GOING INTO BATTLE.

A correspondent ofthe Baltimore Sun, who
was in the battle of Monterey, volunteer in
the Baltimore battalion, furnishes an interest
ing letter for the Baltimore Sun, ofwhich the
following is All exrract:

knowledge, but they all stood like men, and
could not bear the idea to be the first to run,
and therefore kept on with the rest. The
Tennesseeans were about ten yards in our
advance, the Missssippiaus about the same
distance in our rear. You will therefore see
that had to stand up TO the rack, fodder or

At this moment an awful fire was opened
on the Fcnnesseeans. They fell by scores,
hut the balance stood like veterans. We
were fired upon bya cross fire from nine and
twelve Founders, and murderous discharge

windows, and tops ofhouses.
BY this time Col. Watson was trying to get
us ahead Of the Tennesseeans, having appli-

Collamer, Wing, is no doubt elected in the
I'd District, The returns we have seen look
as if his majority was large.
In this, the 9TH District, no one expected an
election, and consequently none have been dis,
appointed. The returns of this county, SO far
as we have them--all but four towns-show
a gain for Chandler over Peck, compared with
the September vote, Of about 200, Ten towns
in Washington County also show a gain for
o. ofahout 2Oo--and three in Orleans of some
60 or TO- H..U
Should the gain prove to be in like pro-
portion throughout the District Chandler will
lead Peck hundred or two,--yetthis is too
much to expect

lington in u ono horse wagon, having with
him 5000, to carry to man in Willistou. On
the road down what is called ''Little River"
