Private Letter from the Maine 20th. Camp of 20th Maine Regiment. Near Fredericksburg Va., Nov. 22. 1862. George R. Davis, Esq. Dear Sir It is almost useless for me to write as I have uo particular subject as the burden of my theme, only “that there is an onward move,”,and once more, “oil to Richmond” is the word. You no doubt have been npprised of the move long ago, and in fact know more of w hat is going on with us than we do ourselves. Since I wrote you last I have done some marching as it is termed among the regiments. I joined the 20th regiment at Warrenton early last Monday morning as they passed through, at which place I arrived late in the afternoon of the previous day. I found that all the sick had been removed from that place and it was to be abandoned. When early morn came the rattling of the long train of wagons was heard resembling the clattering sound that I so oft heard on the reniusula. After the long train of wagons had passed, presently the sturdy soldiers cam? up, and as regiment after regi ment passed by I thought to myself, is there to be any turning back,” and the northern ar my” driven back again to the bank of the Po tomac, and the cause of our country hopeless ly lost? As the grand van moved on in one un broken phalanx, and the men seemed clothed I with the panoply of success, it led me to in- 1 quire whose corps and the ready response came, fighting Joe Hooker’s.” In the eyes of these men I saw a determination to do or die, and became fully persuaded that there would not be any turning back,” but onward, right onward to Richmond was the goal of the am bitious soldiers who were merry as lark in early summer mom. I gazed intently on the regts., as they passed—I saw the gallant boys of N. York,'Pennsylvania, and Michigan, wending their way towards the new base of operations.” Soon came our brave and heroic 2d who have i dbne so much toward building up the reputa tion of the Maine soldiers, and have so oft ex emplified the flghiug qualities of the sons of 1 the Pine Tree State. This regiment was led I by Lt-Col. Varney, who is well known as a soldier and it would be useless for my pen to speak forth praise of so gallant a commander. Next came the Massachusetts boys who have also been the pride of the old Bay Slate; pres ently the 20lh Maine came to our view, led by the young nnd gallant Aines, who has already earned a high reputation; as a soldier, there- i fore, comment is useless. Beside him rode the Lt. Col. who was formerly a grave Prof, in our renowned Bowdoln,—let me predict, that ere this war closes, he will earn for himself as high reputation as a soldier as he has as a teacher XTunr iknan wml,, ___ 'Young as lie may be, be is Ilrown-ed and is ready for service such as his country demands of him. He makes, I am informed, a very ef ficient Adjutant. As the regiment moved forward, I could not resist the temptation to feel proud of it was and had within a short time, traveled over two hundred miles, and been put into an old light ing Corps. Foremost in the ranks, in his proper place, was their Major, who knows full well his duties and docs them with a will; he had, previous to his connection with this regi ment, proved a gallant, consistent, and prompt officer; the mnpire of peace. I do not hesi tate to say that I might well feel proud of this, the 20th regiment of our State. And well we might feel proud of such a regiment and such officers as command it. This regiment w ill earn a reputation like our Maine regiments. I will not mention the sanitary condition of the two 1 regiments mentioned in this letter, but will de- fer the subject until I become more conver sant with it. I assure you, however, that the medical department of these two regiments is well established by aide and efficient surgeons. I cannot close without saying something relative to the Chaplains of these two regi ments—and it will Ire enough, and I cannot say more than that they are Chaplains indeed. The lateness of the hour prevents the fur- I thur extension of my letter, and I will only add that we are now' within nine miles of Fredericksburg, and that we move forward for that place in the morning. I will close by promising you more anon. Respectfully Yours, C. C. Hayes Dr. Mackay is the New York corres pondent of the London Times. Recently he edified the Cockneys with a cock-and-bull” story about the expected abdication of Presi dent Lincoln. Just before the New York election lie wrote: Were McLellan a man like Napoleon III— able,ambitious and daring—he, and he alone, of all the public, men in America, might, with the assistance of the triumphant Democrats,!if they are to be triumphant,) effect a successful coop rl etat. And if something of the kind be not attempted, it will be lor lack of a man, and not lor lack of provocatives, or of latent sympathy on the part of large masses of the people.” MERCHANDISE^ Choice Vermont Butter JUST RECEIVED, and for sale br C.
