Died At Alexandria, Va., July llth, of
Typhoid fever, Mr. Jackson Potter, son of
John and Mary Potter of Luthersbnrg, Clear-
.field county, Pa.
Mr. Potter was enlisted Into the service of
the United States, Oct. 1st, 18G1, by John W.
Pauly of Luthersburg was first mustered in
to Company K, but afterwards transferred to
company I, where he served faithfully until
a few days before his death. His loss is deep
ly felt by his associates in the army, and, no
doubt, sincerely mourned by his friends at
home. As a man he was highly respected by
all who knew him a pattern worthy to be
copied after by all young men. His qualities
as a soldier are scarcely, if ever, excelled al
ways at his post. lie did his duty to his
country with a willingness that did honor io
himself, his friends, and the regiment of
winch he was a member. May his remains
repose in silence until called forth to be re
united with the happy spirit that has gone be
fore. . W. K. A.
His remains were conveyed home, and in
terred on July 18th, with religions and mili
tary services.
Tue President's Speech to the Armt.
President Lincoln has not the habit of being
prolix in his public addresses. Short, sharp
and decisive is evidently his motto. Witness
his speech in Jersey City, on his return from
West Point: 1 do not come to make or un
make generals." That was all the public
wanted to know just then, and they got the in
formation in a lew words. During his recent
visit to the Army of the Potomac he made an
other speech; this time to tho serried masses
of armed men who had just come out of seven
days' terrific combat. Dismounting from
his horse and monnting upon a rail fence a
roost appropriate platform for Mr. Lincoln
he addressed the army in these words:
Be of good cheer ; all is well. The country
owes you an Inextinguishable debt for your
services. I am under immeasurable obliga
tions to you. You have, like heroes, endu
red, and fonght, and conquered. Yes, I say
conquered ; for though apparently checked
once yon conquered afterwards and secured
the position of your choice. You shall be
strengthened and rewarded. God bless you
all."
In the simple grandeur of this address tho
President recalls one's memory of Napoleon's
appeal to bis army in Egypt; and we have no
doubt that Mr. Lincoln felt quite as proud on
his rail fence as Napoleon did under the shad
ow of the mighty pyramids, when ho assured
hissoidiers that forty centuries looked down
npon them. It is certain that since bis re
turn to Washington he Jeels both prond of
ud satisfied witB the Army of the Potomac
and the state of affairs on the peninsula. The
lusty cheer? which greeted the laconic speech
as the President rode off must have startled
'he enemy, who were in hearing distance.

COBBESPONDENCE OF TILE '-JOTJSNAL.
Friend Row : As one of the few Bucktails
left, who hailed from Clearfield county, 1 send
you a sketch of the weeks fight before Rich
mond which has proved so disastrous to tlx?
enemies of the Union. As I sbjll confine my
self to what I personally witnessed, I cannot
commence earlier than about noon on the
2oth of Jane. Our regiment, with the 5tji Re
serve Infantry, was on picket near the Vir
ginia Central railroad, where it crosses the
Chickahominy, when onr Cavalry pickets were
driven past from Hanover Court House, re
porting tho enemy as pressing our right fl-tuk.
Leaving their knapsacks and haversacks, the
Bucktails deployed three companies as skir
mishers, leaving the remaining three with the
6th as a Reserve. This was considered a suf
ficient force to cluck the advance of a squad
ron of cavalry and regiment of Infantry which
was then the reported force of . the enemy.
Company K Capt. E. A. Irvin, Co. D Capt.
Jewitt 'and Co. B Capt. Wistar, were sent to
reconnoitre; but found, instead of the num-.
bers reported, that they had to contend with
at least division, who had advanced so as to
completely surround them and cut them oil
from any communication with our camps, ex
cept by fording a swamp which was consider
ed impassable. I was on the alert, and early
in the engagement informed Orderly Sergeant
I'atton Bard that the enemy were coming in
force, and ho left to notify Capt. Irvin. This
was the last I saw of him or the company,
though I have since learned from rebjl pi isom
ers, that the Ciptaiu witiiod others were in
Richmond. Accompaning Major Stone who
was in command, and whose m ire h id already
been struck by a ball, we hastened to notily the
other companies : when the enemy appeared
in force on every side of us, and amid a show
er of ball wo sought a3 a last resort, to cross the
swamp in which we succeeded, though with
tho loss of our horses (who were botli wound
ed) and part oi our clothing. After two
miles travel on loot and all fours we readied
the camp.
