Pros* the 45,(h Fetmsylvaala -Bestauent.
Brook's Station! Va;, Aug. 9,1862;
Friend Agitator. —Before tin's reaches you,
your readers will have learned that the 45th has
left its encampment on the 1 Jajnes’ River, and
approached a little nearer to the scene of .strife,
where two mighty armies arc preparing to meet
in mortal combat to decide the fate of a nation.
On the evening of the first Inst., our regi
ment passed in review before General Stevens.
His opinion of the men as to material and dis
cipline, was good; bet said the arms we had
(Harpers’ Ferry Muskets) Were not fit to go in
to battle, hence the reason we are stationed here
instead of taking part in the impending con
flict. •
Monday morning, August 4tb, we niarohed
to the wharf, at Newport News. After the
usual delay we embarked on the Steamer Elm
City, a large and spaoious boat; and so far ns
the comfort of passengers' and soldiers is con
cerned, is equal to any I have seen. Among
her passengers were General Stevens and staff.
After passing Old Point Comfort, we steamed
up the Chesapeake. Early on the sth, we ar
rived at the mouth of Aquia Creek, where wo
lay at anchor until 6 o’clock p. m., when ,wo
landed.
Since the Yankees have had possession of
this important point, a splendid dock has been
built upon the ruins of the one destroyed by
the retreating enemy. It is accessnble through
a narrow channel to Steamers of considerable
draught, and is qonnected to Fredericksburg
by Rail Road. About a dozen small buildings
have been erected on tbo shore, amongj-sdiich
can be seen a commissary depot, eating sSloon,
ki., &,?.
On the morning after we landed, we took the
cars—an old dilapidated train—and after riding
about three miles, we stopped at our present
station, where we formed our camp. Colonel
Welsh’s head quarters are at the landing.—
companies I and K, are with him. Lieut. Col.
Beaver, with the remainder of the regiment, is
at this place. Our business is to guard that
part of the Rail Road, included between Aquia
Landing, and Potomac Creek, a distance of
aboufTrvajuiles. At this place is a beautiful
farm bouse whiph the officers occupy—arid also
a gristmill. The' general appearance of the
place, plainly testifies that it has once been the
abode of luxury and happiness. Keen, indeed,
must have been the anguish of its owner, when
he left it. It is said, he died of grief at the
prospect.
The country in this vicinity bears the same
mark of desolation which characterizes the
soil of the ii.vided and rebellious South. The
surface is inclined to bo hilly, but not moun
tainous, or difficult of cultivation. Little or
iiuthimr is being raised along the Rail Road;
in fact, nobody nas been left to cultivate the
soil, but a few old men and children, and they
earn a scanty subsistence by peddling apples,
pears, milk,Ac.. to the soldiers. Troops are
pouring into Fredericksburg as fast as the ears
can carry them from either direction—and oc
casionally the loud roar of Uistantccannon can
bo heard, and everything predicts\lhat some
thing of importance is in progressyTJen. Burn
side was at Aquia Landing, on the sth. Gen.
Stevens joined him at that place.
You, of course, have heard that Captain
Nelson Whitney and Lieut. John J. Reese have
resigned and gone’home. They did not leave
their company because they Were afraid to meet
the chances of war, or were tired of a soldier’s
life, but they did it in defense of their rights
which had so long been disregarded by those
who will, I trust, have to answer for the doss of
their services when the country needed them
most. The Captain bad some enemies, but the
majority of the company have
snns for calling him a true friend. As for
Lieut. Reese, he was the idol of his company,
plain, hold and unassuming, he was a true
soldier, in the bloom of bia-profession, and Co.
0 lost its host friend and protector when John
J. Reese resigned his commission. Our Com
pany is now under the command of Lieut. Sam
uel Haynes. Setgt. R. 0. Richards is acting
as our 2d Lieutenant.
Rut five Captains remain in tbo whole regi
ment. Major Kitbourne has resigned, and J,
1. Curtin of Co. A, is acting in his stead.—
Captain Haynes and several non-commissioned
officers are home recruiting. The weather at
present is fine and pleasant. The Tioga boys
are mostly in good health and spirits, and we
hope to he able to contribute our,mite towards
winding up this unholy and unnatual conflict
which has already filled our land with sorrow,
aid so many mothers and wjdows hearts to
bleed ft mu wounds which no halm on earth
can ever heal. Charleston Ranger.
Slavery and the Government. —The posi
li in of the Administration on the subject of
slavery cannot be misunderstood by any‘who
honestly desire to arrive at the truth. The
laws of Congress will be faithfully carrieiLout;
qolored regiments will not he accepted jiffectly
bv the government. Mr. Lincoln told the West
ern deputation so a fortnight ago, though at
temps have since been made to represent the
matter in a different light. But Mr. Lincoln
is very cautious not to commit himself in the
future. Those who know him beet have no
doubt about his intentions, and that if. it be
comes necessary ho will crush slavery with the
'rebellion. He believes that the first thing to
be done is to'overcome the great. Rebel armies
in\ the field. If the Rebel leaders then suc
cuml, slavery lo the states will not bo touched
except so far as the legislation of Congress
will affect it. But if, after having been fairly
beaten in battle—after having been driven from
the strong strategic points, the Rebels persist
in their rebellion, then the President will make
nee of slavery to utterly 'crash them. I fully
believe this to he bis position upon the subject.
It is neither so strung and radical a position as
some journals ascribe to him, nor. so •' con
servative” and pro-slavery a position as other
journals persist in asserting that be occupies,

