ARMY CORRESPONDENCE.
The Twenty-ninth Pennsylvania Volnn-
Camp near Muddy Branch,
Twenty-ninth Pa. Vol.,Nov. 13, 1861.
Press : Tka dull monotony of eumnJife
remains undisturbed at present, and wc could al
most wish for another march, tiresome as they arc,
to keep up the excitement, and relieve that stagna
tion which inevitably settles upon the iiilfid, wliOJi
compelled to endure tho same unvaried routine of
duties daily. Variety is indeed the spice of life.
Last week we lost one of our comrades, resulting.
I am led to believe, by 45ip6§UFfi, to tho SBVfirfi
stom of Friday week. On the day of removal
to his home in Philadelphia, the regiment was
turned out in parade order, and our company (C),
of which decked was a member escorted the body
with colors iu mourning, part way on tho road to
■Washington. Sadly and slowly we marched along
the winding road to Itockville, with arms reversed,
und mournfully the soleiaa musto echoed, through
the silent forests that skirted tho road. The yellow
and purple leaves rustled along the road-sides, and
dark clouds hovered on the murky sky. and as the
funeral column passed, slaves deserted their field
work, and leaning over the snakefenccs which here
abound, gazed in silent wonder on the procession,
and, IKHT find then, a soldier stepped from the road
and raised his cap in silent respect to a departed
comrade —for we are all comrades in this glorious war
for the Union. At the forked roads, our guide, the
commissary sergeant, halted, and wc were drawn up
in line, on the road-side beneath a targe oak, where
our chaplain addressed a parting condolence on be
half of the company, to the bereaved father. And
as the ambulance bore from us the last remains of a
good comrade and fine soldier, wo marched sadly
but quic&y back to camp, for the rain was now de
scending heavily. Tired and muddy, wo entered
our tents fully impressed with the sad ceremony and
last farewell to our comrade Lewis £?• Metz- Ad
mirably fitted to him are thoso beautiful words of
Halleck: “None knew him but to love him. none
named him but to praise.” Capfc. Mtilison and
Lieut, Stic? deserve credit for their attention to
the preliminary arrangements.
Our regiment is in excellent condition, and would
prove, I think, very efficient in action. Time,
however, can alone tell that. Our colonel is a good
Commander and beloved by all. Our ionls arc
scarcely proof against the severe weather, but I un
derstand that our quartermaster is endeavoring to
obtain us better ones. Too much credit cannot be
given to himself and sergeants for their Attention to
the welfare of the men. Should anything of inte
rest transpire in this vicinity, you will again hear