The oth, with the remnant of our boys, were
soon in the rifle pits (supporting 8 pieces oi
rilled cannon which had been hurriedly placed
behind the breast works. Seaicely Here we
in position when the fields in front were cov
ered with the enemy, who opened (ire upon
us with 12 pieces of artillery, and then began
one of the most terrific fights ever witnessed
by those in our camp some of whom had
been in the Mexican, some in ihe Danish, and
others in the Crimean campaigns. The natur
al advantages of position wore equal, but our
rifle pits, only completed tho evening before,
served as a shelter to our men. It is useless
to attempt a description of the fight as well
try to paint the day of judgment. The enemy
fought like Goliah, conlident in their num
bers ; but they were laid low by ball and shell,
grape and canister, like wheat before the reap
ing machine. Acres were covered with their
dead. For a mile, along the road across the
swamp to Shady Grove church, one could
walk on their corpses without touching the
ground. In their desperation they attempted
to cross the swamp and carry our works by
storm, but hundreds of the in were mired and
slain within 40 yards of our guns. Thus till
after uiue at night the light continued both
sides assisted by artillery and infantry in oth
er directions vht,n it ceased, and the men
lay down to die, or with straining- eyes and
open ears waited to catch the first Minptoms
of conllict. The groans of the- wounded and
dying would have waked anything but- the
dead.
The loss among the Bucktails was very small
owing to their shelter, and the incessant fire
of artillery by which they were covered So
uninterrupted were cannon shots that the
vents of the guns were burned badly, and a
lighted brand had to be used to touch them oil
About sundown Adjutant Hartshorn, who had
taken his place in the rifle pits, was seriously
wounded on the crown of the head by a por
tion of a shell which burst over him. He
fought not only for the flag and the Union,
but to revenge the loss of the Clearfield men,
whom he deplored. A braver man, a better
soldier, or one whoe loss was more, sincerely
regretted by those who knew him, fell not
that day. At last accounts he was stil! living.
On Friday morning, sooi after 3 o'clock,
the work of death again commenced. Ag dti
and again were the enemy repulsed with fear
ful loss. When the orders were given to fab
back to Gaines' Hill. This was about 8
o'clock. For nearly an hour the men were
urged to fall back, but still tlia worK went on.
The enemy were gaining nothing but losing
everything, mid a new regiment only marched
before our rifles and cannon to be deciuiinat
ed before they were withdrawn. Some of our
men paid dearly for not obeying the order, to
fall back, by being captured. Step by step,
and hand to hand, the fight was continued, as
tho enemy wished to renew it. At Gaines'
Hill each side was reinforced, the enemy far
outnumbering us, and in the battle that ensu
ed they fared much better than in that of
Thursday. Both days their courage was kept
up by whiskey of which almost every man
had a supply in his canteen, and under its in
fluence they fought with desperation. The
Piirnaare was fearful. Tens of thousands lay
in their gore and trampled and crushed by the
advancing am retreating forces. Our men,
at dusk, were giving way, exhausted for taut
of food which, if they had with them, there
was no time to eat worn out by fatigue, and
in many instances short of ammunition. At
this auspicious uiutivnt .Meagher's Irish Bri
gade came up, and with tho bayonet regained
the ground lost, aud kept the battle field till
tnoruing.
