Shooting u Daring Fee.

Yorktown correspondence N. Y. Evening Post.
A little incident happened today worth
relating. Ever since our pickets have been
within six hundred yards of the enemy's
works, rebel seven.iooter has shown him>
self tauntingly at safe distance from our
guns, evidently Drawing the fire of our sharp
shooters. All the pieces had been repeated
ly leveled upon him but without effect. To
day he came outside as usual, waving bis
hat, when two balls went whizzing toward
him, but fell short. The rebel continued his
observations.
Meanwhile messenger was despatched
for certain telescope target rife known
to be in the hands of a sharpshooter, and
Colonel Berdan and one of bis officers, &C.
companied by two of his men, walked out
to see the result as one would 60 to bear
hunt. Arrived at the point designated, the
seven .footer was still there, when the owner
OF the rifle drew up at arms length, and
the moment the muzze fell so as to cover
bis heart, the hair trigger was touched, and
the haunting foe fell without struggle. A
skirmish ensusd, our sharpshooters trying
to prevent the rebels from recovering the
body, and it was finally left outside until
nightfall.

spattered with blood, coal-smut and grease,
forgetful of every feeling but the one of

sition be still holds He was recently met
by Major Ben B. French, the Superintend

formed him that certain politicians were

port him as secessionist, and advised the
Colonel to be upon tho lookout.
A few days after, these worthy sons of
New Hampshire again met, when Ben in>
quired of the Colonel whether be had
thought of the matter.
"Yes," replied Tom, "I've thought of it,
and concluded not to trouble myself about
it at ALL"
"Why don't you ?" asked the Major /;
"they III have you out"
"Oh," said Tom, tive consulted law
yer, and he tells me not to have any fears
about it they can't start me-"

II Among the wounded brought from
Pittsburg, and pIaced in the Fourth street
hospital, Cincinnati, was an officer in the
Second Iowa regiment. He relates, with
more vividness than our pen can command,
an encounter in the great battle which has
not yet been published.
The officer was wounded on Sunday. On
endeavoring to make bis way to the river.
he fell exhausted in ravine, which at the
time was inside of our lines. He made
himself as comfortable as possible, and lay
there patiently awaiting the arrival of
friends to carry him away. Monday morn
ing be was surprised to find that he lay be
tween the contending armies. On one side
of the ravine Union battery was planted,
and on the other, rebel one, each sup
ported by dense masses of infantry.
Both batteries opened fire, and for
hours the shot and shell fell thick and
heavy over him. He lay so near the rebel
battery that he could not only see their
movements, but hear their commands. The
shots of the Union battery were very effec-
tive, and General officer whom be supposs
ed to be Beauregard, declared it must be
taken at all hazards. He selected for that
purpose, a brigade, composed of Louisiana
and Texas regiments These troops were all
uniformed, some of them very handsomely,
and the regiments have very gorgeous
banners. He judged them at once to be
crack regiments. He heard Beauregard
address them, telling them that a great
deal depended on their taking that bat-
terry, that they could and must do it, and
that il they retained without occupying it,
they should be disgraced. The orders
were received by the entire brigade, and
they moved off with the steady tramp
of veterans. There was moments lull in
the fire OF the national battery, but it ives
only to substitute canister for she'll. The
next moment the guns belched forth an in.
cessant fire, and the canister raked the adj
vancing column. Whole platcons were
shot down, but still the brigade advanced.
The murderous fire increased. Dead and
wounded lay piled up in great heaps. The
column staggered. An effort was made to
close up the gaps that canister quickly
made in the column. The shattered col.
umn had reached a point near where our
hero lay, when, unable to stand the deadly
fire, the regiment broke and ran, leaving
the whole side of the ravine cover
ed with their dead and wounded.
The national commander saw the advan-
tage of the movement, and Immediately
ordered an advance of his infantry. In a
moment the column leaped from behind the
battery, and dashed down the bank of the
river with yell. Then up hill they moved
on the double quick, and with bayonets
fixed, jumped over the killed and dying.
Before minute elapsed they were upon the
rebel battery, which they captured entire.
Our line was Immediately advanced to the
opposite side OF the ravine, and soon after
our informant carried from the sanguinary
field. at was grandly terrific spectacle, i"
said be, in conclusion, sand I do not regret
my wound, as it enabled me to be silent
witness of the encounter."-C6m Times.

that they eloped from Elmira about five

The New Ir0n.Clad Steamer Ironsfdes
at Philadelphia.

The Philadelphia Inquirer gives the fol.
lowing account of this monster vessel:
Wednesday next, May 9TH, is the day
fixed for the launch of the Ironsides, at the
yard of Messrs. Cramp & Son +; circum-
stances may, however, delay the event till
few days later. The first steak +" or
band of the iron plating is now laid on, and
the second one started. These g streaks -
are twenty eight inches broad. They com.
mence four feet below the water line. On
the bows and stern the planting will be
three /" streaks," or seven feet broad. Amid.
ships, as far as the port holes extend, they
will reach from below the water line to the
bulwarks, and eight "streaks" broad.
These are laid on at the rate of one in four.
teen days. The launch, however, will not
be delayed for this. The ram consists of a
continuation of the two lowest "streaks F"
meeting from the two sides of the bow,
bolted together, ard projecting beyond it
four feet ten inches.
Its dimensions are thus, in height fifty-six
inches, thickness, nine inches, and length
four feet ten inches. There are three hum
dred and sixty men now engaged upon her.
This vessel, when launched, will be the larg.
est armed Government vessel aaoat. She
has larger tonnage than the ship of the
line Pennsylvania. She will draw fifteen
feet of water, with ten days. fuel and her
full armament on board. Her beam is
much greater than the usual proportion in
war vessels. While having the capability
of a sea-going vessel, che is more especially
adapted for coast and harbor defence.
One-half of the iron-plating is being man.
ufactured in Bristol, Pennsylvania, and the
other half in Pittsburg. The aggregate
weight of the plates will be seven hundred
and fifty tons.
