I3tpaortso.—We are pleased to learn that
Mr. Samuel Wireman, of the Cameron Guards,
who was wounded by the accideotal discharge
of a musket at Camp Scott, some weeks ago, is
gradually improving, and will soon be In a
condition to rejoin his company.
Coasscrto.N.—ln our report of the assault and
battery case between Mary Kane and Mary
Faley, an error accidentally occurred. The
former, and not the latter, was bound over to
appear at the next Court. When the trial
takes place the affair will be fully ventilated
and sums interesting developments made.
ANOTHZIL WILD CAT COMPANY, from Warren
county, under command of Captain Roy Stone,
arrived here yesterday morning, and proceeded
to Camp Curtin. They are a splendid looking
hotly of men, substantially equipped, and armed
with rifles which they know how to use skill
fully and effectively. Captain Stone and his
company are the right kind of men to make
good soldiers, and will distinguish themselves
whenever opportunity occurs. We are informed
that they have been accepted and placed in Col.
Rube's wild cat regiment.
ii4VELOCKS Iva OQB Elotnums.—The warm
bUJ.,./1 is rapidly approaching, and it is im
p a Lint that our volunteers In the field be pro
vidt d with Havelock cap coverings. The la
dies aro willing to engage In their manufac
ture at once, if supplied with material. The
Lost is a mere trifle when willing hands are
I,:ady to do the work. One yard of linen, cost
lug tbirty-one cents, will cut three cap coy ers.
Either a light gray or brown Holland is the best •
KLEP Coox.—We cannot afford to live in a
eonslaut whirl of excitement. The nerves
we,tr out. To a certain extent this matter is
under personal control. The war is too icing,
ana is to be attended by too many startling
events, to make it safe to surrender ourselves to
excit,ment every moment. Do not trust any
thing to street rumors. Enter not into heated
di , cu6bions. Have faith in the government,
and do not get impatient at seeming delays.—
We have a government and a military chief
that understand themselves. Sleep all you
coo. Keep good-natured, sober, earnest and
cool.
A QUIET SABDATZ.—Our city was usually
quiet yesterday, notwithstanding the large
number of soldiers encamped here. Few if
any drunken men exhibited themselves on the
streets, and no scenes of riot or disorder oc
curred. Altogether our city wore its nsual
Sunday aspect, and the various temples of
worship were all largely attended. There was
a marked contrast between yesterday and pre
viosi Sabbaths, and we note the fact as one
highly creditable to the officers and soldiers
stationed in our midst. The prompt and effect
ve suppression of the Sunday liquor traffic by
the city authorities did much towards bringing
about this gratifying state of affairs.
How FARMERS OM Slays Turn Cowerni.—
A time of war is generally a time of scarcity of
food. Where many men are drawn away from
producing grain and roots, and become only
consumers, there is great danger that the sup
ply will not be equal to the demand. To ob
viate this, let every patriotic farmer add to the
extent of the land he contemplates cultivating,
at least one acre, to supply food for some poor
soldier's wi ld and children, who can produce
none. We do not mean that the farmer shall
give away the products of that acre, but only
that he shall plant it to secure the supply. As
a timely necessary precaution, we would beg
t. , very farmer to plant at least one additional
acre of corn, half an acre of potatoes; and a
few more beans and roots, and it will supply
the lack of those who can only consume, and
guard us against the fear of shortness of bread.
Farmers, in the name of humanity remember
the danger, and act promptly. Now is the
time. Plant as a defence against scarcity of
food. History will record the wise act, and the
Clod of harvests will reward you.

SCENE 9 IN CANN LlP 4.. Provision Riot at Camp
Wayne.—We print below an extract from a pri
vate letter written by a volunteer at Camp
Wayne. The scenes so graphically described
are much to be deplored, but not half so much
as that the gallant soldiers of the old Keystone
have been driven to insubordination and vio
lence to protect themselves against the impost
ti on aof a dishonest commissariat. We are glad
to learn that since the disturbance occurred
there has been a decided improvement In the
quantity and quality of "fodder" served out to
our ragged soldiers :
"This morning we bad another exciting time
when they issued the rations. Instead of bread
they gave us crackers about the size of a com
mon plate, and as hard as a brick. When these
were dealt out to the men they began to swear
and throw them away, and soon the camp was
flying full of crackers. The men made wagons
and used the crackers for wheels ; they made
necklaces of theta and strung them around
their necks, and used them for epaulets, and
every other imaginable way that they could be
used to show their indignation. At length the
excitement was to great that the officers became
alarmed, and attempted to stop them, but it
was o f no use. The men ouly howled, hooted,
yelled and groaned at them, and pelted them
with crackers; but they finally quieted down and
went to their quarters, swearing thatthey would
kill the first man they caught hauling crackers
or bad meat into camp. On Saturday morning
the crackers and bad meat made their appear
once again, but no sooner did the men see it
th e na they mude a break for the gates, forced
guarda away, and went to town. About
eight o'clock the town was full of squads of
soldiers, headed by officers, scouring the town
from cne end to the other, driving the runa-
w C amp l but it took until sometime in
the afternoon to get them in, and after they
did get them in they were not in a condition
to drill ; tborefure there was but little drilling
done that day, TM; morning we got good
beef and g
first rate." ood bread, and everything wont off
THE FIRE ALARM on Saturday evening was
occasioned by the burning of the shed roof at
Rocker's brick yard, in the lower section of
the city. The firemen promptly responded to
the call, but their services were not required.
