A New Camp.
lly a general order, issued yesterday, the encamprent
of the army of the Potomac was named "Camp Lin
coln," In 1101:10T of the patriot President, whose cventful
Administration is so soon to see the last blow given to
•the rebellion., '1 hie is, perhaps, the grandest encanit-
Molt ever titled by an army—from Ashland to the James
river—thence to YorktoWn—thence to White Rouse, and
thence acmes to Ashland, enclosing a space of live, hun
dred equate miles within its boundaries, and it is the best
appointed and disciplined army over organized since
wars and rebellions began. Camp Winfield Scott was
pitched before Yorktown, and saw it evacuated; Camp
Lincoln will not only witness the fall of Ilichmmtl, but
will be the last grand encampment required to force the
itecedeis back into IDo Union. The name is wall given.
No man should Do honored more than he whoso firmness
and honesty united the whole mass of the country in an
effort to put down the rebellion, and whose coarse, now
that be has been is office for a third of his term, it as just
and as popular as it was when he entered. And immor
tality is given to his name wberi borne by the camp whose
soldiers are so soon to capture Richmond. From Camp
Lincoln I write you these lines, and am as proud that
“Honest Old Abe" gives it a name as if I were already
on the; onward march to the capital.
EVBRYTEING QUIBT
The calmnese of early morning was somewhat disturbed
by the heavy sounds of far-distant guns, and by two
shells rentfionx one of our batteries to discover if a cer
bln suspicions.looking patch of bushes did not mask a
rebel battery. These two
, eheis, however, were !amine
easeful. The distant roportsr..yere evidently front gun
boats, and continued perlApi for an hour. Since morn
leg everything has been exceedingly quiet. Note shell
or rifle shot has been heard in this vicinity, and no move
talents of troops have been made. Everything is in re.
poets—the troops lying in camp, and the general officers
siding around, spying out all aorta of things to scold
about. The whole line of picketers bas lain quiet, with
out either exchangettoi shots or the passage of friendly
compliments. Near Gaines' Mills, a sergeant was put
under arrest yesterday, for holding intercourse with the
enemy, and exchanging newspapers with one of the Se
cession pickets, and of course all his companions have
been exceedingly reserved in conversation with them
since. A few contrabands end prisoners have boon
lorcught in, and the usual number of deserters have colne
over. But these are the daily routine, and are so com
mon, and have so little of interest or romance to them,
that they hardly bear a record.
On the left wing and centre trench digging has become
the order of the day. Brdige-budding on the right is
stopped, and now the establishment of new picket lines,
mainly for the security of eignal stations, is become the
principal Moine... General McCall, with hie rebores
enitY, - are posted in tha nayst.e- n i
anxious to teat h.a.;.• discipline. They will, doubtless,

