
but the Rhode Islanders killed one of the
traitors and carried another off with them to
Washington. X.
Letter from Camp Wayne.

CAMP WAYNE, WEST ORESTES,
June 25, 1861.
The First Regiment of the Reserved State
troops is now thoroughly organised, and sta
tioned at this point. The companies neces
sary tor the completion of the Second Regi
ment are also on the ground, but the officers
have not been elected, and, of course, the
regiment is as yet in a crude state. For the
position of colonel in the latter regiment there
are numerous aspirants; among others, ex-Al
derman Haines, of rhiladelklitt, who is sup
ported by the three companies tram your city,
in the regiment. The rank and file of the
organization here take interest in these elec
tions ally for the purpose oe securing good
officers, of sound integrity, good judgment,
and military skill. Your correspondent is sur
prised that men will accept the responsibility
of high military positions who scarcely know
the right from the left flank. •
In all our skirmish defeats thus far, and I
predict in all future defeats, the , cause has
been attributable to lack of judgment in the
command; and the responsibility of all this
should righteously rest on the shoulders of the
men who appoint and elect these bungling offi
cials. We are grateful for the stand assumed
by. The Press on this really very Important
question. Keep it before the people, and do
not allow the gallant rank and file of our Com
monwealth to be slaughtered through the
stupidity of their officers. We are baying
a glorious time here at this moat pleasant
camp, generally enjoying good health, and
anitous to "push on the column" to the very
heart of the rebels' country if necessary. I
need not mention the kindness and hospitality
exhibited towards ns by the citizens of the
beautiful village of West Chester. The Bran
dywine Guards of the village, under command
of Captain Nields, are stationed in camp, and
attached to the First Regiment. They have
made themselves deservedly popular, are men
of fine military bearieg, and will give a good
account of themselves when the occasion re
quires It. It is thought the First Regiment
will be ordered from here this week, probably
to Cumberland, Maryland. The Press is dr
enlated pretty generally through Camp Wayne,
and we are all anxious to see it when we desire
reliable news. FEHOIIILE.

[Correspondence of The Prese.l
HUNTINGDON, June 25,.1861.
Have you ever visited 'Huntingdon ? Yes,
we saw you here a few summers ago, in
company with your excellent literary editor,
Dr. Mackenzie, George Schaffer, of Lancaster,
Mr. MeElhone, and others. Yon know, then,
bow beautifully it is located on the north
bank of the " blue Juniata," surrounded by
romantic hills, from whose tops can be seen
our fertile valleys stretching far in the dis
tance, now burdened with their ripening trea
sures. This is s spot of Poetry beneath whose
shades lovers meet and mingle, and youth and
age unite in admiration of the inspiring beau.
ty of blooming Nature.
Five miles to the north of our town are situ
ated the celebrated Warm Springs, owned by
Gen. A. P. Wilson. In their front, Stone
creek rolls its beautiful waters, filled with
pike, trout, and innumerable attractions to
the disciples of Old Isaak Walton. In their
rear, Warrior Ridge lifts its romantic summit,
inviting the seekers of pleasure to embrace its
refreshing shade, and cc view the landscape
o'er." The medicinal qualities ,of these
Springs are well known, as the vast throng of
visitors each year testifies. Gen. Wilson has
saved no expense to adorn the grounds and
improve nature with the finest inventions of
art. He has now everything in splendid rea
diness, and offere to the invalid and lover of
rural retreats a sweet exclusion from the dusty
walks of city life amid the wildest and dearest
beauties of Nature.
Our citizens have recently had fine oppor
tunities tor the exhibition of their patriotic
liberality. The soldiers—two thousand in
number—who were ordered last week to Cum
berland via the Broad Top Railroad, were
lavishly provided with all kinds of provisions
at this place on Saturday; and the First Min
nesota Regiment, which paned through here
East this morning, were liketvise tarnished
with abundant refreshinents• for the' gc inner
man." We are a unit on the war question,
and our ladies, dear creatures ,
are wild in their
efforts to do something for the it poor sol
diers."
Political parties have "gone under,"
and
we hope they will remain under. We have a
prelident Judge of this (Twenty-format) Judi•
cial district to elect this fall, and all the mem
bers of the bar in the several counties com
posing the district have addressed a letter to
our present judge, Hon. George Taylor, re
questing him to be a candidate for re-election;
"without respect to party." His honor has
replied in a letter'of great feeling and power,
consenting to be the candidate of the people,
and approving the spirit which, in this perilous
crisis, ignores party, and knows only country.
Judge Taylor has presided over our courts for
about fifteen years, and liming that time has
won for himself a reputation for integrity and
ability which will , be . a rich legacy to his
children when he is. gone.' Uniting courtesy
with dignity, he possesses the unlimited confi
dence of the bar, and is the idol of the people.
A. long acquaintance with him compels me to
pay this tribute to his worth as a men and his
ability as a judge.
Yours truly, it, M. $.
[For The rress.]
Have we reinaugnrated the ancient system
of warfare—a war of ports 1 If not, who can
account for the disposition of the Federal
forces ? For months, -several thousand men
have been Cooped up in Fort Pickens, await
ing the leisure and convenience of rebels to
make - an attack upon them. • They will then
defend!
&t Fortress Monroe, another post, there are
some twenty thousand or more troops patiently
awaiting the action of rebels !
At Fort WaShington there is another force
standing on the defensive—waiting !
Around Weebington there are fifty thousand
men, who have erected earthworks, some ten
or twelve miles long, and covered them with
guns, and are seated behind them, waiting!
At Cairo there is another entrenched camp,
of 40,000 men, waiting, waiting !
Is our army actually invested and penned
up by those whom it was their 'object to re
duce to obedience ? Let ns hear the truth.
If this policy does not mean something else
than an effort to restore the unity of the
country, then it is indefensible. The people
should consider it. bhntting our troops up

cannot do this, then they are independent, and
the world will soon regard them as such.
" But is the object Of the delay to discipline
your troops—to make them veterans ? While
you are doing this your adversaries are doing
the same thing. Yon gain nothing. Three.
fourths of the troops in the field have been
more or less disciplined before they entered
the service. All know how to use fire-arms,
and are confident in their ability to fight. Al
most three months' severe discipline has been
received by four-fifths. Napoleon marched
out of France with his conscripts, and par
sued the allied forces, in half the thus for pre
paration. More than a majority had never
fired a gun. A more active and glorious cam.

of success only by diplomacy.
Is it tree that the Confederate States have
commissioners at Washington ? Are there
agents and commissioners in New York ? Mr.

This result was unexpected to the members of

by two emotes: First, the hope of uniting a large
portion of the late Douglas and Bell and Bverett
parties with them when they met again, on .the
234 of .Tel,T, upon a common basis of opposition to
the Administration, it being a general impression
among them that a reaction will take place in popn
lar sentiment within the next four or Ave weeks,
which will array a powerful party in the North
against President Lincoln and hie war policy.
Secondly, the inability to fix upon their standard
