The lt;giment was under command of Col. Richardson. Our Captain was the officer of the day on Saturday, and the officers of the “Second” were justly gratefuL to him; and gave him -'much praise for the manber in which he conducted affaire. Cotfapknies are constantly arriving, ; and yet there is‘a tedious monotony abont camp life, which cfinnut help but give us lonely hours.— Occasionally, however, it is relieved by a fight,- a guuvdlhouse rowi or the "drumbiing ont”of an unworthy Soldier. ■ This last was performed on a soldier who thought that he needed a cer tain revolver, and knife, more than the owner did. Hie accordingly took them,' with! a small sum of jnoney, and was drummed outof camp. His hands were tied behind him, and (hevtord “Thief, Y in large' capitals, was pinned to his crip, and that of “Pickpocket” to his breast.— He wa'simarched out on the points of bayonets. ■ About the best looking, and most intelligent company on the' ground, (excepting the three Tioga Companies, of course) is that of (be j We then came down to Simon Wilson’s and Raftmari’s Guards, (Cupt.

Col. Kane is rapidly loosing the popularity he sustained at one time here.— He is.now deemed by many.to be anything but the cpol.and considerate man-who ought, to com tro! a regiment. That he is tyrannical.sfend thoughtless, I have not a doubt, and he has of feredauji insult to the intelligence of the officers of the com panics which were to form hie rego ment,..not to be quickly forgotten, or overlooked. As I understand, it, he requested the officers of the ten.icompanies to unite in soliciting a’ man, whose name he refused to mention, to accept the office of Lieyt. Colonel I The’ officers of ourconjpany stoutly refused io,yield their in dependence at the request of Col. Kane,“or any otb|;r (nan,” and! presume the o’ther Tioga officers did the same, or.eigned the.letter of in- vitation-with a proviso. The consequence-is, that much indignation is felt in our company, and unless matters are righted, you need no'J be surprised if our company at last, should go jfnto some other regiment. ■.

All the papers have been full, for months, of marvelllms accounts of the coal oil discoveries in Peniisylvarnin and elsewhere; but the Mo nongahela (Pa.) Republican gets off by far the best burlesque on the exaggerations of the oil reports J which we have seen. .It is as follows: OIL UPON PIGEON -CHEEK —A DAT’s JOCRNET— WHAT WE SAW, AND HOW WE SAW IT. The tjil feyer has taken such fresh hold upon so many of our friends up the creek, and such wonderful; stories are daily brought down to town, that, anxious to derelope their truth, we ordered a horse and baggy, and started fur -the .‘•theater of excitement," on a prospecting four, early liist Monday. Taking the valley of Pig eon Crdek, we first came to the old salt well nt Ya'nvoprhis’ mill. There we foundSnpcrinten dent Caldwell and his assistants splashing up to their knees in a fine article of oil, worth thirty-seven cents per gallon. They say this oil is \Jery good,' and they could make a very good liying at it, but as Mott Appleton has raised the prij:e of barrels, they can’t afibrdtto save it ■this year. Wfe understand that Mr. Vanvoor bis offers to lease them ten acres of»ground to ral-fi pumpkins on : the seed was brought from Califortda by'llud Williams, whosays they will grow large eno'ngh to hold five barrels, it is in tended i to grow these enormous pumpkins—bin ding them With h'bkory poles and bracing them inaide’Vvith oak saplings, to keep them : frdui warping or splitting. ' ... At Blythe’s, weftfound William, Jim and John at work, and they were having firglrato lock.— Eight-feet frpm"the'surface, struck a vein of-first quality Cincinnati lard,-Worth at the ; mine fourteen cents a pound. ThcJ have takpn out twenty-two barrels a 1 day: fob four weeks } are satisfied ; do’nt want to sell. . At Colvin’s we found ali well, and times pros perous. Twenty;two feet under the ground they struck a vein of wintergreeh; hair oil,' Which yielded well. They also fouiid a few pockets of pomatum, and a thin vein of mpstadhe cosmet ic ; not profitable to work, though some of the girls in the neighborhood have,, preserved some fine specimens of crjatalized pomatum in quart?. Are short of barrels—a fine chance fur-.a'good cooper. At Reed's mill, the' principal find has been tallow. It is found at the depth- of 2,000 feet, mixedwith iriica, brown stone and white mar bla. the process of melting tallow is interes ting, but we havent time to describe it. There is generally about seventy-three per cent, of! pure, tallow. i At Snyder’s tan-yard" they are putting down ; a well which promises .finely, A little suet is ! found occasionally in thin deposits, and some fine specimens of whale hluber and red precip itate ointment have been discovered-herb. 11. Fry is working a.fine rein of fresh butter. This valuable mineral is found in great quanti ties in combination with lard rock, dripping stone, and red hair granite; it is washed with' a cradle and long , tom,'and in some instances worked with n quart* erushof arid slujee stones,- At Lander Beezell’a we found them. busy in boring a well that gave better appearance than any one on the creek—and it was whispered around that the boys had surface indications of sausagii meat, with strong hopes of a thick lay er of Yanderrtfark’s patent -fence. . They don’t want to sell.':. ■ . .. At '\VbiterowVblaeksn)Uh sbopwas a great crowd collected to hear Josiah Taylor tell about the progress of the well.

