CAMP SLOUGH, WEST ALEXANDRIA, VA., /.
FRIDAY EVENING, Dec. 16, 1804.
EDITOR TELEar.Apa—Dear Sir:—Last even
ing, shortly after 10 o'clock, 'the Regimental
Band, under the leadership of Professor
Augustus Ball, repaired to the "Drovers' Ho
tel," in the vicinity of Camp Slough, where a
number of Harrisburg ladies have been stop
ping for the last week or ten days, and treated
them to three or four choice pieces of music,
executed to perfection. The Professor is as
gallant as he is gentlemanly, and our towns
women, as .well as the lady of our friend, the
Surgeon, no doubt feel complimented by this
marked attention on the part of the perform
ers, for their especial gratification. Previous
to paying a compliment to our Harrisburg
lady friends, the Band serenaded Col. Awl, in
front of his quarters.
I cannot refrain from recording a "Roland
for an Oliver." An old chap, pretty well
tinctured with secession proclivities, sat read
ing the Washington Morning Chronicle, in a
provision store, convenient to our post on
Duke street. One of of r party asked him, in
a civil way, "What tffe the news, sir?"—
Spindle-shanks replied, "The news are that the
Devil is dead, and they want the 201st to at
tend the funeral!" "We will do that with
pleasure—Satan is a gentleman compared to
sneaking secessionist, but when you and your
ilk, the villainous followers of Jeff. Davis, 'go
under,' we should hesitate the worst kind td
assist in your burial, for our Regiment has
more self respect than that amounts to, and
w 6 would not like to lend a hand in putting
out of the way traitors to their country."
The First New York Light Artillery, Bat
tery K, left Fort Ellsworth, yesterday, for
some other point, and a party of Wisconsin
Heavy Artillery, Captain Raust commanding,
took their placG.
There is a pretty Gothic building three sto
ries high,With a fine cupola, near the fort, at pre
sent occupied by a family named Beirce, who
board the officers attached to the fortification.
This beautiful homestead was once the sum
mer residence of Ashby, the famous rebel
cavalry general, killed, I think, somewhere in
the South, last summer. Near the residence
is a family burial groundin which repose the
remains of some of the Ashby family, but I
11
ad not time to examine it. When the war
broke out Col. Ashby turned over his effects
to a noted secesh family, of Alexandria, and
they, now claim the homestead. How they
intend to establish their title, remains to be
seen, and the point will be satisfactorily set
tled, after the Government has no further use
for the premises.
Ice has been running pretty freely to-day
on the Potomac, much to the annoyance of
the Washington boat, and river craft in gene
ral. It is necessary for boats to run at a mod
erate speed, to obviate all risks—the breaking
of machinery and other accidents.
We heard firing all morning, at Fort Lyons,
opposite our camp, and the discharge of
heavy ordnance fairly made the air tremble.
The men were trying the range of some of the
monster guns, we learned afterwards.
At this writing there is another funeral cor
tege moving away from Slough Barracks Hos
pital; two more heroes who have sacrificed
their lives on the altar of freedom, are now
being carried away in in the U..S. Military
Hearses, to the soldiers' cemetery. The shrill
fife, the muffled drum, and a squad of com
rades compose the funeral of these poor sol
diers. No friend or relative near to take
"one last, long look" ere their coffin lid is
fastened, and their familiar faces hid from
sight forever!
To-morrow morning three or four of our
Harrisburg lady visitors return to their
homes, taking with them many letters, &e.,
sent by the soldiers to their families at the
North.
I have heretofore neglected to state that
among the most useful men in the 201st Reg
iment is our particular friend Robert Vincent
Vaughn, Sergeant-Major of the 201st. Efe is
prompt in the execution 'of orders—gentle.
manly in intercourse with others—obliging,
full of good humor, and respected by every
man, (I may safely assert,) in the whole reg
iment. Sergeant Vaughn was formerly a
member of Col. Awl's company, 127th Regi
ment, and has many friends here, as well as
in Harrisburg.
An old gentleman from Loudon county,
Virginia, stopped at our post yesterday, to
make inquiry about a certain farmer living in
the vicinity of Alexandria, of whom he had
purchased two horses. We directed the stran
ger to R —'s place, and when he returned
shortly afterwards, he led a pair of horses,
both of them blind as a bat ! "Why do you
purchase blind stock, neighbor ?" we asked.