KCIIOOXEIt, AJSD BBCAFTUitfii
Camy Sites, Charles <k>, Afd.. Nov. i>, 1861.
Our camp, the 26th Regiment, P. V., Col Small,
has been moved to within about two miles of Bird’s
Perry, where the rebels hay* opposite a very large
battery. 'Wc have a small one on our side also.
Our new ground is well-timbered, and we have
plenty of water, the best I have seen since I left
iu May last. The whole regiment
are now at work pulling up log shanties ; some of
them are very tastefully built, and before many
days we will have ihe largest a town this side of
Washington. We have a large number of carpen
ters; fcrickfii&k«s, bricklayers, £o., in the regi
ment. which makes it no difficulty in our building
progress. At tho briek-yard to-day, might be seen
quite a number of the citizens of this vicinity look'
ing on in amazement at our men making brick, a
thing one of them told me he had read about, but
never seen. We do not know how long we may
remain here, but we intend to have comfortable
quarters while we are here, and when we leave
there is no doubt they -will soon find tenants id oc
cupy theiu. The people in this section are very
indolent, and their houses seem to he &U going to
decay. Our privates’ houses will accommodate 1G
men. Al the boust3 frill be m&d& WiUr-ligM.
Sickles’ brigade have been flung in advance of
us, in the direction of Acquia Creek, so we have the
Potomac on this side well guarded; while General
Casey T s brigade remains at Port Tobacco, which
consists of four New Jersey regiments and one
from the District of Columbia.
We are putling in position some very heavy
mortars Opposite to Quantico Creek, up which lies
the rebel steamer George Page. The engineers
who have charge, in selecting the site for the mor
tars. say we will be able to destroy the steamer,
ftnd shell the rebels out of their stronghold at this
point.
Steamers U/iion, Freeborn, ice boat, and others
remain still between Acquia Creek and Bird’s
Ferry watching the rebels. With a spy-glass loco
motives ean be seen to arrive and depart from
Acquia Creek to Richmond and Manassas Junction.
Last Sunday afternoon, five dare-devils of the
Eleventh Massachusetts Regiment took it into their
ho&fiß to g 9 over to the other side of the river.
So they got an old batteau, tore an old tent in two,
which made a sail, and started, and reached the
other side in safety. They remained about half an
hour, but wero not molested, when they reerossed;
The rebels could not have been on watch, or they
would have been captured, or they were only
trying to draw us on.
Quite an exciting seene occurred, five miles above
us towards Washington, yesterday afternoon. It
seems, as & schooner loaded with wood was working
her way up the Potomac, a new rebel battery opened
OU her, It was the first time the battery had shown
itself. The first ball struck the vessel, and their
fire was so well directed that the captain and crew
of the schooner let go their anchor, took a boat, and
landed in safety on this side. The picket guards of
the First Massachusetts gave the alarm) when Gen-
Hooker ordered the Massachusetts First with a bat
tery to repair to the scene. He also ordered the
whole division under arms, for it was reported the
rebels were about to cross the river at that point.
When our troops arrived at the river where the
vessel was, the rebels had boarded her and get her
on fire; the wind was light and it had just com
menced to rain, so the fire made but little progress.
The first thing we did was to got oar large gnus in
position, while about forty boys of the First took a
boat and storied for the schooner, which was still
lying in the middle of the river. The rebel guns
were then fired at the but not a shot took
effect. The vessel was reached, the fire put out,
her bow headed for our shore, a rope made fast—
the boat with the men left and arrived in safety,
and the vessel hauled out of harm’s way. The
rebels fired some seventy balls at the men in the
boat, but the boat was covered by the vessel after
she got some distance out in the river. The scene
was witnessed by a great many of the inhabitants
of this region, who were astonished to see nil the
men return safe, when srf many balls had been
thrown at them.
A detachment of thirty men, under Lieut. John
Mstirnth, Of Company D, 26th Regiment, Pennsyl
vania Volunteers, hare been detailed to take charge
of the balloon, under Professor Pullen, who is
making observations of the enemy’s force in Vir
ginia. Prom what I can learn, it seems the enemy’s
forces on the other side are very large. Their en
campments reach as far as the eye can see with the
most powerful glosses towards Manassas. To-day
they are apparently falling back on Richmond, but
they have done so so often since we have been here
that there is no doubt they are only trying to draw
us on.
The weather is very cold and disagreeable. A
heavy firing is now going on on the other side of the
river. I suppose they are popping away at some
unfortunate oyster boat running the blockade.
The proceedings of the court martial in the ease
of Capt. Samuel S. Rankin, of Company*'®, 26th
Regiment, have been made public. The captain hfttt
been dismissed from the service.
Lieut. Allen, of Company E, and Lieut. Giesen
berger, of Company H, 26th Regiment-, Pennsyl
vania Volunteers, have tendered their resignations,
which have been accepted.
Sergeant Woodward, of Company A, has been
appointed sergeant major, in place of Weigner,
discharged.
The health of the regiment Is very good for the
time of the year here. We are very deficient in
medical attendance—one of our doctors being sick
and the other way.
Major Berry is the life of the regiment. He is
always playing off his practical jokes at somebody’s
expense. Seuqeant.

I hnve taken the liberty to scad you a short but (aa

Our men, tho last pay day, received one month and
eight day’s pay. The regiment numbers i>GO. The
money curried to Washington by me, at different
times, and sent by express and mail, amounts to
tho snug sum of ten thousand and twenty-seven
and a half dollars. Iu the last month I have
bought 3,&00 postage stamps, 1,200 stamped enve
lopes, and have registered 137 letters for the regi

