amounted to 8260.18—a sum that will he

Great credit is due those having the festival

organized by electing as President John Con

A FREJUS. 01 , NATURE. —A correspondent
who "saw that of which ho speaks," writes us
as follows :
"Mr. David Garver, of Macon county ;
Illinois, has a cane, the head of which is a
correct likeness of Abraham Lincoln. It was
found by one of his neighbors by the name of
Pricer. It grew out of the bark of a tree, and
when he saw it he commenced to strip off the
bark, when 10, and behold! there was the
correct picture of Abraham Lincoln's head, a
little smaller than a man's fist. This is per
fectly natural, which is shown by the grains
of the wood taking such courses as to form
perfect eyes, nose, mouth, and also wrinkles
where the ears should be. But what is per
haps more singular is a perfect 2 on the back
of the head, and an A and an L on his fore
head. Mr. Garver's intention was to take it
to the President. Whether he has done so or
not we do not know. The 2is doubtless in
tended to show that Abraham Lincoln will be
the second liberator of America." .

rang through the air. In the evening a grand

Tm loyal people of Dauphin county are
alive to the importance of working for the
cause of their country, and will give a good
account of themselves next Tuesday. The
meetings held have been largely attended,
and the enthusiasm exceeds that of any for
mer occasion.
How different are the death throes of the
expiring copperhead party. There is no en
thusiasm in the ranks, and those who attend
their meetings do so after tho most earnest
drumming of the slave-drivers, who, like their
frlends•in.the South, are giving theirlast kick
"to keep up appearances."
From the 201st Regiment.
ALEXANDRIA, VA.,OCt. 4, 1864
Editor Telegraph—Companies A, B, C, D, I
and K, the entire strength of our regiment, at
present, are still lying here at Alexandria,
awaitingorders to go to our destination; which
I have every reason to believe will not be far
from this point—probably to guard along the
line of the Orange and Alexandria railroad,
while the. construction corps put this line once
more in order to push supplies forward to
Sheridan in the valley—so, at least, I have
been informed by one of the "knowing ones."
The boys are constantly accosting me with,
"Corporal, where is the TELEGRAPH? Why don't
she come along ?—would go without my din
ner to get a sight of one, to-day 1" Hold on,
lads! The
winter of our discontent.'

a copy of our staunch Harrisburg Union daily
the TELF.GRAPEC
To driVe away an hour or two of monotony,
I walked out to the wharf---zaw and heard the
following: Fifty, or more, soldiers sitting on
the different wharves looking out for bites !
Observed, lying around "loose," piles of
white, perch, catties and sun-fish.
Fine specimens of rock-fish are caught by
throwing a line, a few hundred feet in length,
baited with live-bait, (minnow or smelt,) out
into the river, where the water is probably
thirty-five or forty feet deep; at high tide.
The tide here flows and ebbs twice in twenty-
four hours—five hairs flow and seven hours
ebb in the morning, and the same at mid
night.
I managed to get aboard of the .hospitar
steamer, fitting out with all dispatch here, for
a floating hospital, and found that she is the
same magnificent "Ben Deford," formerly
plying between Baltimore, New York and
Boston, taking an 'occasional trip to Trinidad
de Cuba. She is two hundred and twenty-five
feet long, and has accommodations complete
for about three hundred and fifty sick and
wounded. Her engine is of nearly five hun
dred horse-power capacity. eleven feet stroke,
and fifty-six inch cylinder. She is a side
wheel steamer,driven by a pair of wheels each
ninety feet in circumference. She was built
five years ago, at a cost of $175,000, but
would now cost $3Q0,000. The vessel is pla
ted to the second deck, with half-inch iron,
and draws eleven feet of water when loaded
down. She has been in Government service
for the last three years. The "Deford" is to
be ready for service in a day or two, to hasten
down the river, in anticipation of the im
pending battle,
between Grant and Lee, in
front of Richmond.
The health of the men, at this writing, is
pretty good-La - few cases of diarrhoea, from
imprudent c.auses, are the only complaints I
heard mentioned.
I think if our mail matter don't soon come
to hand some of the boys will grow desperate.
On all sides your ears are assailed with the
words—" Home! home!—why don't we hear
from home?"
I am under the impression that letters di
rected to "201st Reg't. (at or near) Alexan

