Friday 31<>riiiiiji". • ! * lsi<w dir Crop* —The Prospect. | Tlie fanners of thia section of th* State I have never been in better condition than now. The Wheat harvest has been abundant be yond precedent The Oat crop now nearly (secured, is a full one, better than for several years past. Ine season has been favorable. The dry weather of the spring and early part of the summer has enabled the fauueis to keep the corn an d c< tton clear of grass and. secure without loss frcm bad weather tl.e wheat and thus far the oat crop. M ith sea sonable show, is the yiel i of corn w d be large as the dry weather 1 as ■enrecly at all injured it. W ith a good and full cron ot j corn, our farmers will be tins year in te. iter condition than we have ever known. Lsuab.'. when prices of pr 'duce are uigh it is because the crops are short, and the farmer b»s lit tle to sail. W aen he has an abundant surplus prices are h'v and iitt’e money can be real ized from sales el large quantities ot produce. But this year, with a good corn crop ot •which there is every prospect, the farmers will have a groat deal to spare and will be rd 'e to sell at I igh t rices. Atlanta liitM.lgcncer. Mr. C. G.

Mr. Eddor.— AVhon 1 wrote you. on Thurs day. 1 had no idea that we should so soon break up Camp at Harper's Ferry, although confident that some event was ab mt to trans pire, which would materially change the pro gramme, as nimke.l out at the week's com mencement. At an early hour on Friday, we received orders immediately to strike tents, and to hold ourselves in readiness to march at a moment’s warning. This order created considerable excitement in camp, and a hun dred rumors and conjectures were exchanged as to the emergency and policy which had prompted so sit l ien a course. But conjecture was all the pabulum upon which curiosity had t > feed, for so secret had been the cmn eiis, that scarce a man iti the Regiment, save the Col mid, was aware of what was to be done, or where we were to go. Shortly alter l.reakl'ast, however, this was in pari appeased bv a tremendous explosion at tee i errv, sue ; eee.le 1 bv a dense eolnniii <d si:n>ke, w' ich increased m vobnn ‘ as it rose toward the towering mountain peak on tlie Maryland ! side, and mingle I its Llaolciess with tl.e ■ tiansi arent clouds, which seei-.i - ! at ti'.m’s ; but part of the frowning eli’l's. This was 1 oeeasioiie 1 by the blowing up of the railroad • Bridie ci’ the Baltimore A Ohio Co., aero-- the I’otmnae, a magnificent struetuic, ain’t which cost an immense I'utune to e.mstru. t j it. Shortly nl’.er this explosion, v. liieli was ; greeted by tlio’.ist.nds of cheers from the nu merous surrounding camps, the woikofde I stroving the Armory buildings, which eon- 1 stitute the greater portion of th • Ferry prop er. was commence I: and all day long the flames continued to spread, attended by the sm. ke and crashing timbers incident to such wholesale destru -ti.m Not a, vestige of tl.e old United States property was left unseatli ed: and by night, the sufio presented, was one magnificent ruin. Wo remained here until next morning, although no tents v,ere again pitch al—-our nn n sleeping with their blankets on tiie ground, and their arms ready for instant u-e. At an early h utr on S itrnr ay in wti’ng, the order was given to march: and so.m the Im - tie of our camp gave place to quiet, as Re giment after Regiment defiled along the turn pike lea ling to ("narlestown. I gave yon a brief description, in my l:.-t letter, of the sph-ndid view which our pr eessi.m pre.-ented this day week; in our march to V> inehester, I really thought it a splendid view—an l it was.

