SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER G, 1862.
THE COUNTY CONVENTION : The Un
ion Republican Convention met in Ful
ton Hall on Wedneseay last, nominated
lion. Thaddeus Stevens for Congress,
and Hon. Benjamin Champneys for the
Legialature by acclamation. Speeches
were made by Mr. Stevens and Judge
Champneys accepting the nomination.
The Judge, who was always a Jacksonian
Democrat, in his speech said he cordi
ally endorsed the resolutions of the
Union State Convention, but detested
the address of the so called Democratic
State Convention, as false to every
principle of Democracy. Mr. Stevens
said if elected, he would vote for arming
every man who could aid in crushing
the rebellion, and for taking and selling
every inch of soil to pay for the war.
Yes, abolish everything on the face of
earth but the Union, free every slave,
slay every traitor, burn every rebel
mansion— if these things be necessary
to preserve the principles of freedom to
the world and to our posterity. The
bullance of the Assembly ticket is made
up of Mr. Leaman of the last session ;
Dr. 11. B. Bowman, Neffsville and Na
thaniel Mayer, who was on the Repub
lican ticket last full and beaten by
Abraham Peters John B. Living
ston for District Attorney ; County Com
missioner, Danid Kemper ; Directors of
the Poor. Col. Samuel Shock Leonard

LANCASTER COUNTY SUSGEONS.—The
Washington correspondent of the Ex
press says : Qn Sunday afternoon a
special train left, Columbia, in response
to a telegraph despatch from Secrete) ,
Stanton, asking for 411 available Sur
geons to proceed immediately to the
Capital. to minister to the wounded suf
ferers of Friday's battle. The response
of the Physicians was very prompt,
accessions being made to their Dumber
at almost every static n along the road
to Philadelphia, and thence to Wash-
ington.
Immediately upon their arrival at this
'dace a delegation of Lancaster county
physicians, numbering about 25, de
tailed a committee to wait upon Surg.
Oen. llamMond. and tender their ser
vices to the Government and receive
their appointments. To their disap
poinment the Gen. replied that already
upwards of one thousand had tendered
their services. nine-truths of A.bom he
was obliged to refuse. lie accordingly
gave the 'committee a free transportation
for the delegation to return to their re
vectivo homes at their pleasure, until
again called upon. This explains 'the
oarly return of some of the "Volunteer
ugeons."
Car Somepapers :ay over fifteen bun
tired physicians had arrived at Wash
ington by Thursday last. On Saturday
evening the Secretary of War telegraph
ed Vice Preiident Scott, of the Penn
sylvania Railroad Company, that owing
to the great number of wounded at, the
battle in 'Virginia, Volunteer Surgeons
were wanted, and requesting him to
furnish transportation to alt who would
volunteer their services, to report to
Surgeon general 11amittor0 at Wash
ington. In reSpOnSo CO*IS call, the
following Physicians 014.iiincaster left
in the line yia, llarrisetrg viz : Dr.
John L. Atice, Jr., Dr. 1.1. B. Muhlen
berg,. Dr. P. I.3assidy, Dr. Henry Car
penter, Dr. D. McCormick, Drs. J. H.
Longenecker, Wm. B. Fahnestock,
Thos. 'Ellmaker, 0..11. Markley, and
J. L. Baker. The same request was
telegraphed to Columbia, and Col. C.
S. Kauffman came to this borough with:
the news, when Dr. F. Hinkle , Barr.
Spangler, Esq , Dr. Henry Landis, i J.
M. Erisman and Dr. Brenneman of
Maytown went to Columbia, via York
for Baltimore, thence to Washington.
The patrons of the different schools
will remember that on Monday next all
the public schools will open. It is
hoped that every scholar will be present
to take his or her seat °lathe first day,
as it is utterly impossible to effect a
perfect organization unless the classes
can be completed. The parents will
also remember that according to a res
olution passed by the: School Board,
every applicant for promotion will be
obliged to undergo an examintion, so
that none but those who aro worthy will
bo promoted. This examination should
be held on the first day.
a' Thera was quite a spirited con
test for delegates from this borough,•to
the County Convention, on Saturday
evening last, and had no less than three
disagreeble fights and one man stabed.
All this is the result of some candidates
dealing out whiskey and lager to popu
larize themselves. When will such a
state of things cease in our midst. We
have some persons amongst us who pre
tend to high social positions and yet
persist in encouraging this kind of vag
abondism.
Of Alexander 1.1, EJood, Esq., has
been appcinted CJlleotor of the United
States Revenue Tax, and J. K. Alexan
der, Esq., Assessor, for this county.
THE MIIATIA. ENROLLMENT.—We copy
from the Lancaster Express of Tuesday
evening the full returns of the enrolling
officers, as registered by Deputy Mar
shal Billingfelt. We are gratified to be
able to bear our testimony to the care
ful and efficient mariner in which the en
rollment has been made. Mr. Billing
felt and his assistants, without a single
exception that we can hear of, have
done their very best to make the enroll
ment complete, and we are satisfied that
they have succeeded as well as
,it would
be possible for any equal number of men
to accomplish the difficult task in the al
lotted time. We doubt whether any
other county in the State will be able to
show a more faithful record, or one more
creditable to the integrity and industry
of the enrolling officers and the Deputy
Marshal who selected them and directed
their operations.
We have, in the third column of our
table,,given our estimate of what _each
district will be required to furnish under
the draft, in addition to the volunteers
already furnished—the City, Marietta,
Eden, and Strasburg borough and
township, having furnished a surplus.—
In this calculation we have assumed
that one man out of every three enrolled
would be drafted. We think this is a
fraction too high, but we bays adopted
it. for the sake of round numbers—de
ducting from the third of the total in
each district the number of volunteers
in the service. This result gives proba
bly some three hundred to many in the
aggregate, which, as we showed in our
article of the Bth inst., by another pro
cess of calculation, will not vary materi
ally from two full regiments.