lam entirely in the dark as t 3 the future. As long a
time as it took to drive the enemy from Yorktown will,
perhaps; intervene before we secure Richmond, and then
the rebels may abandon it and the chase have to be tor
seed across the James river. General McClellan's policy
here le one of excessive caution. Ito moves scaly,
making no brilliant dashes, and allowing no needless ex
posure. Still, all of the troops are confident of victory,
and the lets loss there le in this renowned siege the lees
mourning there will bo ton the country.
A SIGHT PEON TER BALLOOIC
Colonel Lewe's balloon, yesterday, was motioned near
Gaines' Milts, on the right centre of the Federal line
and, within six miles of Richmond. It was in the air
during the whole day, and in the few hours It ascended,
some thirty or forty army officers observed the position
of the enemy's troops from the elevated point of view it
afforded. The balloon is held to tho ground by a strong
cord a thousand li;et in length, and of course ascends to
that distance above the earth. A pulley and tackle ar
rangement, worked by soon below, is the power used to
pull It down; and, being strongly fattened to the earth,
there is bat very little danger of the machine's escape.
The colonel and his assistants very seldom ascend, offi
cers and others, with authority for the ascension, being
Bent up by twos and threes at a time, and, after a few
minutes' stay, hauled down.
When the balloon has ascended at this point to the
end of its tether, a grand view of both armies is un
folded. Within.a circle of two miles in radius the sight
is very perfect ; beyond that the angle of vision beromes
so nearly horizontal that woods, houses, and hills ma
interfere with the view. The landscape has three
marked objects upon it, which are the first to strike the
eye. The Chickabominy, almost beneath one's feet,
bordered by its dark-ereen swamps, rune like a thread
from where it rises on the horizon, away off to the north.
west. to where it blends with woods and hills In the
loutherest. The James , river in front, though distant,
runs in a deep, crooked valley, and beers on its bosom
hundreds of craft that, in the distance, laok like white
specks upon the bine waters. Rich nond covering a
large portion of the western horizon, is, however, the
principal eight. It appears to the balloonist as a con
tuse] modloy'of red, white, and black, and heavy brown
fortifications stretching from the right to the left,
with thick walls .and plentifully sprinkled with
cannon, surround it on all sides. The Oapitol Square
can scarcely be discerned, being too thickly sur
rounded by buildings. The white Capitol, how
ever, is quite compienoug, and, of course, the stets
and bars float over the roof. Three chnrch spires,
eeerningly all in one spot, aro the brightest part of the
town, and catch the eye almost before the observer le
aware he is locking at Richmond. But little else, how
ever, can be distinguished, although, for a general view
of the town, nothing could be better than that Iron, the
balloon. The space between the Chickabominy and the
rectifications around Richmond is almost filled with rebel
camps. A thousand cavalry horses were picketed In one
field, and others were plentifully sprinkled all about,
Wedge tents, used by the officers, and little:dog tents by
the men, shone in every , direction -as the eve's rays
shuck them. Entrenchments end rifle pits lined the
front of their position, though very few guns were
ncourted. Several game of heavy callibre are eprinkled
along these earthworks Bebe) camps, however, are the
most prominent of all the eighty. They shos , in every
direction, and the southern and western hnizm seems
to be their only boundary.
Of our own position, as seen from the hallo ne, I must
ho silent. One thing, however, in the whole view 13 most
remarkable. Right through the centre of the picture
runs a curved belt of dark green and yellow about a mile
wide Not a man, gun, tent or wagon appears nom it.
It is the line between the two armies. Over it, cannon
balls are thrown, and on its surface scouts and pickets
bide from each other, but no military sign is to be seen
upon It. Everywhere else, stretching as far as the eye
can reach, are the thousand and one things incident to
war ; but this broad, quiet, deserted belt of laud, eo
lonely, so sombre, varying only as ft is swamp, er field, or
stream, Hee there so still that it Almost inspires the be
holder. Jupiter's rings or Saturn's belle never wore
a grander sight than this belt of land on which noticing
like tent or gun appears. - J. C.

Historical Reflections. •
In June, 1771, a small number of Revolutionary heroes
cotrenenced to fortify and entrench thoir position on
Blither's Rill, which is only about a mile and a, hall
tom Boston, at that time Sn posseesion of British troops.
They 'A era enabled to complete only a alight shelter from
British cannon, which, on the morning or the 17th, opened
its fire on that little army of Independence to corer and
protect the landing of the British forces. The landing
accomplished, and the city of Charlestown wrapped in
flamer, an engagement immediately ensued on Bunker's
Hill. The British were repulsed and driven back with
Bove , a lON j but' they were veteran soldiers and well
atmcd, and, rallying again and again, the British finally
carried our works at the point of the bayonet.
On that day a sentiment fully armed, of opposition to
England, sprang into • atietence. That sentiment has
carried ns successfully through two wars. It bee sus

During the following yeai, after the battle of Bunker's
11111, the Declaration of Independence was published.
This event took place two hundred and eighty-four years
after the discovery of America by Columbus ; one hun
dred and seventy years from the settlement at James
town Virginia ; one hundred and fifty-six from the eet-
Cement at Plymouth, Mass ; eighty-four years before
the first man was hung under our constitution for politi,
cal acts ; eighty-six years before the enn of the most glo
rious Government in the world was darkened by Sues
sfon, and eighty-seven years before the great impending
battle between the mighty armies of the Government and
the forces of the Rebellion, which must to soon be fought.
The army of the Potomac will not suffer the pride of the
nation to be humbled. nor the illustrious annals of our
history to be tarnished, nor the hopes of the future for one
destiny tobecomo desolate. Let Congress and the politi
cians be rui true to the Constitution and to all the civil