I had seated myself but a short time ye ter lay, in the pleasant grove where we were encamped, to write you a good letter, confi dent that we should remain until next mmn iiigjbnt presto, change. 1 iiad just time to get fairly under way, when the sudden order was given to strike teti's arid be ready to march in ten minutes. Away went pen, ink and pa per; my knapsack was packed, with blanket and matres-, and allhongh upon the sick 'isc, and requested to ride, I was s ion in lino anti tru iging along tlie dusty road, with the wh de force, in directi >n of M irti.isburg. This sud den change in the day’s programme, was occa sioned l-y the reported advance of some IS,- 000 Federal troops ; but the dav’s march ’ • • ” I brought us within a few miles of that place, - without a trace of old Lincoln's hirelings.— : l ii s morning we wire s. at it> line, ready I r marching ord .is. Previous to the order, the <J> 1 in Is of t'ne Georgia Regiments, Colonels Gartrell ami Fa-tow, ad dr ■■■slid their respec tive divisions, in words of fervent el "ptence, exhorting their men t > maintain lite dignity and bravery of soldiers, and to du horn r to that proud o'.l State from which we imik Wc were, it was told vs, in what might Le term ■ 1 tlie enemy’s cmintry: a id ere an hour, or at Lest during the day, we might expect to encounter him. Col. Gartrell was pecuiiarlv eloquent. He would ask no man to go whore he would not lead—all lie wanted was, that ■ his regiment would follow; and although lie 1 was under superior officers, he would be in I immediate command of’ us, his soldier fts ildrcn, i ready to share alike our victory or diPe.it.— : One wild shout went up from the boys of the i 7th “Lead us on—we’ll follow !” i A forced march until near sunset, however, brought u; to this camp, w thout ci.counter- I ing tiie enemy, or hearing of him, save that he had retreated to the Maryland heighlsat Williamsport—thus disappointing many ot 1 our boys, who are really ‘spoiling for a fight!’ In our Regiment there is a good deal ot i sickness, at present —nothing however, <d‘ a ' serious character; but there are few who do ' not suffer from the fatigues of march, and guard duty. Our immediate neighbors in camp, arc the 11 .swell boys, among whom your readers will ail recognize tho-e glorious 1 fellows, Capt. King, Lieuts. Dunwoody, Bish op and Wing. Ben. Bishop, in his office is getting along admirably; strict in the dis charge of his duties, and at the same time kind and attentive to his men. Joe Lowry ! and Bob Griffies arc w< II and apparently con ' tented with camp life. Newt, llcggie has been transferred, at his request, from the,Ros well Guards to the M.iiintaineers, and is in ■my mess. There are so many familiar faces i surrounding us all in camp, that, with all the | hardships which we are compelled to undcr | go, it is difficult to realize the fact that wc I are many hundred miles from Mar.elta.— i Serg’t. Brock, Lorn Downs, Scott Br..wn, Win. Hudson, Orderly Hodge, and .Sergeant Weaver, are slightly indisposed from our re peated forced marches. Where we go to this morning, the 18th, I cannot say, but shall j keep you advised. Wc received the Advo- j cate, of the 11th, in camp this morning, but 1 there was not much to interest us.

THE BATTLE AT BETHEL CHURCH The following comments upon this battle wo take from tlie Richmond i-i ■■ur.incr. It so express <mr fully own views, that wc adopt it I as our own. Imlce 1. it will do fouii't to contain opinions already 1 rid b'd’oreour read ers. relative to mutters in Virginia.

Here . ! tne policy of retr.'.’.t was I >r the first time'.it I | aside. What may be this General Magruder’s I merits, either us a man or an < fticer, the writer of this is really ignot ant: but thus much will forever be sui'' for him —that he was not wanting to the ueeasion : that i:c did this Woik and hit this blow straight and square: that lie first turned the hatefu! current of retreat and sent the first gleam of sunlight through that somb ’e shadow which has f r somo time past hung over public opinion in the Smith, to an extent which even this news paper, in general an exa -t represeirtitive of popular sentiment, did not care to put in Honor those to whom honor is due. AU mtr tro’pa appear to have behaved nobly at B:the!,bat ti;e h m >rs of that day are clear j iy due to the splendid .egiment ofN irtliCar- I ol na, who e charge of bayonets decided it, 1 atul presaged their cm duet on many a more i important li dI.