"BROOKE'S STATION,"
Camp Wright, Va., Aug. 16, 1862
Friend Mariettian : Before this reach
es you your readers will have learned
that the 45th has loft its encampment
on James „River, and approached a lit
tle nearer to the scene of strife,
where two mighty armies are preparing
to meet in mortal combat, t 3 decide the
fate of a nation.
On the evening of the first instant
our regiment passed in review before
General Stevens, his opinion of the men
as to material and discipline, was good ;
but - said the arms we had (Harper's Fer_
ry muskets) were not fit to go into bat
tle, hence the reason we are stationed
here instead of taking part in the impend
ing conflict. On Wednesday morni - i g,
August 4th, we marched to the wharf
at Newport News, and after the usual
delay we embarked on the steamer Elm
City, a large and spacious boat; and so
far as the comfort of passengers and sol
diers was concerned, equal to any I have
seen. Among her passengers were Gen.
Stevens and staff. After passing Old
Point Comfort, we steamed up the
Chesapeake. Early on the sth we ar
rived at the mouth of Aquia, Creek,
where we landed. Since .the Yankees
have possession of this important point,
a splendid dock has been built upon the
ruins of the one destroyed by the re
treating enemy. It is accessable through
a narrow channel to steamers of consid
erable draught, and is connected with.
Fredericksburg by rail road. About a
dozen small buildings have been erected
on:the shore, among which can be se-en
a commissary depot, eating saloon c &c.
On the morning after we landed, we
took the cars—an old delapidated train
—and after going about three miles,
stopped at our present station, where
,we formed our camp. Col. Wer.str's
headquarters are at the landing; compa
nies I and K, are with him, Lieut. Col.
Beaver with the remainder of the regi
ment. Our business is to guard that
part of the rail road between Aquia
creek and Potomac landing, a distance
of about six miles. At this place is a
beautiful farm house which the officers
now occupy. The general appearance
of the place plainly testifies that it hEis
once been the abode of lux3ry and hap_
piness. Keen indeed must have been
the anguish of its owner, when he left it,
It is said he died of grief at the pros_
pee.t. The country in this vicinity bears
the same mark of desolation which char
acterizes the soil of the ini•aded and re
bellious South. Little or nothing is
being raised along the railroad ; in fact,
nobody has been left to cultivate the
soil but a few old men and children, and
they earn a scanty subsistance by ped
dling apples, pears, milk, &c., to the sol
diers. Troops are pouring
i iu from all
directions as fast as the cars can bring
them. Captain Haines and several non
commissioned officers are at home re
cruitidg. The Marietta Boys are most
ly in fine health and spirits but want to
contribute their mite to wind up thisun
holy rebellior, which has already filled
cur land with sorrow, and mother's and
widows' hearts to bleed fi.om wounds
which no bairn on earth can ever heal.

Friend Baker: Having intended from
the time our company left home, to keep
up a correspondence with " The Mariet
tian," I now, for the first time, and at
liberty to give you a short narrative of
our journey here.
We left Harrisburg on the 20th in
stant, at 0 r. N. accompanied by William
Kendig and John Crull as far as York,
which place we reached about 10 o'clock
at night, greeted at every corner by the
waving of linens from the ladies who
were assembled in large crowds on every
corner, along our route ; we remained
here but a short time when we again
moved off en route for Baltimore, arriv
ing there at 4 o'clock next morning.—
here our Regiment was detained for
several hours to breakfast at the Balti
more Union Relief Society, after which
we took the cars for the Capitol, arriv
ing there by,noou ; again we were sup
plied with a soldier's ration from the
Government Relief, when we took up
our march for camp rear of the Capitol,
remaining for two days waiting for or
ders, which were to.relieve the 86th N.
Y. from Provost Guard duty in the city
and Georgetown. Three Lancaster
county companies were immediately de
tailed for this duty at the latter place.
We being one of this number, packed
up and marched to our quarters, which
were very good--a large two story brick
building with room enough to make all
of us feel quite comfortably fixed, situa
ted in a pleasant part of the town, with
beautiful shade treesin front,
There is at present part of a New Jer
sey Regiment with three companies of
our own Regiment on guard duty in this
place. Our first guard duty was a de
tail of twenty-five men with our Captain
acting second in command, and Ist
Lieut. as Lieutenant of the guard to es.
cort over one hundred prisoners to Al
exandria, Capt. Denues taking corn

and Robtert Smith of Wrightsville as
clerk for the Quartermaster ; these gen
tlemen are very much liked by our boyF4 ,
and fill their positions nobly.
We have roll call at 5 o'clock in the
morning and nine in the evening ; and
and three times drill every day—morn
ing, noon and evening—dress parade at
3.1- o'clock, P. m. and a regular detail of

