Mr.Editor: Allow me to express,
through your columns, the hearty
thinks of this Regiment, for tho hand
some repast they enjoyed yesterday,
from tho hands of Mrs. R. and B. and
their daughters. They not only came
the distauce of eleven miles to oncour"
age the ministers and soldiers with
their presence at the very interesting
meotings now in progress at this'camp,
but also accompanied their carriage
with a two norse wagon, loaded with
apples, peaches, hams, chickens, pies,
bread, vegetables, &c., &o., in abun
dance. Alter the gospel feast of the
morning, the delicacies were placed
Within the church, and tho soldiers
were invited to partake. Of course
they highly appreciated this, ns they
are rarely thus visited by angels in wo
man’s form,
What a contrast did this scone, pre
sent to those of las- week, whore simi
lar wagons, the property of the rich as
well as of tho poor, visited the camp,
and extorted from the meagro purses
of tho defenders of their persons, proporty
and lives, $8 per bushel for peaches—in
one instaneo the g\ft of a benevolent
citizen of the neighborhood—■■and tho
same price for potatoes, $1 pev dozen
for corn, and 25 cents apiece for onions
&c., &c.
These brave and gallant soldiers have
been burning within ftom a sense of
the injustice done them by theso and
Bitch like dealings, on the part of un
worthy Georgians 1 Tho Christian and
patriotic visits of those angels incarnate
will tend much to calm their just in
donation.. 1 do hope, sir, that such
will be the sympathy and hospitality
extended to these protectors of our
Jarms, liberties and lives, that they will
feel, 1 ill the day of conflict, perhaps at
our: very doors, that Georgia, like Ten

Dear Coup,tia: We have been at
this camp for the last fivo days; how
muoh longer wo are to remain here I
know not. but h.-,pe rot muoh longer,
for this has proved to be a very unfor
tunate place for a camp, from the fact
that there is a vre -' deal of poison oak
and ash, whi-ii h.ia poisoned a groat
many of tho men, some of. them se
verely ; are not able id w ,rk and some
cannot sec.
It is reported in camps, that Gen-
Walker has been ordered to rc-port t.o

men are ail anxious to go, for they aro
sick and tired of Mississippi, and do
not entertain too exalted an opinion ot
some of the citizens. News has just

Movement tipofl Chattanooga and Romo, Ga,
Preparations for another Campaign—East
Tennessee to be taken.
Dispatoh to tho N. Y. Tribune,
Cincinnati, Friday July 24, 1863.—
Very late and authentio intelligence
from Gen. Rosenoran’s army proves nil
tho reports of movements of Union
troops upon Chattanooga and Romo to
be entirely unfounded. The main
body of the avmy of tho Cumberland,
inolusivo of the cavalry, is still vesting
and preparing for another campaign
along tho Northern 6lopo of the Cum
berland Mountains. Huntsville has
boon visited but not occupied for any
length of timo by part of the oavalry.
The only troops as yet South of the
mountains are small bodies holding
points on tho Nashville and Chattan
ooga Railroad, as far as Stevenson and
Bridgeport, on the Tennessee River.
Trains from Nashville have been
running this week beyond Dcohoid
am! are expected to reach Bridgeport
by to-morrow. Only one span of the
great bridge at that point has been
destroyed by the rebels. Tho tunnel
neav Stevenson was not injured. Gen
Rosenorans’ headquarters wero remov
ed on tho day before yesterday from
Tullahoma to Winchester. The Gener
al himself is still at Nashville. As
soon as the new secondary basis, nec
essitated by tho recent advance, will be
fully established, and other prepara
tions required by the peculiar character
of the proposed futuro operations com
pleted, Gen. Rosenorans will re-oom
menco active work. The indications
are (hat tho whole army will be again
in raotion-.in the course of next week
Tho country may rest assured that tho
Summer will not be allowed to pass
without the redemption of East Ten
nessee.
flSgr It is a little singular what dif-
event kinds of power, and versatile
influence at times agitate tho north ;
Spirtualism, Bloomerism, Abolitionism
and Millorism seems for the time to
have given way to Irish-servant -girl-ism
the moBt fearful bugbear now abroad
in the land.