THE BEITISH FLAG HUMBLED, One of the first consequences to British mer chants, of their government's hasty recognition of our mntineers as “ belligerents,” will be the detention and search of British ships in every sea where Davis can find rascals to take his let ters of marque, Our mutineers have lio navy. They have neither sailors, ships, nor ship build ers. They have no money tb bhy ships, and no ports from which to sail them. If the British government had wisely contented-itself with looking on at our struggle, and-watching only fur the.final result, which it mightfairljraccept and take advantage of, Davis would not, to-day, be able to send even a jingle privateer "to prey on our commerce and annoy that of Great Brit ian. The.half-dozen vesselsthe mntineers have hitherto stolen were able only lo; attack oyster boats and small coasters, and capture—at the mouth of the Mississippi—ships which were already bou'.KJ to Now Orleans, and whose car goes are in pll probability owned entirely in the South. : The blockade has stopped even these petty depredations. The privateers whose acts'the British govern ment has hastily bound itself to respect will be manned by the cut-throats and rasals of all na tions, snob ns gather about the docks of every great'shipping port aridlook out for whatever Mercury, the god of thieves, may throw in their way. It is these wretches, who are not lacking either in energy nr greed, and who are, little bouhd by considerations of justice, to' whom England's harbors are to he a refuge, ap'd who will chase, and board and overhaul every mer chant ship which flies the British flag— cause England’s fuplish statesmen, have gran ted thorn “ belligerent rights.” The Emperor Sapoloon, has not walked into this trap. lie intends that his flag shall be respected. lie knew, what Lord John Russell ought, tu have remembered, that it is much easier to let loose privateers than to call them in; and that in our struggle it was only the : rebels who would use this long abhorred meth od of warfare. ,iia knew that it depended on European nations .to decide whether, this peat ■ shquid be let loose upon the world’s commerce; :? and ho has hot given hts consent.

