Rebel Fare.
Sergeant H. Gardner, of Hardwick, a
member of the 18th Vt. regiment, has arriv-
ed home. In charge at Gettysburg, he
with eleven companions, were taken priso-
ners. When the rebels commenced their re-
treat they were abandoned without parole.
Gardner says the only food given them by
the rebels was meal and water, and he saw
none other given 10 rebel soldiers. The
above we condense from the Freeman.

many important captures, among them beng
some thirty rebel officers, portion OF whom

Law the enemy's statement. that all the offica re-
and crew OF the Harriet Lane had peri he'd
save some ten or fifteen persons; whereas there
wounded. take it for granted that of the nine
slightly wounded the grt alter part amounted TO
nothing, so that the testimony OF the rebel pilot
was very near the truth when he said five
killed and six or eight wounded
can net think but that for the death Of C5m
Wainwright and Lieut.. Com. Lee, the vessel
could not have been captured. 1t is difficult,
however, TO conceive a more pusilianInous