"For this reason," he replied: "Moseby
would not allow his men to take a blind-horse
—that description of stock is unsuitable for
cavalry or guerrilla raiding—so, you perceive
it is the only description of stock we can keep
to-do our work with ; and, therefore, not only
policy, but economy to buy blind horses."
The weather has been mild all day, only a
trifle soft under foot. Boys all well and in
the best of spirits. Truly yours, A. H. B.
CAMP SLOUGH, WEST ALEXANDRIA, Vs., }.
THFrESDAY, 4-r. M., Dec. 15, 1864.
EDITOR. TELRGEAPH—Dear Sin-1 was agree
ably surprised, this morning, while busily
engaged over a pan of meat, to see our friends
Sullivan S. Child, Esq., and Captain Levi
Weaver, of the old 55th Penn's Vols., step
into our shebang, and take us by the hand,
although we were elbow-deep in grease. Our
friends both looked remarkably izell, and
were gladly received by their numerous friends
here, May the gallant Captain's laurels, so
fairly earned, in a hard service, never grow
dim, and our friend Child prosper in all his
future undertakings, is our sincere wish.
2d Lieut. S. M. Hammil, Co. "D," has been
detached from his company and detailed for
patrol duty in the city of Alexandria, by order
of Brig. Gen. John P. Slough.
2d Lieut. Geo. W. Myers, Co. "G," has been
relieved from duty with the Independent Com
pany of "Patapsco Guard," Maryland Vols.,
at Chambersburg, and ordered to his company
for duty, at Bloody Run, by order of Major
General Caldwallader.
By a special order from the :War. Depart
ment, Tilghman F Hensue, a deserter from
Company "B," 153 d Penn's Volunteers, nine
months' troops, (who was found guilty of de
sertion, by a court-martial convened at Alex
andria,) is fined tolo, and is to forfeit all pay
and allowances due him at the time of deser
tion, and' to forfeit $lO Rer month of his
monthly pay for the remaining six montha ha
has to serve. He was assigned to Company
"H," Captain Benj F. Ashenfelter. "Verily,
the way of the transgressor is hard."
Brig. Gen. John P. Slough, who has been
absent, on leave, for a short time, has re-
Tritetal)k
turned, and again resumes the military Gen
eralship of Alexandria, and command of the
troops in this Department.
The New York Tribune, a day or two since,
stated: "We have the comforting assurance of
an officer, high in command, that effective
measures have been taken to rid the Shenan
doah and Loudon Valleys of guerrillas."
To whiCh the Alexandria Virginia State
Journal replies: "It might have been done
months ago, and without the wholesale de
struction of property belonging to Union men.
One good cavalry regiment would have been .
sufficient to have kept the country clear of
thieves and robbers, and rendered all the pro
tection the people desired."
Not so easily, friend, either. Had the mili
tary authorities acted upon the principle of
the celebrated California Vigilance Committee,
who were compelled, some years since, to exe
cute all desperate characters found in the city
of San Francisco, in order to rid the country
of their presence—the guerrillas of the Vir
ginia valleys cod have been exterminated
months ago. The fiends and cut-throats, un
der Moseby and Kinchelo, when taken, were
treated as ordinary prisoners of war, no mat
ter if the blood of inoffensive Union men, or
of the Union soldier, (whom they followed
and hunted down like beasts of prey,) was
fresh reeking from ther uplifted blades. Such
men deserve no mercy—for they gave none--
and we are free to say it is the fault of the
United States Government alone that they
carry on their depredations, plundering, rob
bing and murdering all those who fall in their
way, in the localities which they still infest.
Hunt them down like wild animals—wipe them
ouf-put an end to them as speedily as possi
ble•-and the country at large will thank you
for the extermination.of these hell-hounds.
Mount Vernon, Virginia, the home and rest
ing-place of the remains of the immortal
Washington, is just seven miles distant from
here, down the Potomac river, We intend to
visit the spot at an early day, and give your
readers such a report of our visit as we hope
may be of interest.
