Correspondence of the Telegraph,]
°Axe NEAR FREenicac,
WZDNISSDAY, Dec. 18, 1861
Roma: -- Though - the "melancholly
days" have passed, and the hoar frosts of win
.ter should be upon us, yet .the weather contin
ues delightful, and the atmosphere is mild and
balmy. Ittils f/Oklif Sys ZEI 1F49 14 1t4
day in our alinkled‘helnight Sub& Witelds
mellow a light as ever illuminated the .
fat night °irk's*, land of romance and love, fair
Italy. Indeml, fa+oiable freak of nature is
exceedingly beneficial not only. to the personal
comfort but to the health of the brave boysnow
in the field, and it is a pleasant iefiection'tfiat
the hand of Him who rules the destinies of na
tions is manifest in all. We sincerely trust the
weather may continue, and that the "Christ
mas dinner" may be eaten in the open air be
neath the clear blue sky, should our friends,
living in peace and plenty, at home, sun ounded
by every comfort, give a substantial evidence of
their sympathy and encourageMent, by sending
us one. Having gone forth in response to the
call of our country, with our lives in our hands
to battle for the liberties of all,.we have sacri
ficed the comforts of home, but not the ties and
rights, and therefore claimi at least an equal
share of the "Christmas gifts." Don't forget
us.
This morning the reville sounded at an early
hour, orders to march were issued, three day's
rations were hurredly cooked, the camp long
bdore daylight was a scene of bustle and syste
matic confusion, and. rumors of a 'Ome n for
skirmish with therebels being 'circhlatek 'our
boys were in a glorious mood. Though surpris
ed at the order, as all bad anticipated spendirrg
a portion of stair winter here, yet 'they greatly
preferred the toil of a march and the hardship
of a bivouac, with the prospect of a "brush,
to leading the monotonous life of camp duty so
far from any apparent danger. ' Tire genird, in=
vigorating rays of the morning sun served to
brighten the general joy and hilarity which
prevailed, and every preparation being made,
we awaited with eagerness the order to "strike
tents." But, alas for the mutability of early
hopes, the orders were countermanded, and we
have again settled down to the usual routine' i
and will in all probability in a few days be
erecting our winter quarters.
Our proximity to Frederick renders our win
tering here , very pleasant in every respect, save i
the inducements for the clandestine ntroduc•
tion of liquor into camp by a set of,..unprinci
pled larpies, who _bang like carrion around our
camp. Col. Knipe haa, ..however, instituted
rigorous measures to suppressi.t r ad..a,coloted

merly Of Harrisburg, who discharged the re
sponsible duties of the position with great
credit. The headquarters of the 3rd Wisconsin
is in the old barracks, which was erected in
1812. The building now presents quite an an
tiquated appearance.
Senator Wilson, of Massachusetts, has in
troduced a bill into Congress abolisiting sutlers
in the army, which I am confident will meet '
the condemnation of nine-timths of the volun
teers in the field. Army fare is poor living. at
best, especially when—as is often the case—the
crackers are musty. and the pork half spoiled,
and to deprive them of an opportunity of
spending. a portion of their hard-earned means
in, such luxuries as, they mardesire, is unjust
arid'uncalled for. It is mistaken philanthro-

was said that it was impossible for, the Federale,
to remain much longer in their present posi
tion. That the effect of the news from England
and the pressure of Congress would necessarily
compel Geo. McClellan to advance,and that in
such. an event a victory on the,pitr,of the Coo

there was a larger number of killed on the part
Of the rebels than was Supposed. Three of the
prisoners who 'bad become.beivildered in the re

knowing that they were, ederal troops, and in
quired the direction to Centreville, but instead
of being taken prisoners they were shown the
way to 'Fashington.
The victory on the part of oar troops is con
sidered the more brilliant as they had never be

craplitnented both by Major General McClel

Four companies of the First Pennsylvania
Cavalry were also with the brigade, but the
conditiaon of the aormtry was such, being thickly
wooded, that they could not render service to
the extent they desired.