For several days before the fight commenced,
Gen. McUlellan "had been shipping stores from
Wiiite House to this point on the James Riv
er, and on Saturday the order of falling back
was again resumed. Seven thousand wagons
had to follow one road in single file, and not
one of these, loaded with stores, was abandon
ed, lost or destroyed. A portion of tho pon
toon train was abandoned, ifter being render
ed useless to the enemy and the ordinary dis
utilities of such a caravan would more than
cover all the loss. Tho stores, ammunition,
&c, destroyed, would not amount in dollars
and cents to the wholesale cost of the raw ma
terial for a breakfast for tho army in front of
Richmond. To say that such an unwieldy
train reached its destination in safety, when
the enemy wanted and needed the supplies, is
sufficient to prove that the "front was chang
ed in the face of tho enemy" and that the
"movement" was not a rout nor retreat, but a
well planned and well executed "strategic
movement," the result of which will satisfy
every f riend of "the Union, the Constitution
and the Enforcement of the Laws."
In the retreat our rear guard had repeat
edly repulsed the enemy. On Monday the
Pennsylvania Reserve were again in tho front
of the battle, and for 8 hours did their duty.
It one could only know where tho safe place
was in action, it would bo well occupied ; but
during tbeso long 8 hour's the only safe place
was "at your post." In front tho enemy's ar
tillery ,on our left the enemy's artilery, on our
right the enemy's musketry and sharpshoot
ers, but in our rear our own artillery and the
gunboats, and the signal flags which lold what
"Georgy" wanted while ho himself looked on
and directed all were striking objects, bnt
did not tell where one would not be hit. Tho
only thing to be dons was to obey orders,
"trust in God," and "pitch in." But the
most glorious victory was on Tuesday, when
Gen. McCIellan commanded in person. 'We
were again aided by onr gun boats, and lor
mx hours the battle raged, and, at, the expi
ration of that time, tiie enemy were licked
lair and square. Their loss in 'six hours must
have been much more than 1000 men per honr.;
1 saw them make breast works of their dead,
and acrvs were covered with the grey coat?.
Onr gun boats are a -great institution, bnt
the "monitor1' is the cap-sheaf of all. She
looks like a dog raft, with around plank shaD
ty big enough for her crew to cook or sleep in.
Tako the whole "movement" together, it
beats anything I ever read, about. . Our loss
was immense, but nothing compared to that
of the enemy. We are now completely sur
rounded by gun boats oa three sides, aud our
front does not present a very inviting aspect
to secesh. I do not think the war is over.
It -will take sometime to crush rebellion, but
,i( Treason wilt go dorcn."
The Pennsylvania Reserves have lost heavi
ly. Our General, McCall, was bounded and
captured after vindicating his own leputation
aud sustaining that of the State. Gen. John
F. -Reynolds commanding our Brigade v. as
wounded and taken prisoner while in qiust of
reinforcements for our regiment. His aid,
Adj't (ien. Kingsburry, was also seriously
wounded, and is dead or captured. Oar btave
Major was on his third horse on Friday after
noon, and if tho Bucktails deserve any portion
of the praise which has been lavished on them,
it is owing in a great measure to his good
sense his military accomplishments and un
questionable courage. Do not suppose that
the Bucktails did all the fighting, or that tho
Pennsylvania Reserves weio the only heroes.
Friends and foes all fought as much", I hope,
as they will ever be called upon to do during
their lives.
1 give you hurriedly my recollections in
part of the 8 days before Richmond, which 1
will forget sooner than the brave fellows!, men
and officers with whom, I have so long been
associated. Though not with the regiment
now, I am stil! proud of the "domestic plume"
anil the brave fellows who so nobly have car
lied it through "the battle and the breeze."
Every ollieer did his duty. There are but lew
left. My warmest and nearest friends are
dead or captive, but still there are men whose
cheerful, brave and gentlemanly conduct, will
always he remembered. In camp, at ihe mess,
in bivouac, Or on the inarch, as well as in the
field of death, they won still tho same noble,
big-hearted friends.