ROWELL CORD ON TIM tEDXLLION
On one or two occasions, recently, flags of truce have
been borne in to and from the enemy for the transaction
of acme minor matters relating to prisoners and clothing.
At one of these meetings Brigadier General ilowell Cobb
wne present, portly, pompone, and communicative as
ever. In comae of the conversation General Cobb said
that, when thie war first broke out, its main anpoort at
the South was derived iron a certain clam, but That the
pride of the South Mid been excited, and that fear . of en
croachment upon the real rights of the people, and tear
of subjugle.ion, bad made the South a perfect unit. He
said there wee now no divielon in the public sentiment;'
that with* them it was a war for independence or
annihilation, and if they could not accrue the ono
they would suffer the other. Ile mold that the
Oonfederate Government had entirely consul ti hope
for foreign intervention ; that they did not expect
it, nod placed 'no reliance upon it whatever; they
hoped soon to be masters of their own eituatiOn, and to
be able to dictate their own'terme to other Governments.
Ho said that hie brother and himself had heretofore cut-
tivated.cotton estates lying Contiguous to cactothe., and
had realized from them an annual income of sixty thou
sand dollars, but that they had not panted a cotton need
this year i their lands were sown with grain; and that
they were nixing all they could to eat, and that this was
generally the case with the planters of the South. Very
little cotton was being rafted. ills most important abat‘e
rant related to the disposition of the rebel army. Gen.
Cobb said that, for himself, he was entirely opposed to
making a stand at Richmond. lie thought the city
should be abandoned, and the entire army withdrawn,
protracting the campaign, without loss on their side,
through the summer and fall; but he had been over
ruled by his superior officers, and that they should de
fend the city to their utmost ability. Such was their de
termination, and we could only enter Richmond by pass
ing through seas of blood. Gon. Cobb male sumo very
unhandsome remarks about President Lincoln, and the
interview terminated.
DENBRAL SIIITH'S DIVISION
It so happened last evening that I was present during
the brigade and regimental drills of General W. P.
Smith's division, and the high encomiums everywhere
partied upon it are fullyin.stified. The eoldiers composing
it are thorough veterans. Before Yorhtown wed at Lee's
Billie, in the advance from there - to White House, and
in the great battle of Williamsburg, they have proved
their title to that perfect confidence which exists in the
army for their valor. The discipline in some of the re
menta composing this division is equal to that of 'the re
'miler army, while their perfection in drill and In the
manual of arms defies competition.
Its able commander, often holding as ha does the key
of our advanced positions, is always thoroughly guarded
and watchful. Ilia pre•ominent ability comists in the
election of ad vantagoins positions, in a keen
diecrinti
nation of the points favOroble for attack and resistance,
in a thorough and retentive memory of where all his
troops ore posted during an engagement, and in that
coolness and precision in giving commands whichadmits
of no question as to their propriety.

