CORRESPONDENCE OF THE "J0URNA
Letter from Philipsburg.
Philipsbuko, Penn'a, April 25, 1863
Dbar Journal : There is a time in tbe af
fairs of a town or village, when all things glide
along smoothly. No caste tbe high and the
low, the rich and the poor, all associate to
get her. The man who has property and mon
ey, or in other words, the rich man, moves
long on tbe same level with the mechanic or
laborer. All seem to do for the welfare of
each other. At the church, the poor and the
rich occupy the upper seats In common, and
il . . . 1. f . . ..... V : .. : 1
Such a town was Philipsburg when I first
cimo to it. At that time there was but one
lrkk house in the place, and if was known as
"the Trick," which emphasised definite ar
ticle, it waf readily found. The aucient style,
l"g and datibin' was the architecture in use,
ith a pile of atoues at tne end for a chimney.
The bouses all wore an ancient, dilapidated
appearance ; bat good cheor, sociability, and
ni-aristocMcy was the character of the iu
niatcs. There did not appear to be any dis
tinction among the people, allmo'ved in tbe
nie circle. It seemed strange to me to see
all so sociable, for I had just come from a
place that was tbe cspitol of that species ot
aristocracy, generally known as "cod-fish."
But Philipsburg of to-day is different, vastly
different, (mm what it was then." Now, there
re several brick houses, and "the brick" no
l-ngrr designates the only one of the kind.
The old log and daubin' architecture, though,
lrgrly in the majority; I fear will bavo
give way to the "mire and the clay," the
granite and brown stone fronts. Tbe good
Id fashioned sociability that existed a few
Jfirs ago, bas gone the way of things terres
trial. The upper seats at the church are occu
pied by men in sable dress, and by women in
rustling silks and satins. - The line of dis
tinction is as plainly drawn, as the line of the
"ltoror a map ot the world. But this
il.Mige Is not ao much the charact er of the
People, as Jt is the age in which we live, move
"d have our being.
The raj) -has. over tbe mountain taken its
"ay," and 'tis to that greatest of all modern
titilitvrs, that tbe ancient and anti-artsto-ratic
town of Philipsburg u fist throwing off
'fonn.r sociability, and assuming the senii
jU4tic aristocracy. It is always tbe case,
"-cr knew it to fail, that a tow.n in which all
,h old fashioned and time honored sociabili
ty prevailed, was sure to be swept -away on
"is advent of a rail road. So, ve Clearfleld-
if y.iu enjoy an anti-ariatocratic-town and
lple, make the most of it, lor in a few years
11 "ill cease to exist.
The rail-road seems to have run into a
'uar.h, quicksand, creek or coal bank, in the
"unity i f Dunbar, or it may be tbe "green-
ekt''have runout. At all events it does
ro1 TPesr to get any noarer to our town than
"did, or was, soma months ago. When I
rote you in a previous letter, of the Rail

""fere this to chronicle the fact, that the
o who expressed a desire to see a "pair of

