Follow Your Leader.
Wc observe that a few of our supcr-royal-Loyalists
have been getting up a
"Union League" in BloomBburg. Have
they forgotten how they used to sneer at
Democrats as "Union Savers" ? Wo won

The same kind to whom Parson Brown
low in a letter to an Abolition League
meeting at Chioago,used the following plain
language.-
'You citizens of Chicago call yourselves
loyal; you glory in your loyalty, you
proclaim it upon the streets, and herald it
in your press, and deelaro it from every
platform , but it costs nothing to he Coyul

Loyalty leads to the field."
Abolition Arguments.

be'oneofthe bost "shows" over known
here. A sight at the Clown alone, we

Arroatod for tolling tho truth.
M. M. Pomcroy, editor of the LaGroi
so Domocrat, who has forsomo timo been
army correspondent of tho Milwaukio
Nows and Chicago Times, has been order
ed tolcavo the Department of Gen. Pren
tiss for giving the facts as ho saw thorn,
without gloss or transformation. It is only
necessary to say that Mr. Pomcroy liaa
beon of tho "war Democratic stripo," and
a slcrnuous supporter of a "war for tho
Union " . I
Cominoncing cn his arrcst,and exclusion
from the lines, Mr. Pomcroy says; ''Our
ofTcncowas simply this: wo had told tho
truth. After months of observation and
close investigation, we dotorminad to givo
our readers facts leaving lies to be spoken
by official reports of victories nover won,
by commanding officers like Prentiss, and
the telegraph. The idea of writing facts,
startled, as with tho sting of lightening, tho
willing, tools of tho Administration, and it
should not be allowed.
Tho truth of our letters tho existence
ol evils and wrongs still greater than any
wo havo written of, is still in tho army.
Wo asked Gen. Prentiss if we had writ
ton a word which was not truth simplo and
uncontrovertible. Wo dared him to deny
it gavo him prool to substantiate tho ar
tides, no ono can contradict. His reply
was this: "Mr. Pomcroy, I want you to un
dcrstand that tho truth shall not bo written
from this district to discourage tho puoplo
of the North, so long as I am here."
So long as wc remained silent to the
dishonesty and corruption among officers
in tho army, wo were a princo of good fel
lows. So long as an editor endorses every
movo of tho administration, or writes up a
hero of every ignorant, theiving and cow
ardly General, cursing tho army with his
presence, and the country with his cxis
tencc, it ia all right. Just so long as wo
soc fit to romain silent and sco poor pco
pie plundered men deprived of all their
legal or political rights tho flag of the
North marking tho depository of stolen
coods Generals stealing cotton : Colonels
stealing horses ; Captains stealing mules;
Chaplains stealing negroes, and privates
stealing laces, jewelry, clothing, bedding.
pictures, and loved mementoes of friendship
from innocent women and children, with
out our writing a word of protest and de
manding that such damnablo vandalism be
stopped. So long as wo could witness the
persistent efforts in tho army to crush
Democrats rather than the rebellion
could sec the Union residents of the South
robbed and insulted by the men they once
prayed to God might reach them quickly.
So loDg as we had daily evidence gleaned
from picket post, camp fires, suttlcrs' tents,
and hospitals, that the army was becom
ing demoralized, and the men that were
not afraid to speak, weary and disgusted
with tho life of plunder and idleness they
were leading, and mention it not, wo were
a loyal citizen. Nine months siuco Ilelc
na was occupied by Federal troops.
Thirty five thousand men pitched their
tents there in the rich cotton county of
Philips, and the work begun. In nine
months eight changes of commanding offi
cers over that post have shown tho unsta
blcness of tho government, and tended to
demoralize the troops. Six out of the eight
commandors there have mado independent
fortunes in cotton, mules, and other
speculations, hut the enemy has nover been

