As you have other .correspondents in compnty I, which have keptyoor readers duly apprised of alt items of interest of.importance- which have transpired among us since we landed, on. this vitjand, it will .be useless for roe to gubaekovSr ;lbe past four months, in search of sudb matter. {Suffice it to say that it has been four months of the most undisturbed monotony I ever- experi i-enced. ■ , ,t,. ■ It It is already, well known to many of your -readers,-that the detachment ,of the 45th, to which this company belongs, is almost wholly I engaged in picketing, and is. stationed at the | different points adjacent too, and roost exposed An the enemy. Company A, is stationed on the {Graham Plantation, which is the bead quar ters of ibis detachment, and is about livemiles west of Port Wells—company C, at Braddoek’a i Point, Several miles south west —company E, . on a plantation, known as Spanish Wells, two miles south:west—company 1,,0n the Sloney Plantation,.one mile north, and company D, at Beabruok Landing, three miles north east of Grahams. From these company bead quarters, squads, of from sis, to twenty men, are sent to (be different untpusts which have to he guarded. Our pickets are relieved every twenty days;and {he relieving uf the pickets, the arrival of our mails, muster, and pay days, constitute, with but few exceptions, the, only events which have occurred to disturb the ,almost Sabbath quiet which has reigned supreme since we have been -un this: Island. .Company I, sends pickets to ■ three outposts, known here.as upper and lower Pope’s and Buckingham Ferry." The squad now stationed, here, consists of twelve men un der the command of -Corporal IX C, Hoig. This seems Jo. us too small a number for the post, as the night duties are severely felt by thd men, in consequence of losing, from three to five hours rest every night. While at-tbe ferry, we were blear from duty every fourth night, which gave us a von good chance to obtain the sleep and rest necessary to our physical welfare. — We have underwent tju-h a thorough schooling of wakefulness since we cap)? here, that if we ccin get one or two flights of undisturbed sleep ip. a w,eek, we are.very well satisfied, fpr we do not require the amount oh rest we should, if engaged in something that required more daily labor,.for our days are spent in idleness .sod we are among those-that do iheirworke, in dark ness. \Vbelher our deeds are evil or pot, judge .for yourself, but of one fact be assured, we do put choose daikness rather than light, but if our General thinks we cao. serve him and opr .country here, as well or better than elsewhere, we will try to be satisfied, and do our dnty as .becomes, true .soldiers. These islands are peculiarly Adapted to cotton culture.,and \fere extensively planted with that .article, before we came here. Much of the lost year’s crop was yet unpicked when -we came, in consequence .of which a large ainount was wasted by the effects of .the.wpatber upon it.— This was a very Sue article,,known, qs the eea islapd qqtton, and I believe the beet in the yvorld. The .Government, through its. agents, has succeeded in gatberingqults a large amount An this,.and adjacen t islands, amounting in val ue, tP.many thppsand dpllors. They have but just finished' hpuling it froro ihesp.,plantations to the,,Gin, formerly owned .by.thp rebel. Gen eral Drayton, at qrneqr this fort. Besides bps qotton, each planter .generally raised, com en ough to. supply each of his gang with one peck each weelc,-which constituted the principal part of jheir food.. They also raise a few acres-of Sweejt pqtntoes, but these appear to be of, the least yalue of .all .their crops, and ore the least cultivated.. , ... ... .

On the sth of ibis month, about 3 rf’cTock at night, our c}mp was amused and ordered’ to arm, equip', and'ifiount their hnises, with two days’ provisions, htid- be ready at the eijrliofcmdinent to 'march. In a short time, ally ho men that could perform duty were uji and.dressed, with sabres, pistols, and car bines strapped round them—haversacks, con taining provision's, and cahteeha filled with wa ter, ready for the “grand march-" •' These .nec essary preparations they mounted iheir horses qnd fprpred.in line, after whiph-opr Colonel, gave tfie common, cpl.pmn moved forward a quick canter, with n.fear lesS solemnity that Indicated'victory or death'.

There was about 35 men from our company, and the same from' compar ny E, and K, in all about one hundred men, and while on the Iway they were joined hy,de tachmentp frotp lhe third Keptpcky, increasing their force to five hundred men..
