So wonderful inuniform propriety has

One fellow fred at the officer, but missed

HEADQUARTERS ARMY OF THR POTOMAC,
M. 3D.-The utmost niet prevailed along the
l. IS for several days past until yesterday af-
tecHoon, when our batteries at Fort He'll opened
fr'- for the entertainment OF some En- lish WIS.,
itrrs. The enemy at first did not reply, but
st'er short time they opened from several
p uts. and for a time perfect shower of shot
/; shell fell in and around Fort He'll. IN
f. runately just at this time some of the troops
0" duty in the vicinity were being relieved,
a ii several casualties occurred, among which
8 the WouEding of 1t Col. Stafford, of the
sthh New York Vols, who 1t is said cannot re-
c.. ser.
Toward dark the artillery firing ceased, but
T. pickets kept up their exchanges all
light. To- night they are briskly engaged in
tie same vicinity.
Deserters continue to come into our lines
daily, all seeming heartily tired of the war,
telling of the discomfort and decentralization
prevailing In their ranks, and expressing their
belief in the speedy disruption of the Confed-
eracy.
Gov. Bradford, of Md, accompanied by
number of prominent citizens OF that State,
