The Times army Of the Potomac dispatch Of
the 9th, says the rebels continue to be demon
strative in our front. Yesterday, as the 9th and
9Th New York cavalry were going out near Beal-
ton Station to relieve the pckets, they were
opened on by the rebels with artillery. A brisk
skiEmish ensued, lasting several hours our forces
falling back within one mile of Germantown,
upon our infantry line. There were few casual
ties on either side
Guerrillas and bushwhackers are exceedingly
bold, and their operations extend in every direc-
ton. 1t is unsafe for men to venture out OF
camp.
From other sources we learn the smoke of the
rebel camps can be seen beyond the Rappahan-
mock indicating that they are there In force,
prepared to dispute the passage of the river or
the construction OF the Railroad bridges. A
body of their infantry has been discovered on
this side of the river at Sulphur Springs. Their
cavalry pickets are thrown out this side OF the
Rappahannock, and are in sight of our advanced
pickets. There are no indications of an imme-
diate advance movement. Work on the Rail.
road is being prosecuted vigorously, the advance
of the army being dependent on this road.
The 1r,bunes Washington dispatch says that
persons who arrived from the army tonight say
that column of rebel infantry, which occupied
40 minutes IN passing given point, crossed the
Rappahannock at Rappahannock Station yester
day at dark. The 9th corps were ordered tc
hold them in check il possible. L, was reported
to-day in the army that our cavalry had beer
soundly whipped. 1t is also stated that the reb
els are in force about Stafford Court house
Heavy and rapid firing was heard to-day at Bris
tow Station. in the direction of Centreville, last
ing too long for practice firing. There was q
report in town that Gen. Meade was retreatine
again.

~. l., tnere now lives, ana mas llVed 1Or
several years past, worthy clergyman
"a man, however, very short in stature.
Upon certain Sunday, about eight
years ago, this clergyman was invited
by the pastor of church in that village
to fill his pulpit for the day. The invi-
tation was accepted, and Sunday morn
ing saw Mr. - in the pulpit. Now, it
happened that the pulpit was a very high
one, and accordingly nearly hid the poor
little clergyman from view. However,
the congregation, out of respect, mar
aged to keep their countenances, and,
with over-pious faces, seemed religiously
anxious for the text They were not
obliged to wait long, for nose and two
little eyes suddenly appeared over the
top of the pulpit, and squeaking, trem-
ulous voice proclaimed in nasal tones
the text:
"Be of good cheer; it is I-be not
afraid"
A general roar of laughter followed
the announcement-the clergyman be-
came confused, and turned all sorts of
colors. Many in the general uproar
left the church; and it was long time
before the minister was enabled to pro-
coed with the sermon so abruptly broken
off.
Afternoon came, and the little man,
standing on a footstool, had fair view
of his audience. The text was announced
"A little while ye shall see me, and
again little while and ye shall not see
me-"
In the course of his sermon he repeat
ed his text with great earnestness, and
stepping back, lost his elevated footing
and disappeared from his hearers! The
effect may be more readily imagined
than described.
BST A Frenchman stopped lad in
the street to make some inquiries of his
whereabouts.

WIT AND SENTIMENT
GA little nonsense now and then,
Is relished by the wisest men.'s

D1- By the following extract from
the letter of an officer in the BIRD New
York Regiment, it will be seen that the
grayer circumstances of war are min
gled with POPULARITY. He refers to scenes
that occurred shortly after the battle of
Antietam:
Over six hundred wounded and dying
men are within call of me, in and around
the barn. Those brought in last from
the field are suffering fearfully and dying
rapidly. Many are undergoing amputa-
tons Of arms and legs, some bearing it
most heroically, others indicating by
their cries acute agony.
There is tone Of hilarity incident to
all this, for there is singing, whistling
and joking almost constantly. l will
give a sort of resume: One of the 18th
Massachusetts,, badly wounded, calls out
to another, "Halloa Billy, is that you p
Eyes" "HOw did they cut your col
not bad; goin' to have my leg chopped
off in the mornin'; did they hurt you
muchY mo; left arm shattered to the
devil, that's all. !" One poor fellow tries
to limp few steps, and is greeted with
the precaution in the first lessons of the
manual, viz: LEFT, left, leftp'-that is,
left foot first, &C. A man was brought
in wounded in both legs-helpless, of
course As they laid him down he kept
repeating, "Thats bully. That's old
persimmonsl Thank you'll You have
fixed me up nicely Regular old pam
cakesp This morning both legs are of,
he having laid on the battle field for
three days; but he is as jovial as ever
One of my Sergeants was wounded by a
ball on the thigh. When told that the
ball could not be extracted, he said ::
"Well, that is good way to carry it
along, as a relic, home; can always have
it in the family"

The devotion of the people to Mr.. Val