Cemt. LINCOLN, Jnne 15, 1562
Long • loved, adored ideas, ail adieu." So sang an
Nnglleh poet, andso have we aimed joined in the strain
—but it is possible for the army of the Potomac to en
joy one Sabbath as a day of rest, even in the face of the
enemy, and to enjoy one grateful nay, beautiful through
cut as a miming without clouds." It revive' the
memory of days that 'teemed forever paned, and revives
a hope that livers may atok to their ordinary ebanuels—
that mud may regain respectable solidity, and thateome
thing like the comforts pertaining to the early summer
seaton may be at joyed by the army; but after all, the
terrible weather we bare experienced sloes leaving Fort
rem Monroe has not been the subject of complaict on
account of any hardship grriiing out of it ; the troops
Lave only been sorry because their grogram hest been
retarded, and the main object of the campaign farther
removed, from its consumination. Now that the army
has vindicated its title to courage and endurance against
all the wrath of the enemy and unpropitious Nature, it is
really boiled that for a while it mar enjoy - the emits of
fortune's favor, and that Nature herself will aid mad
contribute to our euccesa.
The article in the teat Atlantic Monthly, on the sub
ject of the weather, as it relates to military affairs, bee
produced a striking impression in camp. The learning
and research of the article are much admired, but not so
much as the happy impression it makes on this army of
Its tzuthfulnees.
liming the past week the posture of affairs here has not
essentially changed. An attack at any moment has been
and now. is considered imminent. The enemy have
amused themselves by firing us a morning and evening
salute, which we have not bad the gratitude to return,
and the pickets have quite as often raised their hateto each
other across the narrow open field dividing them, as they
have indulged in the questionable practice of shooting.
Some of the enemy's pickets, however. presenting them-
selves as too good marks for the weak respect remaining
in some of our sharp=shooters for human life, have been
embarked on that vast ocean, whose " silent, solemn
shore" we all here seem to stand upon. The pickets on
toe portion of the line, however, are quite familiar, ex
changing papers nearly every morning, and many of the
usual courtesies of everyday life among gentlemen. It
is thought that come of the rebel regiments are losing
considerable of the bitterness they have hitherto"cherish
ed toward us, and that a determination is gaining
ground on their part 'to conduct the war according
to the strictest military ruins, and with reference
to preserving it as much as passible from the barbarities
which .shock alike justice and humanity. The highest
civilization, and tte most gentlemanly conduct; though,
will never make war a beautiful thing. War Is some-
times necessary in fixing the foundations of government,
and in maintaining rightful authority, but it's the "dire
ful sating of woes unnumbered" to private individuals.
A party or rebel cavalry, under command of Fitzhugh
Lee, made a raid day before yesterday on the railroad
sear Tunstall's Station, and between here and the White
Douse. The party fired into a train of cars,"containing
wounded invalid soldiers. They burned two oars loaded
with grain, and captured and destroyed a few wagons.
Several sutlers are also missing, and their goods, They
made an attempt, which failed, to barn one of the short
htidgee on the road. The party came in by the way of
Hanover Court House, did their work quickly, and re
, tired. In firing into tba cars several wounded and iin;
armed soldiers were killed. Ten or twelve will cover the"
fetal loss in killed SD d missing. The if Len of Virginia"
are trout.leveme as ever. . "
This morning the church bells st Richniond wore
tinctiy heard in our camps, so it seems the rebels have
not melted them all for cannon yet. We !Mali probably
ring item two or thrce hours in celebrating the Fourth
of July. During the last weekoto additional designs of
the evacuation of Richmond have been brought to light.
I do not suppose there are any now In this army who
think the enemy will evacuate. All oppearancesiudicate
that a great and decisive battle will be fongbt here. Each
sido is preparing for a mighty contest. Gen. McClellan
will move at the very hour of his readiness, and not till
then. If he should say to the army, soldiers, you will be
quiet for one month, not one single word of diaapprobation
would be heard. Nothing can now shake the confidence
of the army In hie judgment. The meddlers all know that

PHILADELPHIA, MONDAY, JUNE 23, 1862.
Whilst General McClellan is operating surely to save
us the humiliation of the moot insignificant retreat before
Richmond, he has now so invested said city RR to leave
ittle elm for the rebels to do but fight, and fight to the
bitter end. Should they attempt to retreat Smith, Mc-
Clellan can now bead' Them off with an army south of
Petersburg, which he can throw across the James river
in a few hours, under cover of our gunboats. To retreat
to Lynchburg and the mountains would entail starvation
and utter demoralization to their army, and the rebels
would simply wage war for a time as guerillas.
The time is certainly near at hand when the groat
blow in to be struck, and.though we may be appalled at
the immense destruction of life on our side, we shall
march certainly to victory.
During the recent raid of the rebel guerillas neon our
rear above the White Donee, n antler of the 2d Rhode
Island Regiment to said to have been captbred with eight
thousand dollars fn money upon his permit. The rebate
can well afford to give this man a free ticket to and from
Richmond
An army paymaster jumped from lhe railway train,
leaving over twenty.fivo thousand dollars In money in
tho car. Fortunately, the engineer had sense enough to
bring the train in safe to White douse with the money,
and the paymaster arrived just at the nick of time to
take charge or it and disburse it.
TUE STRSCII OF FAIR OARS
One of the most nopleasanifeatwres of our position at
Richmond is the stench which mime from the b - sttle
field of Fair Oaks, around and in which some of our
troops . are encarnpod. The effluvia is of such • strong
character as to sicken oven veterans et times. We shall
never know the real loss of human life at Fair Oaks. The
other. day a bit of over one hundred and fifty dead rebels
wore found in a clomp of woods which bad not been pre-
Titular- examined. So far decayed were these bodies
that our soldiers could not appfoach the wit long
enough to bury them.
METING OUT JUSTICE
The hope that General McClellan will give the credit
due to Casey's division fJr hard fighting is increating.
Brigadier General Nagle° is preparing a sorifull and

