Er We find the following letter from
young Huston, to Mr. Geist of our High
School, in the Lancaster Express. This
lad was sent to the Naval Academy by
Hon. Thaddeus Stevens, and is a son of
the late William Huston and a grand
son of Dr. Samuel Huston of this Bo
rough :
"CONSTITUTION," May 16, 1862.
"You see, by the heading of this let
ter, that lam living a life on the ocean
wave.' I tan quite reconciled now ; in
fact, it would be very bard for me to
leave the'old ship Constitution.'
" If you have no objection, I will give
you a briefsynopsis of our daily life here ;
but first you must know that we sleep in
hammocks—pieces of canvass, at each
end of which are eight or ten small ropes,
about two feet long, the ends of which
are brought together by an iron ring,
thus swinging 'twixt heaven and earth.—
At ' gun-fire' (6 o'clock) we get up. We
then have twelve minutes to dress and
lash our hammocks. We must be very
smart here : quickness is considered one
of the essential qualities of a midship
man. We then march under our re
spective captains to the spar deck,
where we stow our hammocks, then pro
ceed to the wash-room and to the boot
black. At 7 o'clock we form on the
gun-deck, and march down to the berth
deck for breakfast. After breakfast we
have prayer, and then we go to our
studies on the gunoleck. On both the
starboard and port sides there are ta
bles running along the whole length,
and at these tables are seated neatly two
hundred young aspirants, from nearly all
p Las of the Union. We study' until 1
o'clock, when we eat our dinner. After
dinner we study until 3 o'clock, when
the ,rest of our time is devoted to the ex
ercise of the body—drilling. We eat
supper at 7 o'clock, and then study un
til Bf, when the drum beats and the gun
fires, and we march up for our portable
beds. We must all have turned in' by
' four bells '—nine o'clock—and be silent
as a mouse, on pain of getting reported.
"I will now tell you something about
our studies. They are arbitrary in their
views and principles here, and I suppose
that my mind will be entirely revolution
ized. They have certain theories which
you must learn, no matter what you have
been taught different—that is, touching
inkier puiuts in studies, not general
principles—such as are always caused by
change of books. The studies are di
vided into classes, classes into divisions,
and divisions into sections. When I
first came here, I was put into the Ist
section, 2d division, 4th class, in Mathe
matics, 2d section in Grammar and His
tory, which is considered a splendid
standing at first. lam now in the Ist
section all round.' But it is a great
way up to the Ist class—you may know
it is when told that they study in that
class all that is required of.a naval offi
cer to know. In our division, Algebra,
History, Grammar and Drawing are the
only studies; but we take large lessons
—2O to 30 pages of History is an ordin
ary lesson.
" In two weeks we have our semi-an
nual examination, when our fates are to
be decided. Ryon stand well, you will
be promoted.; but if you have very poor
' averages,' you' bilge, that fg, get turn
ed off. At every examination some one
is sure to bilge.' I'llev do not compel
you to study—you can read papers and
novels all day; only you must maintain
your position in the class. They do not
keep ' blockheads' here—it is robbing
the government. The way in which
they treat misconduct is peculiarly suit
ed to the institution. The executive of
ficer appoints. every day, two ' superin
tendents '—one for the starboard and
one for the port side—whose duty is to
note down all misconduct (and they are
very strict) that occurs during the day.
They are treated as officers of the high
est rank, and must hand in their reports
every day. The next evening at forms.-
thin, these reports are read. Then you
can write an excuse, explaining your
conduct, and hand it in- before the next
morning. If it is accepted, you do not
get any demerits ;' not you will get
as many as the case demands. The re
port is posted, every day, on the bulle
tin board. It is hardly possible to keep
from getting any demerits—it requires
such a very slight neglect or offence to
subject you to being reported.
