the ladies at last began to drop in one by one, it was pleasant to witness the cheerful smiles which seemed to lighten up the countenances of all. At 3 o'clock, services were held in the main hall of the hospital. It was to me a most imposing spectacle to witness that large assembly of men in all stages of sickness — some sitting upon their beds, while others were lying down, listening to the word of God--many of them probably for the last time. The subject of the sermon was the "Peace of Christ," and a most timely and instructive discourse it was. I do not think that I ever saw a more attentive audience. They seemed to drink in the Word of Life at every breath. I learned that much good had been done by preaching in the hospital — that many a distressed soul had found peace. The field of labor opened here for the accomplishment of good is beyond measure; an Angel might covet it, and nobly is the worthy Chaplain devoting himself to his labor of love. Long may he be spared to reap

From the white Sulphur Springs. the effect of the War upon the Springs--the tender care of woman — Efficient officers — cold weather — divine service — a funeral — death of Mrs. Holt [Correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch.] white Sulphur Springs, Nov. 17, 1861. in my humble efforts in aiding and abetting "Southern treason," I have been detained for a day or so in the vicinity of this place, and for want of other employment this evening, have concluded to give you a hasty sketch of matters and things here. the blighting effects of War are scarcely anywhere in the Confederacy more plainly marked than in this lovely valley amidst the mountains, once consecrated to the votaries of fashion.
