We have heard here this evening of the accidental
shooting Of one of The guards at Burnt Bridge Camp.

been accidents here vet All the bars are closed
and firing of guns IL allowed within the corporate
limits.
The Roueh-and-Ready Guards are still at the Mos
ongahela Bridge, excepting detachment of ten und0
Lpsut O'Bren, who brought the Fairmont prisones
up and still here. Two of these prisoners, Wakes
and Mathews, who were telegraph operators at Fair

Any .pecna ion as to the future movements of trooa
from here il mere guess work. OF course none but
the commanding officers know what Ia going to BE-
done until ia done. For various reasons, however,
think il improbable that any important move will oe
made for two or three DAYS. There is yet want Of
orgauzaon in the different departments that needs 70
be supplied. - ,