their different destinations. All the money must

IX TIIB SMITH fIiUCV CASti,
Messrs. King & Baird, of tins city, have just published
In pamphlet form a full report of “ The Trial of William
Smith for Vil’OGY* which took place in the Circuit Court
last month.
We have been bo much struck with the eloquent plead
ing of Hon. Win. D. Kelley, one of the counsel for the
prosection in that remarkable case, that we transfer be
low a portion of Ws masterly argument to out cutumua.
lie commenced with n resume of the more prominent
points in tlic testimony, which were dearly am) explicit
ly set forth, lie then continued:
TllC spectacle now presented is one o£ the most extra
ordinary, aud I think one of the most sublime, ever be
held by man. We are in a court of justice of the United
States, trying a cause Quietly, courteously, and with a
tender regard for the rights of the defendant, at a time
when 900,000 af oup brothers and friends are armed and
on the tented field—and when, as has been said to you,
every mail brings the tidings of the death of some loved
or honored one. We are tryiug a man who comes from
a section of our. own country, in which, to profess a love
for the United States, its government, and its flog, net
only suspends the habeas corpus m the particular £&•&,
but seems to suspend all law, human or divke, curdles
and paralyzes all generous emotions and manly instincts,
and inflicts even upon gentle woman such brutal punish
ments as only barbarous nations apply to hardened male
factors. a ,
And what defence is set up, and how is it received i
It ia that this defendant was aiding the cause
of those who are arrayed in arms against our
brethren; that he was aiding the cause of those who
thiiß punish our people for loyalty to their Government;
that be was nMliig th* OAU3& of tUO3G Who httVfi Stricken
down and dishonored the ling of our country, and made
war upon its institutions and its people. And that de
fence is pressed, and listened to, and weighed, and
strengthened even by presumptions. It is right that it
should bo so. Such Bceneß as tliia will redeem our
generation in history. They prove that the love of law
and order, justice, truth, and right, still dwells in the
hearts of tho American people, and are tho sure pledge
of the ultimate realization of the best hopes of those who
most faith in man’s capacity for self-government.
If the leiter-of-maniue in Question (conceding ihni
there was one,) is e sufficient justification of the crime
charged, the United States government is at art end, and
that which we have so confidently believed to bo endur
ing, perpetual, & tiling to bless mankind while time
Should ROW, to«s P«*sed away and is at an end. If this
be true, our republican institutions have been a delusion
as fleeting as It was resplendent with promise. Let us
see whether lam right in this. Turn with me to a re
cent opinion of bis Honor, Judge Cadwalader, quoted by
my learned brother.
[The portion of the Judge’s decision, In the caso of the
ship General Rartchitt, in which ho reafllruis tlmtThe
State, which compose the Constitutional Union, are not,
with reference to it, either foreign or independent States,”
was here read.]
The doctrine of State sovereignty is broached in this
Cfifefi Mid tll9 light °f a State to secede is argued, and,
with equivocal qualification,'asserted by Uli the counsel.
Whence is it drawn'l What sentence or paragraph of
the Constitution implies it 1 Look through that instru
ment, take it line by line, section by section, article by
article, and say where the most astute of Southern or
Northern st«te«mea find the text or principle upon which
the doctrine of State sovereignty, and the right to sccodo
is based.
The' defendant substantially says, “ I did not commit
piracy, became I was engaged in a higher crime; I did
not commit piracy, because I did not try to steal the pro
perty of EDslislmifeih or Froucbmcni or Spaniards; I only
stole that of American citizens; and I did not do that
entirely for my own advantage, but in part ..that, by ha
rassing and impoverishing my loyal countrymen, I might
help forward the great conspiracy to destroy the Consti
tution which their Honors have sworn to support, and
wiiiuh you 4 fipiitlenefi of the juryi are bound by your
oaths to maintain.”
Free, republican America is the promised land of op
piessed millions toward which they journey when hope
