being Thomas Dolan of Company |, U. S.

a most desperate fight, and our brave
troops behaved with the most heroic gal
lantry in the face of a superior foe. The
rebels had been informed that the federals
had evacuated the town, and they were
coming back to re-occupy it, expecting to
do so unresisted but they were disap-
pointed in their calculations, and have
experienced signal defeat No rebel
army since the war commenced has been
more thoroughly routed and demoralized,
and the full effects of this brilliant victo-
ny ought to be developed. At the last
accounts, Tuesday evening, our forces were
five miles beyond Strasburg, and still in
pursuit Of the flying enemy.-Sprimgfelo

SLEIGH RIDE--Thc married ladies Of

fine sleigh ride, minus their husbands, on
Tuesday of last week. Going to West
Dover they partook of an excellent din
ner at the new and commodious Hotel of
D. G. Leonard, at that place. The wealth
er was fine, and they returned to their
homes early in the evening, with many
praises for +" mine host Leonard, and all
convinced that he can keep a Hotel. -
B. r. argus
We are glad the people in that section
can enjoy sleigh-riding. In this region
the roads are so full of "cradle holes !"
that it is almost impossible to get over
the road at anything like pleasant rate.
If, as some think, F" travers sleds" are the
cause of this difficulty, we should say,
the sooner they are abated, the better.