No serious damage was done.
=I
CAMERON INFANTRY.—We state, by request of
members of this handsome military corps, that
their uniforms were not "contributed by the
citizens of Middletown," as announced in the
Patriot and Union this morning. The company
was named after Mr. J. D. Cameron, of this
city, who, appreciating the compliment, equip
ped its members at his own expense. The In
fantry Is the only uniformed company in Camp
Curtin, and presented a very neat appearance
on parade last evening.
Home GUARD CAVALRY CORPO. —This com
pany met at the European Hotel on Saturday
evening, and after the transaction of tome un
important business, adjourned to meet again
at the station house, in Broadway, twit Sat
urday afternoon at two o'clock, for drill ex
ercise. Officers will then be elected, and a
permanent organization effected. It is import
ant to have a strong and well-drilled force for
home defence, and all stay-at-borne patriots
should enrol themselves in companies formed
for this laudable and patriotic purpose.
WON'T ENLDIT Yon Tease YILLRIL—LSeveraI of
the companies in Camp Johnson took a vote on
volunteering for the three years service. The
malt was that .very. few , cohmnatively signi
fied their willingness to do so, giving as the
only reason that they wereinot(prolferly fed or
clothed. One of the men made a speech, and
said that there was hardly a man in his com
pany who was not willing to serve his country
for tea years, if necessary, bat that men could
not work, march, or do anything else, unless
they were preßerly provided with the necessa
ries of life.
Murmur Ruin FIIND.—This morning May
or Rapner received from Mrs. Lydia Satunvei
ler, a note enclosing ten dollars, to be appro
priated to the fund for the maintenance of
families of volunteers now in the Dallas of
their country. We learn that the payments on
Friday entirely exhausted the money on hand,
and the Mayor was obliged to advance forty
dollars of his private funds. The Relief Com*
mittee *et this afternoon for the purpose of
conferring with the Town Council and County
Commissioners ; but the result of the &Infer
enct had not transpired at the time of closing
our report.
IiESPEOT TO THE MEMORY OP COL. ELLEWOUTII.-7
The flags in Camp Curtin and throughout the
city were yesterday displayed at half-mast, as
a tribute of respect to the memory of the gallant
Ellsworth, who was assassinated by a cowardly
secessionist in Alexandria, on the occasion of
the occupation of that city by the Zouave regi
ment. Appropriate allusions to the sad death
of the youthful hero were made by the pastors
of some of our city churches.
Ellsworth—faithful to his country ;
Living but his land to save.l—
ng to sustain "unr Union”—
soldier bold and brave.
While his country's blessings crown him,
O'er him tend those high In tame,
Rendering to the youthful hero
Testimonials of acclaim—
Honors fitting to hie name.
How THE &SOLDIERS ABE Fm.—This morning
we were shown, at the Mayor's office, a speci
men of the rations furnished to the guards in
charge of the Arsenal. The meat was tainted
to such a degree as to render it offensive and
unwholesome. It would be an .act of cruelty
to feed such stuff to doge. The fact cannot be
disguised that our soldiers are shamefully
treated so far as regards supplies of food and
clothing, and dissatisfaction exists in all the
Pennsylvania camps. Let the corrupt and
mercenary peculators who are robbing the State
and swindling the volunteers be exposed, and
they will not be able to resist the whirlwind
of popular indignation that is gathering to
overwhelm them.
SHOOTING AFFAIR AT YORK. In OUT lAA Is
sue we alluded to an accident which ocoured
at Camp Scott on Saturday, resulting in the
shooting of a member of the State Capital
Guards. The particulars of the affair, as com
municated to us by letter, are as follows :
Sergeant Lutz, while handling a musket, not
knowing it to be charged, playfully snapped
the weapon at private George W. Starry. Un.
fortunately it was loaded, and the ball entered
the latter's thigh, causing a painful flesh
wound, which will prevent him from doing
duty for several days. The two young men
are intimate friends, and the accident was one
of those sad affairs so frequently . resultlng
from the reckless handling of fire-arms. Of
the four companies which left this city, mem
bers of three of them have been wounded by
the discharge of weapons in the hands of Care
less persons.