gilds their dreams. The Constitution of the United States
is the pillar of fire by night, and the cloud by day, to
Wtnry, oppresaed) and tonging multitudes; it is the mira
cle of modern times; It stands and will stand in all his
tory so far above and beyond any other State paper or
document that it Is without peer or parallel, or thing
comparative; it is the outgrowth of ages, the pledge of
fiitme peace and prosperity to the world; and it was well
characterized years .ago by our venerable and distin
guished iownsronn, Uoh. Oeorgd M. D9.11/V3, A 3 tllA fit
canopy for a continent. Not want to injure the English
man, the Frenchman, or the Spaniard! Go to the homes
of the poor and oppressed in the British realm, the wide
empire of France, or the kingdom of her Catholic Majes
ty, and you will find the young patriot heart beating at
the mention of klifS fAP-ftff land flf OUPfI. YOU Will llDd
that Amirtca is the land toward which the heart of the
young man leaps, and for which the pining old man
sighs—not for the fertility or beauty of our land, not for
the grandeur of our lakes and rivers, but for the pros
perity. the growing progress and freedom of a multitu
dinous people made up from the oppressed of all l&niU Alld
enjoying the blessings of equal laws.
The defendant did not commit piracy, say lus counsel,
because he was only trying to make a line of custom
houses, and a system of passports, anil a standing army
necessary to murk the boundaries of every little priuci
paiity or great state, kingdom bi 1 £&ipll‘6, tli&t mad OMbl-.
tion may carve out of what is now the territory of the
United -Stales of America! He was only trying to obli
.tcrate the glorious memories and forever dispel the
blessed hopes of tho American people!
In controversion of the arguments of the defendant’s
counsel, ußawle mi tho Constitution” anil tho Comment
taries of Judge Story were cited, as also the following
striking passage from Webster’s works: “Amidst the in
cantations and orgies of nullification, secession, disunion,
and revolution, would be celebrated the funeral rites of
constitutional and republican liberty.”
Tho world is uAt too wide ft field to illustrate the ef*
feels of so great a crime. Where are tho Libarallstfl of
England in the political contests of the day ? “ The
Thunderer” proclains the end of the great Republic,
and the friends of freedom in that land shrink from press
ing forward tho humane movement which lias engaged
their hearts and hopes for years. Again, “ The Thun
derer ” proclaims to all Europe that the experiment of
democratic republicanism is at an end, and Kossuth and
his brave Hungarians accept the fact, and consult as to
who ehall be Kina of Hungary. And again, says “ The
the great experiment is at an end; the
Civil war in America has extinguished the faith of the
world in a democracy, and Garibaldi sinks int ) quietude
and gives up tho hope of an Italian Republic!
Why, you aro asked, convict the defendant, when
hundreds of thousands are armed and in the field against
you ! Thv answer is ? because it has been proven that
ho was guilty of one of the most heinous of indictable of
fences.
Privateering, it is said, lias been recognized by all ci
vilized nations, and I admit it ; but the great uations of
Europe have recently provided by treaty for its abolition,
and onr Government though the last to do 80i hMi I be-
HcYe\ acceded to the proposition.
Why not, asked tlie senior counsel, exchange William
Smith as a prisoner of war, and send him on his parole, to
his sorrowing wife 1 Because he did uot go to his wife
when he might have done so without the taint of felony,
flntf the man in onr whole army, most wanting in
a soldier's attributes, would be overwhelmed with shame
at the thought, that he had obtained his freedom on such
teims. Why not, the changes ring, exchange this man
aud his companions, as prisoners of war, as a certain
commodore and others have been exchanged * In the
first plncoj let me say that no commodore has been ex
changed j ’*nO In the next, tiiat onr government Las not
sanctioned any exchange of prisoners ; and, further, that
while I admit that the manner of signing, and the letter
of the hastily-drawn terms of capitulation at Forts Clark
and Hattoras imply the existence of a Government known
as that the Confederated American States, I challenge
