We left the Hagerstown pike near. Mercers
burg, and marched over a country .road
through a small place called'Shirapatowtt, en
camping for dinner in a wood cloSe fo A tCav
alry company's encampment. The. company
in question is styled "Warren Scouts," com
manded by Capt. Warren. We are at
,this
point just - twelve miles from the POtainac
river, on the road to Clearspring, Md. We
will leave this road during the afternoon, and
head for Greencastle. I must take some din
ner, now, and will give further particulars at
our camp, this evening, wherever that maybe.

After leaving Shimpstown camp, contrary to
the expectation, we marched only two miles
further, and encamped at a village styled
Camp" Hill, directly in front of a prominent
knob of Little Cove Mountain, known as
Casey's Knob. The mountain is about two
miles distant westward, and on its summit is
one of a line of signal stations which extend
clear down to the Potomac. river. ..:We.en
camped early and shortly after 4. o'clock we
saw men signaling from the top of din ICtiob
with a signal flag, no doubt informing' silme
other station of our presence in the meld at
Camp Hill. -ae

You had better believe it !
..I inquired of a lady, "Did the rehs do any
mischief when they came through
_here last
July?" "Not much, sir; they only robbed-the
stores and fitole as many horses as they , druid
lay hands on!"
On passing a Small place called Clay-lick
Hall, I aceosted a gentleman with, "How far
distant is the Potomac river from this point ?"
"Twelve miles, sir." "Now answer me a ques
tion in return," said he; "Hew many Union
votes have you in this moving, army, here?"
A comrade at, my elbow replied, "About two
thirds of ' 3 the soldiers in these' two regiments
are ready and willing to vote for Thick-Ara
ham!" Should'nt wonder if the man spoke
the truth! .
Autumn is approaching apace—for the
many hued - tints--russet; rea p - orange
and crinison—are visible: among the tdliage
