Mr Editor : As there lias been a Hospital
lately established in the town of Camden for
the accommodation and treatment of the sick
soldiers of our arm)', and the ladies of the town
have rendered their kind services and ntteii.lon
to the imates of be Hospital, I consider
that an expression of the high appreciation for |
such favors is justly due to the benefactors of the I
soldier. Since our urriv-d here the ladies have |
daily paid us their "visits, enquiring for the }
* Leaith and welfare of the sufferer; they also j
administer to the wants of his appetite, thus
by their presence, tli-ir countenances and eonso!iiig?v.
i,rds buoy up the spirits,and by the excellent
a*.d siiiinbic dishes invigorate the
strength ami health of the palii tit?-he soldier

names and good deeds have been handed down
to the present generation as examples of pa-.,

example of their memorable ancestors, and follow

Ins hunger with well tilled Uisln-s, and of the

respect aiso the fair ladies <>f Camden vie with
their sex in other parts of our country. The
inmates of the Hospitui, and those who have
. shared ?.f the many favors bestowed, will, with
pleasure often recur iu future to days past?
the name? and memories of those kind friends
will long be in the mind of the soldier when
.lie shuli have gone to his command or to his
home?his be.-t wishes fur their prosperity and
happiness will we propose. May Heaven's
choicest blessings attend their career?may
they live to an advanced age to ctijov the blessings
of Southern freedom, and may they alike
be distinguished io the annals of. History,
as were their ancestors, for the love .of their
country, in adhering firrnlv to the one iu the