Obedience is the grand law to be ob
served here; disobedience of a superi
or's orders is considered an inexcusable
offense. For such offenses as swearing.
fighting, lying, &c., if not carried to ex
cess, you are put under suspension and
confined to the guard-room ; but if you
act in a highly improper manner, you
are apt to be discharged. Only a day
ago, an order came from Superintendent
B—, respecting one of the midship
men, ordering that his word should not
be taken in any matter, till, by a long
course of exemplary conduct, he could
regain his lost character; and that his
parents should be informed, that they
might be prepared for it, if he should be
dismissed. This was for telling a delib
erate falsehood.
" Another requisite here is politeness
to your superiors and equals. If you
pass a superior, or are addressed, or ad
dress one, you must make a proper sa
lute. It would be considered a very
grave offense not to salute an officer
properly on meeting him. I mention
this to show how we neglect this part
of edification in Marietta."
ilfir A great war meeting was held in
Centre Square, Lancaster, at which
County Commissioner William Spenser,
presided, assisted by the following vice
presidents and secretaries:
Vice Presidents—Messrs. Bruner and
Hess, of Columbia ; Doner and Reist, of
the Board of Commissioners; Champ
neys and Burrowes, of this city ; John
Stauffer, East Ilempfield ; Geo. Eckert,
Paradise; Thos E. Franklin, city.
.Secretaries—R. F. Rauch and J. B ,
Markley.
Speeches were made by Rev. F. W.
Conrad, Hon. T. E. Franklin, Judge
Hayes and others. The Express says :
The War Meeting, notwithstanding the
short notice and the unfavorable aspect
of the weather, was one of the largest
and most enthusiastic demonstrations
we have ever had the pleasure of at_
tending. Hundreds were unable to
gain admission to the large Hall of
the Court House, the aisles of which
were packed as closely as • men could
stand. The right spirit pervaded the
mass of those pres'ent, and among
them were the solid and unflinching men
of the county—men who are never seen
in political meetings. During the day,
it had been agreed by the County Com
missioners, afterconsultation with prom
inent citizens of the county and city, that
a grand County War Meeting or Union
Harvest Home should be held in this
city on Saturday week, the 2nd of Au
gust. The official call, which will be
signed by the Commissioners and leading
citizens of city and county, is now in
course of preparation, and will be pub
lished in a day or two. In the mean
time, let the patriotic citizens of the
county prepare for another grand rally
in support of the glorious cause. The day
fixed f or the meeting is what is generally
known as "Harvest Home," an occasion
when our country friends, being through
with the labors of the harvest, generally
visit the city. We have therefore no
doubt that a meeting on this occasion,
if properly managed, can be made a har
vest of good practical results to those
now engaged in recruiting for the new
regiment, and those companies already
in the field from this county, and this
should be the sole object of demonstra
tion."
PARSON BROWKLOW'S BOOK.—The rap
id sale of this book speaks well of its in_
terest sod merits. Already one hundred
thousand copies have been printed, and
the sale is so rapid that the demand can
scarcely be supplied. Seventy five thous
and copies ordered in thirty days, one
firm in Cincinnati ordered forty thous
and copies at once, which is suppo
sed to be the largest single order in the
h!story of the trade. It is published in
fine style by George W. Childs, Philade]_
phia, and sold in this borough at Dr. H.
Landis' Drug and Book Store.
rte' Accounts from other States are
full of encouragement in regard to ma
king up the new call for troops. Illinois
already offers ten regiments, where but
nine were called for. Details from vari
ous parts of Massachusetts report the
full quota 4 made up, and in some cases
a considerable eiceis.. The same results
are indicated in nearly all the New Eng
land States. In New York the country
regiments are progressing rapidly, with
an early prospect of being in the field.
The general prespert is far more encour
aging than it was a week ago, and there
is now no ykobability that any State
north of us will resort to drafting to make
up all that the call demands.
tar Col., McCarter thus describes—
Gen. Heintzelman : "He is a man of
about 52 years of age, small in statue,
with a big head, and a voice which
means something when it says "Colonel
take position on the right, and push
them in." A braver soldier or an abler
General is not now engaged in fighting
for our liberties." Lancaster county is
creditably represented by Gen'l H.