The plurality of gents, dressed in Uncle
Sams blue kersey, has diminished considera
bly from our PresqueaUle and North Front
street, tbe two promenades of our city, since
a few day? prior to the 1st inst. There are
some stragglers skulking about yet, and 1 pre
sume there will so.m be a special Provost sent
to bunt them up. I was surprised to see so
many dressed in uncle Sam's uniform of a
private of infantry, driving logs. At first, 1
did not know but I might have been trans
ferred by some genii to Acquia creek, Va.,
when I saw so many "drivers" in uniform,
and that tbe lozs were intended for a pontoon
or for some new base of operations for the ar
my of the Potomac; but on looking about, I
saw that I was on the bank of the Moshannon.
I inquired how it was that so many soldiers
were on the drive. Are they on a special
furlough to drive while the flood is up Tbe
answer was ; no, they are men that have been
discharged "by reason ol Surgeons certificate
of disability." And 1 afterwards ascertained
that such was tbe esse, that they were dis
charged soldiers discharged on account of
sickness ; and here they were, driving logs,
the most laborious and disagreeable work a
man can get at. I will venture to say that, a
log driver endures more hardships, works
more, calls into requisition more strength and
exposure in oue day's driving logs, than any
soldier io the army of tbe Union does io a
campaign. There is something wrong. Tbe
disciples of Esculapius who discbarge such
soldiers from reason of disability, should be
immediately discharged from reason of in
competency. There are hundreds of soldiers
in the hospitals that should be discharged ;
but from some cause they are not, until the
burgeoa in charge is sure that tbe soldier
will die. From what I have been told,
abould not wonder if "greenbacks" did more
o effect tbo discbarge of many soldiers, than
their disability. Yonrs truly, Leeoi.
Letter from Suffolk, Va.
Suffolk, Va... April 12, 1863.
Dear Kow : For tbe past week we have
been in a constant state of excitement, from
A tbe expectation that a struggle for the posses
j I sion of this place was about to come off.
There has been constant skirmishing between
the pickets without any serious results, until
yesterday, when our out-posts were susprised
and some ot the men and horses were captur
ed. Not content with tbis, the rest of the
pickets were driven In by superior numbers of
the enemy. This raid has resulted, so far in
having all the troops under arms, and taking
every precaution to insure tbis point against
any attack, by strengthening the earth works
which almost entirely encircle us. From re
cent movements of the enemy in, tbis quarter,
there is every reason to believe that he medi
tates an attack here, and the capture of this
whole command. There are many things that
have transpired in our midst, within the last
three or four days, to give a tangible shape to
this belief. Some arrests of dangerous, or at
least suspicious persons, upon whom has been
found information of much benefit to tbe en
emy, leads io the inevitable conclusion tha
treason is piaring a aeep game within our
lines at this present time, and it is feared that
the rebels are duly informed of all that goes
on. If I am correctly informed,together with
the general opinion that prevails here, the
first grand more towards the consummation of
the rebel designs, as before mentioned, was
made night before last at tbe Railroad bridge
across tbe southern branch of the Elizabeth
river, between here and Norfolk. t By some
inexplicable means or other the bridge was
disabled, by the abstraction of some of its
bolts, and when the first train up yesterday
morning, unconscious of any thing wrong, was
about to pass over, tbe structure went down
precipitating tbe engine and part of the train
into the stream, killing the fireman, engineer
and conductor, besides bruising several oth
ers. It appears that tbis was part of the plot,
to cut off our communications, and in the ab
sence of the troops sent away, to make a dash
for the occupation of Suffolk. Through the
promptness, energy, and determination of
Gen. Peck, this sebeme of tbe traitors is like
ly to fail, as tbe most ample preparation has
been made to meet any emergency. Since
yesterday at noon tbe troops have been nnder
arms, but up to this evening no rebels have
ventured within reach of tbe guns of tbe for
tifications. The weather has at last got quite pleasant,
and the mud is drying up very fast.
Yours truly, w. r. b.
Another letter from Suffolk.
Suffolk, Va., April 17th, 1863.
Dear Row : 1 will endeavor to pen you a
few lines in regard to tbe situation here at tbis
time, that you may know that, although we
have not had a general fight, we have by no
means given up the prospect of one, at any
moment. Since I wrote you last.we have bad
daily skirmishing at one point or another a
long the line, but so far, no serious casualties
are reported, save .the wounding of a few of
our men ; some perhaps mortally. Tbe most
severe skirmishing has been on our right, a
long the Nansemond river the rebels having
erected some batteries and devoted their real
intentions to effect a crossing, and, if possi
ble, get between us and Norfolk. In tbis, so
far, tbey have been unsuccessful, and I think
we are in a condition now. to thwart any such
attempts in tbe future. We have received a
lil.i... I m. m Lap nt rt. ! n frrt a m an t an that tva
wooden gunboats have been temporsrfly disa
bled, but the present disposition four forces
will obviate tbe necessity of running tbe li
boats so far up tbe river as to make them an
especial target for the rebel's guns, owing to
tbe crookedness and narrowness of the stream.
Their services can lie transferred to where
they will have a wider sphere f or' fheir nia
noeuvering, and where they can be more ef
fective in preventing tbe enemy from enect-
ing a crossing.
lne injury to the Railroad bridge has been
repaired and tbe trains arrive and depart as
regularly as usual. If the rebels fail to as
sault our works in the course of tbe next two
days, it is thought that we will assume tbe of
fensive, and endeavor to drive them beyond
the Blackwater. Failing in tbis, a diversion
will probably be made, in their rear with a
view of giving them some trouble. A suc
cessful move of one or the other of these
plans would be of immense advantage to us,
as it would give ns an unbroken line from tbis
point, via Chowan river, to Little Washington,
N. C, shonid Foster be able to bold out a
little longer. All eyes are turned in that di
rection, since the attack on Charleston has
been abandoned, and there is mucb anxiety to
learn what has become of tbe . little force
there, as we bare had no news for the last few
days or at least none of a geueral character,
from that point. TJie report comes to us to
day, from prisoners, deserters, and contra
bands, that the rebels are being reinforced
from their army at Fredericksburg. If Gen.
Hooker takes advantage of tbis should the
report be correctbe can doubtless make a
successful move, and keep tbe rebs busy look
ing out for afire in the rear.
Tbe roads are rapidly drying up, and as the
most favorable season for active campaigning
is close at hand, much is expected of the Ar
my of the Potomac, and mucb is required of
it to redeem its former prestige. We shall
doubtless, soon see whether our expectations
are to be verified, or whether we are to lose
confidence in it altogether.
Truly yours, w. r. b.
FROM GEW. BARKS' A EMY.
Advices from New Orleans to tho 13th of
April have been recived. General Banks bad
taken the field in person, at the bead of G ro
ver's and Emory's Divisions acd Weitzel's
Brigade, and important movements were in
progress on Bayou Teche, an important stream
which, rising in St. Landry parish, near Ope
lousas, flows south-eastward ly about two bun
dred miles, and unites with the Atchafalaya,
west of Brashear City. On the 11th of April
General Weitzel's forces advanced to Pat
tersonville, five miles up the Teche and fif
teen miles below Franklin, tbe capital of St.
Mary.s parish. At tbe same time General
Grover moved to Indian Bend, a point in
Grand Lake, above Franklin, thus placing tbe
enemy between two fires; but, as the steamer
left two days later,' we have no intelligence of
further movements, except that, on the 12tb
of April, tbe Rebels were retreating, ai.d Gen
eral Weitzel was reported, on the following
day, to be within six miles of Franklin
Later. On the night of the 17th, General
Banks reached VermilliODville. After a hard
fight atVermillion bayou where tbo rebels bad
posted batteries and infantry, but they were
driven from them, with considerable loss on
both sides. Large stores of ammunition, some
Enfield rifles and other arms, and 1,600 pris
oners were captured. The steamer Corine
was also taken; and the rebels destroyed ten
steamboats, two large gunboats aud the Diana,
and immense stores of fcacon and ammuuition
to prevent them falling into General Banks'
hands. About 1,000 horses, mules and beef
cattle were also captured by our men, and an
iron foundry and salt works were destroyed by
them. Tbe rebel fortifications at Bute La
Rose were also reduced.
THE CORCORAN TRAGEDY.
- The true state of tbe facts are being grad
ually evolved, through various channels, aod
are substantially these ; the affair happened
between two aud three o'clock in the morning;
Gen. Corcoran was proceeding from headquar
ters to his command to execute an important
order; the night was very dark ; Col. Kim
ball had no right to challenge, and conse
quently General Corcoran could not, without
a violation of duty, give him the countersign ;
but he did give his name and his rank, and
explained the nature of his orders ; and when
he aske'd Col. Kimball hy what authority be
stopped him, tbe only reply was, "It is none
of your G d business." He then drew
his sword, and, as is believed, laid his band
on his pistol, and advanced in a threatening
manner, using unreasonablebusive and very
profane language. AU tbis time General Cor
coran knew not who tbe man was. and in a
self-defence fired and killed him. General
Corcoran himself has written a letter de
tailing these circumstances; and his state-
raent is corroborated by the letter of one of
his officers who was with him when tbe flair
took place.
More Pirates. By a late arrival from- En
gland we learn that another privateer, the Vir
ginia, took her departure from tbe Clyde, on
tbe7th,with screw shipped at Liverpool, and
another was'on the eve of following her, with
seamen also enlisted in Liverpool. While
these vessels, both said to be prepared for ac
tive service without molestation, considerable
importance is made of tbe seizure by the
Government of a small craft of one hundred
and twenty tons, intended for the use of the
Rebels. ,

