Fight Near Sharpsburg.

NEW YORK, July ia Hagerstowr
despatch of the 11th to the Herald says
A fight commenced near Sharpsburs
yesterday at daybreak, and continued til
6o'clock in the evening. when Longstreet's
division evinced confusion and our army
drove them some miles.
The engagement was brought ON by
Fitzpatrick, who, finding the enemy toe
strong, waited for infantry.
The battle was fought by only portion
of our army.
The rebels fought steadily at first, but
wildly at last, as if their ammunition was
exhausted.
Our cavalry and artillery destroyed a
pontoon bridge, to the CONSERVATION OF
the rebels, as they were about to cross.
The rebels evacuated this town at mid
night. Lee, Longstreet and Ewell being
last rebel officers to leave
l have reliable information that the reb-
els retreated to Williamsport where they
hope to make another stand. There have
been several slight skirmishes, on the
Antictam. Gen. COUGHS forces are ad-
yaneing.
A Middletown despatch to the Herald
says from information by person who has
been in the rebel lines at Funkstown,
states that. the rebels were then tearing
the houses to pieces to construct poutoons
The rebel soldiers express little hope OF
crossing the Potomac. They were anxious
about their supplies, not having seen their
trains for five days and were disheartened
A Harrisburg special states that Antie-
tam river is much swollen. which proba-
bly, has delayed Meade in attacking the
rebels. Our army is more concentrated
and stronger than when at Gettysburg.
A headquarters dispatch of the 10th,
to the Herald, says, our army is within a
few miles ofthe enemy
The Herald states that important mill
tary movements are in progress which in
dicate the pulley of the government to fol-
low up vigorously our.successes and drive
the rebellion to the wall.
Our government has notified the rebels
that the execution of the two officers sem
fenced at Richmond will be retaliated
most severely. lass
The New York Mercury has Washing
ton dispatch intimating that Lee has csca-
ped across the Potomac
NOTE. At l O'Clock A. NJ. an inter
ruption occurred in the lines, and conse-
quertly the report is unfinished.

| HEADQUARTERS ARMY OF THE PoTo
IsfAc, iJuly4, 6 A. M.-The enemy's guns
lopened on our left wing at daylight, ap-
Iparently to feel7our position, but soon
suspended operations. They also en-
Idesyored to pssh forward their front on
Jour right, but were driven back with
itoss.
/ NINE O'oLocK, "A. M--An hour ago
the enemy made strong infantry attack
lon our right and endeavored to break our
line. The 18th corps, which formed our
right, steadily drove them back for half
an hour, when the enemy was reinforced,
and portion of the 9th corps was sent to
its support. Failing in this the enemy
opened cannonade all along the line.
The attack on the right is believed to
have been feint to cover more formida-
BILE flank movement on the left The
cannonading isenow heavy in that direc-
ton and appears to be extending.
The 3D. corps suffered greatly yesterday.
The number of wounded is heavy, with a
large number of officers.
No estimate can be formed of the killed
and wounded at this writing. Heavy
Imusketry has opened now on our right
again, and the eanonading on our left is
slackening. The enemy is fighting with
the greatest desperation. Nothing can
sgrpass the vigor and precision of our ar
tillery yesterday. The rebels took two
of our gnAs, for want of horses and infan-
try support, but the division Humphrey
l think rallied aud recaptured them We
took one gun from the enemy. Compara-
lively few prisoners have been taken on1
either side. up to this hour.
PHILADELPHIA, July 4.-The Inquirer
has special dispatch from the army of
the Potomac dated two o'clock this NOR
ming. 1t says that Fred. Taylor, brother
of Bayard Taylor, was killed. General
Hancock was shot through the groin
General Gibbons was badly wounded
We drove the enemy yesterday a mile and
fifteen hundred more prisoners. |
The world never saw such fighting. The |
rebel loss is estimated at forty thousand. |
Everything looks encouraging.
Baltimore, July 4.--Reports deemed |
reliable from the battle field, down to six
o'clock last evening, represent that the
rebelsw repeatedly repulsed with fear
ful slaughter. The battle lasted all day
One thousand prisoners were taken
