The Lord hath blessd thee, farmer,
In basket and 10 store,
Then with thy hearts clad pralts1

While His good Kifts 80 freely
Are all about thee poured
Let all thy fields re-echO

Comes from hlll and lea,
While smiles the ripened fruitage
From every bending tree;
While daily Ifs rich blessing
SWslls high the garnered hoard
Give, like Ills ancient people,
Thy hrst fruits 10 the Lord.
Twas BY His watch care nourished
The plenteouS harvest grew;
lie gave the genial sunshine,
The clear rain and the dew;
LO for thy patleut labor
How gen'rnus the reward
It's meet that thou sh0uldst Onst
Thy hFst fruits to the Lord.

the Pennsylvania Reserve Corps was sta
toned Capt. Cooper's First Pennsylvania
Battery Of four pieces Captain Rausom's,
Company c, Fifth United States Battery,
of four pieces, toek position at the ex-
treme right in the rear of the First Brig
ode of Ricketts, Division.
Immediately after the line Of battle was
formed, the right, left and centre COM
menced moving simultaneously toward the
enemy on the slope of the mountains
The rebels opened on the column with two
pieces Of cannon, directing the fire Of one
to the right, and of the other to the left of
the line. They were replied to by one of
Simmons 20-pounders on our left, and
Cooper's Battery on our right. The enemy
continued the firing for upward of an hour,
when, on account of the severe punish
ment he was receiving from our guns, and
the near approach of our infantry to his
pieces, he disappeared on the other side Of
the mountain.
& The enemy's shells for the most part
went over the Union troops, consequently
they did not effect much damage.
Steadily onward went our long unbro-
ken line of infantry, until the right wing
had gained piece of woods on the noun
tain, a short distance from the base, when
the Bucktails, who were skirmishing on
the right, discovered the enemy's piekets.
A desultory rattling of musketry was next
heard, which indicated the commencement
of the battle on the part of the infantry
The column from right to left still remain
ed unbroken, and advanced cautiously but
firmly up the steep. In q short time the
enemy's main force was encountered, and
then came heavy volleys of musketry on
the right. The Pennsylvania Reserve Corps
and the First Brigade of Ricketts, Divis-
ion were now hotly engaging the enemy.
The rebels stood their ground for while,
but after a contest of thirty minutes they
wavered, and commenced falling back in
disorder toward the summit of the noun
tains. Our forces pushed them vigorously
and kept up continuous fire.
The yalor displayed on this occasion by
the Pennsylvania Reserves, and the corps
formerly under the command ofMcDowell,
is deserving of the highest praise. Not a
straggler could be seen on the field. Eve
ry man was at his post in the line. They
all seemed determined to force b9ck the
enemy and take possession of the noun
tains, in spite of any opposition that
might be placed in their way. Gen. Hook
er, accompanied by his staff, was, where
he always is on such occasions-at the
front. The line did not give way for an
instant, but kept moving forward and up
ward, pouring volley after volley of mus
kerry into the enemy's ranks, until at last
the rebels broke and ran preoipitately to
the top of the mountain-thence down on
the other side.
