COMMUNICATIONS.
Letter Ifom New Orleans.
The following extract from a young man in
the 12th Regiment, to his mother in this city,
w hich we are permitted to copy, gives a graph
ic and interesting account of an atlairin w hich
a portion of that Regiment participated.
New Ori.eaks, La.. June 20th, 1802.
I wrote you last Monday from Lakeport, to
inform you that I was bound for parts un
known. and not knowing as you would hear
from me again, for at that time things looked
dark; on account of our delay which gave the
rebels a plenty of time to receive information,
and reinforce. But we have aceoinplished all
that we undertook and have returned without
losing a man. Shortly after w riting you we
were ordered to emliark on board of the steam
er J. Morgan, Brown, after which two compa
nies were transferred to the steamer Grey
Cloud, and also a squad of sailors with two j
heavy guns. Our boat carried one section of the
4th Mass., Battery, consisting of two lbs. pieces
rifled. It being late in the evening when we
got every tiling aboard, we spread our blankets
on the deck and slept until 3 A. M.. when we
east our lines from the wharf and startl'd on
our expedition, accompanied by the gunboat
New London, and river boat, Grey Cloud. We
had a pleasant passage across Lake Ponchar
train, and arrived at the mouth of Pass Mau
chac, where we formed in a line,the Cloud tak
ing the lead, the N. L. next and we last, we
sailed about half a mile when we came to the
island, and procedcd up the north pass which
is very narrow, and ci joked as a snake. The
scenery was wild, and romantic, it being an
impenetrable swamp on the Island, and main
laud, with a heavy growth of trees, wild flow
ers and palm-leaf. We proceeded slowly ex
pecting every minute to run afoul of some
masked battery. After we had gone part way
up, we came to a place just wide enough for
the X. L. to pass. She carries 5 heavy guns;
everything went on smoothly for a short time,
when we were saluted with a large rifled shell
which passed through the X. London's rigging,
cutting off one of the chains which supports
her smoke stack, and exploded the other side
of us. Each boat then opened Are, ignorant
of the position ofthe Battery, which was splen
didly located to fire on us, as we came round
the bend, but we came to fight, and not to run.
So we kept right on as though nothing had
happened until we came in sight of the Bat
tery when the X. L. gave them a salute with
her largest gun which passed over one of their
guns and struck the Railroad Bridge, making
the wood and iron fly in every direction; at
the same time we gave them two 12 lbs. pills
which started them in double quirk time on
the retreat, which they executed handsomely.
The boats then run into the Bridge, bow on
the X. London striking first, her officers ami
crew started for the Battery armed to the
teeth, and planted the American Flag on it.
The two com|Kinles from the Cloud keeping in
pursuit, and tiring on the run. The rebels
took to the Swamp, and our boys returned to
the Battery spiked, dismounted the guns, (of
which there were two 32 lbs.) burned the
wheel's and carriages, brought all of their
camp equipage, and then demolished the bridge
by ripping up the track and burning the wood
work.
During that time, two companies from our
boat were sent across the island to find the
other lotteries, and take them from the rear on
the railroad, which is built in a canal through
the swamp, and rather dangerous walking over
the sleepers for 2 and a hall miles. After they
had started, 1 was ordered to take a man witli
me and take charge of the wounded. So I
loaded my pockets with bandages, Ac., and
started, armed with my sword, which I ground
before leaving home. I overtook them about
half way across, and went in advance with
'apis. ovppieiou aim n inter, with the skir
misher*. When we got most to the bridge,
which was boarded, the order was given to fix
bayonet and charge, which was done in good
order. But they were too smart for us. When
we got in at one end, they were leaving at the
other, and making tracks for the woods. Out
hoys gave them one round but did not stop
them, the bridge being 700 feet long. We
tlien took possession ol the llrst battery,spiked
tiie guns, crossed the bridge, seized the second
and did likewise, after which we proceeded to -
inspect their quarters which were on the
bridge. We found lots of commissary stores, j
muskets, ammunition, tvuts (made of table
cloths), 1 silk flag, two prisoners, and various
other articles too numerous to mention. I
then jumped on to a hand ear with Lieut. Wal
ton and started for the North Pass, where tin
boats were lying. We reported to Col. Kim
ball, and be and the doctor started up. After
staying about two hours tile Colonel returned.
While they were gone, tile N. L. and Cloud
started down the river, and went round the
island up the South Pass to the upper batter
■ it's. The X. L. thou came to anchor, while the
Cloud look the doctor aboard, passed through
the draw, into another small lake, where they
took possession of a schooner, five prisoners,
and some small boats. After we destroyed
everything at the North I’ass, we started after
the other boats, arrived about dark, stationed
our pickets, laid down, slept soundly, on the
strength of accomplishments, until daylight,
when we commenced our work of destruction,
which was done in good shape. We were
■ joined by the little steamer Fancy Natchez
which we used as a dispatch boat. The N. L.
started down about an hour before us, so as to
cross the bar at high water. We followed
shortly after and found her at the mouth, hard
and fast on the bar. Both steamers made fast
to her. and after pulling and backing almost an
hour we got her oft-, and proceeded to the
mouth of the Tehonie river, where we left the