the proof, even through the Rebellion Record , of any
such act on the part of our Government, or that it has, by
any expression or implication, recognized the existence
of a foreign Government within the limits, of the United
States*
But, if the Government were prepared to exchange
prisoners of war, the defendant would not come within
the category. Treat him like a soldier taken on the bat
tle-field ! The men who shot the eloquent and gallant
Baker a few days ago, were, in the open field to contend
with armed mein It was soldier meeting soldier) and
taking the risk of the contest with no golden vision of
prize-money on either side. Not so with the defendant
and his companions. They went to sea, not to meot, but
to skulk from armed vessels, and rob unarmed men, such
as the witnesses we have produced. Not with armed men
and vessels of war w as the conflict they sought, but with
the Fnchantresi, John Welsh, and such other unnrmcdi
but richly laden merchantmen as they might fall in with.
Was this the conduct of soldiers, or felons 7
But again, gay his counsel, he is not a thief and a pi
rate, but a prisoner of war, and in support of tho propo
sition, they ask, <lid lie not give his prisoners asuifi
curacy of food=and did not the ofiieers of tho Albatross
confine him more closely, and treat him more harshly
than he had treated his prisoners !
Yes, he did give his prisoners a fair daily allowance
of the water and stores he had stolen from them, aud he
did not put them in irons, as the United States officers
put him, when they arrested him in the act of piracy;
l/Ut how tins proves him to bo a prisoner of wor, and
not a pirate, or why, upon this showing, our Government
should recognize the Southern, Confederacy, it is some
what difficult to tell.
This wicked and groundless rebellion has been com
pgr?d to the American devolution, and yon are appealed
to, by the memories of our fathers, to pronounce piracy
mi act of patriotism, and acquit the defendant. We
were in the minority at the time of tho Revolution, said
my learned brother Harrison. He was mistaken. He
has not read hittory correctly. Wc were not in the ml
horUy ; wo were tho people of the country.
You, gentlemen of the jury, arc judicially considering
the question of piracy, and the act of the leaders of a
rebellion is set up as a defence. But it has not been
and cannot be shown that a revolution has been con
mmmiated, and the defence fails. The revolution must
have been established; tho now Government must have
maintained itself, been recognized as a member of the
family of nations by the original Government or those of
neutral Powers.
The counsel for the prisoner mail tain that the South
ern Confederacy exists defacto* aud that her act is to he
accepted hill &fld I maintain (and there lies
the whole difference between ni,) that the United States
Government exists, and that the! tiro are incompatible,
by force of that law which prevents the possible occupa
tion of tho same Hpaco by two objects at the same time.
The United States Government extends over the territory
uf the thirty-four States. If it does not, it has ceased to
exist. If it does exist, their proposition is at an end, and
no adequate defence to the indictment has been presented.
The prisoner threw himself into this war In aid of
those who so wantonly waged it, not as a belligerent, but
as u robber and a pirate : he chose the felon’s parr, and
to rob his unarmed countrymen upon tho high seusj
But, says his senior counsel, it will be dangerous to
convict liim, for if you do, lio may be hanged. Well,
what then? Not, it is true, an admonition to look out
for yourselves, your wives, and children; but the decla
ration that his death will be terribly avenged; that for
every man hanged here there will fcfl ten men hmig &
the South; that if this prisoner be convicted and exe
cuted, there will go up to Heaven from Caßtlo Pinckney
a wml that will bo heard even on the banks of the Dela
ware.
On« would rather doubt the evidence of his own
senses, than behove that lie had heard an Americau jury
gravely informed by distinguished counsel, that if they
had the temerity to render a conscientious verdict, and
the law should take its course, their fellow-citizens
would be hung by the tcorc, and the heart of the nation
be wrung by the wail of its suffering children. You
lift VC ntil keen Kworn, gentleman, tv v&erci&9 * sound dis

