LETTEB FIIOM THE MOCSTAIX GCAEDS FROM CAMP CCRTIX TO THE "SACKED SOIL" ITEMS BY THE WAT SEWS IS GENERAL. Camp Chase, Va., August 23, 1862. Correspondence of The Allegbanian Last Tuesday wo bade adieu to Camp Curtiri, and feiads a rapid journey to Bal timore. The scenery along the route is extremely . romantic and beautiful not that the mountains are Alpinic in bight, or the plains of boundless extent, but be cause the placid waters of the Susquehan na, rippling and glancing in the distance as you rapidly pass by, and the verdure covered summits of the ranges of hills basking in the sunlight cannot fail to pleaee the eye of any lover of Nature. -As you near Baltimore, the fine country villas of the residents of that city meet you at every turn of the road. Embow nred in foliage, and beautified by both na ture and art, one would almo3t imagine he could luxuriate here forever,, delight fully oblivious of aught in the world be tide. If you sre a soldier, you get off at the depot, and are marched to the Union Re lief Association of the city, where you get good soldier's supper. In Ilarrisburg we stopped &t the Pennsylvania House, and at Washington we had breakfast in the Government building provided for that purpose, but I must say that at Bal timore we had better "grub" than at either of the other places. The universally ex pressed opinion of the boys is, that the Association is a big thiog for hungry vol unteers. Arrived in Washington city, we were marched to Camp Chase, in-Virginia, five miles distant, where we are now encamped. We are on a portion of Gen. Leu's planta tion. Ilercis where yea can see some of ravages of war fences torn down, acres of woodland felled and now thick with un tlerbrush meadow-land' running to waste. and the country on every side a sad pic ture of desolation ! Forts of great strength dot the surface at every available point, arid ever and anou your ears are greeted with the heavy boom of cannon. Iu the middle of our camp are the remains of a breastwork used some time ago probably last summer a.s a protection to the Union forces. Close by is the road on which that splendid army of M'Dowell's marched forth to Manassas, and on which they re turned discomfkted and bleeding. The men are rapidly becoming accus tomed to camp life,, and if we remain here tny length of time, will soon be in tip-top trim. As a general thine:, the health of the wmpany is excellent. One or two are slightly unwell, but under the cEcient treatment of our Captain, will doubtless soon recover. A word as to our company : When passing through Ilarrisburg, we were re peatedly informed that ours was the finest company thus far that had passed into CampCurtin. . Without being in the least egotistical, I believe the remark applica ble. I have seen some fifteen . thousand troops, anil in no one instance could I find an entire company whose tout ensemble ex relled that of the "Mountain Guards." Do not think, Mr. Editor, that I am self laudatory. Who can for one moment not le proud of our noble little county, and feel a flush of honest exultation wheu he knows that, with only four to five thous and voters, she has sent over two thousand picked men into the field ? The weather here is quite warm, with prospects of a rain. The following are the present regulations of our camp: Reveille at 5 a. m. ; squad drill from o to 6 ; company drill from G to 7 ; break fast j guard mounting from 8 to 0; offi cers' drill from 9 to 10 ; from 10 a. m. to 3 p. m., dinner and letters to sweethearts; $ to 4, squad drill; 4 to ;", dress parade; mppcr; 8J, roll-call; 9, tattoo.

Mullin, Esq., Commis sioner appointed for that purpose by Mar shal Murdoch, of th Western District of Pennsylvania, is progressing rapidly. Sub-commissioners have been appointed to canvass the various election district?, and the indications now are that the job will be completed in a couple of days. The following notice is served by the Deputy Marshal upon every person en rolled : Office of the United States Deputy Marshal, for the countv of Cambria, at Ebensburg, August 22, 1862." To Johr. Doe: Take notice that you hare heeu enrolled as a citizen within the (East Ward) of (Ebensburg Borough,) in the said county, liublb to Military service. If you claim exemption from any cause, the claim will be received und determined by the Commissioner to be appointed for that pur pose for this county, at such time and place as he shall specify by handbills to be posted in said (East Ward .J , Deputy Marshal. Besides the names of those liable to military duty, the sub-Commissioners are also instructed to return the names of such persons from their respective dis tricts who may have previously entered the United States service, whether now in service, discharged or dead, together with the company and regiment in which they enlisted and the name of the commanders thereof. This is done, in accordance with an order of the War Department, that in filling requisitions for the militia all coun ties aud subdivisions of counties may re ceive credit for all volunteers heretofore furnished them. By this means, the au thorities will know exactly where and how much to draft. Those districts which have already fur nished their quotas will not be disturbed as of course they should not be ; while those which have shirked their duty will be required to toe the mark. -Col. John M. Power, of the 7Cth Pennsylvania Volunteers, arrived home at Johnstown last week, direct from Hilton Head, S. C. He has been obliged to re sign his command on account of ill health. The Lt. Colonel of the regiment has also resigned on the same account. Another company the third un der the late requisitions left Johnstown on Sunday morning. We did not learn the names of the officers. Johnstown' is doing nobly ! The new engine house at the Eb- ensburg depot of tho E. & C. RR. has been completed. It is an excellent struc ture, and cost 1,500. Godey for September is received.

These soaps have had a severe trial of over two months in Johnstown, this county, where they stand the ne plus ultra of all soaps, as their sales will prove. Over one hundred family and eight store Tights have been sold, there within the last few weeks. Our citizens now have a chance to try the soaps tor themselves, and if the town is not sol I by Sept. 3d, family rights will be offered as follows: Single rights, $5; Clubs of ten, 4 ; Fifty, and upwards, $3 ; Store rights, 10 each.

Acstin This is to certify that I have been made acquainted with the components of which Roraback s Compound Chemical toilet and Washing Soaps are prepared, ,and I do assert that the combination is an elegant one, and cannot be in the least injurious when used to cleanse the most delicate fabric, and that it may be used with perfect safety and success for all purposes for which other soaps may be used as a cleansing agent. It. S. BUNN, M. D. Office opposite the Mountain House, Ebensburg, Pa. Call on or address the proprietor, J. M. Austin. At Home. We are glad to chronicle the arrival in our midst of Mr. John Rob erts, of Co. A, 11th Penna. Reserves, who has been detailed on recruiting service at this point. He was present at and par ticipated in the several engagement on the Peninsula before Richmond, tmtil the battle of Gaines' Kill, 27 th June, when he, in common with his company, was ta ken prisoner by the Rebels. He under went a captivity of some five or six weeks at the hands of the chivalry, when he was exchanged. He gives a highly interest ing account of Rebel prison life, and al though not charging any direct complaint of neglect or cruelty against them, he still insists that he would prefer entering Rich mond next time in the midst of a victori ous Federal arm v. His health, which was rather bad on his arrival, is rapidly iro proving, and now, after undergoing scores cf privations and perils in behalf of the Union, his is once mere on his "native heath." and almost as good as new.
