DEAR MOTHER, I am going to keep a sort of a journal for you. I was in the hospital yesterday, when the door opened, and in walked Mr. Hasard to take me to the boat. I got into the carriage, and found the back seat strewn with articles for my comfort ; a pretty scarf to tie over my head ; hospital manuals for my edification ; a bottle of choice brandy, in case of need among those on board, &c. He took me on board and left me. Such a scene of confusion and dirt, and soldiers ! The ship is built u...p in all sorts of ways, to afford accommodation for the sick. We were obliged to start while all was in confusion, in order to reach the scene of action as soon as possible. If there should be an engagement at present going on at Vicksburg, we shall stop a little way above it. The ship is getting into order. I have been in the lin- en and supply room this morning. The doctor took me there after breakfast ; installed me in such a scene of confusion ! gave me the key with the advice not to put things in order till he had sent up a quantity more !
