Correspondence of the Franklin Repository.

Camp Two Miles North of Marietta, Ga.,
June 20th, 1864.

More than a month has passed since I last wrote to you from near Kingston, Georgia. I would liked to have written again before this, but time would not allow. Since then we had quite a stirring time. We left our camp near Kingston on the 23d of May, and crossed the Etowaw river some six miles to the right of Kingston. We crossed on a splendid bridge, which the enemy in his hurry had not time to destroy. A few miles south of the river we found ourselves on the direct Atlanta road again. On the 24th of May we marched hard all day, and on the 25th until noon, when we were halted on the north bank of the Pumpkin Vine Creek. Now we could hear heavy volleys of musketry several miles in our front, which plainly told us "fighting Joe" was into them again. Our infantry as they came up all crossed the bridge over Pumpkin Vine Creek, and battery after battery came up and pulled into park. The ground the rebels chose to fight us on this time was so densely wooded that artillery could not be used with any advantage. Before night all the batteries, with the exception of one or two, of the 5th and 20th Corps, had pulled into park. Fortunately Generals Hooker and Howard soon succeeded in driving the enemy so that we could get some artillery into position. On the morning of the 27th all the batteries found themselves in position along the line, with heavy works in front, and Battery B got into a very hot place, which has invariably been its luck since we started out on this campaign. We had our Battery strongly fortified within one hundred yards of the enemy's main line of works. During the afternoon of the 27th we were in a desperately hot place, and had it not been for our strong works half of our men would have been killed. We had only five wounded, who were all shot through the port holes. Three of these were "No. 1" at their pieces. If I were to give the details of one day's fight after the other, it would fill one side of your paper, so I will just give you details of some of our warmest engagements. Captain S.M. McDowell is now Chief of Artillery in the 1st Division, 4th Corps, and is on Maj. Gen. Stanley's staff. His command was very sorry to lose him, but he richly deserves the honorable position he now fills. Captain Simonson, who was Chief of Artillery of the 1st Division, was killed in one of the late engagements while getting a position for one of his batteries. He was a heroic and daring officer, and was beloved by all who knew him. We have now but two commissioned officers present with our Battery, and are entitled to five. Lieut. Ziegler is in command. He is a brave man and good soldier, and I know will take the Battery through any fight with credit. Since Capt. McDowell is on Gen. Stanley's staff, he had a musket ball put through his cap. Lieut. E.F. Shatzer, commanding the third section, had it in the hottest place any part of our Battery has been yet. The whole Battery was ordered to the left to support the 2nd Division, (Newton's) 4th Corps, and there was only position for two pieces. Lieut. Shatzer advanced within one hundred and fifty yards of the enemy's strong fortifications, which were fully thirty feet thick. He had no cover whatever for his men, but open he would, and fired thirty-six rounds with the two pieces before retiring. At one piece he lost one man killed, and at the other, four badly wounded. These were all the casualties, but there was scarcely a man but had his garments cut with bullets. The Lieutenant had a hole through his overcoat. Gen. Geo. H. Thomas personally complimented our Battery for its accurate shooting, and the good conduct of the men in the face of the enemy. We have frequently gone out on the skirmish line with our Battery since this campaign. Since we left Blue Springs our Battery has been much cut down by disease and wounds. This is too hard a campaign for new recruits. We have now over thirty sick and wounded men in the hospital, but we still have one hundred and forty-one casualties. [We have already published them.--Ed.]

Samuel Dine, your old townsman and wood-chopper, was wounded the second time--first at Chickamauga severely, but through good attendance he got well in time to enter the veteran service. This time, he was struck on the forehead by a minnie, which made a terrible gash. He walked to the hospital, and two days after receiving his wound told the Surgeon in charge of the hospital he wanted to go to his company. The Doctor said he could not do duty. He said he could, and would remain no longer. The Doctor said he was a brave man, and let him return to duty.

I must not forget the 77th Regt. Pa. V. V., which belongs to our Brigade. This heroic little band, commanded by Col. Rose, has suffered more than any other regiment in the Brigade. It lost forty men killed and wounded. I was with Capt. John Walker, of Co. A, this forenoon. He told me there was but one Chambersburger wounded, by name Mr. Troutman. One of his heels was shot off. I do not think there is a company in the regiment or brigade that has done more duty or been on the skirmish line more than Capt. Walker's, and the Captain remains with and endures all the hardships of his men. He is a good soldier, and deserves promotion. The 4th Corps has done more fighting than any other Corps in this campaign. I hope you will excuse this miserable letter as it was written within six hundred yards of the rebel fortifications, and minnies and shells constantly whizzing over and around my head.

