KennicUtt, of the 39th Illinois, were sent out
with their companies to check their progress
A squad OF their cavalry soon appeared and
were fired into by our men. Nine were
hurled from their horses, while three escaped
to halt their approaching forces. The enemy
soon gained commanding position and
began to shell our men, whom Col. Osborn
ordered to retreat across the Potomac, after
he discovered the great strength of the enemy
opposing him. Capt Russell, with the re-
naming portion of his company and sixty
infantry from the Goth, had made recon-
noisance from Alpine that day, in the vicinity
of Sleepy Creek, and discovered large rebel
camp. He returned, however, in time to re-
treat with our other forces. In crossing the
river one member of the Saith was Tossed.
1t will be seen, therefore, that the report
which represents the popular Captain as
having led "two regiments of infantry" out
to engage the enemy, ETC., is not correct.
Doubtless, however, the Captain has piety,
pluck, and patriotism enough to accomplish
such brilliant feat if an opportunity were
presented. o. J.. NJ.

It is true that some one, or perhaps more

tardy or slow in not coming upon the upper

Of caution may not be amiss, especially as
it is supposed by many to be entirely harm

sons who have used it in a careless manner,

escapes they have made. Not only is coal
oil exceedingly dangerous, but the cheap
preparations sold under that name, adhlter,

more explosive aud dangerous than oam'
