Is A WET, 5onntY CLOv:n IELD MID WAY
itTwr's VIEsNA AaD FAIRFAX, Aug. S.
For days palt,.iny friends, the weather has been
vile-rain, rain, rain-and mud accordingly ! 'o
cold too that I have imagined our camp to be not
more than a mile South of Nova Zeinbla. Two
nights ago, I got up and sought all round the
Camp for fare, but finding none, retired to my
scantily covered couch with the thought that there
were times when even hell fire would be a luxury.
These dismal spells are particularly nutritious of
blue devils, and lest I be forced to exclaim "Jc
soec d'etre," I draw out all the epistolary intn
plements and prepare to make may r'entrec in the
colutmns of the Much beloved and always-anx
iously-looked-for Atlerti4er. The running to and
fro upon the weekly arrival of the Adrertisecr is,
I assor' you. quito equal to the confused flight of
the Grand Army from Dull Run. " Uncle CirAr
LIE" (C. M. On.A of Co. A.) announces its ad
vent in a voice which puts to shame the report of
one of Abe Lincoln's thirty-two pound rifled can
ns, whereupon-the "heathen" (all soldiers are
heathen !) rise cat maac and " furiously rage to
gether."
The Seventh has set up its rest upon three hills,
all within the compass of one old field, and were
the weather in the slightest degree conscientious,
we would find it a delightful place. Col. Btcus
occupies one hill, surrounded by the Companies of
Captains T.uni.:nT, PnEscoTT and WIttF, while
the other Companies have seated" themselves upon
the other two hills. The Colonel's quarters are
held in a mammoth tent, captured as we pursued
the flying Yankees on the evening of the eventful
21st-a tent twice as large as any we have ever
hsad, and which will last until lob Lincoln's grand
eh biren are grown. Behind the said tent stands
a. elab rate cooking-stove, captured also from the
enetuv. All our crockery, cutlery, cooking uten
sils. &e., are carried in a huge and cunningly
contrived wicker chest, also a Yankee trophy
gathered in by Maj. S::tnnr.s. In fact we have
from the Yankees every co:nfort and convenience.
Almost within hailin,; distance of us are Colonels
le.:::s r, C.ts tt and WILI.tM. Capt. l:t:n.::t:'s
Artillery and Capt. Dovsrs's Cavalry troop are
also with us, l;en. Do it~u has hh- heo.l-quarte s

With the exception of a little measles, and now
anti then a case of typhidl fever, we are well and
vigorous privations and the calamities of war
are said to precipit.lte oge, but every one here is
looking rejuvenated : the thin are growing plump,
and the corpulent are growing are/tr. We g't

on the m:reh or on the lt.okout for the eneury, and

The tone of the British press in regard to the

The Crisis in Kentucky.
LottsvILLr.., Aug. 2-.-The crisis in Kentucky
is probably reached. Eighty armed men left hero
this morning, as a posso for the Collector, in a
special train, to capture nine wagons loaded with
contraband goods on the Rocky Fork. They left
the main line at the Lebanon Junction, and cap
tured the train.
At the latest advices, the captured wagons were
cut ot, and persons interested in the adventure
are said to onsider the property safe. The Leba
non ltranch train didl net re. eh the .Tua;id ., it is
supposed in eonsequence of the track having been
destroyed.
Latar.-The C.Alee:.r's p:.:se hn-e returned
with the plauler.
A printer, by the na:ne of McCarty, was killed
hy accidentally falling from the train. Only one
radl was pulled up on the Lebanon Branch. The
plunder tided 25 freight ears.

MANUFACTUIED AT
Columbia, S. C.,
BY R. M. STOKES & CO.
T H. subscribers hereby notify the Farmers
and Planters of the Southern Confederacy
that they are now establishing a factory for the
production of a commercial Fertilizcr, which they
eilieve will be found equal to any fertilizer here
tofore purchased fromi the North. All the in-re
dients of the SOUTIIERN COMPOUND FEl
TILIZElI are found in rabundance in the South,
and only require the application of scientifie
knowledge to make us perfectly independent of
our enemies, even in this particular.
Our intention is to sell our Planters an honest
and reliable Fertilizer, peculiarly adapted to our
own soil, elimate, and crops, and, as far as possi
ble, shiehl then fromn the gross impositions so
frequently palmed upon them by Northern ma
nure manufacturers.
Our Fertilizer ront:ins all tie elements ne -
sary for the food of plants, being compnsed of
PULVERIZl:D NIt~ItT SOIL, POTASH, DIS
SOLVE) BONES, SULI'] URIC ACID, PLAS.
TER and LIME. The manure thus formed, con
taining a largo per centage of potash and other
alkaline salts, will render it ineu/le: /br rotoun,
nnd will he found to influence the growth of all
other crops sufiiently early in the season, though
not quite so promptly as Peruvian (nano. It will
hold out longer, and mature the seed perfectly,
giving decidedly the best crops, and will show
itelf in most instances superior to (luann or many
other of the most. popular fertilizers. We shall
be ready to supply the Fertilizer about the 5th of
Secpteniier.
Price, $15 per ton of 2,000 lHi., cash,
bankable paper, or Confederate State Bonds.