CAM!' Oot.llMMA, 1
Williamsburg, Vo., May 12, 1803.
Col. Tate, Dear Ai'r; Tho position
of a nowspapcr correspondent is not to bo
envied ; it is neither pleasant or lucrative;
and I would profor not being placed in
that "rank.' Yet 1 would claim tho priv-
ilcgo of communicating tho whereabouts
and proceedings of tho 178th l'cnn. Reg
iment, of which 1 am a humblo member,
i'his rogimcnt, as you will soo by my
heading, lies at Williamsburg, on the
saorcd soil of tho "Old Dominion," whoro
it has boon linco the lltli of April, doing
picket duty. Tho rebel Wise niado a raid
upon this placo, as you havo been informed,
somo four weeks ago, drovo our pickets out
of town, attacked Fort Magruder, and in
tho moanwhilo scut a regiment around on
our loft, through a deep raviuo, getting in
our roar and cntiiely destroying tho Camp
of tho Pcun. Cavalry, capturiug and kill
ing several horses, besides carrying off a
considerable amount of cqiiippago, and to
cap tho climax made safe their retreat the
samo way thoy came in. This has been
considered by all a bold dash, although it
certainly benefitted them but little, more
than a grattlication n any. it may lie
said to pretty well balance off sonic of tho
raids our troop3 had been making in Glou
cester countv a short time previous. I am
not an advocate of theso raids ; as my im
pression is, it only tends to create and stir
up still greater animosity and bittor hatred
towards our caujo. I cannot sec the pro
priety of destroying property, such as
grain, houses and barns, in communities
composed only of negroes and helpless
women, dependent entirely upon what
grain thoy havo and the ooming crop, for
their support. Theso things huve boon
practiced to un enormous extent. Women
and children, besides slaves without num
ber, havo beon deprived the necessaries of
lifo, by these parties sent out to commit
such depredations, and this not being suf
ficient, tho very shelters have been des
troyed from over their heads, thus lcaviug
them to seek rcfugo and safety somewhere
else, or remain subject to the pelting
storms and perish. This is onlv some of
the results and doings of this rebellion.
What a blessing will our country enjoy
when this accursed war shall cease
beliovc there is not a soldier who does not
wish to tbo innermost cells of his heart
lhat this rebellion was over. There may
bo a few unprincipled men iu the higher
ranks who delight in tho continuance of
tho war. and who aro makinrr out of it
their thousands 1 But there U a day of
retributive justice awaiting these scoun
drels. Since my last letter there lus not much
of interest transpired in our regiment,
henco my long silence. Wo aro in tho front
now and aro liable to smell powder almost
any hour. Although from tho weakly be
stowed oastigation upon me, by my ex 1st
Lieutenant W. II. Reinbold, iu his corres
pondence to tho Republican of your place,
one would suppose that I was not willing to
hazard myself so much as to smell the
irenit.tliln iriin nnwdnr. If T was ennsidfirnd
i.pnn.h" lm .tnfe.1 "tl.n W n11 n,n."i
I should think my Captain would not allow
mc to do picket duty day and night, as 1 1
havo been doing. This same would-be-
patriotic Lieutenant was cited before a
board of examination, his abilities being
questioned for the position ho held. He
knowing, or perhaps some one told him,
that ho was greatly deficient iu military
discipline, and bciug hard pushed for a
substantial eauio to found a resignation,
ho onco owned and acknowledged the
truth, by sending to our corps commander
a resignation of incompetency. It was im
mediately accepted. Further, this same
Lieutenant belonged to that class of officers
to which our chaplain mado an allu-iou
some few days since, in tho following lan
guage as nearly as wc remember: ''You
have elected somo officers in this rogimcnt
who do not possess a sufficient amount of
brains to fill tho quill of a humming bird,
and if blown into the eye of a gnat would
not injure it. ' Yet this ex Lieutenant sets
himself up as a chief magistrate to decide
on the loyalty of his "privates." Ho will
return to his nativity ere long, if not there
already, where ho may stand goo l for the
next drafi, out of which ho will not bo
able to extricate himself so easily, and
enter tho army in a different channel as
he did in tho former draft. I will give a
short history of his formor draft. Ho was
dratied in Columbia county on tho 10th of
last October, claimed and procured ex
emption a3 a teacher, after whioli ho sold
himself as a substitute for two or three
hundrod dollars ; this done, he next pro
cured a First Licutouanoy in Company I,
whioh company I havo the honor to bolong
Tho honor comes in since ho has been dis
missed from the company. Our Captain,
W. II. Shuman. is a worthy and respectable
man ; as well as was our Second Lioutcn
ant, Daniel G. Eut, who procured a dis
charge on a certificate of disability.
My not much esteemed ex-First Licu
teuant ltcinbold, took exceptions to a few
remarks mado by mo in a communication
rolativo to somo suggestions offered by a
Pennsylvania oditor who was on a tour at
Yorktown. Tho editor I thought out of
balanco, or at loast uet in bounds of
humanity, and was treated in my letter
accordingly. This was take up by my ox
First Lieutenant, and failing to sustain Ijio
Abolition editor in Ins assertions, turn,
upon his humblo privato with opithots and
insinuating remarksi doubting my loyalty
which no man had ever questioned
boforo. So far as this goes, ho is not a
competent judge, hence it availcth nothing
in tho least,
Tho health of our regiment is excellent.
Tho boys arc counting tho days they yet
havo to remain in Undo Sam's scrv'ioo.
Very fow, in my opinion, will rc-untor tho
servico. Tho weather is warm, but not so
hot as ono might expect on tho 13tli of
May. Wheat and fruit look lino in this

