The Cavalry force which left Harper s
Ferry last night at o'clock arrived here
to-day at l o'clock, numbering about ], 800.
While it seems it was completely surround
ed at Harper's Ferry, the Cavalry obtained
permission to cut their way out After
obtaining a guide they started, and sue
ceeded in making their way around the
enemy without being discovered. On
reaching the Williamsport road, they dis
covered a train of fifty wagons, which they
captured. 1t belonged to Longstreet's am
munition train, which had just left Ha-
gerstown after supplying that division
with ammunition, the wagons being still
about half full. Most Of them proved to
be wagons taken from Pope army at Cen
terville. About IS prisoners were captur-
ed at the same time, some of them having
formerly lived in this vicinity. Colonel
Mcclure, with other officers, had consider
able trouble to keep the crowd from hang
ing these double-dyed traitors on their
way to prison.
Captain Palmer to-day proceeded to Ha-
gerstown, and found the rebels had gone.
and I learn is now in pursuit of them with
a large force of cavalry and infantry which
Joined him to-day.
The cavalry that came through state the
troops at Harper's Ferry could hold out
till to-day, and that if reinforcements came
up before noon they would be safe.
A dispatch has reached here that Nc
Clellan defeated androuted LOngstreet and
Hill yesterday with great slaughter, and
that the rebels were flying in every direc-
tion to get out of Maryland.

An officer, slightly wounded in battle
yesterday, who arrived here late tonight,
represents that the fight took place three
or four miles west of Middletown, Freder-
iok county, at the foot of the first mountain
going west.
The enemy was strongly posted, but our
men with the most determined courage
drove them up the mountain through q
strip Of woods, corn-felds, and open
ground. The rebels made occasional
stands behind the walls and fences, but
were driven thence to hetop of the Noun
tain and over into the valley, when it be-
ing night our troops were called from
further pursuit. Not one of our men fall
tered This point of contest was main
tanned by our troops of the center.
Two Colonels were among the rebels
slain, found on the field this morning.
The battle wa fought principally with
infantry on our part, it being impractica-
bic to bring the artillery into full play.
Gibbons, however, with much toll succeed
ed in getting battery upon the mountain
to the right of the infantry, and did execu-
tion.
A captured rebel lieutenant said it was
their intention to mass their troops to-day.
Hatch is represented as having been wound
ed in the leg.

The steamer Champion from AspinwaIl

The following is an account of the gal
lantry Of two Ohio regiments. By one
brilliant charge over 200 prisoners were
captured.
1t appears that one of the North CARROLL

Ohio regiments. The latter also suffered
severely, when probably burning with re-
Venge, while their foes were engaged with
some ether regiments, they silently crept
forward to a stone wall, on the other side
OF which a skirmish was going on, and
opened CALLING fire upon them.
The 18th and 23d Ohio were ordered IN

few moments, desperate fight took place,
the 18th Ohio being engaged with the 10Th

WASHINGTON, Sept 15.
The Star says, at 9 P. N. to-day the en-
gegement at Burnside's position had not
been renewed. He was then in undisputed
possession of the advantageous crest of
the Mountain, from which he drove the
enemy the night before. The firing that
commenced at daybreak to-day was an at
tack of the enemy on Franklin's corps, on
the road to Harper's Ferry. No direct
communication was had with that corps
at 9 o'clock this morning.
The telegraph operator at Point of Rocks
reports that Franklin was heavily engaged
this morning some miles in front of him,
(the operator).
The division or army corps that yester-
day morning occupied Hagerslown was
not in yesterdays action, though it hasti-
ly retraced its steps in order to be in the
fight to-day. Neither Sumner s army corps
nor Couch division was in action yester-
day, though both are doubtless supporting
Franklin to-day, as they were in position
to do so yesterday evening.
The army corps of Fitz John Porter
passed through Frederick to-day at 8 A. ~,
and were to have arrived on the battle
field at noon.
Rebels in the fight say Beauregard ex-
pected to join them to-day with his army
corps, 10000 strong. We have no idea
that any such expectation of theirs can be
realized.
Burnsides position, won from the enc
my in yesterdays battle, commands the
only road from Hagerstown to the position
where Franklin is fighting, we believe, to-
day, hence its great importance. To lose
it will be most damaging to the enemy.

The latest bit of Partisan gossip is as
follows; About dozen years ago man,
rather shabbily dressed, but bearingan air
of distinction, inferred q cafe of modest ap-
pearance in the Faubourg St. German, and
asked for a cup of coffee and a roll. This
he swallowed rapidly, as if pressed by ex-
treme hunger, and slowly retired, without
however, seeming to avoid the demand for
payment. The waiter, stupifed, FASTENED

with family, but kind-hearted woman,
of what had taken place The latter, who
had observed the air Of detection of the
stranger, Immediately replied that it was
all right l know the gentleman The next
day the stranger returned, asked for the
same things, and retired in the same man
ner as before, without paying. This con-
tinued for about two months, after which
he was seen no more. About month ago
the widow was invited to call upon a not
airy to receive a sum Of money which had
been left to her by will. She could not
believe her good fortune, and thought there
must be some mistake, when the notary
afforded her an explanation by reading the
following extract from q will which he held
in his hand; 4 bequeath 60,000f. to the

Garibaldis escape from Catania to the
main land: In the evening Of the 24th Of
August, Garibaldi took possession of two
postal steamers in Catania harbor. and en-
barked on board Of them with q portion Of
his volunteers, leaving, however, the main
body behind. He was discontented and
discouraged because the population did not
show itself favorable, and supplied him
neither with aid nor money, and all the
notable persons had left. Two Italian
frigates, the Vittorio Emmanuele and the
Duca di Genoa, were that same evening in
Catania. The Government is not yet mi
nutely Informed of the circumstances
which prevented those two frigates from
stopping Garibaldi on his passage, after
the precise and absolute orders which had
been given to that effect The Minister of
the Marine having arrived at Messina on
the following day, Immediately ordered the
eommandants Of those two frigates to be
arrested and sent to Genoa, to be tried by
court martial. The Government is resolved
to act with the greatest severity towards
those who may be guilty of transgressing
their orders. The troops Immediately oc-
eupied the town of Catania, and made
about eight hundred volunteers prisoners,
who had been unable to disband. Cense-
quently the authority of the King is re-
