Especial te the Herald.


HARRISBURG, July 1.-The battle at
Gettysburg to-day was fierce and bloody.
From all can gather the rebellion has
received its mortal wound.
Cannon, small arms and the field are
among the trophies.
A column of $4,000 rebels passed
through pittsburgh yesterday in the direc-
ton of Gettysburg.
a gentleman connected with the press
who arrived here last evening from the
front, represents the condition of affairs
at the close of the fight on Wednesday
evening to have been still more favora-
BILE, and more promising of successful
issue than previous information received
He states that the rebels had held Get
tysburg for some time previous to the
approach of our army and had not only
occupied, but had commenced fortifying
the hills west of the town, where they
prepared to check our advance.
The night closed in by our army hold
ing the position chosen by the enemy to
give us battle.
Gen. Meade had come up with the
main body and was ready to push the
enemy as soon as the day dawned.
Gettysburg is Is miles east of Cham
bersburg, over a fine rolling country
most of the way, which will doubtless be
the scene of this great battle of the re-
bellion.
Heavy skirmishing had been going on
all the morning which resulted in heavy
losses to the enemy.
In these skirmishes which were con-
Quoted under the direction of General
Meade our arms were entirely successful.
The enemy studiously avoided any gen,
eral engagement, and it was thought
there would be none before to-day, when
it was the intention of Gen. Meade to
press the enemy along their whole line.
The enemy was rapidly concentrating
troops yesterday, and Gen. Meade's whole
army had reached the field of battle.
General Couch was expected to force
down through the Cumberland valleys
on the enemy.
Among the prisoners are Gen. Archer
and 20 other officers.

from Major Burngerton and other officers
of Gen Reynolds, staff, the Following in
teresting particulars of the battle near
Gettysburg, and am happy to say, it
closed for the day, with the army of Gen.
Meade in a most advantageous position
for either attack or defense. At 80 clock
Wednesday morning the lst and 18th
Army corps reached Gettysburg entering
from the east side of the town and march
} ed directly through to the West side; the
cavalry force of the enemy, in the town
galloped back as we advanced. On going
out OF the West end of the town the enc
nv was observed advancing from the
Chambersburg TURNPIKE, in line ofbattle
towards the town, evidently endeavoring
to find out advantageous position
commanding the town.
The lst corps, under Gen. Reynolds,
which was in the advance, pushed for
ward at double quick to secure the adj
vantageous pc ion.
The enemy under Longstreet and Hill
advanced their left and in few minutes
heavy fire of both artillery and musket-
ry opened all along the whole Federal
line. The 18th army corps, also was
heaFSsVo0s.;1 80 c,,d for time quite a
Several charges were made by the enc
my to dislodge our forces, all of which
were unsuccessful.
At 5 clock the enemy moved his en-
tire force, and endeavored to turn oul
right wing.
Reynolds advanced to meet them ant
heavy infantry fight ensued, in which
both suffered heavily, volley after volle,
of musketry being poured into the op
posing columns with deadly effect Tit
field between the contending armies wa
strewn with dead and wounded
The enemy suffered fully as heavy a
we, though it is not known what wa
their loss in officers. The effort to fanl
our right wing entirely failed, and W
held the prominet and commanding
position for which the struggle was made
at the close of the fight, which ceased fo
the day about p. m. A great decisive
battle is considered imminent, and, not
outstanding our severe loss in officers
the advantages of the day were regarde
as decidedly with our forces.
The army was in fine condition, full c
enthusiasm for the coming battle an
confident of success
