not only to the soldiers, but to the good cit

men, and children in this land of ours, for
their devotion to this glorious cause, and I
say this with no malice in my heart towards

OFFICERS AND: MEN OW COMPANY
120th RiOIMENT PENDIA,' VOL'S :—lt. has
been made my Welcome duty, by the Ladies
of Washington Township, a delegation of
whom are here to enliven this occasion, to
present you a beautiful. Stand of Colors in to
ken of their personal regard and the lively
interest they reel in the glorious cause in
which you are enlisted.
Soldiers! You have volunteered in the ar
my of the Union ! You have grave duties be
fore you. The honor of the community froi
which you come, the honor of the State you
represent, are in a great-measure reposed in
your hands. The safety and honor of the
Republic is to be tested on the coming fields
of' battle. The - pieblein of the nations exist
ence is there to be solved. • On those bloody
fields, -if you are permitted to do ao, you are
to carry, this flag. Let it never be dishonor
ed. Let it never be trailed in the dust. It
is in itself' a beautiful flag—bearing on con
verse sides the arms of the Union and the
arms of Pennsylvauia—the Nation and Key
stone of the Federal Arch, forming a grand
combination; and more than this it comes
from those who will watch your advancing
footsteps with breathless anxiety, and • who
will pray for your safety with earnest hearts.
You are portion of a "grand • army" of
Pennsylvania; and you and we all have cause
to be proud of our State. The grand out
pouring of her hundreds of thousands has
astonished the nation and made its enemies
quail.
'fake this flag: hear it in front of your
columns; and when you return home, as Goti
grant you may, bring it back with you and
let it be cherished sad preserved; and han
ded down to posterity, as a valuable relic.
Lieut. Colonel Rowe respond on behalf
of the Company: Sir—Company "E" have
delegated me to , thank you, and through you
the Ladies of Waynesboro, for the present
they have made us. This flag habeen
presented from Waynesboro'. That name
calls up a thousand pleasant reccollections!
It comes from home. That word alone would
be sufficient to recommend it to our care and
guardianship. It comes from a place called
after the immortal revolutionary hero`\ 4 lllad
Anthony," and his noble example will teach
us that, having gone forth to battle for lib-
"Tr' l ""'"7l , I I i 3. & pre
sen ta tion to day seems to revive the "days of
chivalry. With this flag at its head, Com
pany "E" will go forth, to battle not only
for the honor of the state and nation, but
also for the honor of its lady-loves.
The ladies of Waynesboro have always
been formest in their works of benevolence
and of patriotism. They, have furnished
invaluable aid to the Sanitary commission—
and food and conveniences and delicacies to
the sick. As their last act of patriotism
they present this flag; and on our part we
pledge our lives that it shall be brought back
from the wars, it' not with honor, at least
without dishonor. Company 'E, is the color
company. Its members came to fight for
thehonor of the nation's flag, and although
this is a company flag, it is still the Stars
and Stripes.
We take this flag, with grateful acknowl
edgments, and when we return home, how
proudly will it wave, as we march through
your streets! W'e will then be again at our
homes with your approving faces around us,
and we will bear that flag through your
midst without a blush of shame.
Me Rebel Army.—All accounts we have
of the rebel army on the Potomac, says the
Baltimore Clipper, leads to the belief that
it is in a terribly shattered condition, hard
pressed for food and munitions of war, and
the impression begins to be entertained that
it is already sending off its heavy guns to
wards Richmond preparitory tea retreat to
that place, if they can find any road not
blocked against them, or to Staunton. It
is credibly stated that the loss to their army
since its leaving Richmond to attack Pope,
and including their defeat at Antietam, is
not less than 60,00011 hi killed, wounded,
prisoners and deserters. From various sour
ces we have assurance that the stampede of
deserters is enormous—five thousand were
estimated to be in Winchester at one time
and there wore not soldiers enough at com
mand to attempt to intercept the deluge, the
most of them making tracks for home; but
many are coming over our lines. It is rath
er doubtful, we think, whether their army
will make a stand against McClellan on the
Potomac, but as soon as they find hini ready
to move they will probably get a start of
him. In that ease, the army will be either
captured, or will melt away before it reaches
Richmond.