Ur Mr. Hiram Witmer, of Manor
township, while passing slong the old
Safe Harbor road on Sunday night last
was fired at by some concealed person,
and badly wounded in the leg. He was
riding in a vehicle, and the ball passed
through the dasher ere it entered the
leg of Mr. Witmer. The wound is not
dangerous.
0- Capt. Emlen Franklin, of the Lan
caster Fencibles, has been appointed by
Governor Curtin the Commanding offi
cer of the military camp to be establish•
ed at Lancaster. This is a well-deserved
compliment to a popular gentlDrnan.
The citizens of Hartford are much
excited by the discovery that the incen
diaries who have destroyed so many
buildings in a few years are meUibers of
the Fire Department.
sr By reference to our advertising
columns it will be seen that our Borough
Council intend repairing a couple of

TTOLLOWAY'S PILLS AND OINT
MENT.—AII who have Friends and
Relatives in the Army or Navy, should take
special care, that they be amply supplied with
these Pills and Ointment; and where the
brave Soldiers and Sailors have neglected to
provide themselves with them, no better pres
ent can be sent them by their friends. They
have been proved to be the Soldier's never
failing-fi lend in the hour of need.
Coughs and Colds affecting Troops.
Will be speedily relieved and effectually
cured by using these admirable medicines, and
by paying proper attention to the Directions
which are attached to each Pot or Box.
Sick Headache and Want of Appetite
Incidental to Soldiers
Those feelings which so sadden us, usually
arise from trouble or annoyances, obstructed
prespiratien, or eating and drinking whatever
is unwholesome, thus disturbing the heailiful
action of the liver and stomach. These organs
must be relieved, if you desire to do well.—
The Pills, taking according to the pinged
instructions, will quickly produce a healthy
action in both liver and stomach, and as a
natural consequence a dear head and good
appetite.
Weakness or Debility Induced by over
Fatigue.
Will soon disappear by - the use of these in
valuable Pills, and the Soldier will quickly
acquire additional strength. .Never let the
bowels be either confined or unduly acted
upon. It may seem strange that Holloway's
Pills should be recommended for Dysentery
and Flux, many persons supposing that they
would increase the relaxation. This is a
great mistake, for these Pills will correct the
liYer and stomach arid thus remove all the
acrid humours from the system. This medi
cine will give tone and vigor to the whole
organic system however deranged, while
health and strength follow a matter of
course. Nothing will stop the relaxation of
the Bowels so sure as this famous medicine.
Volunteers Attention indiscretion of
Youth
Sores and Ulcers, Blotches and Swellings
can with certainty be radically cured if the
Pills are taken night and morning, and the
Ointment be freely used as stated in the printed
instructions. if treated in any other manner
they thy on in one part to break out in another.
Wheress this Ointment will remove the
formor from the system and leave the Patients
in vigorous and healthy man. It will require
as little perseverance in bad cases to insure a
lasting cure.
For Wounds either occasioned by the
Bayonet, Sabre or the Bullet,
Sores or • Bruises.
To which every Soldier and\Sailor are liable,
there are no medicines so safe, sure and con
venient as Holloway's Pills and Ointment.—
The poor wounded and almost dying sufferer
might have his wounds dressed immediately,
if he would only provide hin•self with this
matchless Ointment, which should be thruss
into the wound and smeared all around it, them
cover a ith a piece of linen from his Knapsack
and compressed with a handkerchief. Taking
night and morning 6 or S Pills, to cool the
system and prevent inflamation.
Every Soldier's Knapsack and Seaman's
Chest should be \ provided with these valuable
Remedies.
IMPORTANT CAUTION !—None are genuine
unless the words " HOLLOWAY, NEW YORK
and LONDON," are discernible as a Water -
mark in every leaf of the book of directions,
around each . pot or box; the same may be
plainly seen by holding the leaf to the light.—
A handsome reward will be given to any one
rendering such information as - may lead to the
detection of any party or parties counterfeiting
the medicines or vending the same, knowing
them to be spurious.
