From Its appearance, we presume, it will now stand without cracking, it having by its previous caper succeeded in cracking an extra thousand dollars out ot the county treasury. . . Dedication.

Dear Sir: We are well and enjoying our soldiering. 7 Last evening we nut ud some tents for another company, which will make the sixth in our regiment.

Our" lull tihiform fs on hand and will be dealt out in a few days We raised a splendid flag-staff. It was cut by the Clearfield boys, is 65 feet high and 8 inches In diameter at the butt end. To-day was pleasant, and we enjoyed it as much as if we had been among the lofty Clear field pines. We werti all examined and' passed as able-bodied men. In town they called us the pine knots from Clearfield county, but pronounced us a very civil set. , itespeetlully yours, P. A. Y. & J. S. J. , Camp Grossman, Oct. 14, 1861. Mr. Kow. This camp now numbers about BOO men in all, and is divided into three parts Our part contains about 100 tents. I don't know how many ara in .the others. We re ceived our blankets, knapsacks, haversaks, &c, and two shirts and a pair of shoes each We put floors into our tents, so that we are comfortably situated. We pass much of our time in singing and dancing, and enjoy ourselves well. We are all well except Miller and Archy, who have been a little under the weather, but are now nearly well agaui. We have had several little mishaps or scrape. in camp. On the 6th October, Samue Cross had gone to the spring to wash. On his returning the guard made a puss at Cross with his gun, who jumped back and caught hold of the bayonet, which excited the guard. The guard jerked the musket out of Cross' hands and struck him three times in the face, cutting him considerable. The occurrence raised quite an excitement in camp for a little while, but it was soon over. Another occurred on the 13th in one of the other divisions of the camp. The officer had placed a guard, with load, d muskets, around the camp, with orders to Bre, after giving due warning, if any one should attempt to pass the guard without per mission. One person made the attempt and after being ordered three times to halt, the guard fired, a buckshot taking effect below the knee. The wound was not severe and the man is getting well. , A number of us one day last week visited the warm spring. It is about twenty-five feet wide and some forty feet long. There is a large hotel there, and bath houses. We did not bathe, however, as they were not open at the time. It is a very nice and pleasant place We have had preaching in our camp on Sun days. The weather has been quite cool, and we have had some frost. We received the Raftsman's Journal which you sent, and we were glad to receive it, for it reminded us of home when we read the news it coLtained. We thank you for your kind- uesi. We are looking for Capf. Ogden and some more men. If the Clearfield boys knew how we enjoyed ourselves they would not hesitate long but would come along at once. I hope the Clearfield boys are patriotic.enough to fill up our company without delay, as we would like to have our company made up from our own county. lours truly, D. G- S. Camp Grossman, Oct. 18, 1861. Friend Row : As I have a little spare time I concluded to write you a lew lines. Our camp is divided into three parts. Ours (Col Murray'.) contains between 400 and 500 men The camp from 1500 to 1700. A company of 60 men arrived last evening, from Dauphin county, I think. 1 understand that Col.. Mur ray's regiment is to fill up and be ready for ser vice by the 15th November, and that be has orders to proceed to Kentucky then the boys are all anxious to march. The weather has been quite pleasant but had some rain dur ing last night. There was a little fuss, between two boys yesterday evening iu camp, which re sulted in one of them being knocked down with a stone he was hurt some but is getting better. Our thauks are due to you for three copies of the -Journal ;" which is a very wel come visitor to camp, and eagerly sought after by all theCIeaifield boys. Yours, J.W.O. Camp Jameson, near Fort Lyons. Va., 1 October, 17, 1861. J S. J. Row Esq Dear Sir : When I wrote you last, I think we were at "Camp Kalorama:" but since that time, we have somewhat chang ed our situation. The present finds us iu "Old Virginia," and the "wish I was in Dix ie" has hecomea reality. We lefffvaloraiua," on Tuesday 12 ro. Oct. 1st, crossed "Long Bridge" and proceeded by way of Alexandria. When we arrived at that place, we halted a boiit one hour, to obtain further orders as to place of destination. During our halt several of our number broke ranks, and paid a visit to the different Groceries, lor the purpose of obtaining some of the luxuries of life of which they had for some time been deprived. In rtue time, orders were received and we pro ceeded to "Camp Franklin," which is situated about three miles West'from Alexandria, and neat "Fort Ellsworth." This Fort is a splend id structure, and in conjunction with other Forts in close proximity, entirely; commands the surrounding country. The ground upon which Camp Franklin is situated, is said to be a part of "Gen. Lee's" Real Estate. If so. the General upon his return will probably slightly disapprove of Uncle Sara's manner of cultivation. During our stay at that place, we buried one of our uuinber, man by the name of Sebastjan Ilogan, Who resjded at New Washington. 