N. L.; she not being able to get over the bar
we went up on our own hook, our boat taking
the lead. In about half an hour we arrived at
Madisonville, a very pretty village.
Our boat had not fairly touched the w harf,
before two companies were olf the boat and
going double quick, in pursuit of some troops
which left belore we arrived. One company
surrounded the town: the other kept on for
about two miles, when they returned, not find
ing any troops.
The Cloud passed by with her troops and
sailed up the river about three miles. We took
a colonel and his horse, the Provost Judge, a
captain, and another scamp. We also took
of the colonel, his muster rolls and a
number of small prizes. The town is full
blooded secesh, and all guerrillas, who go
mounted, armed with rifles and double barrel
guns.
Auer taxing our prisoners aboard we started
after the Cloud, which we thought had gone
to Coventon. 20 miles up, but we met her com
ing down, so turned round and concluded to
lay by the town that night. The Cloud an
chored in the river with her guns bearing upon
it and we laid along side of the wharf until
morning, when we prepared to leave for Man
dersville. The Cloud arrived at the South
end, lauded her troops, and we sailed up to
the North end and landed ours, when the
Mayor came down to the wharf and invited
the Colonel to liis house. The town is one of
the most splendid places for a summer resi
dence that I have ever seen. It is situated on
the border of Lake Ponchartrain, with heaps
of bath houses, and everything requisite for a
pleasure resort. The Colonel returned after
an hour's conference with the Mayor, whom
lie found to be Cnion. as fitr as he dared to
express himself. Having accomplished all
that we thought was required, we started for
Lakeport with 12 prisoners, 1 secesh flag. 1
horse, 3 hand cars, and lots of small prizes.
Took the ears for New Orleans where we ar
rivedat the Mint and as the boyscaught sight of
the American flag waving over the secesh,
cheer after cheer was given for the Colonel
and boys. Our force was not quite 500 men,
but we drove over twice our nunilier. I did
not intend to write so much when I commen
ced, but did not know hardly when to stop.
I was told to-day that we should start again
next week with more troops for Camp Moore,
where we hear Gen. Lovell has 3,000 troops.
You w ill probably see an account of our ex
cursion in one of the Portland papers before
long which will give you a better account
than mine.
1'""" «»««r i\«jriiiar orre-ponocnT. J
letter from Harrison's Landing.
Camp near Harrison's Landing, (
July 13th, 1802. (
All quiet along our lines. No enemy near,
at least, in any considerable force. Our dis
tance from the Janies river, is in a straight
line, not more than a mile and a half, so that
we are under the protection of our gunboats.
Our right flank is well fortified by breastworks
and rifle pits, and now and then a strong fort.
The spade seems to be a very useful weapon
in this war. quite as useful, perhaps, as the
stvord. The pioneers axe claims no smell
share of praise, for that has done much in
clearing away forests and making corduroy
roads through miry swamps.
From present appearances, our army I adore
Richmond seems likely to remain at a st-i nd
still for days, weeks, it may lie. months to
come. This war will last for years unless the
Government changes its present plan of con
ducting the war. There is no doubt but that
our Southern brethren are our enemies—the
worst we have ever iiad, or ever shall have.—
Their hatred toward us is of the malignant
type. It should be crushed out, and that, too,
in the speediest manner. They certainly do
not eveu respect the North—then make them
fear it. There is a way to excite their fears
to the utmost. This they richly deserve. Our
Government may yet find this way. If it does,
who can blame.
The method so far of conducting this annm
alous civil w ar, reminds me of a good old iady
of my acquaintance, who used to live on the
banks of the Kennebec, in the town of C-.
This old lady bad a grandson living with her.
This boy was some six years of age, and
spoiled by grandma's many indulgences. One
day this young rogue had committed some
misdemeanor that stirred the old lady's wrath
The little rebel must be punished. Here was
a puzzle. She prepared herself at last with a
big switch and big red apple.
“Jimmy,” says she, “you are a naughty t>oy,
after all your grandmother has done for you.
You must be whipped, to make you a good
boy; but if you will promise to behave well
without a whipping, here is a great big, red
apple for you.” Jimmy didn’t get his whip
ping, took the apple, and the next day forgot
what he had proiiiised his grandma.
Our regiment is slowly recovering its health
and strength. It lias had much heavy fatigue
work to do, when it should have been resting.
Quite a number are on the sick list, though
very few. if any, cases of sickness arc consid
ered dangerous. The climate is very w eaken
ing. It is not prudent to be exposed to the
sun for three or four hours in the middle of
tin* day. Some men have taken considerable
pains to stick green boughs around their tents,
thus making a pleasant shade in a hot day.
Your correspondent, ‘Aroostook,,’ will keep
you posted in matters relating more particu
larly to the Maine 7th.
W ill mention a few items that may not have
yet appeared in your paper. Sergeant Mann,
of the Color Guard, has been promoted to a
2d lieutenant, and Private John W. Parsons of
Co. A, promoted to sergeant major. Both pro
motions are for merit, ami are well deserved.
Sergeant Phalon, of Co. I, has fitted up an
officers’ tent. He is boarding most of the offi
cers in our regiment, in the best style. This
mess has been in operation but a short time,
yet it bids fair to be conducted in a manner
quite equal to a first class hotel. II.