At the new Theatre, Mr. Parker's, they have
brought upon the boards "Dan Setchell;" a
popular American Comedian. He appeared
as "Hugh de Brass," in the farce of A R7l
- Fix, and "Mr. John Peter Pillicoddy, in
/poor Pillicoddy, and as "Toby Trump," in the
farce of The Mummy. The house is crowded
nightly.
Will the sauer kraut be along ? the boys re
quest me to ask. In haste.
Truly yours,
FORT MoAmasTait.—Fort McAllister, which
was captured on the 14th instant by General
Sherman, is a very strong earthwork, situated
on the Ogechee river, about sixteen miles
south of the mouth of the Savannah river, and
about six miles from the mouth of the Ossabaw
Sound. This part of the coast of Georgia is of
that amphibious character which marks so
much of the Southern coast in general—the
raveled and unfinished ends of nature's web
where sea and land keep up a mutual warfare.
The ocean breaks in between Great Wassaw,
and Ossabaw Islands, forming Ossabaw Sound,
.and into this estuary flow the Great and Little
Ogechee and the Vernon rivers. The land, or
rather the marsh on each side of the Ogechee,
is almost a flew d'eau, certainly hardly rising
a foot above the level of the river, while at
times it is entirely submerged. For mil es
and miles on every hand there is nothing to
be seen but these low and level islands and
islets, covered with reeds and rank grasses,
save where a lustier vegetation has pushed up
in occasional clumps of trees called "hum
mocks."
About six miles from the mouth of Ossabaw
sound, near where the Savannah, Albany, and
Gulf Railroad crosses the Ogechee, the river
jets out into a promontory named Point Gen
esis, covered by one of these hummocks of
more than ordinary size. Behind this, hidden
from the river, lies Fort McAllister, an earth
work of immense strength, erected by the
Rebels early in the war. Its batteries com
pletely commanded the river.
Fort McAllister, which has just succumbed
to an attack from the land side, had previously
bid defiance to two attacks from our naval
forces. The first of these took place nearly
two years ago. On the 27th of January, 1863,
the monitor Mantauk, commanded by Captain
Worden, bombarded its earthen walls for
nearly six hours, without either receiving or
doing much damage. Each appeared to be
invincible against the other. The second and
More important attack was made on the 3d of
March, 1863.
The vessels employed in this engagementwere
the monitors Montauk, Passaic, Patapsco and
Nahant, and the gunboat Seneca, Wissahickon
and Dawn, and several mortar-schooners.
This formidable force rained a storm of shot
and shell upon the fort for one whole day,
with no more damage to the Rebels than the
dismounting of a gun or two. Late in the
afternoon the fleet was withdrawn, uninjured,
and the vessels dropped down the stream, the
Rebels coming out on the parapets and cheer
ing a defeat adieu.

A BET ON THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.
A few days previous to the Presidential elec
tion two gentlemen, one from Vermont and
the other from Pittsburg, residing temporarily
in this city, made a bet to the following ef
fect: The latter bet the former a full suit of
clothes and a hat that M'Clellan would re
ceive the electoral vote of New York. Soon
as the result was known the Vermont man se.
lected his clothes, whilst the loser contended
his right to prescribe the style of the hat. He
accordingly went to the establishment of Mr.
William D. M'Oord, Baltimore street, oppo
site Hanover, and ordered a hat of the follow
ing dimensions: Height 15 inches, breadth of
brim 6 inches, and breadth of the top 12
inches. It is just abont three times the size
of an ordinary hat, and will attract a crowd
wherever it is worn; but, notwithstanding, the
winner of the bet will be compelled to wear
it at least one year.—Balt, American.

three years in the army arrived home that
morning just in time to see the lifeless bodies
of his children taken from the water.

DYSPEPSIA, DYSPEPSIA, DYSPEPSIA.