Dear Brother :
Your kind letter came to
hand last evenintr. nnd was read with
p'casuro. I was much pleased to hear voting and aiding others to vote for the
that you were all well, my health is not Democratic ticket iu that etate. Tho
very good at present, owing to tho expo-1 reason alono was alleged nllcgcd by Ad
sure of our last move. Wo havo had a jutant-Gcncral Thomas, whoso loyalty ho

scctns that this army must suffer defeat , ''" TIlc aot of th'13 high officer has not

1 j j i
I do not know the exact number, but it
was somewhere between eight and twelvo
thousand. Tho report is that the cue
ray's loss is much heavier than ours, 6,'
I can't sec it. I think that tho Grand !
Army of the Potomac is about played out.
I think that our nigger loving soldiers at
home will soon be satisfied that the great
Republican administration is a failure.
I am satitfied as far as soldiering goes.
I would like to play quit. 1 think that
"fighting Joe Hooker" as they call him,
is also about played out.
We have but one man in these United
States, that is able to accomplish anything
with this
army,
and that man is little
Georoe B. McCIjEllan. But he was a
Democrat once, aud also a Pennsylvania,
anil for those reasons he n:iniot have com
mand of this army. The reason is simply
this : lie wa3 gotting too popular, aud
they began to fear that if ho would ac-
compusn many more victories, that lie
would bo a candidate for tho next Presi-1
dency, and once there, they could not J
bilul llim as "' Pleascd to accomplish
these Black pvinriplcs. Now, they arc
bringing up bad repoits about htm to slan-
tier his character but the only accusation
that they can bring against him is, tbatv
he was a Democrat, aud now must be a
"Copperhead."
I tell you Frank, I believe that if tliero
is a hell, and if it docs not get crowded
with abolitionists, they must soon change
their mind. Upon whose heads will the
blood of our murdered comrades fall?
Why, Horace Greeley, and hii followers.
The battlc-iicid is an awful sight, but
wllcn J'ou think what they arc fighting for
I almost wonder that the leaders aro not
struck dead whilo they aro filling their
pockets out of tho public Treasury.
But 1 will drop the subject for it makes
mo mad to think of it.
I hope that I will be able to get a fur
lough between this and harvest.
I am on guard to night, it is now ten o'
clock, I will have to bo up all night.
Please answer soon, givo my love to
Father, Mother, Adam and all (he rest.
But I forgot to tell you what a good
dinner I had to-day. It was hot coin,
bread nnd butter, milk and throe eggs, I
got it at a farm-houso for seventy five
cents.
1 remain your Brother.

ABRAHAM KLINE,
This is Rebel Paper on which I write.
Democratic Orrcr.its to hi: Cleared
Out. The War Department recently dis-
'sscd Lieut. Edgarly from the army for
I been disavowed. It is, therefore, to be
tal;on as muicating tlio policy ol the att
tnilllStratlOU.
But not merely lieutenants and captains
of Dcinoorrtlc pr'nciplcs arc to be kicked
out of the army. Generals themselves,
of that faith, aro to bo deposed. The
Tribune pronounces tho edict. The ques-
tion of competency or incompetency is not
now to decide the matter. It is not gen
eralship or a want of it which will deter
mine rank and place, or expulsion there
from. Noue but abolitionists to lead the
soldiers will be the new cry.
It takes time ic has taken too much
time to get the baton out of the hands of
these military Copperheads; but the need
cd reform will bo effected, and the rosult
will be Victory, Union, and Peace. Tri-

Wendell Philips, at the Cooper Institntc,
had as usual, sounded the note to which,
with more or less delay, tho llupublicau
party have always marched :
Cromwell never succeeded until the
Long Parliament sloughed off every man
that bclievau in tbo House oi Lords, ami
Mft othi but Democrats behind. We
shall never tucceed until wo slough oii
everything that believes in the past, and

thero U but one purpose that is, to save
i the Union on the basis of libeity.
(Cheers.)
To this he added tho prayer that wc
might have defeats till abolition generals
and an abolition policy led the soldiers
aud guided the war :
God grant ns so many reverses that the
government may learn its duty ; God grant
us that the war may never end till it loaves
us on the soi'id granite of impartial liberty
and justice. (Cheers.)
