Yesterday Inonkinir, however, when one of the servants of the hotel, went to awaken him for breakfast, no response was given, and upon en tering his room it was discovered that he was dead.

KNIPB, of the 46th Pennsylvania Vol unteera, arrived in- this city yesterday from Hagerstown. He was in the retreat of General Banks, and bears some of the severe fruits of that fearful struggle, as he was wounded in his shoulder and leg. We have not personally seen Col. Knipe, and we therefore only give this meagre notice of his arrival and condition. Suffice it to write and print that a warm and hearty welcome was extended to Col. Knipe as one of Pennsylvania's most favorite and gallant sons, COL WYNHOOP, of the 7th Pennsylvania Cav alry, attached to Brig Gen. Nagley's brigade, was in this ally yesterday, en route for his regiment in Tennessee. Cul. Wynkoop reports the men in his command as in good condition, I although they had been suffering severely du ring the winter from long exposure to rough weather, while vigorous duties of a constantly changing service had its effects upon the health of many of the men. At one time, 160 men of this regiment were in -the hospital ; while the regiment has lost three commissioned officers by death, and four by, resignation, connquent on ill health. The men, however, are now in good fighting order, ready for any service that may be assigned (hem. SOMSTIUNG BENUMB ABOUT 8A33118.-A major- ity of babies, says Mrs. Swisshelm, (and on this subject we can vouch for her being good au thority,) are to their mothers what a doll is to a little girl—something to dress, a means of displaying odds of finery, and exhibiting one's tastes. If infante were treated on the same principle that a good farmer treats a lamb, goslings, chickens, pigs, etc., viz :—well fed and kept warm, they would live and grow just as well:cared for goslings live and grow, and we never knew such an one to die. Dutch babies wear caps, and'how could any lady of good taste have her baby look like a Dutch baby? Just so, and Dutch babies generally live, laugh and grow fat, for they are " smoth ered in flannel" and feathers, and are kept all in a sweat. Dutch mothers do not keep their babies for model artist exhibitions. They cover them up, keep them warm and quiet, and raise a wonderful number of sturdy boys and girls. We treated our baby on the Dutch plan, and never last,a night's sleep with her. 1I =1 Qum !

Corresp !enve or the Telegraph I CAMP ON TAN CHICSAILOMINY RIVER, VA., Fourteen Miles from the City of Richmond, May 22d, 1862. FRIEND Berroa:—With your permission, and that of our army limits, I will try and give you a few inklings of our travels since we left our last battle-ground. I suppose that y.. 0 have beard, as well as received the official report of the battle of Williamsburg, and of course com mented upon it ere this, but allow me the priv ileges. of giving you a few facts, that h a not, as yet, given the fall satisfaction as well-as the credit due Pennsyivenift's „brave sots, that par ticipated irathatgreat batble. lorallthe credit that I have saw, is all upon the one side, there may be someliyefinktbat I have not seen, for the papers are very scarce, and hard to get, they were selling ,frincyme dollar io ona dollar and balf, - 'yesterditY; "ti• pitice; so you see that we ate eager for the news, and they are not very numerous in our camps.. : Bat this much, I will say, that there were other regiments, besides those from York State in that battle, that stood a better fire than they could ; and they did not run either ai the first charge fiorri the enemy, and those regiments are from the old Keystone State—the Ninety-third and the old Thirteenth Pennsilvania regiments, after a bard day's march through the mud and rain, we were marched up in double quick time, without any rest, right into action, that is our whole brigade commanded by General Peck, from . York State, but beiure we had our line of battle formed, the enemy made a very despe rate charge upon us ' • the Thirteenth Pennsyl vania volunteers, on the right of our regiment, and the Fifty-fifth New York State volunteers, on our l left, and the Sixty-second New York State volunteers on the left of, them, which composed our line of battle, and stood the charge. But the very first charge they made upon us, I am very sorry to say, carried the Fifty-fifth New York back, and they carried the left wing of our regiment with them ; they ac tually run the first fire, leaving our • company the only one remaining on the left . f the road, but I called for them to come back, and not run, when we opened fire all alone upon the enemy, and poured the buck and ball into them both right and left. Such a murderous fire as we kept up, I never before witnessed, they ap proached to within five yards of our left and thirty on the right, but our men never flinched, I kept urgiiag them on, as did our captain, and they bad to retreat at last, they found that we could not be driven, and we were too hot for them ; but had it not been for our remaining regiments, there would have been another Bull Run affair, for, when they came up, they bad an American flag flying, and we did not fire at first upon them, thiuking them some of our own troops ; but when they followed Bull Run, they got it; we had the Bull, and they the run •, we, stood for three hours and a half of hard fighting, the bullets a whizzing thicker than bait around us ; bomb shells, projectiles, can non balls, and grape and canister shot, told sorrowful tales, as they showered amongst us, they made such havoc among some,pf the regi ments ; but we only lost sit killed, and tweuty wounded in ours. We drove them back into their forts. During this time the other regi ment had principally rallied their men again, but our brigade decided the battle there, for there was but one volley fired after we came outs)f action by infantry ; the attillery fired a few shots . ; but while we were in action, there was no artillery, except one piece on our left iu action. And I most emphatically do say, that, to our brigade, the honor of deciding the battle of Williamsburg belongs ; and no other. I do confess that there was other brigades, that done some hard fighting, and some regiments that the rebels run away, this I will confess ; but they tried the same thing, and in the same place upon us, but it was no go, they were played out ; therefore give us our just dues, this is all that we ask, for the old Keystone State can turn out as many brave sons, as any other State in the Union. We claim our share of the spoils, we nobly won them and we want the name of Williamsburg inscribed upon our banners, to float proudly to the winds, in triumph over this enthralled land, that is to be set free from chains that bind it down in a low contemptible servitude, which must become a pure, cleansed and re mited community. This must all be accom plished before the daps of many months. Drive those imbeciles from our land, and restore peace, harmony, liberty and this, glorious old Union to its old pure state ; the stars and stripes forever. I cannot give you much 'more, we have had several little skirmishes, but no loss. We move very cautiously ; we are now on the Chicks hominy river ; we had a very tremendeons hea vy hail storm to-day ; the hail fell an large as walnuts ; I never seen such a storm ; the woods was over shoe top ; in drowned us out of our tents and our beds were all afloat ; such a time I never saw before. I must close by saying that you will hear from me soon again. The troops are in good health, and eager for a fight. Lieut. A. S.
