The thir.y-tourth Massachusetts regiment
was under fire, for the first time, a few days
since, in fight with the rebels under limbo
den, near Harpers Ferry. A letter Just re-
ceived from Harper's Ferry states that a pre-
vious report of the appearance of Imboden,
in that vicinity, was incorrect; but the writer
adds the following in postscript
"Since writing the above, Imboden has
come in earnest lie came Sunday morning,
with 1900 to 1000 men, consisting of Whites
cavalry, the cd Virginia rebel mounted in.
fantry, the 18th Virginia rebel cavalry, Gil
morc's battalion and a full battery (siX peces)
Ofartiilery. He surrounded the 9th Maryland
regiment at CharlestOwn. They made no
fight, and soon surrendered. As soon as Col.
Wells, of the Massachusetts 34th, heard of
this, he started out with Coles cavalry, Mi
ner's battery, and the 34th Massachus etts less
than six hundred men in all. This force
struck the enemy at Charlestown within half
an hour after the surrender of the Maryland
ers, and before the rebels had time to do much
in the way ofplundcr. Col. Wells drove In
boden's force through the town, and for ten
miles towards Berryville, the enemy fighting
all the way, with infantry, cavalry, and artil-
lery.
During this running fight we drove the
rebels so fast that the 10th Maryland regi-
ment could not keep up with US. About two
miles this side OF Berryville we deSsted from
the pursuit, in compliance with an order from
Gen. Sullivan. We then took the back track
reaching Harpers Ferry without single
straggler. The 34th marched thiriy-f five
miles in fifteen hours, ten miles of which was
constant fighting; and they are fresh to-day
as ever. They unanswered under fire, de.
ployed, formed line, changed front, &C., just
as steadily as on drill. They were not even
e1cited. Company T was out diminishing,
and was charged on by about 200 cavalry
They made the rally by company" and drove
tine cavalry back howling, dropping six of
them as they went Lieut. Cobb was badly
wounded; corporals Gage and Clark were
killed. and Some six or eight privates were
wounded The cavalry and artillery did
splendidly, and the 34th was worthy of itself
''Our colors were well riddled with bullets,
and Corporal Gage was killed while hearing
the state flag. This day showed the practical
use OF all the drill and discipline, which some
people have affected to sneer at. Not man
could be seen who was not in his place and
doing just what he was ordered to do; and all
without the least hurry or excitement, al
though under fire for the first time, and fire
which, some of the time, was very close and
hot. The marching was unparalleled. l
have never seen anything to equal it, and do
not know Of any such march on record"

defeated, he himself would, as commander-in.
chief assume the responsibility.
The work Of apportioningl the number
of troops to be raised under the last call of the
president among the several states and the
District OF Columbia has been begun at the of.
fee Of the provost marshal general. The
states thus far apportioned and the number of
men to be raised by each is as follows -
Maine, 1881; New Hampshire, 376S; YER

MIsDIRECTED "EETERPRIsE." - The zeal
with which certain Washington correspon-
dents are grubbing for the motives of General
koseeFans' removal is simply indecent. The
tribune set the example by publishing in the
same Issue that announced the removal as
many street rumors touching Gen. Rosecrans'
personal habits and character as could he in
an evening collected together, and the Times
of the next day follows up the charge with
new lot of specifications, in which the nro.
sumption is that there is not a shadow Of
truth. To-day some other correspondent
will probably come to their support, charging
Rosecrans with DeQuincey's gamut of offences
murder, highway robbery, Sabbath break
ing, and procrastination !-oR the seven cardi-
nal sins. We trust our readers will put no
faith in such inventions against an officer who

DEATH BY ACCIDENTAL SHOoTING.-JesSe
member of the 96th regiment, came to his
death by his own hand at his residence on
Palmer street, in this city, Thursday fore
noon about half past eleven o'clock. When
found he lay on his face, in his chamber,
with pistol, cartridges, and tools for
fixing the pistol, by his side. The
ball entered his head just over his
right eye. Coroner j. b. Sibley was
called to view the body, but deemed
the cause of death SO plain as to demand
no jury of inquest. The pistol was one
which had been loaned to him by fellow
soldier, still in the war, to keep it in order.
Deceased was out trying it on Wednesday,
and when he came in he said he had got to
fix it before it could be used again.
Just before the accident his wife had
left the room, where he was endeav-
oring to put the pistol in order with
the tools, and he said he was coming
right down to go into the field TO try it
Those below heard the report of the pistol,
and the sound OF fall upon the floor, and on
going up stairs found him lying as stated. 1t
appeared to be a clear case of accidental
shooting. Deceased was forty-two years of
age, and left wife and four children. He
left his regiment in March last, having been
discharged on account of ill health.

CITY AND COUNTY.

The FAIR.-The gratifying and astonishing
from other towns in the county came in yes
terday in large numbers, evincng their inter-
est in the enterprise which is to rebound to
the credit of the whole county. During the
afternoon the hall was full, and in the evening
it was again crowded. Wewoud recommend
all who can visit it in the day time, to do SO,
for then they will have better opportunity to
examine the articles in detail, and make pur-
chases. We fancy that the managers will
regret that the fair must necessarily close
this evening. The spirit Of the people would
give it longer support, but close it must.
All the departments prosper. At the ice
cream table more than forty gallons were sold
yesterday, and the rush to the dinner and
supper tables was incessant The curiosity
room well repays visit; the rebel torpedo
exhibited there was contributed by Miss Clara
Barton. The tableaux to be given this evening
will prove great attraction, and with con-
tinuance OF the liberal patronage thus far ex-
aid OF the good cause for which the fair is
held
The efforts of the managers to provide for
the entertainment of all visitors, have been
quite successful, and reflect credit upon their
patience, industry and discretion. The in
convenience attending all crowded gather
ings, which no human foresight could avoid,
was the only one exciting remark, and that
one was borne with the utmost good nature.
To-day (Friday) the fair will be opened
at TEN O'CLOCK and close at HALF PAST FIVE,
P. NJ, when it will be necessary to clear the
tables and prepare the hall for the evening
entertainment. The doors will be open for
the evening at seven o'clock, and the tableaux
will commence at HALF PAST sLvEN.
The committee of arrangements have de-
voted much care and expense to the prepare
tion of the tableaux and find it necessary to
increase the admission to twenty five cents in
order that they may bear their just proportion
to the object of the fair. Fair tickets at the
lower prices will be taken at their par value
toward the purchase of twenty-five cent
tickets.
Dinner will be served up at the refresh
ment rooms in the hall, from twelve till two
P. NJ, and from six till ten this cvening-ad-
mission to the refreshmcnt rooms being by
side doors during the hour the hail is closed.
