regard to the oppinions of the mass on the Confiscation Act. I think it is mightlily mixed. They are rejoiceing over the talked of Conscription Bill, for they think it will bring some of the Copperheads into the Army. I saw by the St. Louis Republican that Pat. McNulty of our Company was in irons in St. Louis for deserting, I hope they will serve all deserters in the same way. I must bring this to a close as I shall soon have to go on duty. Love to you al and my respects to all enquireing friends. From Brother Cralos