Call For 500,000 Men
(Column 1)

Summary: Reports President Lincoln's new call for 500,000 additional troops to serve one year. The Repository points out "this call places beyond the possibility of doubt the early and complete success of the war."

Full Text of Article:

Loyal men will rejoice that the president has called for 500,000 additional troops, to serve one year. Credits will be made, in accordance with the new law, for all enlistments in the naval and marine service, and for all excesses on quotas in the sub-districts; and fifty days--ending on the 5th day of September next--are given for districts to raise their quotas by volunteers, and for individuals to put in substitutes. No exemptions from service can be procured under this call by the payment of commutation money.

This call places beyond the possibility of doubt the early and complete success of the war, and as such it will be accepted by a loyal people with confidence and patriotic pride. The heroic Sherman now has the rebel army of the South driven through its strongest fortifications into its last defences, and the invincible Grant closely invests the rebel capital, with its last army unable to offer battle, its communications periled, and its scanty stores well nigh exhausted. It needs but one terrible, overwhelming blow to end this causeless, unholy rebellion, and restore to us honorable Peace and enduring Union.

Let the People respond to this call with a degree of promptness worthy of their sacred cause. Let the arm of the government be strengthened as its final victory approaches, and let Copperheads quake and grumble as they will, for our imperiled Nationality must soon emerge from the cruel, wicked war of traitors, and assign treason and its blotted and bloody record to history. The Republic shall live!

Border Defence
(Column 2)

Summary: The Repository discusses the recent rebel invasion of Maryland. A garrison in Maryland would have prevented the invasion. Pennsylvanian citizens should learn from Maryland's mistake and be prepared to protect themselves.

Shall Our Soldiers Vote?
(Column 3)

Summary: The Repository discusses the soldiers' right to vote, noting the precedent from the Mexican War. The Repository also notes that the Democrats have not given any support to the enfranchisement of soldiers. The article includes the text of the amendment to the state constitution.

Editorial Comment: "the first word has yet to be given to the public from that party in favor of allowing our soldiers to vote."

Full Text of Article:

On Tuesday the 2nd of August--one week from Tuesday next--the people of Pennsylvania will be called upon to approve or reject several important amendments proposed to the Constitution of the State. The election will be held during the same hours, and governed by the same laws in all respects, as our general elections. Three distinct propositions or amendments are to be submitted to the popular vote, and separate ballots headed "First Amendment," "Second Amendment" and "Third Amendment," with "For the Amendment" or "Against the Amendment" below, must be cast. The second and third amendments relate to legislative restrictions which are essentially just and expedient, and they will be adopted without serious opposition. The following are the several amendments in full:

There shall be an additional section to the third article of the Constitution, to be designated as section four, as follows:

"Section 4. Whenever any of the qualified electors of this Commonwealth shall be in any actual military service under, under a requisition from the President of the United States, or by the authority of this Commonwealth, such electors may exercise the right of suffrage in all elections by the citizens, under such regulations as are, or shall be, prescribed by law, as fully as if they were present at their usual place of election."

Section 3. There shall be two additional sections to the eleventh article of the Constitution, to be designated as sections eight, and nine, as follows:

"Section 8. No bill shall be passed by the Legislature, containing more than one subject, which shall be clearly expressed in the title, except appropriation bills.

"Section 9. No bills shall be passed by the Legislature granting any powers, or privileges, in any case, where the authority to grant such powers, or privileges, has been, or may hereafter be, confer[r]ed upon the courts of this Commonwealth."