indignation, but calmly aud conscientiously; and, if
such an administration of tho law of the United States
tilml 1 prOYOfeti ninny and barbarous murder?, let It be Sv \
In God's name, let us know the worst.
Again, gentlemen, if tho possible consequences of your
find,ng are to influence your deliberations, let me sug
gest that such u verdict as in my judgment p is demanded
by the law mid the facts of this case, might possibly pro.
dura effects much less unnguimuy and atrocious than
those suggested I.y the prisoner’s counsel. Pray it not i»e
that among the mercurial people of the South there are
some who have been inflamed against the Governruezit by
the floods of calumny poured upon the heads of the meu
to whom Ihe people have confided its administration for
mi excctrivc term, who would be kindly influenced by
the fact that one of the guiltiest of their misguided com
patriots, taken in Ihe act of a capital crime, had been'
tried with care anil dclibenUimii aud properly convicted
—but not hurried to the gallows*tree or the lump*post;

The prisoner’s counsel havo asked yon to judge his case
without prejudice. In that request we unite most cor
dially, You entered tho box strangers to him, with no
opinion as to bis guilt or innocence, and, if my colleagues
or I Lav© uttered one wordoutiido of tho facts or the
law of this case by which prejudice might bo excited

Board by the Dom'd of Heultl, and application having
bean made to Councils for nn Appropriation to pay tho
same; and,
WAmas, The chairman of tho Committee on Poor
having been informed by the Law Department that, in
the opinion of the City Solicitor, the act of consolidation
repeals that of 1852 (Pamphlet Laws, pp. 172), giving to
th* Board of Health the power to collect from the Guar*
dl&ne of tho Poor any mini not exceeding S 3 per week for
board and maintenance at the City Small-pox llospitAl, of
those persons who may be affected with cutaneous dis
c;iso6, there received for treatment, and who, in the judg-
BIPUt 9f til? Board of Health, are unable to pay tlio
amount so charged against them, in consequence of which
opinion no appropriation has been obtained: therefore,
Resolved, That the Board of Health bo notified of the
above circumstance, and that the bills presented for the
board aud medical attendance of certain parties in tho
City shnall-pox Hospital, lie veturned. Adopted.
The committee having under consideration tho exami
nation of the boilers in the Almshouse received the fol
lowing from the steward:
Bush Hill Iron Works,
Philadelphia, Nov. 6,1861.
Harsuai.l Hrx2sv: Dear Sin: Your note of August
20th requesting one J&mcs Moore to examine tho boilers,
pumps, and pipes in Blocklcy Almshouse, has been at
tended to. lie found that the boilers that were opened
(i. e. ? the main boilers) in the host possible condition,
perfectly clean and water-tight, and, to be sure thft.l tll©y
were not in any way defective or dangerous, they were
tested by hydraulic pressure at 100 pounds te the square
inch. This is, of course, cold pressure, three times the
working pressure of the boilers.
The vast amount of water anil heating pipo were, with
irxvinl exceptions, in £6oJ opd©?, tli© iu l © plftim lmmpa,
used for supplying the main boilers, are not, aud
never were of the best quality. They arc defective iu
construction, and we are convinced that they could not
he made good or bo kept in good order. If you will par
don tho liberty, we would suggest the propriety of apply
ing the Gifi'ard injectors in place of the puu\J>s>. Th©3©
can be obtained at the trifling expense of $75 each. They
obviate the bursting of pipes, and as they work without
motion iu themselves, they will last indefinitely.
Respectfully, MATTHEWS & MOORE.

Mr. Server arose to take action upon tlio depredations
committed upon Potter’B Field. He offered a resolution
that the Farm Committee allow no entrance to the bu
rial ground except to those persons provided with per
mitßi properly signed,
Mr, Dickinson, as a substitute, offered the annexed re
solutions :
Whereof, It is manifestly the duty of the Board to se
cure to the unfortunate persons who may die while un
der its charge the rites of Christian burial, and to extend
to their remains after interment the same care and pro
tection as is given to those who have friends and rela
tions to watch over and guard their last resting places j
And whereas , From the isolated position of the un
guarded graveyard attached to the almshouse, there is no
security against the disinterment of the bodies deposited
therein : be it therefore,
JTcsorvetf, That the Committee on “Farmand Gai-Jen 1 *
be instructed to select a suitable place, and estimate the
cost of erecting thereon a safe and substantial receiving
vault wherein to deposit and keep the remains of those
who die in the almshouse, until removed by their friends
or their graves rendered secure from violation by reason
*F tli© partial decomposition of their budifSi
Resolved, That the committee be requested to report
upon this subject at the next stated meeting of the Board.
Adopted.

mittee of three be appointed to havo prepared and prn
eonled to this Board a rovlgion acid consolidation of the

subject of tho poor laws. Adopted.

informed of an intention to scud back to tho city the in
sane sent from it to the State Asylum at Harrisburg, by
the court, as the institution is too crowded to admit
any farther accession of patient 9. Mr. Erety, there
fore, offered the following:
Resolved, That a committee be appointed to report on
the probable number of insane and epileptic patients
necessary to make provision for in the insane depart
ment of the Philadelphia Hospital, in contemplation of
the insane patients from Philadelphia now* iu the State
Insane Asylum at Harrisburg being returned to Phila
delphia, and, together with the in&wie wm in the Phiia