"TETE UNION."
GEORGETOWN, August 27th, 1862.
Mr Editor: I take the pleasure of an
nouncing to the subscribers of "The Ma
riettian," of the whereabouts of the
" MARIETTA BRAVES," SO named by the
Patriotic: Circle of that place. I have
not much to say concerning camp life,
as our situation and position is somewhat
more like our residence at home, than
those that are in camps ; but as it will
be a comfort to some of our friends at
home, I will describe our departure from
Harrisburg and our welconle reception
in Baltimore and Washington city. Our
regiment was formed in Camp Curtin,
our figue number is 135, under Colonel
PORTER, who is a very good disciplined
officer in military tactics. We left
Camp Curtin on the evening of the 20th
for Washington city and the hearty and
deafening cheers and applause given us
all along the road by the smiling fair
ones is beypnd my description ; we ar
rived in Baltimore the following morn
ing at four o'clock and formed into line
and marched to the soldiers relief, where
we were received and made welcome to
refreshments by the loyal citizens of
that city, to such as cheese, beef, and
fresh bread; we took the train at 8
o'clock for Washington city, and ar
rived at the Soldiers Rest about noon,
where we again partook of Uncle Sam's
refreshments, such as mess pork-9x14,
crackers with the letters B. C. stamped
- on them, denoting before Christ. From
there we went to Capitol Hill to quar
ter and-relieve the 86th New York, to
act as provost guard in their place,
through Washington and Georgetown ;
on the 23d we were divided into compa
nies and stationed at our posts ;—three
companies were sent to Georgetown,
viz. Capt. Miller's, Capt. Espy's, and.
Capt. Denues. Denues is Provost Mar
shal. Capt. Erisman's to the Central
Guard House and the remainder through
the city to guard Rebel and State pris
oners. There were two hundred desert
ers out of our different regiments in the
Georgetown guard house. On last Sun
day, part of our company, Denies, and
Espy's were detailed to escort 100 of
them up to Alexandria on one of the
boats ; they were the most outrageous ,
out lowed, fellows I ever fixed my eyes
upon ; nothing was too mean for them
to do ; they, made fun at us because we
guarded them with fixed bayonets.—
Some of them had the Government
braeelets on their wrists with a 24 poun
der at the end of the chain ; however we
got them to th eir destination safe,
though they made several attempts to
break guard but failed ; we put them in
a slave pen ; from there they will be put
to their different regiments, and some of
them will, perhaps, be court =dialed.
There was an exciting time in Alexan
dria on Sunday last, Gen. McClellan's
army was coming in very fast, 20,000
were encamped around Alexandria, and
his siege train laying at the wharf.—
There is a very brisk move here on the
Potomac at present, and before many
days from what I can learn from good
sources, there will be one of the largest
engagements ever witnessed on, this con
tinent. Our regiment is nearly all quar
tered on confiscated property; there is
any quantity of Secesh in this
We are in a largo two story brick house,
with ten large rooms, on the corner of
Washington and West streets. Last
evening ourselves and our arms were in
spected by a United States inspecting
officer ; he praised our company highly
by saying to us that we were as good
and hardy looking company, in every
respect, as had come under his eyes for
the last ten monhts. Our Captain pro
posed to his conspany to banish all pro
fane'and vulgar language, which was put
to vote by him to the company, and
carried unanimously. Any dtie now
that disebeys these resolutions - is liable
to double duty. Our commissioned of
ficers cannot be surpassed by any for
kindness; they have the honor and
good will of every man in their charge.
1 will add in behalf of the "Marietta
Braves," that we sincerely return our
many thanks to the citizens of Marietta
and vicinity, for their many kind luxu
ries and necessaries sent us. We have
had several visitors from your place
since we are here. Quartermaster Mc-
Clure of the 45th P. V. paid us a visit
to day ; he says the 45th are all in good
I heart. Our address is :
Georgetown, D. C., box 801,

Creditp will not be given on the

Marietta, Sep. 3,1862.
ifir A very destructive tire occured
in Wrightsville, on Thursday night of
last week. Large quanities of tobacco,
lumber, grain, &e., being burned. The
losses of P. A. & S. Small, Wm. Mc-
Conkey, and Beidler & Gohn were very
heavy, reaching, perhaps, in amout to
$75,000. But for the assistance of the
Columbia fire companies, the loss, would
have been trebled.

egyv Mr. Zell is now prepared to de
liver all•kinds of steno coal. See his
card of prices. The impression has been
that we will be compelled to pay $5

The county will now be districted for

tion should be on the alert to facilitate