The only contest will be on the first proposition--that confer[r]ing the right of suffrage upon our gallant soldiers in the field, and it becomes the friends of our heroes to be fully prepared for the issue. That the Democratic leaders will exhaust themselves by every means short of open, manly opposition, to defeat this amendment we cannot doubt. Judge Woodward delivered the decision of the Supreme Court of this State in 1862 disfranchising them, after their vote had been counted during the Mexican war, and in the election of 1861 without question; and the Democrats of the legislature last winter were prevented from defeating the proposition only because they were in a minority. Had they controlled either branch of the legislature, our soldiers would have been denied the right to vote solely because they are periling their lives to preserve our Nationality. True, the Democrats of the House did not vote directly against the amendment confer[r]ing the right of soldiers; but they voted against the second and third propositions in a body, with the single exception of Mr. Marshall, of Adams, knowing well that to defeat one would defeat all. The Constitution of the State requires in express terms that amendments must pass two consecutive legislatures without alteration, before they can be submitted to the people; and had they been modified by the failure to adopt all the propositions passed by the previous legislature, all the amendments--including the one giving the right of suffrage to soldiers--would have been postponed for another year, and the army vote would not have participated in the coming Presidential election. Thanks to a Union legislature, this unmanly effort to disfranchise our soldiers failed, and a full vote now is only necessary to enable the gallant defenders of the Union to vote for the cause for which they have periled everything.

We have closely observed the action of the Democratic press and politicians throughout the State on this vital question; and the first word has yet to be given to the public from that party in favor of allowing our soldiers to vote. While the Union State Committee has earnestly advocated the measure in an elaborate and pointed address to the people of the State, and the entire Union press heartily commends it to voters, not a single Democratic journal has yet spoken of it, save to ridicule or denounce it, and the Democratic State Committee has thus far failed to call attention to the special election. In short the Democratic politicians are opposed to confer[r]ing the right of suffrage upon our volunteers, believing as they do that soldiers who fight for a common Nationality will not vote with its foes. They have not dared to array themselves openly against it, for they fear the honest of their own party cannot be driven to disfranchise the army; but their hope is that the election may be neglected, and that with a quiet organization they may succeed by default of its friends. If any man doubts the hostility of the Democracy to the soldiers voting, let him wait until the vote is polled and compare the returns from Allegheny or Lancaster with the returns from such intensely copperhead counties as Berks and Northampton.

We appeal to Union men to be on their guard. They owe it to the brave men who are defending our homes and our sacred cause, to give one day to secure them their civil rights, and declare to our patriotic men who are in the service, and who may hereafter enter it, that they shall not sacrifice their rights as citizens by protecting our government from murderous traitors. Let patriotic men of every party make a common effort in behalf of our battle-scarred heroes, and declare in favor of their right to vote by such an overwhelming majority as will make the foes of our Nation's cause and of its defenders hide their treachery in sullen silence.

General Coffroth
(Column 4)

Summary: The Repository excerpts an article from the Somerset Democrat that thanks General Coffroth for changes in enrollment for the draft. The change allows men to report within their respective counties eliminating the need to travel long distances. The Repository expresses indignation at the Somerset Democrat for giving Coffroth the credit for the change when "it was first urged in the columns of the Repository, and subsequently ordered by the Secretary of War in compliance with a dispatch sent him by the chief editor of this paper."

(No Title)
(Column 5)

Summary: The Repository excerpts an article in the New York Tribune that charges Chambersburg with inhospitality to the New York troops last summer. The Repository responds "it is time for the wholesale slanders of cowardly shoulder-hitters and wharf-rats, who straggled and plundered habitually, to find some meaner channel for endorsement and publicity."

Full Text of Article:

It seems rather a pity that the Rebel spoilers of Maryland were not tempted to extend the sphere of their operations so as to embrace the more intensely Coppperhead districts of southern Pennsylvania. Had they gone thither and been charged for every mouthful they ate or drank (water included) as our boys were last Summer, they must have been thoroughly cured of all taste for invasion for the rest of their mortal lives.--New York Tribune.

There is no excuse for a journal like the Tribune giving publicity to a falsehood so palpable and shameless as the above. Its editors know something of the people of Southern Pennsylvania, and its many readers in this section should have been a protection against such wanton defamation. No New York soldier ever gave the Tribune or any one else such a report of the people of Pennsylvania; but possibly some of the many thieves and skulkers who accompanied the New York regiments, may have attempted to shield their own notorious crimes by the systematic vituperation of our citizens. The press of Southern Pennsylvania has been unwilling to give the true history of the march of the New York militia, because there were doubtless reputable and brave men among them who would have suffered thereby; but we submit to the Tribune that it is time for the wholesale slanders of cowardly shoulder-hitters and wharf-rats, who straggled and plundered habitually, to find some meaner channel for endorsement and publicity.

[No Title]