Camp'near Morton, Miss.,
July 31st,.1863.
Dear Courier:—Nothing of any im
portance has transpired sineo 1 wrote
you last. Wo have been busy 1 oleariug
up our amp ground and putting it in
good order.. From tho pains • that is
alien with it, one would suppose we
would remain here somo time.
The country hero iB broken and tho
water passable for Mississippi. The
health of the troops aro comparatively
good for the season of tho year. Tho
principal disease is diarrhcoa, and that
iscausod by eating green fruit and corn.
1 have not hoard anything of interest
that could be considered reliable irom
Grant’s army, only from telegraph ro-
ports. Those telegraphic reports seem
to know Grant’s whereabouts, and all
his plans. This may bo so, but I
doubt it. Grant is no doubt making
tho best disposition of his troops that
he knows how, and they will soon turn
up at some point where wo least ex
pect.
I am sorry to sco that some able wri
ters say the enemy will devote tho re
mainder of the summer months to the
rest and recuperation of the . armies,
preparatory to a more vigorous attack
upon us next fall. Tho enemy no
doubt, would have us to think -so. It
will prove disastrout to us, if our au
thorities believe, and act up any such
reasoning. Their recent successes will
stimulate them to movo more active
and euergetio efforts to roll on the tide
of victory. But let that be as it may,
we should bo more active and deter
mined to hold at least what wo have
got, if not able to regain our lost terri
tory and property.
Our armies need reoruiting, and
must he, if wo hopo for peace, for it is
worse than folly to indulge in the hope
that we are likely to receive that pre
cious boon so long as we arc falling back,
or, in other words, on t\e retreat. Peace
under such circumstances would not
likely be such ns we are fighting for.
Reader, would you except it on any oth
er terms?
We look to those who are subject to
conscription for help. Why do they
not act as true- lovers of thoir country ?
Go into the'service without taxing the
government with the expense of send
ing recruiting officers to hunt them up
and force them to do what they know
to be their duty ?
The indications are, all men, regard
less of age, who are able to bear armsi
will be called to enter service. There
is much for us to do, and it behooves
us to redouble our efforts and resolves.
Tlioso at home have a part to act in the
great drama. Winter willsoon be hove,
in all its severity. Our soldisrs are not
fortified against it, and are not prepar
ed to do so. They naturally look to.
wards home and thousands will have to
look in vain, as they have been cut off
from home, by reason of the fall of
Vicksburg. Their comforts must be I
attended to. There is no time to
loose. The Government will doubtles
do her part, and it is to bq hoped that
our friends will not stand with their
arms a kimbo, expecting the Govern
ment to do all. For the sake of hu
manity, “don’t wait” as you did last
fall to be aroused from your leLhargy by
the announcement of the fact that our
soldiers wero marching through tho
snow barefooted, and scarcely olothe3
enough on to hide their nakednoss.—
Go to work and be ready to clothe
them when winter comes. Thero aro
many at homo who have done compare
tivcly nothing, and are worth thous
ands. I hopo they will remcm'eo'r. that
those jaded and worn out soldiers aro
their post, far away from homo
and its comforts and filessings, protect
ing them nnd their thousands, stand
ing as a “wall of fire” betweon them
and the enemy.
Thero aro some who are not expected
enter the service, but their country’i
cause and self interest, should be a
sufficient lever power to impel them to
assist in providing for the wants and
necessities of the soldiers, Thero are
many that will not, and when peaoo is
made, will talk ns largely as any one
about how we did at home.

was imposed upon him. ■ For twelvo

gers, and faithfully served his heloved
country, but alas 1 he has fallen in her
defence. Wo, his companions in arms,
mourn his loss, and deeply sympathize
with his widowed mother and father-
loss l isters, in this their sad bereave
ment. "But we mourn net as those
who have no hope,” for wo fii'ttily be
lieve he has lain down his implements
of warfare, for the power and joys of
Heaven. William was his mother's
only son. A dutiful and affectionate
boy, her hope and stay iti her declin

stroke to hor, and cheerless her homo
where his pleasant voice can never be

May God in His Mercy bind up her
broken heart, and. give hor strength to
press forward to the Better Land, where
there, is no more sickness or death, and
whore her loved boy will slay in her
presence forever.

The late Lruliant Victory op Dick
Taylor.—On yesterday tho President
received a. di>iintch from Lieut, Gen.
Hardee, stating that information had
been received through a respectable
source to tho effect that Gen. Richard
Taylor had gained a very handsome
victory at Donaldsonvllle, Louisiana.—
The account states that ho captured six
thousand prisoners. Taylor seems to be
tho lucky mun of that region. Wo re
joice at a success so brilliant in itself,
and so grateful ns happily turning the
tide of reverses that have lately pressed
so hard upon U3.
An item in the United States nows,
which wo publish to-day, says ; “In the
fight near Donaldsonviltn, after the fall
of Port Hudson, tho 29th Massachusetts
Regiment lost all but 140 men.” This

Losses in the First Revolution and
in the Present War.—A statement of
the losses in the battles of tho Revolu
tionary War is going the rounds. The
number of battles, from Lexington, in
1775, to Eutaw Springs, in 1781, was
twenty three, and the loss on both Bides
18,000. This is seven years 1 This
does not equal by half , tho loss in a
single battle of tho present wav. A3,
many men fall in action now as wero
killed in tho battle of Cowpeus, nnd-wo
call it a skirmish ; more men uro slain
than in the bloodiest battle of that
period, and it is termeR merely a ro-
conn'oisanoe. By such contrasts as
these is tho frightful magnitude of this
our struggle fer independence made
painfully apparant to every mind.
The giants aro in combat now.