I=l
SUNDAY Is Contr.—The pleasant weather yes
terday attracted a large crowd of visitors to
Camp Curtin, many of them "lads and lasses"
from the rural districts, who bad a curiosity to
see the eights. Religious services were held in
the morning by Rev. P. Maher, and in the af
ternoon by two of our protestant clergymen,
who delivered instructive addressee to the sol
diers. The great feature of the day was a regi
mental parade and inspection at five o'clock.
One of the regiments presented a very dilapi
dated appearance, so far as regarded the cloth
ing of the men, some of them being in rags
and others without shoes. The term "ragged
militia" may appropriately be applied to this
neglected regiment. Their marching and dril
ling, however, was unexceptionable. The
regiment commanded by Colonel Ricketts pre
sented a more genteel and uniform appearance,
the various companies being clad in neat flan
nel shirts, with the exception of the Cameron
Infantry, the members of which are regularly
equipped. This regiment is composed of
"crack" companies, and the men march and
drill with the accuracy of military veterans.
When fully unirormed they will not be sur
passed, either in appearance or efficiency, by
any body of soldiers in the service. The move
ments of the "Iron Guard," a splendid looking
and stalwart set of men, were greatly admired,
and elicited expressions of c ommendation from
many of the Spectator. present.
Pennopluania IDailg ittlegrapti, Monbag - Afternoon, 1661

cently, for expressing treasonable anti riuions
sentiments. The secessionist brought the cauie
More a justice of the peace, who decided that
the flogging was a constitutional act under Ur.:
circumstances.
CAGED AGAIN.—An old offender, known to
the readers of our police reports as " Boptoad
Williams," was pulled to-day by Officer Cole,
on a charge of assault and battery. This
ebony-colored and quarrelsome pugilist is be
fore Court at almost every term, and spends a
great portion of his time in prison.
CONDUCTORS BR3GB . AND BOLEY.—Capt. E. Y.
Beggs, so long and widely known as a conductor
on the Pennsylvania Railroad, is now running a
train between Annapolis city and Washington.
Mr. Boley, formerly of this city, and for several
years a conductor on the Central road, is head
"boss" at the Washington depot. They are
both excellent officers, and appear to give
every satisfaction in their new positions.
MORE llinamear.—The trains this afternoon
brought a large accession to the troops in Camp
Curtin. Three companies arrived—one from
Northumberland, one from Lebanon, and one
from Dancanan. The two latter were accom
panied by handsomely equipped bands of n;ttt
sic ; and the standard-bearer of the Duncannon
company carried on his arm a live American
Eagle, recently captured in the vicinity of that
town.
A PIIIBII9IEING Soz.nzaa.— The Honesdale
Guards, one of the finest companies in Camp
Curtin, who came here substantially equipped
and fully armed, marched without orders, and
having no authority from the Governorlo pass
over the Northern Oentra“Railway, they
would, like others, have been - compelled to lie
over at Sunbury:- The persevering Cantata,
however, was not to be stopped, and planked
down the full fare for his men, $155 75, out of
his own pocket, and the company left the sta
tion cheeredliy the large crowd of people con
gregated there at the time. If that Captain
lives he will win laurels during the progress of
the war:
Mane AVD WAGONS NOR Till ARRN.—There
ate now at 'the United States horse depot in
this city several hundred howls designed for
cavalry and artillery service, and some eighty
camp wagons, many of .which arrived last
night from the east over the Peunaylvania rail
road. If current reports be true, the wagons
are to be supplied with provisions from tie
government store-house 'recently established
here, and forwarded to Cbambereburg, where
some ten thousand troops are to be concentrated
for the invasion of Virginia. From present
indications stirring times may be anticipated
before the close of the present week. •
Baron' zas Mayon.—Yesterday morning a
eon of ES °Wapitis from one of the upper coun
ties, wain spent the previous night in the cay
" tombs," ~arraigned before the Mayor foi
drunkenness and disorderly conduct, and
annoying the guests of White Hall Hotel.—
Owing to the dilapidated condition, of the
doctor's finances, he could not pay the usual
costs and fine, and was sent over to the re
formatory institution for four days. One John
Wagoner, a filthy specimen of humanity, was
sent to prison for thirty . days for committing a
nuisance In the market house and Indecently
exposing his person. An ebony-colored female
named Catharine Hamilton imbibed too much
extract of corn and behaved in a manner un
becoming her sex. She was found "lying
around loose," and caged for ten days. The
only occupant of the tombs last night was an
intoxicated soldier. He promised to return to
camp immediately, and "sin no more" in the
way of getting drunk, whereupon the Mayor
reprimanded and discharged him.
