Military matters do not seem to work very
smoothly at Martinsburg. Courts.martial af-
ford the most popular amusement for officers,
who seem to be more engaged with their own
personal quarrcls than ready to serve their
country. A court-msrtial is now In session for
the trial of Major Alonzo W. Adams, Of the
LIST New York cavalry, on charges of cowardlce
and making improper use Of forage. u. ''.
The President has ordered an Investigation
In the case o; Capt. d. II. Harkins, Of the same
regiment and formerly an actor, and well
known in New York. This officer Is charged
with proposing to surrender his command to
the enemy while on the retreat from the Chick
ahominy, last year; and also with abandoning
his command during the aght under Genera
Milroy, in the Shenandoah Valley, In June
There are also several other officers to be trlet
by the court now sitting at Msrtinsburg. 4

The enemy has at last broken his long 81

opened heavily with his Parrot guns from
Gadberry Hill on Sumter. Those who watched
the bombardment throughout the afternoon
say that the Yankees threw their shot with con.
siderable general accuracy; but In the course
of half hour, during which we, from good
standpoint, observed the fire, We saw but two
shots out Of six strike tic fort. One exploded
on the northwestern parapet, and the other fell
within.
The bombardment ceased about nghtfall.
Our batteries were, as usual, not idle. Fort