A BAD AFFAIR:IN SUFFOLK, VA
Some days since, a lady entered Geieral Yiele's head—
quarters, to obtain from him a pass, to go to Suffolk, to
Ice some friends and re'atives residing there. General
Yiele received her with hie usual politeness, but euddenlY
noticing that she wore the Confederate colors promi
nently, in the shape:of a brooch, mildly suggested that it
would, perhaps, have been in better butte to come to his
ales without such decoration. "I have a right, sfr;to
connote my own Wisheias to what I ellen wear." 't Then,•
inedim," replied tfio . General, "permit me to claim, an
equal right in cleokng with whom I shall convene i"
and the dignified lady bad to withdraw from hie prosanCe:
Subsequently, the proud daughter of Socessia returned to
the General's office without the °Mutate° brooch, and,
mail:tete alight apology . for her icdoco7ons conduct on a
former coca:don, reitereted her request for a pass, which
was promidly filled up and handed to her.
The lady proceeded to Suffolk and, after v6iting her
friends, she very injudiciously walked around among the
provost guard of, national troops, wearing the brooch
above mptioned in a very conspicuous portioli of her
dress. The attention of the soldiers was at OICC at
ft/teed to the emblem, much to the gratification of the
giddy girl. A very polite and gallant officer of the 13th
New 'York aceoeted her at once, and told her it would bo
better for her to remove the brooch out of eight or it
might cause a difficulty but the young lady hooded not
the admonition. Palming along, she was met by a soldier
who told her elle . must not wear the tt stars and bars "
now as it wan nothing now but an emblem of weakness
and evacuation. She said to tto soldier that she would
not remove the brooch for any Yankee hireling, where
npen said soldier snatched the bated brooch from the
girl's bosom and removing the -colors, he- handed the
golden bauble back to its owner. Some citizens ob
serving the act fell upon the soldier, and were belabor
ing him pretty badly, when he drew - hie bayonet from
his scabbard and striking one of the attacking party
several blows he felled him to the earth, and injured him
to badly that It is feared he will not recover. The in
jured man was the silly girl's brother. Yet this is no
lesson for the ladies of Norfolk, who daily insult our sol
diers when they get a chance.

SAD ACCIDENT—PHILADELPHIAN DROWNED.
Last eveniog, when a large number of stevedores had
just finished loading the steamer Thomas Swann at the
Long wharf, one of
. the mcn, named Charles !kb ems, of.
Philadelphia, a member - of the hloyamensiag Ilea% tad
well-known in the lower part of the city, slipped from the
bulwarks of the vessel when jumping to the wharf, and
fell between the steamer and ties dock piles into the water
underneath, striking his head in falling, which probably
rendered him insensible. The steamer was shoved from
tDe wharf instantly, and numerous ropee cast down for the"
unfortunate man to seize. Mr. Andrew Ainsworth, chief
stevedore, and Arr. Xvaa L. Beeler, gallwiti.e plunged
into the water, and, diving at different points, used
herculeaa and praiseworthy efforts -to save Mr.
Myers, but all was in rain, and . the body wits
tot recovered. from the deep until nearly an hour
after the man Lod fallen- info the water. When re
covered, every effort was made to restore life, but without
avail, and the body was prepared for the grave. The
body was placed in a boa, and will leave for Philadelphia
by to-night's boat, in charge of Mr. Beeler, who tried s
hard to rave hie friend's life. Messrs. Ainsworth and
Bider both had their clothes ruined by leaping into the
salt water, and skied their lives, as the tide was ebbing
etrentrly at the time, and but for their great powers of
endurance, and knowledge of the art of awinuning at sea,
mutt have been drowned. .
To day is the last day, under the proclamation of Gal.
Pierbont, for the civil officers in the different cities and
counties under his jurisdiction, to collie fortiard and take
the oath of allegiance, and some trouble was anticipated
to-day in Norfolk, in regard to the matter there, but as
yet evcritl lag is quiet, and no force will be need with
the oflicere by Gen. Tiele to make them "".toe the Mark.".
An election for municipal officers will shortly he hold,
when the ineetlon will be decided peacefnllyand legiti-'
mately . at the ballot•box. To force the municipal effluent
to take the oath of allegiance to our Government, when It'
le known that they are rank Secessionists, would pro
bably dela ive the city of any municipal government at
all, and exasperate many of the citizens, who 'mike upon
every pretext of tide kind to prejudice the people agsinet
the American Government
The worst featnre of the whole ntstter is that profetmed
Union men, who are only so for the sake of political nd
sancement, are continually getting np rows among oniet
citizens, wbo may be said to be "on the fence." Some
or these men get into brawls for the purpose of getting
pertonally Minted, and then presenting themselves to'
General Viele, to show bine and others in authority how
they suffer for the cause of the Union in Norfolk and
Portsmouth, and bow •deserving they are for the post of
collector of the port, or postmaster, inspector, clerk, and
sthot not.
I sin pleased to say that General Vlele comes from a
city where such practices often amount to the vilest
mimes, and that he knows how to treat such mercenary,
brawling men. Wbeu the time comes, be will recom
mend to the President for appointment to office such men
as have been quiet set persevering-in their Union Senti
ments, as well as 'those who have been honest, peace
losing, and forbearing during • the rebellion. Of- such
there are Venty to fill all offices that are now 4 . going
a-begging`, , In and about Norfolk and Portsmouth.
This regiment has been doing provost. guard duty in
Norfolk ever since that city was occupied, and sopoprdar
has the regiment become, that the people, composing the :
more respectable portion of the community, have' re
ivcdeftt:Ovudeat Gen. Dix, through Gen. Viele, to allow
them to remain 'in the city, in preference to any other ye
giment. The fact that the, men or this regiment are
Southerners, and strong 'though inoffensive Union
men, well disciplined, orderly, and commanded by CoL
Andrews, who has soma of the blood of good old Francis
Hopkinson in hie veins, and by other accomptiehed offi-
cers, tbe people have learned to like and respect them.

