Beside the numerous wagons connected with the establishment, a great number from the sev- camps crowd the approaches tothe bakery, and enliven the surroundings with the vehement ssnasions of teamsters whose obstinate mules often strive to imitate the lobster’s mode of locomotion. Each wagon in its turn is backed up to awindow, through which the loaves fly swiftly, opelled by the muscle of some stalwart chap inside, and, ‘when filled, makes bong’ J for the next customer, who impatiently waits bis turn oytside. The wood used is pine, split very fine, of which about 50 cords are consumed per month. The establishment is under the supervision of Lieut. Thomas J. Cate, of the 16th infantry, U 8 A, who arrived here with the Massachusetts Sixth, and at once began preparations for supply- ing the troops with bread. Under his superin- tendence all the ovens at the Capitol—fourteen in number—have been built, of which two were cosstructed immediately upon the arrival of the Massachusetts boys. In tbe manufacture of bread at this bakery there are used every twenty four hours 24 busbels of potatoes, 240 barrels of flour, and 1,400 turning out about 60,000 loves of bread. One hundred and fifty men are employed, Lage: rapa ef the coun- try—North. South, t,and West. One, from South Carolina, was in Charleston at the time of the bombardment of Fort Sumter. The amount paid to the employees falls but little short of $5,000 month, and the whole ex, of maiataining establishment isenormous.

Besides this establishment there are immense army bakeries over the river, which turn out, by the thougand loaves, excellent wheat bread, fit to “place before a king.” From tes Potnam Ranorzs.— [Special ng a of the Star.) Pooievitys, Sept 19 —Dear Star: The Putnam Rangers arrived bere, last night, after a long and be apd eae from the vicinity of Washington; but several bours of rest the company have been restored to their usual vigor. They are en- camped two miles south of this place, in a beau- tiful weod that overlooks the finest country inthe State. To the north is seen distiactly the Sugar- losf Mountatn—a mountain ever dear from the remembrances and inciden‘s of childhood to one of the company—and the intervening valleys and bills charm the eve of the beholder. Southward, extended in “ nificent distances,” are prairies with pleasant groves of chestnut wood, and bordered by the ae Potomac.

These vessels were not molested, and report all quiet down the river.