'We' buried him' with "military honors," and as the whole company marched with arms reversed to the place of burial, it was indeed a solemn sight. As we stood over the grave of our fellow Soldier, who had left home and friends to fight his countries enemies, but who had thus early fallen a viclm to an over-powering disease, it brought forcibly to our minds the uncertainty of lile and the certainty of death. Four days were passed, uothing occurring to vary the u sual monotany. The same daily dutjes had to be performed, and at evening we retired to our . couch, only to arise in the morning to go through with the same routine, but during the night of the 4th, some excitement, was caused by some person unknown endeavoring to pois on the spring from which theRegiment obtain ed tlje water for its use. Some of the, more timjd begap Jo think that the chances for re turning home were against them. On the mor ning of the 5th, our guards arrested three sus picious looking individuals, who reported themselves as "Deserters from the the South ern army." They were immediately placed io the Guard House, where they remained for two days and were then taken to Washington. What disposition was made of them at that place, I know not. On Saturday the 12th, inst, at about 3 O'CIOCK r. we again receiv ed orders to "march." : So we immediatly struck tents,, packed knapsacks, filled can teens, and went . through with, all the usual preliminaries consequent upon a "flitting," and .were ready in a small space of time; but owing to the non-appearance ot our bag gage wagons we had to delay until 7 o'clock P. M. when we started and arrived' at our place of encampment at 11 o clock P. M. It was a: beautiful evening, and as we : marched a!ong,one thousand of us.our bayonets glisten ing In the light. of the moon, the sight appear ed, grand to me : it being the first march of the kjnd tbat I ever wilqessed. We passed Fort Ellsworth and Fort Lyons on our way the latter ot which is not yet fully completed. Our present encampment in on a farm belong ing to a man by the name of "Mason, said to be a relative of Senatcr Mason," We are three miles south of Alexandria. Since our arrival here, we have been engaged daily in "drilling," an exercise which at first seemed very pleasant, but after the "new is ofl" it.be cdtties Somewhat irksOrtle".'. testefday we re ceived orders to place 40 rounds of cartridge into our boxes, and prepare ourselves to march at a moments notice. We -begun to think that our time was close at hand ; and when, in tho evening, our ears were sainted by the roar of Artillery in a direction nearly south from ns, our anxiety was somewhat in creased as to what disposition was to be made with us. But the climax was reached when in the night about 2 o'clock, orders came for us to march in "Double Quick." This, however, was soon supeiceeded by a request to wait until further orders and we did wait, and are waiting yet for "further orders" never came. To-morrow, some of our men are to be detailed for "picket duty." Our band will soon be ready for service there are seventeen members in camp at present, and two more are expected soon. Some of the instruments are already here, and the rest -wilt be brought from Washington this week. Tho leader is here; his name is Smith, and he resides ii Indiana said to be a' good teacher. On last evening, the instruments here were put in requisition, and "Bonny Eloise," was magni ficently performed. The members were sworn in to-day as musicians, having been into the service prior. All from the vicinity of Clearfield ara well, and apparently like their mode of life. Most of them expressed a desire to be at home during the "Fair," but only for that time. Yours, . C.

Wyman dispersed a body of rebels at Lynn creek, Missouri killing a large number and taking 200 prisoners. Gen. Fremont is at Warsaw, where he is building a pontoon bridge over the Osage river. He expects to overtake Price, who will have to fight or re treat. It is reported that Price has been rein forced by McCullocb, and that Pj?ce is forti fying Osceola. Official intelligence states that two vessels of our fleet at New Orleans had rnn on a sand bar and were somewhat damaged by a rebel battery. No vessel was sunk, neither was one captnred, as reported by the rebels. The rebels are busy erecting batteries on the Potomac,and annoy our vessels mncb. Severa.1 days since they captured a vessel laden with hay, it having broke loose from the trig and drifted near the rebel batteries. A portion of Gen. Stone's command made a reconnoisance to Leesburg, and are now in possession of Ward's Ferry. A rebel force of 4000 are in the neighborhood.