Sir; Allow mo yonr journal to makea few remarks upon-the-complications of the United- States of America, which, I am surprised to find, are so little understood this side of the At* lantic. . ■ . ,' 1. “ What are weftyhling fort” ■ “We, tba people of the. United States of America" (to use. the language of our Constitution), are fighting to maintain our nationality, and the-principle* of liberty upon-which it-was founded—that na*. tionalil-y which,Great Britain has pledged her* self, both by past comity and the sacred obliga tions of treaty to respect; those great princi ples of liberty, that all power is deprived from the consent of the governed ; trial by jury, free dom of speech.and the press; that “ without late there is,no liberty''—which we inherited from Great Britain herself* and-wbicb, having been found to lie at, the base of-all progress and civilization, we desire to.perpetpate for our selves and the future of all the' nations. The so-called ". Confederate States of America” rebel against us —against our nationality, and against all the principles ol its structure. Citizens of the. United States—of the one Government (not of Confederate States, as they would have the world believe—but of “us the people,”) they I propose, not by common legal: consent, but by arms, to sever onr nation into separate indepen [ deneies. Claiming to ■“.-be let alone," they con-. . spire against us v seize by force our forts, and arms ; appropriate to tbemselvespurmiiit*, • moneys, and vessels.at seacapture ocr armies, l and threaten even the.captal at Washington ! The word “ secession” is used to coyer up treason and delude the nations.' They stand to us in the relation of one “ people,” the idea, of “ State sovereignty" is utterly delusive. — Wo gave up the-.ofd ” Confederation” to avpid just such complications as have nowaccnred.r— The States are by our Constitution deprived of all the rights of independent sovereigns, and the National Government acta not through State organizations,- but directly upon the citi zens bribe State themselves —to thathighest of power, the right of life and death. The . States cannot beep an army, or navy, or repel' in'va* , when necessity will not allow time,' fof national action ; can make no treaty, nor coin money, nor exercise any of the first great essential powers of “ sovereignty.” In a word, ' they can no more “■ secede” from the Union than Scotland' or Ireland can secede froni ' England. The professed friends of the independence of ', nations and"popular rights, they have not only _ overthrown the Constitution of the United : States,- hut’the Constitution of the Confeder ate States” themselves, refusing in every- cos's , to-refer,their new usurpations to the-votes -of. the people, thus making themselves doubly trai-; tors to both the States and the- nation! , ’The despotic rulers oyer 4,000,000.0 f enslaved Afri cans, they presume te extend over us, the white . races, of all nations, the same despotsm, by igr -noring the! political rights of all but their own (class, by .restrictions npon the popular fran chise, by the suppression of. the. freedom of speech, and of the press, by the terrorism ,of “ Lynch law,” or tyrannical enactments, backed by standing armies, tb-crusb out the indepen dence of thought, the-ineradicable-instincts of, our world-wide humanity,—with the atriocious dogma that negro slavery is the only basis of > real conservatism and progressive civilization, and'thaV the.true solution-of the contest of all time between labor and capital is that capitaf should own the laborer, whether white or black. . The success of such demandarwould send the tide of barbarism not only over the, millions of the New World and the isles.of.the Western ‘ oceans, but roll it bai k over England and eman cipated Europe, and blot out from histdrythis, the greatest gilbry of our times. ■ I- 2. “ But aa|j|j)on subdue the revolted States ?” Qf course we tain, The whole seven revolted States (2,173,000) have not ns much white pop ulation as the single State of New York (3,851,* 563) by 1,500,000 people. If all the Slaves States:were to-mnke common Jeause, they have - only S.QOT.SM whites with 4,000.000 slaves, - while the Union has about 20,000,000 of homo geneous people, as powerful in peace and war us the world lias seen. Intelligent, hardy, and “ many sided,” their late-apparent lethargy and weaknes.s was the self-possession of -eotir clous strength. When they had made up their minds that firce was necessary, they moved up on Washington with sneh-speed,-numbers, and steadiness as is not surpassed in history. Wq have the iponey (at a lower rate of Interest than , ever before), the men, and the.command of the sens, and the internal waters. We can block) ade them by sea, and invade them by land, and close up the rebslion in a single -year, if , ; we are “ let alone For the population of the Slave States is divided perhaps equally for and against the Union, the loyal citizens being for tbe time overawed by the organized conspiracy of the traitors, while the North is united to a man, the late,allies of the South, the Democrat la party, being now more earnestfor fbe subjuga tion of the,rebels than the Republicans. 3. “But canyon govern a ‘ subjugated people and reconstruct—the fJuion-V’ ■Wo do not, pro pose to “subjugate' the, revolted States—we propose to put down simply the rebel f citizens. We go to the rescue of the loyal Unionists of [ all the States. Wo carry safety, and peace, and liberty to the Uni.m-loving people of the Sooth, who will <-f themselves (the tyranny over thrown) send back their representatives to Con gress, and the Union will be “ reconstructed” without a change of a letter in. the Constitution of. the United- States. Did England subjugate Ireland and Scotland? . Are" the united, king- , doms Jfs homogeneous than of old, before the ’ wars (against rebellion ?. So will the United Statesiriaa from the. smoke of Rattle with re* newedstabllityand power.
