Rhode Islanders on the march.
--A letter from a member of the Rhode Island Regiment, dated in camp, at Williamsport, Md., Sunday, June 16, gives the following description of a recent march of that regiment:
Yesterday morning at seven o'clock we left our camp near Greencastle, and marching 15 miles, arrived here at one o'clock. It was an awful march, as you may judge from the fact that out of 1,350 men only 600 marched in with the column — many of these 600 were so sick that they had to be carried in the wagons, and the rest of them had to stop along the road a mile or two back, and they came along one or two at a time during the course of the afternoon.
One of the wagon drivers told me that he had more than seventy-five in the wagons at once.