PATRIOTISM IN MN PULPIT. The various
ministers of the Gospel in this city evince net
only a becoming spirit of patriotism in the
present national crisis, but a proper interest in
our rulers by frequent petitions to the Throne
of Grace in their behalf. One of our esteemed
city pastors, whom we had the pleasure of
listening to yesterday, forcibly presented the ob
ligation devolved upon all churches and pro
fessing christians to remember in their prayers
those who occupy posts of public trust and re
sponsibility, to the end that they may be in•
spired with right feelings, influenced by right
motives, and guided to righteous and safe re
sults. It will be recollected that Mr. Idsicom—
whose unbending integrity has almost passed
into a proverb--in a brief address at Springfield
just before starting for Washington, confessed
his independence upon Providence, and asked
the people to "pray for him," that be might
receive that Divine assistance without -which
he could not succeed, but with which success
would be certain. Thou let him and all others
in authority—even the rebel leaders—have the
benefit of the prayers of loyal christians
throughout the land.
A Damns mow Caxr Scone Cszruasn.—
The Lancaster Repress learns from Marietta that
a deserter was arrested there while en route for
Pittsburg. He deserted from Camp Scott at
York, and was a member of the "Shield!
Guards," Capt. GaLlacher. His name is Ben
jamin Bizard, and he joined the Scott Legion
at Pittsburg ; but that company having more
than its full number he was taken into the
company mentioned above. He left while on
guard, taking his musket with him, but losing
the bayonet and cartridge-box on the way. His
causes of complaint were, first, the bad treat
ment received from the captain on refusing to
enlist for three years; but mainly the fact that
he was not loaf fed, and lay in wet sheds to
sleep. Hie story is a sad one, and he declares
that those were the causes which led to his de
sertion. If anything should make a man de
sert from his company it Is scarcity of proper
food to support life. These complaints come
too frequently and too boldly and openly to be
merely the mutterings of the discontented ;
and the time is coming when these abuses mat
be rectified and when the authors of them.will
'be punished, though hardly as muoh as their
*emu= delerrui.

May 24, 1861.
Blommin Harwoon, Esq., Pottsville Pa.
Dran.Sra :—I learned from General Biddle,
Adjutant-General, and my Aid, Colonel R. Bid
dle Roberts, that the condition of the Pennsyl
vania troops now in Washington City was dis
graceful to the State, and, what is more im
portant, that the men were . .actually suffering,
both from want of proper clothing and a
sense of shame. It is, of course, useless to-say
to you how mortified I am at such a condition
of things, and how deterthinedl that the same
shall be at once , remedied so far es t neAkine is
A PkY rwe•
Y :.x.1•0101. 1 :1 •
I requested you, last evening, t.:) proceed at
once to Washington City and take charge of
this matter. You will be kind enough to ex
amine fully into the character of the clothing
of every des - ription which has been furnished
to oar regiments now there. Ascertain the
deficiencies of every kind, defect of material,
irregularity of color and faulty manufacture,
and at once telegraph to me what is requisite
to make the men comfortable in any and every
way, and to place the regiments upon a foot
ing, so far as comfort, health, sad the army
regulations will permit, with any in the
service of the United States. An agent
will be sent with the clothing and other
equipments, and it is my desire that
you remain in Washington City, or where
ever the regiments may be, until you see that
my wishes and directions in this respect have
been frilly carried out. I confidently believed
that before this, all these matters had been at
tended to faithfully and well, and can now,
while regretting that my exertions had been
so frustrated, only press upon you energetic
and prompt action in this behalf for the com
fort of our gallant and patriotic citizens now in
the ranks of these regiments, and the preser-
vation of the honor of the State.
F.•r the Telegraph
Mr. Haywood has transmitted a report to
Gov. Curtin, in which full details are given of
the condition of the regiments. The 25th,
Col. Cake, quartered at the Arsenal and Fort
Washington, are not badly off, haying United
States uniforms. The 4tb, Col. Hartrauft, and
the sth, Col. McDowell, are suffering greatly.
The blouses and pants are of all colors,aod made
of damaged goods of inferior quality, mostly of
"shoddy," and some of "Kentucky jean." The
blankets are of the quality of ice blankets—
not fit for horses. The shoes are of wretched
material. The heels come off, and they are
constantly ripping. Many are almost barefoot.
The under clothing is tolerable, but there is an
insufficient supply. The report among the
troops is that their appearance was so bad
that Gen. Mansfield said they were not fit to
take the field. But, really, at the bottom,
they are in the best trim for fighting—loyal,
true, uncomplaining, and making fun of their
miseries in songs.