HEADQUARTERS ALLEM= FENCIBLES,
CAPT. DETWELLER'S INDEPENDENT CO. Vans.,
CAMP CADWALADER, PHIL'A, Oct 5.
Erma TrAT/THSHORG TELEGRAPH—Dear Sir:
—Believing a communication from us would
not be uninteresting to your many readers, I
concluded to drop you a few lines. After our
arrival in the city of Brotherly Love, we were
marched clown to Washington street, to the
Volunteers' Refreshment Saloons, where We
partook of a good and substantial breakfast.
From thence we proceeded to camp, where we
are pretty comfortably quartered in tents.
Our rations are very good pork, bread and
coffee for breakfast; excellent bean soup and
fresh bread for dinner; and I tell you your
humble servant proved a full grown hand at
the business. Bread, beef and good coffee for
supper.
For the benefit of our Harrisburg friends,
who may feel disposed to pay us a visit, i I
would state that Camp Cadwalader is pleas
antly located about one mile and a half from
Ninth and Arch streets,. where they can take
the city passenger cars out Ridge Avenue to
within the width of a small field, from camp.
Rumors were rite this morning that we would
be armed immediately and sent down to City
Point, but alter some enquiry on the subject,
I could not have the yarn confirmed, and
doubtless was gotten up by some of the smart
ones in camp for, the purpose of a big skier and
having the laugh on us; but I can assure you
,the boys would be ready and willing at a mo
ment's notice to march.
I will also say that we have quite a sprinkle
of Christians in our ranks, and having two
preachers-with us-prayer meetings are held in
She evening. A resolution was also unanimous
ly adopted by the company, that before break
fast we should be called into.ranks,•and prayer
offered by one of the religious persons in the
company. While marching to•the cook house
for our grub, a member of one of theaother
companies remarked in our hearing there was
danger of us being cheated out of our rations,
as'We were called and known as the praying
company. We have as members of the com
pany two hotel keepers, Messrs. McClintock
and Roberts; one alderman, Ist Lieut. Cole;
two policemen, Messrs. Radabaugh and Davis.
The men conduct themselves in a genteel and
soldierly manner under the tuition of Captain
Detweiler and Lieuts. Cole and Wingard, and 'I
can assure you we command the respect and,
esteem of the superior officers of the camp.:
A good deal of disappointment exists among.
some of the boys in not getting out of camp
to stroll around town and see the elephant.
No passes out of camp are issued for - the
present, but all *ill be right in a few days
should we remain here—and then we will
have a chance to go to town and take a swei
glass lager un Schweitzer case. As near as I
can judge there are about two thousand men
here and some six hundred rejected ones pro
nounced unfit for military-duty—except going
Dirieward and guarding the cattle.
I will. nom , furnish you with a list of our

at all about it--it is the great medicine of the

PRUDENCE VS. FOLLY.—PrUdgUCA and Folly
one day a shopping went Do not understand
us that they were in company, though each
in the main had the same object in view, viz:
the purchase of 'dry goods. Prudenca, with
a meffmrandum of. wants ! carefully noted, and
with a determination to' Supply those wants
where they could be supplied for the smallest
amount of money, started on a tour of exam
ination. After carefully looking through the
different dry goods stores, she made her pur
chases at C. L. Bowman's, No. 1 corner of
Front and Market streets. Folly, puffed up
and wrapped in a large garment of self-suffi
ciency, with presumption that said in every
movement and gesture, I know more about
dry goods than even those who have served
many years . in the school. Suffice it to say,
Folly made her purchases at the first store she
entered and said, ".It must be so, for, Miss
Vanity, just think, I bought .silks for a dollar
a yard less than they first asked me for them."