tbe law passed March 3d last, and now just pub

It will, therefore, be the duty of the President to
attach to each certificate a five cent government

as early as may be convenient, send to me the An

AVER'S COMPOUND EXTRACT SAR
SAPARILLA. No one remedy is more need
ed in this country than a reliable Alterative, but
the sick have been so outrageously cheated by the
worthless preparations of Sarsaparilla abroad
that they are disgusted even with the name. Yet
tbe drug cannot be blamed for the impositions
from which tbey have suffered. Most of tbe so
called Sarsapari lias in the market contain little
of the virtues of Sarsaparilla or anything else.
They are mere slops inert and worthless, while
a concentrated extract of the active variety of
Sarsaparilla compounded with Dock, Stiilingia,
Iodine, etc., is, as it ever will be. a powerful al
terative and an effectual remedy. Such is Ayer'a
Extract of Sarsaparilla, as its truly wonderful
cures of the great variety of complaints which re
quire an alterative medicine have abundantly
shown. Do not, therefore, discard this invalua
ble medicine, because you have been imposed up
on by something pretending to be Sarsaparilla,
while it was not. When you have used Ayer's
then, and not till then, will you know the virtues
of Sarsaparilla. For minute particulars of the
diseases it cures, we refer you to Ayer's American
Almanac, which the agent below named will fur