I should not forget to mention that Captain
C tlall, our Division Quartermaster who had
charge of the train, by his coolness and pres
ence of mind saved much that' would have
otherwise been lost, and d ty and niirht chang
ed front of the most unwieldly portion of the
army with skill and promptitude, i'eace to
the ashes of all f lie brave who fell honor to
the wounded and disabled and due praise to
those who so nobly have achieved a victory
worth more than -the mere possession of any
city. The past ten days haw proved that our
leader is competent, our men brave, and (hit
what wo undertake will be accomplished.
God comfort those who mourn in Clearfield.
Surely they have reason to rejoice in their
sorrow for their sons, brotheis or fathers,
have died or suffered like men for the right.
When next I w rite to you, ."Richmond will
bo onrs;" and the Bucktails under Col. Mc
Neil, who has now joined them, and is in
command, wiil not disgrace their friends.
Yours, "Bccktail."

Ma. Editor : Having heard that Wm.
Lightner of Glen Hope, had been accused of
cowardice, at the battle of Fair Oaks, I would
just state that the charge is unjust. Mr. L.
was as far in the advance as any other man of
the regiment he was wounded on the battle
field, and I assisted him in tying it up. I was
also wounded about the same time, and Mr.
L. aided me in binding up my wound. Our
company, D, lO-'nli regiment, went into the
fight with VJ men, and held their position
until 2G of them were killed and wounded
so. I think, no cowardice is justly attributable
to 'ither tho company, or to individuals be
longing to it. Yours truly,
A Wounded Soldier.

Ma. Editor : The lollowing preamble and
resolutions were adopted by the Clearfield
Baptist Association at their late session in
Curwensville, which, as a sample of their feel
ing as a religious body in regard to the pres
ent rebellion, if you please, you may give
publicity. Clerk.
The members composing the Clearfield Bap
tist Association, of 1'ennsy I van ii, at their an
nual meeting in Curwensvilh;. June loth and
14th, 18G2, deem it incumbent on them as pat
riots, and not foreign to their sphere as a re
ligious body, to give their public expression
of sentiment in reference to the present stu
pendous crisis through which the nation is
passing.
Resolved, That we regard tl.e war now waged
by I he national Government, to put down the
unprovoked and wicked rebellion that liasVis
en against it, and to establish the reign of or
der aud law, as a most righteous and holy one,
sanctioned alike by God and by all right-thinking
men, involving onr v -ry life as a nation,
and everything precious depending on that
life, and related most intimitelyto tho pro
gress ot civilization throughout the earth.
Resolved, That we believe the institution of
slavery, as a political power, to have been the
piincipal cause of tlm attempt to destroy the
Government, and that a safe, solid, and lasting
peace cannot be expected short of its complete
overthrow.
Resolved, That we tender to tho President
of the United States and his associates in the
Government, through our Representative in
Congress, Hon. John Fatten, our hearty con
fidence, sympathy, and support, with the as
surance of our fervent pray trs that the same
Divine hand which has so manifestly guided
them in tho past may lead them on to the full
and triumphant establishment of the Union,
justice, and liberty, over the whole country
and among all ranks and conditions of its
people.
R'laolced, That a copy of this preamble and
resolutions be sent to our Representative in
Congress, signed by the moderator and clerk
of this association. Tuosias Van Sooyoc,
James Rollin, Clerk. Moderator.
We observe that the above preamble and
resolutions werepresented to the President of
the United States, on July 12th, 1SG2, by Hon.
John Patton, of this Congressional District,
with a few appropriate remarks.

During late years, the public have been misled
by large bottle3. pretendjtog to give a quart of
Extract of Sarsaparilla for one dollar. Most of
these have been frauds upon tho Hick, for they
nt only contain little, if any sarsaparilla, but
painful disappointment has followed the use of
the rarious estracta of Sarsaparilla which flood
the market, until the name itself is justly despised
and has become synonomius with imposition and
cheat. Still we call this compound Sarsaparilla,1
and intend to supply such a remedy as shall res
cue the name from tho load of obliquy which
rests upon it. And we think we have ground for
believing it baa virtues which aro irresistible by
the ordinary run of tho diseases it is intended to
cure.