Republican Gontrehtion, Friday, Ang. 22
General Election, Tuesday, October 14.
ggy* Tioga County claims the Banner once
more. The first company at Camp Curtin, for
three years or the tear under the last call, was
Captain Sofield’a from this Borough.
ggy* Now is-the Time. —After Friday next
the payment of i bounties by the Government
ceases entirely, and on the Ist day of Septem
ber drafting will commence. These are facts
worthy of note. '
jgy The St. Louis Democrat of thelst says :
“ The Colon as it was, and the Constitution as
it is.”—lt is a singular fact (which may be
proved by a very little observation) that the
class of persons in whose months this expres
sion is most frequently to be found were origi
nally sympthizers with secession, or at best
conditional Union men. And the expression is
almost invariab|y quoted,.not to condemn and
rebuke those who are in arms against the gov
ernment, endeavoring to destroy it; bat against
those who are endeavoring to put down the re
bellion.
We print this week from the Lowell
(Mass.) Courier a letter written by J. Emery,
Esq., of Borough, to bis brother, describing the
escape of his two daughters, Mary and Mar
tha, from Seoeshdom.' The letter was not writ
ten for publication, but is none the less inter
esting on that account. All who know these
ladies will read, the letter with profaned inter
est. It confirms what we knew before, that
these Soulhern 'people have suffered privations
and have made {sacrifices to preserve slavery,
tenfold more than we have yet suffered to pre
serve freedom. Let us learn a lesson of endu
rance from our enemies.-
ggy Certain Democratic and semi-secession
papers persist in affirming that the emancipa
tion of the slaves of rebels strengthens the
chuse of rebellion, whereupon the Tribune pro
poses thus to test the point: .
If there he a single person who honestly
doubts that an open, bold, vigorous, defiant
CtiJUiivipxttfujf nuuld loutl tu efciwugttlcce
and save the Union, let him test the point by
an iofatliahle ordeal. He can hardly fail to
know some one who sympathizes, more or less
thoroughly, with the rebels. Let him inquire
and ascertain whether this sympathizer with
red-handed treason favors an emancipation pol
icy and wishes; to see it adopted. If it is cal
culated to strengthen the rebellion, he will
want it adopted ; if not, not. Reader 1 if you
have a shadow! of doubt in tha premises, be
good enough tq apply the touchstone!
THE WAB NEWS.
—The placid confidence in the faithfulness
of their slavers,i which the Rebels lose no oppor
tunity of impressing upon our minds, is a
transparent falsehood ; else why did the Con
federate Government some time since decree
that every negro found with arms in his hands
should he immediately shot. All black men
accompanying the Union army who are taken
prisoners are a! once sold into Slavery. Noth
ing .but the fear of jjie North prevents them
from selling white prisoners also,
—Berlah Magoffin, the traitor Governor of
Kentucky, baa resigned, and so has bis sympa
thizer, John E. Fiske, the President of the
State SenatV. James F. Robinson, a thorough
Union man, has been chosen in Fiske’s place,
and is ex ufficip Governor until the next elec
tion. Magoffijo’s President of the Military
Board, John 5. Temple, has also resigned.—
Magoffin ought to be put under arrest, as he
w-ill otherwise very soon turn up as a Rebel
General. -
—Col. Corcpran, Col. Wilcox, and many
other Union officers of all grades, are at last
released, and fore in Washington to-day. A
meeting was held in New York yesterday, to
make preparations for the reception of Col.
Corcoran, and,a Committee has gone to meet
him at Washington.
—The latest advices from Gen. Sigel’s and
Gen. Pope’s headquarters indicate that the
Rebels are disposed to resist the passage of the
Rapidan, and pre heavily re-enforcing Jackson,
the main body of whose army is between Or
ange Court-House and Gordonsville. But the
stories are so conflicting and contradictory that
but little reliance can be placed upon them.
—Morgan the land pirate, is said to have
made aaother'jforay into Gallatin, Tenn., burn

The boys are, at present, enjoying, the best
of health and spirits, wigi the exception of
Nathan Palmer, who is suffering' from a severe
lameness just below his knee, the occasion of
which, he says is as strange as iit is painful—
be thinks of coming bo'me soon, providing he
gets no better. They all seem to be frantic
withyoy-to think that they have taken the oath,
which gives them the privilege of helping to
wipe out this damning treason that has sent
many a darling son, brother, father and hus
band, to thoir last resting place, tune martyrs for
their liberty and their country ; and scattered
desolation throughout tbe once | peaceful and
happy homes of the North.
The camp is full of excitement at present, in
consequence of the poisoning of four men this
morning, by eating apples, bought of apple
wooien who have heretofore infested oar camp

now are to destroy the contents of all provision

colored specimen of a contraband was just now
mobbed out, be had been bold 1 enough to set
'the camp authorities at defiance; and came in
peddling cakes and pies in a covered wagon
when he was attacked by the mob and before
his niggersbip could escape, his carriage was
about turn in pieces and be barely escaped with
his life. When the boys were isworn in this

they wore three years men ? When answered
in the affirmative, he said, “ I ath glud to hear
it, because you have showed ydur patriotism
by enlisting for that length of time, and you
will be discharged by the time the nine months
men are.”
Our camp was visited by General Wool and
staff, last Wednesday. He assired the men
that they would not be needed long ; he is a fine
looking old gentleman and was received' with
cheers in all directions. The camp now con
tains about 25,000 men, most of whom are for
nine months. Regiments are going oot every

although we are going to leave them, our best

Before I am done I wish to sajy a few words
to those young men who could notjeave op ac

if you are not, burry up; get your sisters to

your help, the sooner you comts the belter it

this accursed rebellion end, so that they can
get home to .their loved ones, while youi are

Thfey have no more claims on their Government,
than those that are waiting at ildme, satisfied if
they can bribe others to go for the sake of a

from being drafted. Men this is no time
to wait; step forward while the iron is hot
and help to raise an army which alone will
strike terror into the very root of secession.
Rally, men, rally 1 one good, earnest straggle,
