'vl suppose you know I am a soldier, but how brave a or.e I won't s:iy. ''I left Camp Mount with the Ifdst regiment on the 11th of August ami have been hero every since. "We have a very beautiful camp and finely situated for health and idigators. We are encamped in a forest of pine tiees, having the St. John's liver only a few Hundred yards on the east, the ocean about eiiht miles to the north, and Jacksonville a lew miles south. The weather would be terrible if it were not for tht breeze from the ocean. This is tne finest country in the world to sleep in I believe. 1 enjoy getting up at a quarter after four immensely. It rains here every day but not enough to stay in the sand. Then the sun conies out and beats down on the wet sand, and then maybe jou think it is not hot. One of the boys was heard to remark a few ciays ago that no wonder it was hot here because it was only haif a mile from the sun, many miles from home, and only a lew feet from hell. "This is about the poorest country to raise anything in 1 ever eaw. There is nothii but Band, and you could not raise a fuss on it. The'e are plenty of negroes and many Cubans, but these are more animals than an\thins We have over forty thousand soldiers here now, and are all in the 7th army corps under the command of Gen. F.

We are all prepared to go to Cuba about the 1st of October, «nd as our regiment is the special guard of the General, it wi'i eurelv be placed in Havana "How are all mj girls?

A Bad
If are to believe the Ude of woe sot forth in a petition for divorce by Elizabeth IIofl'a against her husbond, Geo. HoOu, that gentleman is certainly a bad individual. The plaintiff accuses him of t^'iiuj vicious, brutal and immoral. The complaint recites that they have been married ten years and us a fruit of of the union have twelve children. That numerous occasions George has beaten and ubusrd her, that he has accused her of immoral conduct while ho himself has been guilty of living in open adultery with certain women whose names she does not mention. She prays the court for an absolute divorce, the custody of the children and all proper relief whatever that m.iv be. .*

Lee R. Disher, the jolly, fat blacksmith. who has been holding forth in a shop, on east Main street for several months past, is now roaming in a strange land, while there is a look of goneness about ttv li tle shop. Saturday night Disher brought hie wit and child down town to do soui" trading. Taking them to a store, he told tliera to wait for him as ho wanted to see a man on som.j business. Going directly to Britton's livery stable he hired a man to take him to Linden, from which place ha took the west bound train and went— no one knows where. The desertion is a nv't-l cruel one as he leaves the wife and child without money or friends. He also left numerous creditors who would be pleased to hetr from him when he gets settled iu his new location.