thing else of the kind, and proving
effectual after all otherw have failed,
is designed for both married and
single ladies, and is tiie very best
thing known for the purpose, as it
will bring on the monthly sickness

remedies of the kind have been tried
iu vain.
nrover 2000 BOTTLES have
now been sold without a single fail
ure when taken as directed, and with
out the least injury to health iu any
'case.
It is put up in bottle* of three dif
ferent strengths with Bill directions
for using, and sent by express, closely sealed, to all
parts of the country.
Prices.—Full strength. *10; Half Strength, *6;
Quarter Strength, *3 per bottle.
iF Remember! This medicine is designed ex
pressly for obstinate Cases, which all other rem
edies of the kind have failed to cure: also that it is

at hi* REMEDIAL INSTITUTE FOR SPECIAL
DISEASES, No. 2M Union Street, Providence, R. 1.
tVThis speciality embraces all diseases of a pri
rate, nature troth of MIN and WOMEN, by a regu
larly educated phvsiciau of twenty years' practice,

CAUTION.—It has been estimated that over two
handled thonsund dollars are raid to swindling
quacks annually, in New England alone, without any
itntdltntl.. who pa> it. M. -t of this sum comes
out of a class of persons who are the least able to lose
it, but once paid then can neccr get it back, and they
are compelled to surfer the wrong in silence, not dar
ing to nun the cheat f«>r fear of i rjHtsinp them
selves. All this come* from trusting, a ithout inquiry,
to men who are alike destitute oi honor, character,
and skill, and whose only recomineiuiation is their
own false and extravagaut assertions, in praise of
themselves. If. therefore, you would avoid being
humbugg'xi. take no man's word, no tnatter what his
professions are, hut MAKE INQUIRY it will cost
you nothing, and may save you many regrets; for as
advertising physicians, in nine cases out of ten are
bogus, there is no safety in trusting any tf them, un
less you know who and what they are.

as above, a Pamphlet on DISEASES Or WOMEN,
and on Private Diseases generally ; fix ing most full
information, with the most undoubted references amt
testimonials, without which no advertising phvsiciau
or medicine of this kind is deserving of any confi
dence whatever.