As will be seen by the date of this letter, Gen. Slough's
Brigade has Moved to this place. On Monday night, se
veral brigades, which were encamped this side of Win
chester, received . ordersto march in the morning. Im
medintely.the camp presented rather an enlivened scene.
Officers ecd men were preparing their articles en as to be
able to move in the morning i while orderlies were gal
loping lure and there, carrylcg orders: At nine o'clock
the following morning (Tuceday) the brigade was on the
match. • About ten minutes before the hour of starting
Gen. Sigel arrived at the headquarters of Goo. Slough,
and, after an interview with the latter general, de
parted for this place, accompanied by his staff, and es
corted by . a equadion of cavalry. Ile was Roon after
joined by Gen. Slough and staff, and the Maryland
Cavalry, and the whole party led the advance.
Notbieg of any.. consequence occurred during the
march, cud n hen the troops arrived here, they were not
much fatigued. Not having a horse, I was obliged to
look out for a place either on an ambulance or baggage
wagon. Through tho Madness of Capt. Crow:use, of one
of the New York batteries, lebtained a seat in ono of the
baggage wagons connected with the battery. Here,
seated on no Indefinite quantity of liavereacks, canteens
dtc., I was obliged to travel at , a remarkably slow rate
with the auto, which, by the way, was unusually hot,
he'emiug on r.s, and partaking of anything but delightful
eensatlonii. The effects of rho war are not to any great
extent visible 'thong the route,.except here and there,
where may be found a field an which some troops had
been encamped.
Tho crops were in line condition, and very promising.
Ml the fencer were standing, but not many persons wore
to be seen, especially men. Oor troops parsed through
Rearnetown, Newtown, and Middletown. The poiple of
all three places were very reserved in their attentions
to our troops, and if they wore obiged to give oar forces
a drop cf water they did it grudgingly.
. As our troops passed through the town, guards were
stationed at every house, and no unnecessary intrusion
wee allowed. The main body arrived at the camping
ground, which is about one mile sonth of. Middletown,
about ti o'clock, having been preceded by Generals Sigel
and Slough, and their respective staffs.
General Sigel stopped at the house of a Mr. Milton

occasion, he was appointed a brigadier general, and

Immediately waived the command of the second brigade
of Sigel's division. If there is any Lard fighting to be done,
Gexeral Slough is just the man to do it, and if his own
mend stands by him, of which I have not the least doubt,
he sill achieve a splendid victory.
The 109th and 111th Pennsylvania Regiments are en
cbmptd near this place, and they aro in fine condition
and eager to meet the foe.
As our forces were marching through Newtown, they
espied' a man connting our troops. Flo was immediately
tweeted and brought to this place. His naafi) is Groves,

Before leaving Winchester, I woe the witness of one
of thistrengest powers of military discipline that I have

