we believe that the records of telegraphing
do not contain go singular case Of imperfect
insulation as one that has Just occurred between
Troy and Waterford. Daring the past week
the Saratoga line worked very badly. Although
communication was not interrupted, it was
almost impossible to send message
the amount Of mechanical labor being rather
more than the amount received for the
dispatch. The point of the break was found to
be between Troy and Waterf0rd-communica-
ton being all right above the latter place
Mr. Buel, manager Of the Troy Office, deter
mined to trace out the difficulty; so he started
IN hand car from Green Island and made
thorough reconnaissance of the line, by the side
Of the track, as far as the Waterford Office
Within stones throw of the latter place the
cause Of the trouble was detected. The wire
passed through the branches OF a tree, and in
one spot the glass insulation had been rubbed
off-exposing the metal to contact with the
wood. This Of itself, would not have made any
trouble; but, Just above the point where the
wire touched the branch, a worm, known as a
borer,' had commenced operation and deposit
ed the pieces Of bark that he bored from the tree
in small pile on the iron, completely burying
it, and forming very nice connection with the
ground. On removing the trophies of this
bore the line worked in the best possible
manner. The question naturally arises-was
the telegraph ever before troubled with worms -

A dispatch to the Baltimore American da-
ed Willamsport l4th says:
telegraphed you from Boonsboro this
morning that the rebels were retresting and
would probably escape across the river. Our
army was under orders to move at daylight
that morning. II moved only TO find no en-
envy in front of it. If allowed the advance
down to this place and a cleaner clearing out
than the rebels have made could not be i'm
agined. The rebels commenced their retreat
Monday morning. Their infantry crossed
principally upon pontoon bridge at Falling
Waters Their wagons and artillery cross
ed at the forls here. The river is not so
high as reported. The people at Williams
port say that the rebels dreaded an attack
yesterday. as part Of their force was already
aerOss the river. The rebel fortihcations IN
front of here are no more than temporary
affairs, AMI a. their line was long they could
easily have been carried by assault We
waited just one day too long There was
some artillery firing at Falling Waters. and
it is reported that come 100 prisoners have
been taken.

An English woman of open and fearless tenn

or squeamishness Of feeling from opening her
eyes to the enormities which filed the land
with wlckedness and woe, or from relating
to others what she saw and heard and felt.

STILL ANOTHER ACCOUNT.

At length we are beginning to receive
something Ineligible with reference to the
great battles in Pennsylvania, perhaps the
most bloody and stubbornly contested of the
whole war
On Wednesday, the fighting was in the
immediate vicinity and around the town of
Gettysburg, and resulted in the enemy being
driven one mile and half beyond that place.
During the day our forces captured 1900
prisoners, all of tchom ,cere pdrOled, rath-
er than hare the army eRcumbered ,rIth
them trhiie the battles irere IN progress.
Their loss in killed and wounded was also
very heavy Our loss in this days fighting
was estimated at from 600 to 500 killed
wounded and missing. During this engage
ment the corps of Gen. Hill and the division
of Maj. Gen. Pender were principally engaged.
On the next day thursday Gems. Ewell
and Longstreet engaged the enemy on the
right and left, the line of battle exttnding
two miles and half on each wing. The
enemy were driven back, with loss eOmIar-
atively small on our side, until their army
was concentrated ON commanding hill, two
miles beyond the town. This hill was forth
fed by a stone fence. over and against which
dirt had been thrown, constituting a iOrmid-
able breast-wOrk. After they had been
driven back to this position the fighting for
the day was discontinued.
On Friday skirmishing was commenced
between and , O'Clock il the day-Hill's
corps and Heth's division being principally
engaged. They reached the intrenchments,
as did also the division of Gen Pickett. AZ
ter the enemy's works were carried, there
was heavy fighting within the intrenehments;
but the overpOwering masses Of the enemy
compelled our forces to retire. The Yankee
batteries were concentrated on a commanding
hill, in the shape of half moon, and
our troops in charging them had 10 advance
through an open fire from the batteries post
ed as above described. Our loss here Iras
heary, and our forces, after the most deSPer-
ate fighting, tcere forced 10 fall 'dck bcyoad
the range of the IRE. In this fight oar
heavy reserves we're not engaged.
In The irhOle three days fighting ,ce lost
but f,ro pieces Of cannon and these trere abai-
doned because Of The destruction Of thar
Carriages.
Maj-Gen. PICKETT is represented to have
been deeply affected by the loss Of 50 many
of his gallant officers, and it is said that he
wept bitterly over the mutilation of his no.

times as many as twenty or thirty at shot.
This force was advancing u column o.. bat
talions, and in attempting to change their
position, by marching by the right, was.
thrown into such confusion by the seath-
ing fre. of our artillery that the slaughter
was still more terrible. They never rallied,
and their five rcgimental flags were scattered
all about in the crurd. This demonstration
on the offensive being dispersed, cur infantry
continued their advance upon the wOrks-
When within about seventy-fve yards they
opened fire, and charged on the force defend

of them were killed in running forward t.
surrender, our men not understanding the
meaning Of the manOeuvre. The COnfederates
captured the works, but so few of them passed
through the deadly fire that not enough got
inside to hold them against the large force Of
Yankees that advanced to retake them.
Seven Confederate flags were planted on
the stone fence, but there not being enough
men to support them, they ,cere captured bY

ANOTHER ACCOUNT.
Another account. which is derived FROM
young and gallant officer of the First NirSi-
MIA infantry, states that the fighting on Fri
day was opened by artillery along the whole
line, between | and clock, the firing con
tinuing for two or three hours. During this
artillery duel the division Of Gen. PICKE1T
was drawn up in line in the immediate rear
of our batteries. When the firing Of can-
non ceased, the order for the infantry to adj
vance was given, which was done at commln
time-no dOuble-quicking or cheering. but
solemnly and steadily there veterans direct
ed their steps towards the heavy and cont
pact columns of the enemy. The sklrmlsh-
ers were at once engaged, the enemy having
double line of skirmishcrs to oppose our
single line. The enemy were driven from
their position behind stone fence, over
which intrenchments had been thrown up.
and our forces occupied their position about
twenty minutes About this time flank
ing party of the enemy, marching in column
by regiments, was thrown out from the enc
my's left on our extreme right, which was
held by RENTERS brigade, and by an entilad-
ing fire forced the retirement of our troop.
This flanking party was very soon dispersed
by our artillery, with immense los, and
scattered in confusion and disorder. With
their repulse the heavy fighting of the day
terminated
