conflict.
Tbe Panoramas of the Rebellion

Express Company has atowed away thous

to as articles for the soldiers generally

JcyTbere are in the Union armies, as
is evident to all, downright traitors. We
do not doubt there are, also, good and true
soldiers, who still (from old associations or
misrepresentations) adhere to and vote for
modern "Democracy." Individuals and
occasionally a Company vote that way,
as they have legal right to do. There
is full liberty to vote as they eboose. Yet
we doubt not tbe overwhelming majority
of the soldiers loathe and detest the spirit
of tbe sham "Democratic" leaders. The

One more illustration. John V. Miller,
one of the most respected volunteers from
Lewisburg, was ooe of onr most ardent
Democrat, and even enstained Mr.Hedges
after be bad voted against those Union
resolutions in Conference. On bis late
visit borne, Mr. Miller j lined our Uoion
League, and, being asked, said, the Army
resolutions against Copperheads were, as
be believed, the honest, earnest views of
tbe soldiers faeiog an armed foe.

Oar camp ia located about 100 yards
from the mouth of tho famous eanal, and
in good view of tbe ill-fated city lying 4
miles doe east The canal, as far as com
pleted, ia 60 feet wide, 14 feet deep, la
miles in length, with 5 feet fall There
are now about ten feet of water in it, and
had tbe lower end been cleared of stumps
''nit trpa a.nrl been duo aumftientlv deen
-- i o
before the water bad been turned in, any
vessels could pass through. Dredge boats
bave been at work, but the Rebels shelled
them and they were compelled to atop.
If tbe canal would be a success, no vessel
but ironclads could get through, for,
opposite its termination, heavy batteries
are planted, and they have acquired ao I
correct range as to bo able to blow any
transport np, that might attempt to pass.
They bave also good range of oar camps,
and scarcely a day passes but they send
tome of tbeir toys over.
On the 10th inst., fire of the ironclads
and four mortar boats, accompanied with
500 infantry of onr brigade, stated on an
expedition to try effect a passage into the
Yaioo, above Hainea Bluff. Proceeded
about ten miles np the Yazoo, then
turned into Black bayou, a narrow bat
deep ttream, and tbeooe into Deer creek,
at the month of which tbe infantry was
landed and went into eamp, while the
gunboats proceeded np. The stream
became very narrow, aod nothing larger
than a skiff bad ever been teen on it.
Yoa may judge of the astonishment of
the people aeeing ear monster ironclads
moving through tbeir plantations, often
within two rods of their doors. It was
amusing tosee theoootrabauds : "Da Lor
hab merey ! Metta Linknm'i too smart
for tbo Sondernsl Bound to whip 'em
out," &o. Tbe gunboats moved about
twenty miles to Rolling Fork, where a
battery of 18 or 20 gnns was opened on
them, and a large force of infantry eome
rushing oat of tbe timber, as it waa thought,
to board tbe gunboata. Tbey were twept
with canister. Wa were then ordered up,
and before getting to the boats were fired
into by a body of Rebels in ambush killing
one aoo? wounding two. We returned it,
killiog tiz of tbem on the spot. They
felled trees across the stream, blockading
it, sod it became so narrow that it was
found impossible to proceed further and
tbe order was given to fall back. Tbe
gunboats bad to back fifteen miles before
tbey could turn. Tbe Rebels got in lw
rear, in order to ent off our retreat Ibsy
LEWISBURG,
then opened their battery, and wo bad
quite a spirited skirmish, bat 'they were
rented. We then cleared oat tbe obstruc
tions and moved on down, having been
gone twelve days and lost four killed aod
twelve wounded.
To day tbe weather is cool, but for the
last two weeks it was as warm as June in
Penn'a. Tbe woods are green, and peach
trees were in bloom three weeks ago.
There is considerable sickness among tbe
troops, owing to tbe atsgoated water
about our camps. Wii. Reed.

Co. C, 13th 111. Vol., April 14 j
A few days ago, Wm. Reed, of Union
eounty, called npon me. I was surprised
to see him, as 1 supposed I was the only
man from that good old county in this
branch of the army. I could scarcely re
alize that nine or ten years had passed,
and I really was glad to see bim again.
I was ooe of tbe first to enlist in tbe
service of my country. It will be two.
years, tbe 24th of next month, since I
left my borne, and the dear ones there,
because I thought that duty called me.
Our regiment is the oldest ia service in
tbe army of the West.
He spent the first summer and winter
in and around Rolls, Missouri, marching
once to Springfi:ld under Gen. Fremont
then participated in tbe arduous expedi
tions under Gen. Cnrtii, through Arkan
sas to Helena on tho Mississippi last
Dee. joined the army of tbe Tennessee,
under Gen. Sherman waa in tbe unsuc
cessful expedition np tbe Yssoo in tbe
rear of Vicksburg assisted in eaptnring
7,000 Rebels at Arkansas Post and
sinee the 25th of Jan. has been again be
fore Vicksburg city, in ber traitorous
beauty, which, be hopes, will be oars be
fore another month passes by.
I am glad to see tbat yoa dislike the
faction styled "Copperheads." Tbey will
soon run tbeir course and I hope tbeir
days are few. Tbey should be pat
down, and made examples of. I bate
them more than I do tbe true traitors of
tbe South.
I have been gone from yonr eonnty so
long, that I may have been forgotten,
though I hope not, and it may be my let
ter will be read with interest by soma
whom I bave not forgotteo. And now,
with all my best wishes for tbe Pennsyl
vania soldiers, and the brave Illinois, I
will bid yoa adieu.

Upton's Hill, April 13.
I am alowly recovering from an attack
of bilious fever. Yesterday a eitixen came
from Falls Church to get me to attend
a funeral, atating that tbe people bad
been waiting three hours. I ordered my
horse, but could with difficulty mount
him ; found tbe house, and a large con
gregation, and though hardly able to
ataod, managed to get through. In the
afternoon, held service in camp to quite a
good congregation. I bave no desire to
leave my Regiment, as I bave more in
fluence on the men tban I bad at first,
and bope I may do some good. Besides,
I should like to be with tbe boys when
our colors are planted on the Rebel capi

by order of Gen. Biroey to the cbargo of
tbe Hospital of 1st division, 3d Corps, at

Hot Pleated with the Connecticut Elertlea.
The "Peace" Democrata hoped to carry
Connecticut with their favorite Seymour,
(who has been Governor heretofore,) and
were never so disappointed. It seems by
tbe following, from a Richmond Dispatch,
tbat tbe Rebels, also, don't like it :
"The Connecticut election bas gone
against the Democrats Tbe importance
of this defeat ean not well be exaggerated,
for, if the result had been otherwise, the
Northwest would have riien,the Peace party
would have litem organized on a permanent
basis, the next meeting of Congress would
have bee followed by a summary abroga
tion of the imperial powers bestowed upon
Lincoln by the Abolition Congress just
ended, and a cessation of hostilities might
have been eocfideotly looked for at or
before tbe elose of tbe present year.
Tbe Rebels are so near exhausted that
"a cessation of hostilities" is now the only
hope they have. Conld tbey get Govern
ment to recall all ita forces, give np all it
bas recovered, and thus save the Rebels
time to recruit, raise crops, and import all
tho arms aod munitions from Europe they
need, the Rebels hoped (in tbe midst of a
Presidential canvass) to secure Secessia as
an independent power, or to make Slavery
tbe ratios element in tbe old Union. This
was their 'hope,' which cruel Connecticut
baa blasted, and tho Rebels have either to
eonqaer or be conquered.