Faxesnkra BasissoN, of Brandywine,
Del., formerly of Old Chester, Del., do certify
that, for one year and a hall I suffered every
thing but death from that awful disease called
Dyspepsia. My whole system was prostrated
with weakness and nervous debility; I could
not digest my food; if I ate even a cracker or
the smallest amount of food, it would return
just as I swallowed it; I became so costive in
my bowels that I would not have a passage in
less than from tour and often eight days; un
der this immense suffering, my mind seemed
entirely to give way. I had a dreadful horror
and evil forebodings. I thought everybody
hated me, and I hated everybody; I could not
bear my husband nor my own children, every
thing appeared to be horror-stricken to Me;
I had no ambition to do anyth 'rig; I lost all
my love of family and home; I would ramble
and wander from place to place, but could not
be contented; I felt that I was doomed to
hell, and that there was no heaven for me,
and was often tempted to commit suicide,
to near was my whole nervous system de
stroyed, and also my mind from that awful
complaint, Dyspepsia, that my friends thought
best to have me placed in Dr Kirkbride's
hospital, West Philadelphia; I remained
there nine weeks, and thought I was a little
better, but in a few days my dreadful com
plaint was raging as bad as ever. Hearing of
the wonderful cures performed by Dr. Wis
hart's Great American Dyspepsia Pills and
his treatment for Dyspepsia, my husband
called on Dr. Wishart and stated my case to
him. He said he had no doubt he could cure
me. So in three days after I called and placed
myself under the Doctor's treatment, and in
two weeks I b9gazi to digest my food, and felt
that my disease was fast giving way, and I
continued to recover for about three months,
and at the present time I enjoy perfect health
of body and mind, and Imost sincerely return
my thanks to a merciful God and Dr. Wis
hart, and to his great American Dyspepsia
Pills and Pine Tree Tar Cordial that saved me
from an Insane Asylum and premature grave.
All persons suffering with Dyspepsia are at
liberty to call on me or write, as I am willing
to do all thegood I can for suffering hu
manity. ELIZABETH BRANSON,

DYSPEPSIA I'DYSPEPSIA 1
Da. Wissaits-1 have been a constant sufferer with
Dyspepsia for the last eighteen years, during which time
I cannot Bay I ever enjoyed a perfectly well day. There
were times when the symptoms were more aggravated
than at others, and then it seemed it would be a great re
lief to die. I had at alt times an unpleasant feeling In my
head, but latterly my sufferings so much increased that
I became almost antitfor businese Of any kind; my mind
was continually filled with gloomy thoughts and fore
bodings, and if I attempted to change their current by
reiading, at once a sensation of icy coldness in connection
with a dead weight, as It were, rested upon my brain ;-
also, a fee li ng of sickness would occursa the stomach, and
great pain to my eyes, accompanied with which was She
continual fear of lawn my reason. I also experienced
great lassitude, debility and nervousness, which made it
difficult to walk by day or sleep at night. 1 became
averse to society, and disposed only to seclusion, and
having tried the skill of a number of eminent physicians
of various schools, finally came to the conclusion that, for
this disease at my present age (45 years) there was no cure
In existence. But, through the interference of Divine
Providence, to whom I devoutly offer my thanks, I at last
found a sovereign remedy in your Dyspepsia Pills and
Tar Cordial, which seem to have effectually removed al
most the last trace of my long list of ailments and bad
feeling; and in their place health, pleasure and content
ment are my everyday companions

DYSPEPSIA 1 DYSPEPSIA
I, Samuel D. Haven, have been a great sufferer with
Chronic Dyspepsia and Inflammation of the Kidneys for
three years. I employed three or tour of the most emi
nent physicians of Philadelphia, also of Burlington county
They did all for me they could, hot all to no pur
pose. I was constantly filled with awful pain and dis
tress, and with constant belching of wind and sour acid.
Hy forum was covered with a white coating of mucus
instil it cracked in large furrows, and woe dreadfully
sore! Ohl I ofttlmes wished for death to relieve me of
my sufferings, for I had lost all hope of ever being well
again. I made it a subject of prayer to God that he
would direct me to some enrocom or morthano
would sure me. I was told to read an advertisement of
Dr. Wisner% in the Ptuntoeiphis Lodger, of a great cure
made upon Hr. John Babcock, of 1028 Olive street, Phila
delphia, by the great American Dyspepsia Pills. I went
to the Doctor's Office. and placed myself under h treat
ment, and told him if he failed to care me, it would bathe
last effort I woutd make. It has been six weeks slue I
commencod the use of his medicine, and I am now a well
man, free novo all pain and distress, and can eat three
hearty meals a day with comfort, and feel perfectly welt.
I want you to publish my case, as want