FROM THE ARMY OF THE WEST:
The Loyalty of East Tennessee:
[Special Correspondence of the Prose.]
IVA SHTILLE, Tenn., Jane 16,1862
Before this reaches you, you will, doubtless, have re
ceived information of the ommpation, by the Fedora,
fortes, of some important points In East Tennessee ; the
"evacuation of Cuinberland Gap, the taking of Chatta
nooga, and the possession of the railroads in that division
of the Slate.
The day of deliverance for East Tennessee is at hand.
-Union refugees from there are preparing to return, while
&cession opprestairs are mating ready for a hasty, but
general exodus, The latter feel and know that terrible
will be the reckoning, if they have to meet the men
whom they have banished, the men whose property they
have "sequestered," under their acts
. of " sequeetra-,
tion."
SEQUESTRATION OF THE PROPERTY OF. LOYALISTS.
Ey the way, I Lava never seen any notice, by the
Union papers,,of the act of sequestration passed by the
rebel Congress, and, therefore, may be permitted to di
gress eo far as to mention some of its features. The first
difficulty that presented itself to the minds of the sipient
legislators, was the selection of a wordiutfOle.l. -••••••••7-
a general, idea of theirpursicie. - If would not he con,
eistent for them Wale a word which they bad so long de
nounced, to wit : confiscation. They had harped so long
upon confiscation by the Federal Government—they had
instated so strenuously that it was a palpable violation of
the Constitution of the United States, and boasted so
loudly that the Constitution of the Confederate
Slates of America" was a corrected, revised, im
proved, and enlarged edition of the Constitution
of the United States, that they • were compelled
to respect the word confiscate. Solemn coun
cil of political philologists came to their relief with
the joyful information that while it' was true they
could not confiscate," because of Its
ty, yet there was pot a syllable In the Con
stitution against "sequestration,"- and of consequence,
an act of " sequestration ",should be passed. No sooner
said than done. It passed both houses without debate,
nem. con., and immediately received Executive sanction.
Let us see what it did. The position was, the "Con
. federate States" have seceded. Every person residing
in a non-seceding State is an " alien enemy," fifes
facto. The South is united, end every person residing
In the South failing to unite in the unity is, per se, an
alien enemy. Such persons must leave the South, and a
proclamation was issued accordingly. The .property of
alien (menden, real persona', and mixed, lands, tene
ments, and bereditemente, goods, chattels, books, notes,
accounts, and other evidences of debt, and chosen in
action, must . be "sequestered." By this 'Means, they
got all the property hero of every one unfavorable to
distmion. They made all Southern merchants, under
garnishment, on oath declare tbo amount of their in
debtedness to Northern Merchants, and rendered judg
ment against them and in favor of the Confederate
Statpr for the amount, and required the same to be paid
into the treasury. , Thus they created a war fund.
ALIEN ENNIIIISS
In Best Tennessee there were so many "alien enemies" .
that "sequestration" worked beautifully.' The strong
men and delicate female, tremulous old age d and lisping
infancy, all became the helpleas victims of sequestration.
But now " the Israelites are returning to Canaan,"
and with them they bear the " ark of the covenant,"
and wee to the " Osnaanites" who have held their pa
ternal land, long mouth fur the cupof 'their iniquity to
be filled. Retributive justice has been slow but sure,
eked now they must answer for the property they have de
stroyed, the lives they bays sacrificed, the prisons thei
have peopled, the scaffolds they have erected, the homes
they !have vacated, the firesides they have desolated.
The avenues for the munitions of war are being opened
in Etat Tennoesee, and "ten thousand" strong, brace
mountaineers are to Le united to eve thousand Biddle
Tenneseeans, true and loyal, under the generalship of a

- SECESSIONISTS DISIMARTENE.I)
Our flocemlonists are greatly discouraged. England
and Prance "won't propose;" Beauregard would re
treat; Memphis would surrender; Chattanooga " would'ut
hold out ;" the Jack Morgans will ran ; the ." Demo
cratic demonstration" in the Nutt' does not succeed,
and the North will. not .divide, and .the Administration
will be sustained ;• the wine, prudent, pacific policy of
Osvernor.Johnson prevents complaint. What is to be
done 1 Can they not temporize 1 Can they not cement-
Cen they not make a sort of poiiiicai armistice 1
• Can they not amine a kind of independent, neutral
poel
'tlon 3 Can they not bo neither for nor against the Union
anti) a better opportunity occurs for resistance end die=
raption 3 Some vague, indefinite notions of- the kind
seem now to- be "the flattering unction tbey lay to their
souls." But nothing short of a renewed, consistent alio
"glance;it complete reiteration 'of. the Union, willnatisfy
he loyal men of Tonneesee. W. F.
